SMITH, Circuit Judge: \n The plaintiffs are seven same-sex couples and an organization whose \nmembership includes same-sex couples and their families. The couples seek to \nmarry in Louisiana or to have their marriage in another state recognized in \nLouisiana. They sued the state defendants for declaratory and injunctive \nrelief, asking the district court to declare unconstitutional article XII, § 15 of \nthe Louisiana Constitution, article 3520(B) of th e Louisiana Civil Code, and \nany other Louisiana law that prohibits same-sex couples from marrying in Lou-\nisiana or having their marriages recognized. The various plaintiffs claimed Case: 14-31037 Document: 00513102238 Page: 2 Date Filed: 07/01/2015 No. 14- 31037 \n3 \n violations of the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the Fourteenth \nAmendment, the Full Faith and Credit Clause, and 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The \nactions were consolidated. \n On September 3, 2014, the district court, without the benefit of subse-\nquent controlling Supreme Court precedent, granted defendants’ motion for \nsummary judg ment and denied plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment. The \nplaintiffs appealed. After full briefing, including participation by numer ous \namici curiae, this court heard expanded oral argument on January 9, 2015. \n While this appeal was u nder submission, the Supreme Court decided \nObergefell v. Hodges , No. 14-556, 2015 U.S. LEXIS 4250 (U.S. June 26, 2015). \nIn summary, the Court declared that \nthe right to marry is a fundamental right inherent in the liberty of the \nperson, and under the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the \nFourteenth Amendment couples of the same-sex may not be deprived of \nthat right and that liberty. The Court now holds that same- sex couples \nmay exercise the fundamental right to marry. No longer may this lib-\nerty be denied to them. Baker v. Nelson [, 409 U.S. 810 (1972),] must \nbe and now is overruled, and the State laws challenged by petitioners \nin these cases are now held invalid to the extent they exclude same-sex \ncouples from civil marriage on the same terms and conditions as \nopposite- sex couples. \nId. at *41 –42. “It follows that the Court must also hold—and it now does hold—\nthat there is no lawful basis for a State to refuse to recognize a lawful same-\nsex marriage performed in another State on the ground of its same-sex \ncharacter.” Id. at *50. \n Having addressed fundamental rights under the Fourteenth Amend-\nment, the Court, importantly, invoked the First Amendment, as well: \n Finally, it must be emphasized that religions, and those who adhere \nto religious doctrines, may continue to advocate with utmost, sincere conviction that, by divine precepts, same-sex marriage should not be \ncondoned. The First Amendment ensures that religious organizations Case: 14-31037 Document: 00513102238 Page: 3 Date Filed: 07/01/2015 No. 14- 31037 \n4 \n and persons are given proper protection as they seek to teach the \nprinciples that are so fulfilling and so central to their lives and faiths, and to their own deep aspirations to continue the family structure they \nhave long revered. The same is true of those who oppose same-sex \nmarriage for other reasons. In turn, those who believe allowing same-\nsex mar riage is proper or indeed essential, whether as a matter of \nreligious con viction or secular belief, may engage those who disagree \nwith their view in an open and searching debate. The Constitution, however, does not permit the State to bar same-sex couples from \nmarriage on the same terms as accorded to couples of the opposite sex. \nId. at *48– 49. \n Obergefell, in both its Fourteent h and First Amendment iterations, is the \nlaw of the land and, consequently, the law of this circuit\n1 and should not be \ntaken lightly by actors within the jurisdiction of this court. We express no view \non how controversies involving the intersection of these rights should be \nresolved but instead leave that to the robust operation of our system of laws \nand the good faith of those who are impacted by them. \n This court sought and promptly received letter advisories from plaintiffs \nand the state, asking their respective positions on the proper disposition in \nlight of Obergefell. They are agreed that the judgment should be reversed and \nremanded for entry of judgment in favor of plaintiffs. \n Because this court agrees that that is the required result, the judgme nt \nappealed from is REVERSED, and this matter is REMANDED for entry of judgment in favor of the plaintiffs. The district court must act expeditiously \non remand, especially in view of the declining health of plaintiff Robert Welles. \n \n1 If it were suggested that any part of the quoted passages is o biter dictum , we need \nonly recall that although “[w]e are not bound by dicta, even of our own court [,] [d]icta of the \nSupreme Court are, of course, another matter.” United States v. Becton , 632 F.2d 1294, \n1296 n.3 (5th Cir. 1980). “[W]e give serious consideration to this recent and detailed discus -\nsion of the law by a majority of the Supreme Court.” Geralds v. Entergy Servs., Inc. , 709 F.3d \n448, 452 (5th Cir. 2013) (Reavley, J.). Case: 14-31037 Document: 00513102238 Page: 4 Date Filed: 07/01/2015 No. 14- 31037 \n5 \n The court should enter final judgment on the merits (exclusive of any collateral \nmatters such as costs and attorney fees) by July 17, 2015, and earlier if reason-\nably possible.2 \n The mandate shall issue forthwith. \n \n \n \n2 Any pe nding motions are denied as moot.

{ "pdf_file": "R5O7UJD4YJERUYUP6XKJR6SA6ZJRA4AG.pdf", "text": "AZCOMAECOM\n1194 Pacific Street\nSuite 204\nSan Luis Obispo CA 93401\nwww.aecom.com805 542 9840\n805 542 9990tel\nfax\nAlelia Parenteau\nEnergy Analyst\nCity of Santa Barbara\n620 Laguna Street\nSanta Barbara, CA 93101\n5/27/10\nBudget Revision Request 2 - El Estero WWTF FOG Pilot Project\nOn February 17, 2010, City Council authorized AECOM to proceed with the design of a pilot Fats Oil\nand Grease (FOG) receiving, handling, and injection station at the El Estero Wastewater Treatment\nPlant (WWTP). Our approved scope includes plans and technical specifications for the site piping,\npumping, storage vessel, and local controls of the receiving and delivery system. We are also\ncontracted to provide limited construction phase support.\nCity staff has requested AECOM to include additional project features and engineering tasks to our\napproved scope of work. The additional scope items requested are:\n1. Design of a containment area surrounding the FOG processing area\n2. Site drain to Cul-de-sac drain\nThrough our discussions with City staff, we have developed the following understanding of the\nrequested modifications to our Scope of Work.\nAdditional Task Item 1 - FOG Containment Facilities\nAECOM will provide construction plans and specifications for a containment wall surrounding\nthe FOG processing area. Preliminary estimates indicate a concrete wall (25' x 25' x 3' high) will\nbe required to contain 150% of the volume of the FOG storage tank. The design will include\nstairs with a handrail to access the containment area, and the containment area will feature\nconcrete flatwork within the entire contained area. Flatwork will be sloped to a sump. The\nsump will be connected to a manually operated valve to allow periodic draining of collected\nwater to the cul-de-sac drain (see item 2 below). As discussed, pumps will be located within the\ncontained area. Truck offload equipment (rock trap, hose connection, etc.) will be located\noutside the containment area. Per Staff request, our design will not feature a roof structure.\nWe have reviewed record drawing information provided by City staff and have not identified any\nconflict with existing utilities in the area of the proposed containment area. We assume that no\nsuch conflicts exist. The construction contractor will be responsible to identify and mitigate any\nconflicts identified during construction.\nAdditional Task Item 2 - Drainage Facilities\nAECOM will provide construction plans and specifications for a gravity drain connection\n(assumed 6 inch) between the proposed containment area and the existing cul-de-sac drain. We\nwill also connect the proposed FOG rock trap to the new drain to facilitate maintenance of the\nscreen. Seal water from the positive displacement pumps will also be directed to the drain.\n ATTACHMENT\n \n1 AICOM\nWe have assumed that adequate fall exists between the proposed containment area and the\nexisting drain, and that no conflicts exist along the alignment. Through discussions with plant\nstaff and our preliminary review of existing record drawings, we assume that the nearby utilities\n(such as the plant outfall line) are adequately deep as to not impact the design of the proposed\ndrain line.\nWe have budgeted 6 hours of time to further review existing as-built drawings to evaluate\nconflicts and determine grade lines such as inverts at the existing cul-de-sac drain. If adequate\ncover does not exist over the proposed drain line, a slurry trench may be recommended.\nAdditional Task Item 3 - Requested Revisions to Existing Work\nTo date AECOM has performed work beyond what was approved in our original scope and\nbudget (e.g. providing a reinforced concrete slab and seismic design, and participating in\nadditional meetings and coordination efforts). We have also evaluated various revisions to the\nscope (additional digester piping, SCADA integration, and drainage improvements), analyzed\npotential impacts to project cost, and provided an opinion of cost for each potential revision.\nAdditionally, upon review of the Preliminary Design Memo (submitted April 28, 2010),\nsignificant modifications to the original scope of the project were requested by City staff. To\nincorporate these requests, AECOM must abandon some work already completed, revise other\nexisting work, and perform new work not anticipated. These tasks include:\n• Revising system layout\n• Recalculating pump system curves\n• Performing additional electrical calculations and layout\n• Performing additional CAD design work\n• Design of additional equipment pedestals\n• Providing technical specs for a different tank and appurtenances,\n• Revising cost opinions\n• Providing additional direction for controlling and programming two duplex pump\nsystems.\nTo accommodate the direction requested by City staff without eroding the approved budget for\nthe remaining work, AECOM is requesting additional budget of $4,277 to incorporate these\nrevisions. As always, work would be performed on a time-and-materials basis and will be billed\nbased on actual work performed.\nAdditional Task Item 4 - Additional Construction Phase Support\nOur approved Scope of Work includes limited construction phase support. We are currently\nauthorized to respond to four (4) RFIs, assist the City with examining bids, attend a pre-construction\nmeeting, and manage submittals. With the additional project components noted above, we are\nrequesting an increase in budget for additional submittal review and RFI response.\nWe are also authorized to be onsite for four (4) hours during the first day of field work, four (4)\nhours during one progress visit during construction, and for four (4) hours for one final visit to\nevaluate the near completed facilities. Our site visits are intended to monitor the overall\n ATTACHMENT\n \n2 AZCOM\nconstruction progress of the project and to address any major deficiencies encountered. Our\napproved scope does not include construction management or construction observation where daily\nactivities are monitored and recorded. We are therefore not requesting additional budget to\nmanage the additional construction activities. If unforeseen site conditions or quality concerns arise\nas construction proceeds, AECOM can perform additional support and site visits on an as-needed\ntime and materials basis to assist with resolving issues and developing solutions in the field. Any\nadditional services would be requested in writing for approval prior to the work being performed.\nAn hourly breakdown of these scope revisions can be seen on the attached worksheet (attached).\nBudget Summary\nExisting Approved Budget\n$64,506Budget Revision Request 2\n$21,859Revised Budget\n$86,365\nPlease sign and return the enclosed copy of this letter, thereby enabling us to perform these\nadditional services on a time and materials basis.\nThank you,City of Santa Barbara\nJoff Hanlon, PESigned:\nDate:\nTitle:\n ATTACHMENT\n \n3 Project Budget\nCity of Santa Barbara El Estero FOG Pilot Program\nBudget Revision 2\nTask Description\nAdditional Task Item 1 - FOG SDIII Containment\nPlans (1 sheet)\nspecs\nstructural engineering\nMisc. details\nSubtotal\nAdditional Task Item 2 - Drainaae Facilities\nrecord drawing review\nPlans (1 sheet)\nSpecs\nSubtotal\nTask Grouo 3 -\nRevisions to Work Already Completed\nSubtotal\nTask Grouo 4 - Additional Construction Phase Services\nRFIs and Bid Addenda\nSubmittal Review and Management\nChange Order Review and Management\nadditional record drawings\nSubtotal\nTotal\nPrincipal\n6\n6\n-\n6Personnel\nManaging Engineer\n1\n1\n2\n4\n2\n2\n4\n4\n4\n2\n4\n2\n8\n20\nAssociate Engineer\n4\n8\n8\n20\n6\n6\n8\n20\n16\n16\n4\n16\n8\n28\n84Hours\nDrafter\n12\n8\n20\n12\n12\n12\n12\n4\n4\n48\nTotal Hours\n17\n9\n6\n18\n50\n6\n20\n10\n36\n32\n32\n6\n20\n10\n4\n40\n158$\n$\n$\n$\n$\ns$$s>\n$\n$\n$\n$\n%\n$\n3>\n$\nLabor\n1,935\n1,175\n1,200\n2,190\n6,500\n750\n2,360\n1,350\n4,460\n3,960\n3,960\n850\n2,700\n1,350\n420\n5^20\n20,240$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n%\n$\n$\n$\nS>\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$Budget\nNon-Labor Fees\nAmounts shown are fee155\n94\n96\n175\n520\n60\n189\n108\n357\n317\n317\n68\n216\n108\n34\n426\n1,619$\n$\n$\n3>\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\n$\nS\n$\n$\nTotal\n2,090\n1,269\n1,296\n2,365\n7,020\n810\n2,549\n1,458\n4,817\n4,277\n4,277\n918\n2,916\n1,458\n454\n5,746\n21,859\nPersonnel Category\nPrincipal\nManaging Engineer\nAssociate Engineer\nDrafterS/HR\n$200.00\n$175.00\n$125.00\n$105.00\n5/27/2010\n ATTACHMENT\n \n4" }

The Permit regulates discharge from a \nreverse osmosis treatment system designed to desalinize well water and thereby \nprovide potable freshwater to service the needs of SPC. The source of the brackish water to be desalinized is from three deep bedrock wells on the property. The Permit \nwill allow the discharge of concentrated brackish groundwater from the reverse \nosmosis treatment system that consists of pre-filtration, reverse osmosis and ultraviolet \ndisinfection. No discharge of chemicals used in cleaning or sanitizing the pretreatment \nof feed water or coagulation treatment is allowed under the permit. The maximum daily \ndischarge permitted is three thousand (3,000) gallons per day. The discharge will exit through a pipe and diffuser into the Sakonnet River. \n From July 17, 2002 to August 20, 2002, OWR solicited public comment on the draft permit. Mary W. Johnson and John D. Karlsson (“Petitioners”) submitted \nnumerous comments and raised several issues during this phase of the permit \nprocess. Issuance of the Permit was accompanied by a response to public comments \n \n1 Under the Clean Water Act, discharges into the waters of the United States by point sources such as the \nSakonnet Point Club, Inc. must be authorized by a permit. The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination \nSystem (NPDES) is the principal permitting program of the Clean Water Act. By delegation from the \nfederal Environmental Protection Agency, Rhode Island is authorized to issue pollutant discharge permits \npursuant to its Rhode Island Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (RIPDES) permitting program. EPA RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 2 \n and the procedure for appeal of the decision. Petitioners filed separate requests for \nreview of the issuance of the Permit. A prehearing conference was conducted on February 21, 2003 and a Prehearing Conference Record and Order was issued on \nMarch 19, 2003. The Prehearing Conference Record identified stipulations of fact, \nwitnesses and exhibits offered by the parties. Petitioners were required, pursuant to the \nPrehearing Order and Rule 49 of the RIPDES Regulations, to identify each legal or \nfactual issue in dispute. Stated generally, those issues, which are the basis of this \nhearing, are as follows: \n1. Did OWR fail to meet the requirements of RIPDES Regulation \n11.02(a)(14)(i)(A) in issuing this permit? \n \n2. Did OWR fail to meet the requirements of the Rhode Island Water \nQuality Regulations 8.D.(1).(f) and (g) in issuing the permit? \n \n3. Did OWR fail to meet the antidegradation requirements set forth in Rule \n18 and the Antidegradation Implementation Policy of Appendix C of the \nWater Quality Regulations? \n \n The burden is on Petitioners to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that \nthe disputed sections of the Permit fail to meet the requirements of the Rhode Island \nPollutant Discharge Elimination System (“RIPDES”) Regulations and Water Quality Regulations (“WQR”) (collectively referred to as “Regulations”). The parties agreed on \nseveral stipulations of fact which are set forth below. \nStipulations of Fact \n1. Said permit establishes a discharge flow limit of 3,000 gallons per day. \n2. The permit will allow the discharge of concentrated brackish groundwater from \na reverse osmosis treatment system used to desalinate on-site groundwater \nwells as the source for a public drinking water supply. \n \n3. The groundwater is to be desalinated using a treatment system that consists of \npre-filtration, reverse osmosis, and ultraviolet disinfection. \n \n \n \nhas ceased issuing permits to sources discharging to navigable waters subject to Rhode Island’s \njurisdiction ( See 33 U.S.C. § 1342(c)(1)), but maintains oversi ght responsibilities for state-issued permits. RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 3 \n4. No discharge of chemicals used in cleaning or sanitizing the pretreatment of \nfeed water or coagulation treatment are [sic] allowed under the permit. \n \n5. Copper, arsenic and nickel were the only metals identified as being present in a \nconcentration above the laboratory detection limit in the groundwater, and new discharges from desalination facilities to Class SA waters are allowed in \naccordance with the Rhode Island Water Quality Regulations, Rule 9.E(2)(k). \n \n6. Sakonnet Point Club, Inc. proposes to build a multi-purpose yacht club and \nmarina on Bluff Head Avenue in Little Compton, Rhode Island, and proposes to \nuse reverse osmosis treatment system for the potable fresh water needs of the \nclub. \n \n7. The source of the brackish water to be desalinated are from three, deep \nbedrock wells. \n \n8. The concentrated brackish water from the reverse osmosis treatment system is \nproposed to be discharged by pipe and diffuser into the Sakonnet River. \n \n9. Employees of the Office of Water Resources, Department of Environmental \nManagement, received an application for a RIPDES permit on August 4, 2000 \nand determined the application complete on October 3, 2001. \n \n10. OWR issued a draft permit RIPDES Number RI0023558 on July 1, 2002. \n \n11. OWR opened a public comment period for the draft permit, RIPDES Number \nRI0023558 from July 17, 2002 to August 20, 2002. \n \n12. On August 19, 2002, OWR held a public hearing on draft permit, RIPDES \nRI0023558, at which Petitioners submitted oral and written comments. \n \n13. On November 29, 2002, OWR issued RIPDES RI0023558 as a final permit, \naccompanied by a response to public comm ents and notification that “a formal \nhearing could be requested within 30 days of the receipt of this letter”. \n \n14. On December 31, 2002, John Karlsson delivered a request for an adjudicative \nhearing to the Office of Administrative Adjudication and to the office of Kelly Sheridan, Counsel for the Applicant. \n \n15. On January 5, 2003, Eric Beck sent a response to comments and for a request \nfor this formal hearing to Petitioner, John Karlsson. \n \n16. On January 6, 2003, Petitioner, Mary W. Johnson, delivered her request for \nformal hearing dated January 5, 2003, to the Office of Administrative \nAdjudication and Kelly Sheridan. \n \n The administrative hearing commenced on March 24, 2003. The Petitioners \nproceeded pro se ; Gregory Schultz, Esq. represented the Office of Water Resources of \nthe Department of Environmental Management and; R. Kelly Sheridan represented the RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 4 \nApplicant, SPC. The hearing was held pursuant to the Rhode Island Administrative \nProcedures Act, R.I. GEN. LAWS §42-35-1 et seq. and the Rules of Practice and \nProcedure for the Administrative Adjudication Division for Environmental Matters. After \nseveral days of testimony the final witness concluded on April 11, 2003. Witnesses \ncalled by Petitioners were Dr. Diane Cowan, Mary Johnson (Petitioner), John Karlsson \n(Petitioner), Angelo Liberti, Chris Powell and Thomas Angell. OWR’s witnesses were \nAngelo Liberti, Mark Gibson, Thomas Angell and Christopher Powell. Testifying on \nbehalf of Applicant were Todd Chaplin and Dr. Deborah French McCay. A briefing \nschedule was set and final reply briefs were filed on June 6, 2003. The hearing was \ndeemed closed as of that date. All documentary and testimonial evidence was considered and weighed. Witness testimony is discussed as needed in subsequent \nsections of this Decision and Order. \n Before proceeding further, I will address Applicant’s oral motion, joined in by \nOWR and made at the close of Petitioners’ case, that judgment as a matter of law be \ngranted in Applicant’s favor. Petitioners objected, argument was heard and I reserved \nruling on the motion until this decision was rendered. Applicant analogized the motion to Super.R.Civ.P. Rule 50 (a)(1) wherein a hearing justice presiding over a jury trial \nmay grant a party's motion for judgment as a matter of law after \"a party has been fully \nheard on an issue and there is no legally su fficient evidentiary basis for a reasonable \njury to find for that party on that issue.\" Counsel argued that Petitioners failed to \nestablish a prima facie case and the\n Applicant and OWR were entitled to judgment as \na matter of law. \nIn considering this motion, I am required to \"consider[s] the evidence in the light \nmost favorable to the nonmoving party, without weighing the evidence or evaluating the credibility of witnesses, and draw[s] from the record all reasonable inferences that \nsupport the position of the nonmoving party. * * * If, after such a review, there remain RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 5 \nfactual issues upon which reasonable persons might draw different conclusions, the \nmotion for [judgment as a matter of law] must be denied, and the issues must be \nsubmitted to the jury for determination.\" Mills v. State Sales, Inc. , 824 A.2d 461, 472 \n(citations omitted). In applying that standard, I find that Petitioners introduced sufficient \nevidence on the issue of habitat that required the weighing of testimony and findings of fact. Although these issues are ultimately decided in favor of Applicant and OWR, the \nMotion for Judgment as a Matter of Law is denied. \n \nII. Did the Office of Water Resources fail to comply with RIPDES Regulations \n11.02(a)(14)(i)(A) by not requiring Applicant to report certain quantitative \ndata? \n \n RIPDES Regulation 11.02(a)(14)(i)(A) provides: \n \n (i) (A) Every applicant must report quantitative data for every outfall for \n the following pollutants: \n \n(1) Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD); \n \n(2) Chemical Oxygen Demand \n \n(3) Total Organic Carbon; \n \n(4) Total Suspended Solids and Total Dissolved Solids; \n \n(5) Ammonia (as N); \n \n(6) Temperature (both winter and summer); and \n \n(7) pH \n \n Petitioners contend that OWR abused its discretion or otherwise failed to abide \nby its own Regulations by not requiring t he Applicant to submit the above-referenced \npollutant data.2 They contend that OWR should have required a more detailed \ncharacterization of the source (well) water. \n Mr. Todd Chaplin, a licensed engineer in the state of Rhode Island and \n \n2 This issue was also raised in Petitioners’ comments during the permitting process and was addressed by \nOWR in its Response to Public Comments, OWR 3 at 5. RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 6 \nCommonwealth of Massachusetts testified on Applicant’s behalf. He holds a Masters \nDegree in environmental and civil engineering from the University of Rhode Island. He currently serves as President of Mount Hope Engineering, the engineering firm that \ndesigned the desalinization unit for SPC. Mr. Chaplin testified that well water sampling was done on each of the wells supplying water to the SPC. Mr. Chaplin characterized \nthe results as consistent with fairly deep bedrock wells in the Little Compton area. The \nresults of the laboratory tests indicated that drinking water standards were met for all \nparameters tested but for the salinity of the water. \n Under cross-examination by Petitioners, Mr. Chaplin acknowledged that the water samples were not tested for the presence of all possible pollutants. Instead, the samples were evaluated for the typical water quality parameters that would be sampled \nfor in a private or public well and that are standard in the public water supply industry. \n Angelo Liberti was called to testify by Petitioners and OWR. He serves as the \nChief of the Surface Water Protection Programs in the Office of Water Resources. His \npertinent experience includes oversight of the RIPDES Permitting Program, \ndesignation of water quality criteria for Rhode Island, determining if the state’s water bodies are in compliance with water quality standards and implementing corrective \nactions for those water bodies which are not in compliance with state standards. Mr. \nLiberti was qualified by agreement as an expert in civil environmental engineering, \nwater quality, hydrodynamic modeling, fate and transport of pollutants and the \napplication of RIPDES and Water Quality Regulations. \n In order to determine which pollutants may be present in the discharge at levels \nlikely to cause a violation of water quality criteria, Mr. Liberti testified that OWR had \nrequired testing beyond the first round of testing performed by Applicant. OWR required sampling for several additional metals that are either metals of concern or are \ntypically found in the area. According to Mr. Liberti, this augmented sampling was RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 7 \nspecifically targeted at the water quality concerns for aquatic life. \n OWR waived the reporting requirements for the pollutants identified in \n11.02(a)(14)(i)(A) pursuant to RIPDES Regulations Rule 11.02(a)(14)(i)B which reads: \n(B) At the applicant’s request, the Department may waive the reporting \nrequirements for one or more of the pollutants listed in paragraph \n(a)(14)(i)(A) of this section. \n \nEach pollutant and the basis for OWR’s decision are addressed below. \n \n \nBiochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) \nand Total Organic Carbons (TOC) \n \n OWR determined that there is no reasonable potential for significant amounts of \nthese pollutants to be present in the well water, therefore a waiver was granted. OWR based this conclusion on its general knowledge of the area and consultation with \nDEM’s Office of Waste Management concerning any known or potential contamination \nof groundwater in the area. Mr. Chaplin also addressed these constituents in his \ntestimony. BOD, COD and TOC are pollutants that one may expect to find in \nwastewater treatment or raw wastewater discharges. Typically in groundwater he \nwould expect them to be extremely low, if pr esent at all. He indicated that in his \nexperience, he has never tested deep- water wells for the presence of BOD, COD and \n(with one inapplicable exception) TOC. \n With regard to dissolved oxygen levels, OWR performed a worst-case scenario calculation assuming a dissolved oxygen level of zero in the discharge and an oxygen \nlevel of seven in the receiving waters (based on information supplied by the Narragansett Bay Project). Within eight (8) feet of the discharge, the calculation \nresulted in a 0.04 milligram per liter change in the dissolved oxygen level of the \nreceiving waters. Based on this analysis, and the conclusion that the discharge will cause less than a 1% change in dissolved oxygen levels at the edge of the mixing \nzone, OWR concluded that there was no reasonable potential to violate water quality RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 8 \ncriteria for dissolved oxygen and a waiver was granted. \nTotal Suspended Solids (TSS) and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) \n OWR reviewed the reasonable potential of total suspended solids in the \ndischarge to cause a violation of the water quality criteria. OWR performed a mass \nbalance to evaluate the impact of the effluent on receiving waters. Using the TDS discharge as indicated in the application and the typical TDS concentration found in \nseawater, there is an in-stream change of less than 1% at the edge of the mixing \nzones. Based on this analysis, OWR concluded that the discharge does not have a \nreasonable potential to violate water quality criteria for TDS discharges. (OWR 3 at 12). \n OWR waived the quantitative data-reporting requirement for total suspended \nsolids. As grounds for this decision, OWR cites the fact that the source water is well \nwater, which will be processed through a 25m prefilter. Due to this prefiltration of the \nsource water, OWR concluded that there will be no measurable levels of TSS in the discharge. Accordingly, OWR determined that the discharge has no reasonable \npotential to cause a violation of water quality criteria due to excessive total suspended \nsolids in the discharge. \nAmmonia \n \n With respect to ammonia, Mr. Liberti again testified that OWR determined that \nthe discharge did not have a reasonable potential to violate water quality criteria for this \nconstituent. As such, OWR did not require the Applicant to submit pollutant data for \nammonia. \nTemperature \n With respect to monitoring the temperature of the discharge, OWR determined that the discharge does not have a reasonable potential to cause an exceedance of the in-stream temperature water quality criteria and monitoring for this criteria was waived. \nAs the basis for this waiver, OWR performed a heat balance analysis using RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 9 \ntemperature extremes of 32°F for the receiving water and 212°F for the discharge. The \nresult of this heat balance analysis indicates an in-stream change of 1°F in the acute zone (7.9’ radius) and .04 at a radius of 450´. Based on this analysis, OWR concluded \nthat the discharge has no reasonable potential to cause an exceedance of the water \nquality criteria, of a maximum temperature change of 1.6°F, at the boundary of the \nmixing zone. \n Dr. Deborah French McCay testified on behalf of the Applicant. Dr. McCay \nholds an A.B in Zoology from Rutgers College and a Ph.D. in Biological Oceanography \nfrom the Graduate School of Oceanography of the University of Rhode Island. She \nwas qualified as an expert in pollutant fates and effects. Her expertise concerns how pollutants are transported and interact in the environment and where those pollutants \nultimately settle in an environment. She has studied toxicity and other effects that \npollutants might have on organisms exposed to such pollutants including risk \nassessment and impact assessment. Dr. McCay also performed a temperature \nanalysis assuming an effluent temperature of eleven degrees Centigrade (11°C), a \nwinter Sakonnet River temperature of two degrees Centigrade (2°C) and a summer temperature of twenty-two degrees Centigr ade (22°C). She performed a dilution \ncalculation and determined that at the edge of the mixing zone, the winter temperature would be 2.1° C and the summer temperature would be 21.87°C. She concluded that \nin either season, the temperature change at the edge of the mixing zone would be \ninsignificant. \npH \n \n In assessing whether applicant must report quantitative data for pH at the outflow, OWR determined that due to rapid mixing of the effluent as well as a high dilution rate, there is no reasonable potential to cause unacceptable toxicity in the \nreceiving waters. Dr. McCay indicated in her testimony that she performed dilution RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 10 \ncalculations for pH. The pH of the effluent will be 7.4; the pH of the Sakonnet River is \n8. Using a dilution factor of 82 (the most conservative – assuming slack tide), the pH at the edge of the mixing zone would be 7.99. She characterized the change in pH as \nnot even measurable. As a matter of practice, final permit limits for pH (daily and \nmonthly) were established and are reflecte d in the Permit Development Document \n(OWR 4). \n Based on the foregoing discussion, I find that the constituents referenced above do not have a reasonable potential to cause an exceedance of water quality criteria. \nPetitioners failed to prove that OWR did not comply with RIPDES Regulation \n11.02(a)(14)(i)(A). \n \nIII. Did OWR fail to meet the requirements of the Rhode Island Water Quality \nRegulations 8.D.(1).(f) and (g) in issuing this Permit?\n \nWater Quality Regulation 8.D.(1).(f) \n \n WQR 8.D.(1).(f) allows the Director to recognize a mixing zone at the discharge \nsite on a case-by-case basis. The mixing zone must meet the minimum conditions set \nforth in WQR 8.D.(1).(f) which sets the minimum narrative criteria for a mixing zone, including its size, shape and dimension. The Rule provides: \n(f). Non-thermal Mixing Zones - In the case of non-thermal discharges, in \napplying these standards the Director may recognize, where appropriate, a limited acute and/or chronic mixing zone(s) on a case-by-case basis. The locations, size and shape of these zones shall provide for a maximum protection \nof fish and wildlife. \n \n A mixing zone is defined by Rule 7of the Water Quality Regulations as a “limited \narea or volume in the immediate vicinity of a discharge where mixing occurs and the \nreceiving surface water quality is not required to meet applicable standards or criteria, RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 11 \n provided the minimum conditions described in Rule 8.D.1.(e)3 and 8.D.1.(f) of these \nregulations are attained”. \n Petitioners maintain that the permit fails to meet the mandates of WQR 8.D.(1).(f) \nbecause a limited and/or chronic mixing zone is not appropriate in this location and the \npermit does not provide for the maximum protection of fish and wildlife. They further contend that, to meet the mandate of “maximum protection”, OWR should have required \nwhole effluent toxicity (WET) testing. \n Establishment of the mixing zone, a crucial issue in this case, was discussed \nextensively by Mr. Liberti. As part of the permit process, the Applicant submits a plan \ndetailing the proposed discharge system and supplying OWR with dilution calculations \nand other information to establish a mixing zone compliant with applicable regulations \nand to support issuance of the permit. In this case, Applied Science Associates, on \nbehalf of Applicant, evaluated the proposed system and used an EPA-sponsored \nmodel, the CORMIX model, to evaluate the dilution that would occur in the vicinity of \nthe discharge. As is routine with permit applications, Applicant’s consultants did initial \nmodel runs evaluating dilution of the effluent and how it would vary over the tidal cycle. \nThose calculations are set forth in Exhibit A3. OWR then reviews the Application to \nensure compliance with the Regulations. \n In ultimately establishing a mixing zone that meets the Clean Water Act and Rhode Island’s Water Quality Regulations, OWR utilizes portions of the Technical \nSupport Document for Water Quality-Based Toxics Control (“TSD”). The TSD is a guidance document prepared by EPA that discusses methodologies for evaluating \ntoxics in the water column. As a guidance document, the TSD is not binding and OWR may exercise discretion in applying portions of the TSD in evaluating potential permits. \n \n \n3 This section is not applicab le to the instant matter. RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 12 \nThe specific portions used by OWR, both on a routine basis and for this permit, were \nthe sections that describe the establishment of mixing zones consistent with the Clean Water Act and the reasonable potential of a discharge to cause violations of water \nquality criteria. Mr. Liberti was involved in reviewing and approving the permit \ndevelopment document prepared by his staff and under his supervision. Specifically, \nhe reviewed the establishment of the mixing zone, the evaluation of reasonable \npotential for exceeding water quality regulations and the coordination with the Division \nof Fish and Wildlife concerning fisheries issues. According to testimony by Mr. Liberti, a \nmixing zone is an area in which it is expected that water quality criteria will not be met \nuntil the edge of that zone. Moreover, it is an area in which lethality to benthic and stationary organisms is not only allowed, but expected. Alt hough mixing zones are \nallowed, Mr. Liberti acknowledged that the Regulations require that the location, size and shape of the acute and chronic mixing zones provide for the maximum protection of fish and wildlife. It was his conclusion that the permit meets these regulatory requirements . \n Mr. Liberti explained OWR’s interpretation of the phrase “maximum protection”. He stated that this phrase is not interpreted by OWR as prohibiting a discharge. He testified that, if that were the intent of the regulation, it would have been written in a way \nthat allowed a discharge only when other alternatives were infeasible. This is not, in his \nopinion, the intent of the Regulation nor is it how OWR has consistently interpreted and \napplied the phrase “maximum protection”. When OWR allows a mixing zone, “maximum \nprotection” is accomplished by requiring specific permit conditions, on a case-by-case \nbasis, while typically considering the location of the discharge, the size of the discharge, \nflow limits and other factors that would provide greater degrees of protection. \n For this permit, Mr. Liberti testified that OWR followed that routine process and \nconsidered the location of the discharge. OWR required that the discharge be located in \nan area that is well flushed and therefore required that the discharge pipe be placed RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 13 \noutside the breakwater on the ocean side and not inside the harbor where flushing would \nbe minimal. The permitted location promotes rapid mixing of effluent. The discharge pipe is located twenty feet from the seawall to encourage better mixing and a diffuser \npipe is required, again to promote more rapid mixing with the receiving waters. \n In determining the size and shape of the mixing zone, Mr. Liberti testified that \nOWR achieved “maximum protection” as required by the regulations in at least two ways. \nFirst, in determining the size of the mixing zone, and as discussed earlier, OWR \nemployed the EPA recommended method of computing mixing zone diameters and \nchose the most stringent acute mixing zone diameter of 7.9 feet. Secondly, although a \nchronic mixing zone radius of 450' is allowable under the Regulations, OWR mandated \nthat both acute and chronic water quality criteria be met at the edge of the more limited \n7.9 foot radius. \n Other requirements were added by OWR which, according to Mr. Liberti, further \naccomplished the “maximum protection” required by the regulations. OWR prohibited the use of chemicals in the discharge and prohibited use of anti-scaling compounds. \nSignificantly, OWR set a maximum daily discharge of three thousand (3,000) gallons per day -- less than half the volume requested and supported by Applicant in its \nRIPDES application. The effect of the lower volume discharge is to increase the \nApplicant’s predicted dilution factor by two, and reduce by half, the percentage of \nallowable pollutant concentrations. \n Petitioners next maintain that the OWR failed to meet regulatory mandates by \nfailing to require whole effluent toxicity testing (“WET testing”). WET testing is the means suggested by Petitioners to best assess the effects, if any, of additive toxicity of copper, \nnickel and arsenic on the marine organisms in the receiving waters. WET testing evaluates interactions between all pollutants in a discharge rather than focusing on one \nspecific constituent in the discharge. It measures the response of aquatic organisms RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 14 \nexposed to the subject effluent in both acute and chronic tests. Petitioners maintain that \nWET testing would provide a better overall picture of the toxicity of the discharge than would the methods included in the Permit. They assert that the OWR failed to comply \nwith its Regulations by not requiring WET testing of the effluent for this Permit. \n Mary W. Johnson testified on behalf of Petitioners. Ms. Johnson was qualified as \nan expert in bioassays and lobster toxicology. Ms. Johnson was employed as a \nbiological laboratory technician for the EPA from 1973 to 1993 and from that date (to the \npresent) she holds the position of technical information specialist. She conducted toxicity \nbioassays on marine organisms including lobsters and lobster larvae. Specifically, Ms. \nJohnson testified on behalf of Petitioners concerning bioassays she has conducted on \nlobster larvae and mysid shrimp (a test species which she stated would be species \nprotective for crustaceans). It was Ms. Johnson’s testimony that OWR should require \ntesting that would measure the combined effect of metals present in the discharge rather than the effects of a single metal on an organism. Moreover, her testimony was that in \ndoing such testing, OWR should require that mysid shrimp be the test species. \n To further support the need for WET testing, Ms. Johnson testified that the \nseawater at the site of the discharge had little complexing ability with regard to metals. \nAccording to Ms. Johnson, compared to the waters of the upper bay, the receiving \nwaters have little ability to bind metals and make them unavailable to be taken up by \norganisms within the mixing zone. As a result, she testified that the metals discharged to \nthe receiving waters would be more bio-available to organisms, including lobster, thereby increasing the toxicity of the discharge. \n The issue of additive toxicity was also addressed by Dr. McCay. She agreed with Petitioners that metals can have additive effects. She stated that EPA is currently working on development of criteria for additive metal concentrations and effects. There \nis a formula currently in use by EPA and others in the field which she has used, and RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 15 \npublished papers on, which evaluates the additive toxicity of the expected metals. The \nmethod is a “Toxic Unit Analysis” whereby the sum of the toxic units for each pollutant that might have an additive effect is totaled. To be acceptable, the added units must \ntotal less than one (<1.0). Dr. McCay performed this computation adding the toxic units \nfor copper, nickel and arsenic, as compared to the acute criteria (CMC), and determined \nthat at the edge of the mixing zone the sum of toxic use is less than one (.98). Based on \nthis analysis, she concluded that there would be no additive effects outside the mixing \nzone. She performed a similar analysis as compared to the chronic criteria (CCC) and \nconcluded that the sum of toxic use at the edge of the mixing zone was likewise less \nthan one (.65). Because of this comparison, and the fact that the Water Quality Criteria conservatively assume that all dissolved metals are bioavailable, Dr. McCay concluded \nthat the criteria used are protective of not having additive effects from the metals present \nin the effluent. Moreover, these results were achieved using the Applicant’s proposed maximum daily discharge of 7,500 gallons per day, not the Permit-imposed maximum of \n3,000 gallons per day. As a result, Dr. McCay indicated that these numbers are very \nconservative and would likely be cut in half using the maximum daily discharge set by the Permit. \n Mr. Liberti testified that in reviewing the Permit application OWR considered additive toxicity. This concern is addressed in the TSD, which outlines three control \napproaches to protection of aquatic life. It is, again, EPA guidance that recommends that \nstates, in their water quality regulations, look at a) chemical specific numbers for the protection of aquatic life; b) whole effluent toxicity testing (WET Testing) and; c) \nbiosurveys of the waterbody or a biocriteria approach. With regard to this permit, OWR, \nin its discretion, applied chemical specific numbers. WET testing was not required \nbecause it is OWR’s position that whole effluent toxicity requirements are met by the \nnarrative standards adopted in the Water Quality Regulations. RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 16 \n Mr. Liberti’s testimony was clear that WET testing is not mandated by existing \nRegulations. What is required, is that Applicant meet the narrative standards set forth in the Regulations. In evaluating and issuing the Permit, OWR determined that the \nApplicant met those properly adopted standards. Mr. Liberti further explained that \nbecause EPA retains oversight responsibilities for RIPDES Permits, the Permit was \nforwarded to Bob Mendoza, manager of EPA’s Region I Rhode Island unit. EPA’s role \nin a delegated state, such as Rhode Island, is to review the permit and “overfile” should \nthey determine that any conditions or terms of the permit are not appropriate under the \nRegulations. Although there was some communication during the Permit process, \nultimately EPA did not make any comment s concerning the permit limits or the \nestablishment of the mixing zone nor did they “overfile” on the Permit. \n Petitioners questioned Mr. Liberti extensively, but his conclusion that the permit issued by OWR provided the “maximum protection” contemplated by the Regulation did not waver. Although it has been Petitioners’ steadfast position that WET testing is a \nbetter approach and should be employed, no evidence was placed on the record to \nestablish that WET testing is required by applicable regulations or that OWR failed to meet existing water quality regulations or otherwise abused its discretion by following the \nnarrative standards adopted in its Regulations. Petitioners failed to prove that OWR did \nnot comply with WQR 8.D.(1).(f) in issuing this Permit. \nWater Quality Regulation 8.D.(1).(g) i-iv \n \n Water Quality Regulation 8.D.(1).(f) requires that the establishment of a mixing \nzone be determined on a case-by-case basis and include additional minimum \nsafeguards. WQR Rule 8.D.(1).(g) sets these additional requirements as follows: \n \n (g). At a minimum, all mixing zones must: \n \ni. Meet the criteria for aesthetics, in accordance with rule 8.D.(1).b; \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 17 \nii. Be limited to an area or volume that will prevent interference with \nthe existing and designated uses in the associated waterbody segment and beyond; \n \niii. Allow an appropriat e zone of passage for migrating fish and other \norganisms, prohibit lethality to organisms passing through the \nmixing zone, and protect for spawning and nursery habitat; and \n \niv. Not allow substances to accumulate in sediments, fish and wildlife \nor food chains such that known or predicted safe exposure levels \nfor the health of humans or fish and wildlife will be exceeded. \n \n At hearing, and in their post-hearing memorandum, Petitioners assert that the \npermit fails to meet the requirements of WQR 8.D.(1).(g) i-iv. For completeness, I will \naddress each subsection separately. \nA.) Does the mixing zone meet the criteria for aesthetics as required by \nWQR 8.D.(1).(g) i? \n \n Applicant’s witness, Dr. McCay, testified to her familiarity with the Water Quality \nRegulations and the requirements in WQR 8 concerning the aesthetics of the mixing \nzone. Dr. McCay testified that the effluent released into the mixing zone is clear, \nwithout visual impact. She concluded that the discharge will not impact existing \naesthetics in the mixing zone. \n There was no evidence introduced to contradict Dr. McCay's testimony \nconcerning the aesthetics of the discharge and I therefore conclude that Petitioners have \nnot demonstrated by a preponderance of the evidence that OWR has failed to comply with this Regulation. \nB.) Is the mixing zone limited to an area or volume that will prevent \ninterference with existing and designated uses in the associated water body segment and beyond as required by WQR 8.D.(1).(g) ii? \n \n The testimony of both Mr. Liberti and Dr. McCay established that the area of the \nmixing zone is very small. Dr. McCay stated that the actual mixing zone is a radius of \n7.9 feet comprising a total area of approximately 196 square feet. Mr. Liberti testified RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 18 \nthat the volume of the discharge is limited to three thousand (3,000) gallons per day and \ncharacterized it as a minor discharge under the RIPDES Regulations. \n Dr. McCay testified in detail concerning the size and volume of the permitted \nmixing zone compared to areas with similar habitat in the lower Sakonnet River and the \nlower Narragansett Bay. She made statistically conservative comparisons of habitat based upon aerial photographs of the area and concluded that the mixing zone \nrepresents 0.007 percent of these areas and 0.013 percent of the habitat in the lower \nSakonnet River. Dr. McCay testified that the impact of this mixing zone on habitat in \nlower Narragansett Bay is insignificant and insignificant to the total area of the waterbody \nfor other kinds of use of rocky habitat. \n The designated uses for Class SA Waters are shellfish harvesting for direct \nhuman consumption, primary a nd secondary contact recreati onal activities, and fish and \nwildlife habitat. Using the dilution calculations ultimately approved in the Permit, OWR \ndetermined that prior to the edge of the 7.9’ mixing zone, the effluent will meet the more \nstringent of either the aquatic toxicity-based criteria or the human health-based criteria. \nAccordingly, OWR concluded that the discharge will not interfere with existing and designated uses in the associated water body segment. (OWR 4 at 7). With specific \nregard to shellfish harvesting, this conclusion was based on the fact that concentrations \nof copper, arsenic and nickel at the edge of the mixing zone are well below human health \ncriteria for water and fish consumption. \n Based on the foregoing, Petitioners failed to prove that OWR did not comply with \nWQR 8.D.(1).(g) ii. \nC.) Does the mixing zone allow an appropriate zone of passage for \nmigrating fish and other organisms, prohibit lethality to organisms passing through the mixing zone, and protect for spawning and nursery habitat as required by WQR 8.D.(1).(g) iii? \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 19 \n This subsection of the regulations garnered the most attention from Petitioners. \nPetitioners maintain that the mixing zone fails to meet any of the requirements of this subsection. \n First, Petitioners maintain that the mixing zone does not allow an appropriate zone of passage for migrating fish and other organisms. Dr. McCay’s testimony addressed this issue. She testified that the mixing zone lies next to the mouth of the \nSakonnet River. The mouth of the river is approximately two and one half miles across. \nAccording to her unchallenged calculations, the mixing zone comprises less than one \npercent (1%) of the linear distance across the Sakonnet River mouth.\n4 She further \ntestified that the mixing zone does not block any migration area, spawning area or \nnursery area. \n Mr. Liberti testified on behalf of OWR regarding this issue. Under cross-examination by Petitioner Karlsson, Mr. Liberti explained that the permit prohibits lethality to organisms passing through the mixing zone. This was achieved by using the \nmethodology outlined in the TSD prepared as guidance by EPA. Mr. Liberti stated that \nEPA indicates in the TSD that lethality to organisms passing through the mixing zone will \nbe avoided if the most stringent criteria in the TSD is required by the permit. As \ndiscussed previously, OWR employs this portion of the TSD on a regular basis to ensure \nthat it meets the requirements of the Clean Water Act. \n On redirect, Mr. Liberti provided detailed testimony indicating the OWR exercised its discretion and followed EPA’s guidance as provided in the TSD entitled “Prevention of Lethality to Passing Organisms”. Mr. Liberti explained that the TSD sets forth three \nmethods for achieving prevention of lethality to organisms passing through the mixing \n \n4 Dr. McCay’s testimony was that the mixing zone is 0.12 percent of the linear cross section distance \nacross the Sakonnet River mouth. \n \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 20 \n zone. According to Mr. Liberti, OWR followed the three methods suggested by EPA in \nthe TSD, calculated the diameter of the acute mixing zone for each method and ultimately selected the most restrictive, or smallest diameter mixing zone resulting from \nthe utilization of the EPA criteria.\n5 The EPA recommended criteria are intended to \naddress the most sensitive marine and freshwater organisms that one would expect to \nbe present in a marine environment. DEM uses these criteria as an appropriate level of \nprotectiveness under its regulations. It was Mr. Liberti’s testimony that this process \ncomported with the regulatory requirement that the mixing zone prohibit lethality to \norganisms passing through the mixing zone. \n Petitioners next question whether the discharge will cause an ion imbalance in \nthe receiving waters. Applicant’s witness, Dr. McCay spoke to this issue in her \ntestimony. She indicated that organisms living in a particular marine environment are \naccustomed to a certain ratio of ions in the surrounding water. Calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride and sulfates are the major ions found in seawater. These \nions must be present in the seawater in certain proportions or they may adversely affect \nthe metabolism of the organisms. Dr. McCay disagreed with Petitioners’ assertion that \nthere would be an ionic imbalance in the effluent and ultimately in the mixing zone and \nbeyond, which would negatively affect water quality and fish and wildlife. Dr. McCay \ntestified that she performed a comparison of the ion balance expected in the effluent with \nthe ion balance of the Sakonnet River. She used constituent concentrations present in \nthe well water and constituent concentrations for standard seawater. Assuming an effluent concentration of three times the average well-water concentration, she compared \nthe effluent concentrations to seawater concentrations and characterized the ion balance \nof seawater and effluent as virtually identical. She concluded that the discharge will not \n \n5 These calculations are set forth in the Permit Development Document (OWR 4 ) RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 21 \ncause an imbalance in ions to the receiving waters. The results of her analysis are set \nforth fully in A4. \n Christopher Powell, a Principal Marine Biologist for DEM was called to testify by \nPetitioners and OWR. Upon direct examinatio n by Petitioners, he explained the type of \nhabitat assessment he conducted. He indicated that he and a co-worker visited the \nsite of the proposed discharge by boat and conducted an inspection by diving in the \nvicinity of the discharge. They performed a dive tracing a transect along the bottom \nfrom the discharge area to the shore. During the dive, he observed the area, its \ngeographic characteristics and marine life. Based on these observations and his \nknowledge and experience concerning bay habitat, he concluded that the area was \ntypical of marine habitat along the breakwaters of lower Narragansett Bay. He \ncharacterized this process as a qualitative su rvey of the site. Petitioners have criticized \nOWR’s use of a qualitative survey of the site and have argued that a quantitative \nspecies survey should have been perform ed. They have not, however, introduced \nsufficient evidence to prove that a qualitative survey is inadequate or fails to comply with regulatory requirements. \n Petitioners next assert that the Permit fails to protect for spawning and nursery \nhabitat as required in WQR 8.D.(1).(g) iii. Several witnesses testified with regard to this \nissue and there was conflicting testimony concerning the nature and value of the habitat in the area of the discharge. \n Dr. Diane Cowan was called by Petitioners and qualified by agreement as an \nexpert in habitat characterization, lobster biology and recruitment. Dr. Cowan is a \nPh.D. Biologist and has studied lobsters for twenty (20) years. She has spent the last \neleven years conducting a monthly census of lobster nursery habitats and founded the Lobster Conservancy in 1996 to survey juvenile lobster populations throughout New \nEngland. Dr. Cowan visited the site at extremely low tide to observe the habitat in the RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 22 \ngeneral area of the discharge. She overturned rocks to determine species \ncomposition. She also consulted the nautical charts and the memoranda prepared by OWR witness, Chistopher Powell. She did not dive at the site but she did prepare a \nspecies survey in the area closest to shore – the intertidal area within the radius of the \ndischarge. \n Based on her observations, she concluded that the site represents an important \nlobster nursery habitat. It was her testimony that the area of the discharge is the type \nof habitat where lobsters are commonly found. Based on her observations and \nexperience, she testified that the acute mixing zone covers approximately eighteen \nsquare meters and that the habitat within that area supports a mean density of between 1 and 4.5 lobsters per square meter (for a total number of expected lobsters \nof between 18 and 80 within the 7.9’ radius of the mixing zone). She testified, under \ncross-examination that lobsters are a common species in Narragansett Bay. She characterized the cobble/boulder habitat that she observed as rare, although she \nagreed that it is typical of the marine habitat along breakwaters in the lower reaches of \nNarragansett Bay. \n Petitioner John D. Karlsson was qualified, by agreement of the parties, as an \nexpert in habitat characterization and fisheries. Mr. Karlsson was employed by DEM \nas a marine biologist. He has since retired. His duties included habitat evaluation and \nhabitat utilization. He testified that the area of the discharge is lobster nursery habitat. \n Mark Gibson testified on behalf of the OWR concerning lobster population \ndensities and lobster habitat. Mr. Gibson serves as the Deputy Chief of the Fish and \nWildlife Office of DEM and is responsible for administering the marine fisheries section. \nHe has been employed at DEM for twenty-five years serving first as an entry-level biologist in the freshwater fisheries section and attained the position of Principal \nFisheries Biologist in the marine fisheries section in 1994. Mr. Gibson has performed RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 23 \n extensive work on lobster population dynamics. Specif ically, he has assessed the \nstatus of the fishery resources in Rhode Island preparing stock assessments \nestimating the size and fluctuation of populations. He has also worked on the \npopulation dynamics of lobster in the Rhode Island area in response to three oil spills, \nthe earliest of which occurred in 1989. He has also conducted population dynamics \nmodeling for other marine species including winter and summer flounder, striped bass, \nand bay quahogs. He is currently working on a marine population dynamics project \nconcerning the status of the Area 2 lobster fishery, an area which runs from the elbow \nof Cape Cod to the tip of Long Island and includes all of the state waters of Rhode \nIsland including Narragansett Bay. Mr. Gibson was qualified, by agreement of the parties, as an expert in marine ecology and marine organism population dynamics. \n Mr. Gibson determined that in assessing impacts to lobsters from the proposed discharge, the appropriate management unit to which comparisons should be made is the Area 2 lobster fishery which encompasses the Sakonnet Point area. Any lobsters \nthat are produced from early benthic phase to adult would be part of the Area 2 lobster \nfishery. It was Mr. Gibson’s opinion that the small sphere of habitat impacted by the mixing zone, even if it has lobster density at the high end of the ranges testified to by \nDr. Cowan at this hearing, would constitute a “tiny fraction” of the Area 2 lobster \nfishery. He opined that the discharge would not have a detectable effect on lobster \nnursery areas in Area 2.\n6 \n Mr. Gibson disagreed with Dr. Cowan’s statement that the discharge area was \nan important lobster nursery habitat. It was Mr. Gibson’s testimony, based on his \nexperience and the data contained in OWR 18, that the discharge area is not the type \n \n \n6 Dr. McCay had testified that of t he possible 18 to 80 lobsters that may be impacted by the mixing zone, \nonly about one tenth of one pe rcent (.1%) would actually mature to legal size and then, only a fraction of \nthose would be caught. RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 24 \nof area that would hold high concentrati ons of newly settled or early benthic phase \nlobsters. Although he acknowledges that there are some lobsters present in the area \nof the discharge, and some in the benthic stage, he characterized it as a performance \narea for older, larger lobsters. He reiterated on cross-examination that lobster habitat \nexists in the discharge area, but that it is a small piece of habitat relative to all the \nhabitat available in Rhode Island for the lobster fishery. \n On direct examination Mr. Liberti was questioned specifically with respect to \nprotection of spawning and nursery habitat. Having heard the testimony of the Dr. \nCowan concerning the use of the discharge area by lobsters and other aquatic life, Mr. \nLiberti was confident that OWR protected for spawning and nursery habitat. He stated that “irregardless” of whether the discharge area is found to be spawning or nursery \nhabitat, OWR had provided the degree of protection required in its Regulations by \nlimiting the size of the mixing zone. \n Based on the foregoing, I conclude that Petitioners failed to prove that OWR did \nnot comply with WQR 8.D.(1).(g) iii. \nD.) Does the mixing zone not allow substances to accumulate in sediments, \nfish and wildlife or food chains such that known or predicted safe exposure levels for the health of humans or fish and wildlife will be exceeded as \nrequired by WQR 8.D.(1).(g) iv? \n \n Dr. McCay addressed this issue on direct examination. She testified that the \neffluent will be below human health criteria for the metals that have a reasonable \npotential to cause an exceedance of water quality criteria. She therefore concluded, as \ndid OWR, that exposure levels for humans, fish and wildlife will not be exceeded in the discharge. As a result, the discharge will no t allow substances to accumulate in the \nsediment or the foodchain. The same conclusion was reached by OWR as reflected in the Permit Development Document. The basis for that conclusion is that the \nconcentrations of copper, arsenic and nickel at the edge of the mixing zone are well RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 25 \nbelow the human health criteria for water consumption (the most sensitive pathway of \nexposure) and fish consumption. The human health criteria were developed by EPA and account for bioaccumulation .(OWR 4 at 3). \n Based on the foregoing analysis, Petitioners failed to prove that OWR did not comply with the requirements of WQR 8.D.(1).(g)iv. \n \nIV. Did OWR fail to meet the antidegradation requirements set forth in Rule 18 \nand the Antidegradation Implementation Policy of Appendix C of the \nWater Quality Regulations? \n \n The provisions of the State Antidegradation Regulations have as their objective \nthe protection and maintenance of water quality and uses. Appendix C of the WQRs \nstates, with regard to protecting high quality waters such as Sakonnet River, \n “[I]n waters where the existing water quality exceeds levels necessary to \nsupport propagation of fish and wildlife, and recreation in and on the water, that \nquality shall be maintained and protected, except for insignificant changes in water quality as determined by the Director and in accordance with this Antidegradation Implementation Policy, as amended”. \n \n The Antidegradation Implementation Policy requires that any discharge that \nconsumes greater than twenty percent (>20%) of the remaining assimilative capacity of the receiving water is considered significant and requires the further step of an \n“important benefits demonstration”. \n The Permit Development Document (OWR 4) describes the specific process \nfollowed by OWR in determining compliance with antidegradation criteria and the \nmodeling runs that were conducted. The receiving waters were determined to be High \nQuality Waters under the regulation. It was further determined that the discharge has the reasonable potential to impact copper, nickel and arsenic concentrations. In order \nto assure compliance with antidegradation requirements, the antidegradation criteria \nwere used in establishing the chronic mixing zone. All modeling runs were performed \nusing the CORMIX model, an EPA approved modeling methodology. To be most RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 26 \nconservative, the modeling assumed ebb slack tide, which represents the phase of the \ntidal cycle that affords the least dilution of effluent. OWR 4 sets forth in detail the computations and analysis performed by OWR. The result of this modeling reflects \nthat Copper requires the largest mixing zone to meet the antidegradation criteria – \n450’. Nickel and arsenic meet antidegradation requirements within 7.9’ of the outfall. \nFor copper, nickel and arsenic, water quality criteria, both acute and chronic, are met \nwithin 7.9 feet of the discharge. The Permit Development document reflects OWR’s \nultimate conclusion that less than 20% of the remaining assimilative capacity would be \nused for copper, nickel and arsenic, and therefore the discharge was characterized as \nan insignificant change in water quality for purposes of the Antidegradation Implementation Policy. \n Mr. Liberti testified that the Antidegradation Implementation Policy not only requires that criteria be met, but also restricts impacts from the discharge that are even a marginal change from existing water quality. Mr. Liberti testified that in evaluating the \nreasonable potential for pollutants to cause an exceedance of water quality criteria, \nOWR looked at the most stringent effluent limit allowable, whether that was the limit necessary to comply with antidegradation or the limits necessary to achieve chronic or \nacute criteria at a distance of eight (8) feet from the outfall. He concluded that the \nPermit meets antidegradation mandates because at the edge of the 450’ zone, there \nwould be no more than a 20% change in existing water quality. \nConclusion \n Each issue raised by Petitioners in this proceeding was previously addressed in OWR’s Response to Public Comments. In each instance, OWR presented reasoned \nexplanations for approving the Permit notwithstanding Petitioners’ objections. Mr. Karlsson and Ms. Johnson strongly and sincerely disagree with OWR’s interpretations of \nits own Regulations and the discretion it exercised in issuing the Permit. RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 27 \n The Department’s water quality criteria were adopted by rule subject to the public \nnotice and comment mandates of the Rhode Island Administrative Procedures Act. R.I. GEN. LAWS § 42-35-1 et seq . These criteria, established through properly adopted \nregulations, must be adhered to by the Applicant. The purpose of the Water Quality Regulations is to maintain existing water quality uses and to serve the purposes of the \nClean Water Act. OWR is entitled to rely on state water quality standards as an \nassurance that maximum protection of the waters w ill be achieved. The substantial, \nreliable and probative evidence of record establishes that the water quality criteria will be met within the 7.9’ mixing zone. The Office of Water Resources does not have the \nauthority to require more stringent criteria than what is set forth in its Water Quality Regulations. Those Regulations are deemed protective of state surface waters unless \nproven otherwise. No such proof was proffered and Petitioners’ challenge in this regard \nis more appropriately characterized as an assault on the Regulations\n7 rather than the \nissue before me of whether the OWR met existing regulations in issuing the Permit. \n With regard to Petitioners’ assertion that OWR’s interpretation of “maximum protection” does not comport with the Regulations, Mr. Liberti explained OWR’s interpretation of the phrase and gave a reasoned explanation for that interpretation and \nthe manner in which “maximum protection” was accomplished in the Permit conditions. \nPetitioners have attempted to establish that the Permit should be more restrictive and \nshould require other alternatives to the proposed discharge. They propose a more \nnarrow interpretation of the phrase “maximum protection”. \n The challenges presented by Petitioners go to the heart of OWR’s approval \nmethodology and involve factual and scientific areas in which DEM’s expertise is heavily \n \n7 Challenges to existing regulations are not appropriate for consideration at this evidentiary hearing. R.I. \nGEN. LAWS §42-35-7 provides a procedure for challengin g the validity or applicability of rules. Should an \ninterested party seek to amend, re peal, or seek promulgation of a rule, the procedure for doing so is set \nforth in the Rhode Isla nd Administrative Procedures Act (R.I. GEN. LAWS §42-35-6). RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 28 \nimplicated. Not only is an agency entitled to deference with regard to factual questions \ninvolving scientific matters in its own area of expertise, but the degree of deference accorded increases when the agency interprets its own regulations. Adams v. U.S. \nE.P.A., 38 F. 3d 43 (1\nst Cir. 1994). An agency’s interpretation of its own regulations is \nentitled to substantial deference. Cohen v. Brown University, 101 F. 3d 155 (1st Cir \n1996). \n Assuming arguendo that some of the alternatives suggested by the Petitioners, \nincluding WET testing, may ultimately provide a greater degree of protection, Petitioners’ \nburden is to prove that, in issuing this Permit, OWR did not comply with existing \nRegulations. Not only have Petitioners failed to prove that OWR’s actions did not meet the requirements of the RIPDES and Water Quality Regulations as discussed in this \nDecision and Order, but the evidence of record establishes that issuance of the Permit \nwas in accord with existing Regulations. If the Applicant meets all existing regulatory \nrequirements, neither the hearing officer nor the Director has legal authority to impose \nmore stringent regulatory mandates. Newbay Corporation v. Annarummo , 587 A.2d 63 \n(RI 1991). Such action would constitute a new agency rule in violation of the procedures \nset forth in R.I. GEN. LAWS §42-35-3. Id., at 66. \n Petitioners have failed to sustain their burden of proving that OWR failed to comply with the requirements of RIPDES and Water Quality regulations discussed \nherein. The documentary and testimonial evidence offered by OWR and Applicant \nestablishes that issuance of the Permit complied with existing Regulations. \n Based on the testimonial and documentary evidence of record I make the \nfollowing \nFINDINGS OF FACT \n1. Sakonnet Point Club, Inc. proposes to build a multi-purpose yacht club and \nmarina on Bluff Head Avenue in Little Compton, Rhode Island, and proposes to RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 29 \nuse a reverse osmosis treatment system for the potable fresh water needs of the club. \n \n2. Employees of the Office of Water Resources, Department of Environmental \nManagement, received an application for a RIPDES permit on August 4, 2000 and determined the application complete on October 3, 2001. \n \n3. OWR issued a draft permit RIPDES Number RI0023558 on July 1, 2002. \n \n4. OWR opened a public comment period for the draft permit, RIPDES Number \nRI0023558 from July 17, 2002 to August 20, 2002. \n \n5. On August 19, 2002, OWR held a public hearing on draft permit, RIPDES \nRI0023558, at which Petitioners submitted oral and written comments. \n \n6. Pursuant to EPA oversight responsibilities for RIPDES permits, the draft permit \nwas forwarded to EPA Region I Rhode Island Office. EPA did not overfile on the Permit. \n \n7. On November 29, 2002, OWR issued RIPDES RI0023558 as a final permit, \naccompanied by a response to public comments and notification that “a formal hearing could be requested within 30 days of the receipt of this letter.” \n \n8. On December 31, 2002, John Karlsson filed a request for an adjudicative hearing \nwith the Administrative Adjudication division for Environmental Matters. \n \n9. On January 6, 2003, Mary W. Johnson filed a request for an adjudicative hearing \nwith the Administrative Adjudication division for Environmental Matters. \n \n10. Said Permit establishes a discharge flow limit of 3,000 gallons per day. The \nApplicant had proposed a maximum daily discharge of 7,500 gallons per day. \n \n11. The Permit will allow the discharge of concentrated brackish groundwater from a \nreverse osmosis treatment system used to desalinate on-site groundwater wells as the source for a public drinking water supply. \n \n12. The source of the brackish water to be desalinated are from three, deep bedrock \nwells. \n \n13. The concentrated brackish water from the reverse osmosis treatment system is \nproposed to be discharged by pipe and diffuser into the Sakonnet River. \n \n14. The groundwater is to be desalinated using a treatment system that consists of \npre-filtration, reverse osmosis, and ultraviolet disinfection. \n \n15. No discharge of chemicals used in cleaning or sanitizing the pretreatment of feed \nwater or coagulation treatment are allowed under the permit. \n \n16. Copper, arsenic and nickel were the only metals identified as being present in a \nconcentration above the laboratory detection limit in the groundwater. \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 30 \n17. The discharge has no reasonable potential to violate water quality criteria for \ndissolved oxygen. \n \n18. The discharge has no reasonable potential to violate water quality criteria for \nBOD, COD or TOC. \n \n19. The source water will be processed through a 25m pre-filter. \n \n20. As a result of pre-filtration, no measurable levels of total suspended solids are \nexpected in the discharge. \n \n21. The discharge has no reasonable potential to cause a violation of water quality \ncriteria for total suspended solids. \n \n22. The discharge has no reasonable potential to violate water quality criteria for \nTotal Dissolved Solids. \n \n23. The discharge has no reasonable potential to violate water quality criteria for \nammonia. \n \n24. The water quality criteria for temperature is a change of 1.6ºF at the boundary of \nthe mixing zone. \n \n25. The in-stream temperature change within the mixing zone (7.9 ft. radius) was \ncalculated to be 1º. \n \n26. The discharge has no reasonable potential to cause an exceedence of the in-\nstream temperature water quality criteria. \n \n27. OWR waived reporting requirements for BOD, TOC, COD, Temperature, TSS, \nTDS and Ammonia. \n \n28. New discharges from desalination facilit ies to Class SA waters are allowed in \naccordance with the Rhode Island Water Quality Regulations, Rule 9.E(2)(k). \n \n29. The Technical Support Document (“TSD”) is published by EPA and provides \nguidance to states in evaluating and analyzing RIPDES applications. \n \n30. OWR is not required to employ all provisions of the TSD. \n \n31. The proposed discharge is a minor discharge under the RIPDES Regulations. \n \n32. A non-thermal mixing zone was established in the Permit. \n \n33. A mixing zone is an area in the immediate vicinity of a discharge where mixing \noccurs and the receiving surface water quality is not required to meet applicable water quality criteria. \n \n34. The Permit establishes the radius of the approved acute mixing zone at 7.9 feet. \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 31 \n35. The Permit establishes the radius of the chronic mixing zone at 7.9 feet. The \ntotal area of the mixing zone is approximately 196 square feet. \n \n36. Applied Science Associates on behalf of Applicant evaluated the proposed \nsystem and employed the EPA sponsored “CORMIX” model to evaluate the dilution that would occur in the vicinity of the discharge \n \n37. According to modeling results, both chronic (CCC) and acute (CMC) water quality \ncriteria for copper, nickel and arsenic will be met at the edge of the mixing zone. \n \n38. EPA recommended criteria, used by OWR, are intended to address the most \nsensitive marine organisms that one would expect to be present in a marine environment. \n \n39. OWR relies on the EPA recommended criteria as an appropriate level of \nprotectiveness under its Regulations. \n \n40. Water Quality Regulation 8.D.(1).(f) requires that mixing zones shall provide for a \n“maximum protection” of fish and wildlife. \n \n41. No definition of “maximum protection” is provided in the Regulations. \n \n42. OWR does not interpret “maximum protection” as prohibiting a discharge. \n \n43. OWR has consistently interpreted “maximum protection” as allowing a mixing \nzone but requiring conditions and limitations that provide greater degrees of protection. \n \n44. OWR applied that interpretation to this Application and required the following: \n \na. The discharge be located outside the breakwater on the ocean side to \npromote better flushing and rapid mixing of effluent. \nb. The discharge pipe is located twenty (20´) from the seawall. \nc. The acute mixing zone be limited to a radius of 7.9 feet. \nd. The chronic mixing zone be limited to a radius of 7.9 feet. \ne. Use of anti-scaling compounds was prohibited. \nf. Use of chemicals in the discharge is prohibited. \ng. Maximum daily discharge be limited to 3,000 gallons per day. \n \n45. Whole effluent toxicity testing is not required by the Regulations. \n \n46. The discharge will not cause an ionic imbalance in the receiving waters. \n \n47. There will be no additive toxicity effects outside the mixing zone. \n \n48. The effluent that will be released into the mixing zone will be clear and without \nvisual impact. \n \n49. The discharge will not impact existing aesthetics in the mixing zone. \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 32 \n50. The discharge will not interfere with existing and designated waterbody uses in \nthe waterbody segment and beyond. \n \n51. The mixing zone comprises approximately 0.007 of lower Narragansett Bay and \n0.013 percent of the habitat in the lower Sakonnet River. \n \n52. To prohibit lethality to organisms passing through the mixing zone, OWR followed \nthe guidance in § 4.3.3 of the TSD and selected the most restrictive mixing zone diameter allowed. \n \n53. The mixing zone prohibits lethality to organisms passing through it. \n \n54. The mixing zone comprises less than one percent (<1%) of the linear distance \nacross the Sakonnet River mouth and does not block any migration, spawning or nursery area. \n \n55. The mixing zone allows for an appropriate zone of passage for migrating fish and \nother organisms. \n \n56. The impact of the mixing zone on habitat use is insignificant. \n \n57. Nursery and spawning habitat were adequately protected by limiting the size of \nthe acute and chronic mixing zone to 7.9’, limiting the discharge to 3,000 gallons per day and prohibiting the use of chemicals. \n \n58. Concentrations of copper, arsenic and nickel are well below human health criteria \nat the edge of the mixing zone. \n \n59. The discharge will not allow substances to accumulate in the sediment or \nfoodchain such that safe exposure levels for humans, fish and wildlife will be exceeded. \n \n60. The Sakonnet River, in the area of the discharge, is a high quality water. \n \n61. The discharge will consume less than tw enty percent (<20%) of the remaining \nassimilative capacity of the receiving water for copper, nickel and arsenic at the edge of the 450’ radius. \n \n62. The change in water quality at the edge of the 450’ radius is insignificant. \n \n \nCONCLUSIONS OF LAW \n After consideration of all the documentary and testimonial evidence of record, I \nconclude the following as a matter of law: \n1. Petitioners failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that OWR failed \nto meet the requirements of RIPDES Regulation 11.02(a)(14)(i)(A) in issuing \nthe Permit. \n RE: SAKONNET POINT CLUB, INC. AAD No. 02-007/WRA \nPERMIT NO. RI0023558 \nPage 33 \n2. Petitioners failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that OWR failed \nto meet the requirements of the Rhode Island Water Quality Regulations 8.D.(1).(f) and (g) in issuing this Permit. \n \n3. Petitioners failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that OWR failed \nto comply with the antidegradation requirements set forth in Rule 18 and the \nAntidegradation Implementation Policy of Appendix C of the Water Quality \nRegulations. \n \n4. Issuance of the Permit was in accord with the RIPDES and Water Quality \nRegulations. \n \n5. OWR’s interpretation of the phrase “maximum protection” was not arbitrary or \nan abuse of discretion. \n \n6. OWR’s interpretation of its own Regulations is entitled to substantial deference. \n \nBased on the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law it is hereby \n \n \nORDERED \n \n \n1. Applicant’s Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law is DENIED . \n \n2. Petitioners’ Appeals are DENIED AND DISMISSED . \n \n \n Entered as a Recommended Decision and Order and transmitted to the \nDirector for issuance as a Final Agency Decision and Order this 8th day of October, \n2003. \n \n \n _________________________________________ \n Kathleen M.

The agency transferring the asset out is referred to as the \"transfer out\" agency and the \nagency receiving the asset is referr ed to as the \"receiving agency\". \n \nThe book value of the asset is an important factor in determining how to record the transaction. \nIf the book value of the asset is less than $5,000, the agency transf erring will treat the transaction \nas a disposition, e.g., a donation or scrap, us ing transaction codes DD1 through DD4, depending \non the class of asset. The receiving agency can enter the acquisition by whatever method seems \nappropriate. \nIf the book value of the asse t is $5,000 or more, both ag encies should contact the DSAHelpline \nfor assistance. \nTO TRANSFER AN ASSET WITH A BOOK VALUE OF LESS \nTHAN $5,000 \nThe transfer out agency should dispose of the asset using the following steps: \n1. Type 35 at the FAS Main Menu and press ENTER. \n2. Enter an A in the FUNCTION field, and enter the property number and component \nnumber in the PROP NO and COMP NO fields. Confirm that the property and \ncomponent number exactly match the record in the FAS Property File (i.e., screen S040). \n3. Enter the sequence number (usually 0001) in the SEQ NO field. \n4. Enter the transaction code ( FAS TC) for the class code of the property number being \ndisposed. The FAS TC will be DD1, DD2, DD3, or DD 4. (Refer to FAS Descriptor \nTable 15.) \n5. Enter the status code in the STATUS field. \nFor a full disposition, enter the following: \n• D (disposed) \n6. Enter a disposition code (e.g., S (if Sold), D (donated or scrapped), etc.) in the DSP \nMTH field. (Refer to FAS Descriptor Table 22 for more disposition codes.) \n7. Enter the amount of cash act ually received in the ADT AMT field. \n8. Enter the three-digit number representing the pe rcentage of the asset being disposed in \nthe DISP % field. For a full disposition, enter 100. \n9. Enter the disposition date in the ADT DATE field. \nFAS Manual Transferring an Asset \nRev.

Enter the quantity in the QTY field. For a full disposition, the quantity should equal that \nof the asset in the FAS Property File. \n11. Press F1 or ENTER to post the record to the FAS Property File. \n• If you do not have disposition-release author ity (i.e., approval level 3 or lower), \n'INVALID APPROVAL LEVEL' will appear in the message section of the screen, \nand the status in the FAS Hold File record will be ' H'. \n• If you have disposition-release authority (i .e., approval level 4 or greater), 'RECORD \nADDED' will appear in the message secti on of the screen and there will be a ' P' in the \nFAS Hold File record. \n \nThe receiving agency should enter the acquisition using standard acquisition steps. Click here for \nsteps to enter acquisitions. \nTO TRANSFER AN ASSET WITH A BOOK VALUE OF $5,000 \nOR MORE \nFor either transferring out or receiving the asset, contact the DSAHelpline for assistance. \nFAS Manual Transferring an Asset \nRev.

This is a correction to message 3158307, dated 06/07/2013, to correct paragraph 1. \n \n2. Paragraph 1 of message 3158307 contains incorrect information about the company-specific\ncase numbers. Below is the fully corrected message.\n \n3. For all shipments of ball bearings and parts thereof from Germany produced and/or exported\nby firms listed below and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the\nperiod 05/01/2011 through 09/14/2011, liquidate all entries without regard to antidumping duties:\n \nProducer and/or Exporter: Audi AG\nCase Number: A-428-201-093\n \nProducer and/or Exporter: Bayerische Motoren Werke AG\nCase Number: A-428-201-000\n \nProducer and/or Exporter: Volkswagen AG\nCase Number: A-428-201-101\n \nProducer and/or Exporter: Volkswagen Zubehor GmbH\nCase Number: A-428-201-102\n \nProducer and/or Exporter: W&H Dentalwerk Burmoos GmbH \nCase Number: A-428-201-103\n \nCertain firms did not have their own case number during the period of review; entries may have\nbeen made under A-428-201-000 or other company-specific case numbers.\n \n4. Notice of the lifting of suspension of liquidation of entries of subject merchandise covered by\nparagraph 3 occurred with the publication of the final results of administrative review (78 FR\nMessage Date: 06/13/2013 Message Number: 3164303 Page 2 of 4 29702, 05/21/2013). The antidumping duty order on ball bearings and parts thereof from Germany\nwas revoked, effective 09/15/2011 (see message 1259303 dated 09/16/2011).\n \n5. There are no injunctions applicable to the entries covered by this instruction. \n \n6. The assessment of antidumping duties by CBP on shipments or entries of this merchandise is\nsubject to the provisions of section 778 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. Section 778\nrequires that CBP pay interest on overpayments or assess interest on underpayments of the\nrequired amounts deposited as estimated antidumping duties. The interest provisions are not\napplicable to cash or bonds posted as estimated antidumping duties before the date of publication\nof the antidumping duty order. Interest shall be calculated from the date payment of estimated\nantidumping duties is required through the date of liquidation. The rate at which such interest is\npayable is the rate in effect under section 6621 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 for such\nperiod.\n \n7. Upon assessment of antidumping duties, CBP shall require that the importer provide a\nreimbursement statement, as described in section 351.402(f)(2) of commerce’s regulations. The\nimporter should provide the reimbursement statement prior to liquidation of the entry. If the\nimporter certifies that it has an agreement with the producer, seller, or exporter, to be reimbursed\nantidumping duties, CBP shall double the antidumping duties in accordance with the above-\nreferenced regulation.

Cooper received over 6,000 requests\nfor 198 tickets.\n\r\n\r\n&ldquo;Clearly, Nashvillians of all ages, races, religions and backgrounds are excited about the inauguration of Barack\nObama,&rdquo; said Cooper, a longtime Obama supporter. &ldquo;I wish I had enough tickets for everyone who wanted\none, but I&rsquo;ve tried to be as fair as possible with the few I was given. This will be a historic occasion for our\ncountry.&rdquo;\n\r\n\r\nOnly those who contacted Cooper&rsquo;s office by last month&rsquo;s cutoff date will be eligible to participate in the\ndrawing. They have been contacted by mail or email and must respond by Thursday, December 18, to confirm their\ninterest in tickets.\n\r\n\r\nCooper and his staff are staying in touch with everyone who contacted the office about inaugural tickets in an effort to let\nthem know about free public events in Washington during the January 18-21 Inaugural festivities, which coincide with the\nMartin Luther King, Jr. holiday.  The National Mall will be open to the public for the occasion.\n\r\n\r\n&ldquo;No matter where you celebrate the occasion, all Americans have a reason to be proud on January 20,&rdquo;\nsaid Cooper. &ldquo;We face many huge challenges, but never before have I seen the country so ready for shared\nsacrifice and so optimistic about the next chapter in our history.&rdquo;\n\r\n\r\nMore information about the inaugural can be found at the official inaugural web sites: http://pic2009.org and\nhttp://inaugural.senate.gov/. \n\r\n\r\n\r\n###\n\r\n\rCongressman Jim Cooper\nhttp://www.cooper.house.gov Powered by Joomla!

TO HELP THE CUBAN PEOPLE ACHIEVE \nTHIS GOAL, THE PRESIDENT CREATED THE COMMISSION FOR \nASSISTANCE TO A FREE CUBA WITH A MANDATE TO HELP BRING AN END \nTO THE DICTATORSHIP, AND TO LAY OUT A PLAN FOR ASSISTANCE TO \nA FREE CUBA. \nTHE COMMISSION RECOMMENDED AN INTEGRATED, STRATEGIC APPROACH \nTO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF CIVIL SOCIETY IN CUBA AND LIMIT \nTHE REGIMES MANIPULATION OF HUMANITARIAN POLICIES TO \nACCUMULATE RESOURCES TO FINANCE REPRESSION. THE \nCOMMISSION,S RECOMMENDATIONS ARE BEING IMPLEMENTED. \nQ.

FOR \nSEVERAL HOURS, A PENNSYLVANIA AIR NATIONAL GUARD AIRCRAFT \nOPERATING WITHIN U.S. AIRSPACE BROADCAST A RADIO AND TV MARTI \nSIGNAL CAPABLE OF BEING RECEIVED IN CUBA. \nUNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED \nBUILDING ON THE EFFORTS OF CUBAN CIVIL SOCIETY, THESE TYPES \nOF BROADCASTS WILL INCREASE THE AVAILABILITY TO THE CUBAN \nPEOPLE OF RELIABLE INFORMATION ON EVENTS IN CUBA AND AROUND \nTHE WORLD. \nQ: DID THE BROADCAST INTERFERE WITH PRIVATE U.S. \nBROADCASTING? \nA: THE AIRBORNE BROADCAST OF TV MARTI WAS UNDERTAKEN ON A \nFREQUENCY ALREADY AUTHORIZED BY THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS \nCOMMISSION FOR TV MARTI BROADCASTS. \nWE UNDERSTAND THAT RADIO MARTI WAS BROADCAST ON A FREQUENCY \nNOT USED BY U.S. COMMERCIAL BROADCASTERS. \nTHE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION IS TAKING STEPS TO \nMINIMIZE POTENTIAL TV MARTI INTERFERENCE WITH DOMESTIC \nSTATIONS BY EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF THE BROADCASTS ON \nDOMESTIC LICENSEES. \nQ: IS THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE CONCERNED ABOUT POSSIBLE \nHOSTILE ACTION AGAINST U.S. PERSONNEL IN RESPONSE TO THE \nBROADCASTS?

HOWEVER, \nPRECAUTIONS HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO MINIMIZE THE THREATS TO U.S. \nPERSONNEL FROM CUBAN FIGHTER AIRCRAFT INTERCEPTS OR OTHER \nDIRECT THREATS AGAINST THE AIRCRAFT. \nTHESE BROADCASTS WERE MADE ONLY IN U.S. AIRSPACE. ANY \nATTEMPT TO INTERCEPT THE AIRCRAFT WOULD BE TREATED AS A \nHOSTILE ACT AND APPROPRIATE SELF-DEFENSE MEASURES WOULD BE \nTAKEN. \nQ: CASTRO HAS LONG CLAIMED THAT THE U.S. INTENDS TO TAKE \nMILITARY ACTION AGAINST CUBA. IS THIS THE FIRST STEP IN THAT \nPROCESS? \nA: THE POLICY OF THE UNITED STATES IS TO HASTEN A PEACEFUL \nTRANSITION TO DEMOCRACY IN CUBA. THAT POLICY HAS BEEN \nARTICULATED AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF OUR GOVERNMENT, \nINCLUDING BY SECRETARY POWELL. \nTV MARTI HAS TRANSMITTED ITS SIGNAL TO CUBA FOR OVER A \nDECADE, AND ITS SIGNAL IS ROUTINELY JAMMED BY THE REGIME. \nOUR HOPE IS THAT THESE BROADCASTS WILL ENABLE THE CUBAN \nPEOPLE TO HAVE ACCESS TO UNCENSORED INFORMATION ABOUT CUBA \nAND THE WORLD. \nUNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED \nQ: HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY PROTESTS FROM THE CUBAN GOVERNMENT \nCONCERNING THESE BROADCASTS? \nA: THE CUBAN GOVERNMENT HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT RADIO AND TV \nMARTI BROADCASTS SINCE THEIR INCEPTION. WE HAVE NO DOUBT \nTHAT THE REGIME WILL CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR EFFORTS \nTO PROVIDE DETAILED AND ACCURATE INFORMATION TO THE CUBAN \nPEOPLE ABOUT EVENTS OUTSIDE OF CUBA. \nIT IS OUR POSITION THAT THE MORE CUBANS KNOW ABOUT THE WORLD \n-- AND THE WORLD KNOWS THE TRUTH ABOUT CUBA -- THE BETTER THE \nCHANCES OF A RAPID AND PEACEFUL TRANSITION TO DEMOCRACY, \nWHICH IS THE CENTRAL GOAL OF THE UNITED STATES AND ITS ALLIES \nIN EUROPE AND LATIN AMERICA. \nONLY IF ASKED: \nB5 \nPOWELL \nNNNN \nUNCLASSIFIED " }

Waxman finds that under Democratic proposals:\n \n - Almost 14 million Medicare beneficiaries could save over $60 billion in premiums,\ncopays, and other out-of-pocket drug costs. Democrats have proposed allowing the\nMedicare program to negotiate for lower drug prices, which could reduce prices by 25% or\nmore. There are 8.7 million Medicare beneficiaries nationwide enrolled in Medicare drug plans\nwho pay their own premiums and copays, and they could expect average savings of almost\n$500 annually if Medicare negotiated for 25% lower drug prices. The total savings over the next\ndecade for these beneficiaries would be $61 billion. If beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare HMOs\nreceived similar discounts, the total savings over the next decade would be $96 billion.\n \n - Over six million Medicare beneficiaries could avoid the “donut hole.” Drug benefits\nunder standard Medicare drug plans end once beneficiaries have used $2,250 worth of drugs\nand do not begin again until they have used over $5,100 worth of drugs. The latest estimates\nindicate that 6.2 million beneficiaries nationwide will hit the donut hole this year, resulting in\naverage out-of-pocket costs of $1,700 per beneficiary. Democratic reform proposals in\nCongress would provide enough savings to eliminate or significantly reduce the size of the\ndonut hole. \n - Over one million Medicare beneficiaries could avoid hundreds of dollars in\npenalties. Enrollment in the Medicare drug program has been well below expectations,\nwith over four million Medicare beneficiaries failing to sign up with a Medicare drug plan prior to\nthe May 15, 2006, deadline. An estimated 1.1 million of these beneficiaries are now subject to\nlifetime penalties that could cost each individual almost $500 to over $1,000 over the next\ndecade. Democratic reform proposals would give these beneficiaries an opportunity to\nparticipate in a Medicare drug plan without these unnecessary penalties. \n Documents and Links\n \n - Benefits of Proposed Democratic Medicare Drug Program Reforms \n \n 1 / 1" }

The most significant reason why the Act has not yet fully realized its true \npotential has been a lack of investment, which your bill addresses through several Sense of the Senate \nstatements. \n \nReauthorization of the OAA as increasing waves of Baby Boomers turn 65 is crucial to ensure that successes \nof the Act can be better leveraged, and innovation continues to be fostered to meet the needs of today's \nseniors. Proposals in your legislation that seize this opportunity include those which define economic security \nand significantly establish it as a goal of the Act, emphasize the delivery of evidence-based chronic disease \nself-management and falls prevention, promote senior center modernization, enhance the Senior Community \nServices Employment Program (SCSEP), and strengthen legal assistance and other elder justice provisions. \nTogether, these improvements can empower seniors and improve their health and economic security, bend \ndownward the long-term entitlements cost curve, and promote greater program efficiency and coordination. \n \nWe applaud your ongoing efforts to move OAA reauthorization forward, and we look forward to continuing to \nwork with you to promote a bipartisan process that remains true to the history of this important legislation. \n \nSincerely, \n \n \nJames P. Firman, Ed.D. \nPresident & CEO \n \n \n \n \nMay 20, 2013 \n \nThe Honorable Bernard Sanders \nUnited States Senate \n332 Dirksen Senate Office Building \nWashington, D.C. 20515 \n \nDear Senator Sanders, \n \nThe Strengthen Social Security Coalition is comprised of over 350 national and statewide organizations, \nincluding labor, womens, aging, disability, veterans and civil rights groups, whose goal is to strengthen \nSocial Security benefits for current and future beneficiaries. We are writing to express our unwavering \nsupport for the reauthorization of the Older Americans Act. This vital piece of legislation has created \noutlets of support for seniors to live in their communities with independence and dignity since 1965 \nwhen it was signed into law . \n \nThe Older Americans Act reauthorization directs the Bureau of Labor Statistics to create a more robust \nversion of the Consumer Price Index for the elderly (CPI-E) which is a more accurate measure of costs for \nseniors. As compared to the rest of the population, the average senior disproportionately spends a \nsubstantially larger portion of their income on health care, heating, cooling and other housing costs. \nAdjusting the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) to reflect inflation based on the CPI-E would afford a \nmore accurate Social Security benefit for thousands of seniors across America who currently only \nreceive a modest income. \n \nThis reauthorization would strengthen the Older Americans Act by reauthorizing all programs through FY \n2018 and requesting a 12 percent increase in appropriations from FY 2010 in order to address the needs \nof the baby boom generation. Updating the definitions of social and economic need to include outreach \nto LGBT individuals, veterans, and those with Alzheimer’s disease is essential to providing quality \nassistance to a diverse and growing senior population . The reauthorization also introduces efforts to \nprotect seniors from abuse and authorizes new grants to strengthen the environment of senior and \ncaregiver supports around the country- including the creation of the National Resource Center on Family \nCaregiving . \n \nThe reauthorization of the Older Americans Act is critical to ensuring the wellbeing of seniors in the \nUnited States who are committed to living out their days in the comfort of their own communities.

Clarifying that residents have regular, timely, private and unimpeded access to LTCOP services strengthens residents’ rights to assistance from our Program. Improving the ability of the LTCOP to access all records pertaining to residents and clarifying that the LTCOP is a Health \nOversight Agency improves the LTCOP’s ability to investigate and resolve resident complaints. Removing organizational conflicts of interest and clarifying the relationship between the State Long-\nTerm Care Ombudsman and designated local entities ensures the independence of the LTCOP and strengthens the unity of statewide LTCOPs under the leadership of the State Long- Term Care \nOmbudsman. Restoring maintenance of effort provisions that protect federal and state funding for the \nProgram and increasing funding in Title VII will protect our ability to ensure regular and timely access to Ombudsman services. Authorizing Title IIIE National Family Caregiver Program funding to support the \nwork of the LTCOP in helping establish and assist family councils in long- term care facilities, identifies \nan unmet need to support family caregivers who continue to care for loved ones. \n We applaud your vision and efforts to improve the whole Act and especially your attention to the often-\nneglected l ong-term care system. NASOP enthusiastically supports your efforts and this important \nlegislation that protects the rights of all residents of long- term care facilities. We look forward to working \nwith you as the OAA reauthorization process moves ahead. \n Sincerely, \n \nJoseph Rodrigues \nPresident \n William Lamb, President \nSarah F.

We support this critical \nlegislation, which is a much-needed first step towards reauthorizing essential Older Americans Act \nprograms, and are particularly pleased that it includes provisions to protect the rights and well-\nbeing of elders living in long-term care facilities, as well as those at home and in the community. \nAs you are aware, residents of long-term care facilities need effective advocacy in order to ensure \nthat they receive the quality of care and quality of life they deserve and are entitled to by law. The \npurpose of the\n Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program is to provide residents with access to such \nadvoca\ncy. The Older Americans Act Amendments of 2013 would strengthen and improve this \nprogram’s effectiveness in a number of important ways. This legislation would clarify both \norganiz\national and individual conflicts of interest within the program; clarify that the State \nOmbudsman is responsible for the management of the Office of the State Long-Term Care \nOmbudsman, including\n the office’s fiscal management; improve resident access to ombudsmen; \nand e\nnsure that State Ombudsmen receive ongoing training. It would also enhance the ability of \nthe Nati\nonal Ombudsman Resource Center to train and support both state and local ombudsmen by \nincreasing the Center’s funding. \nFurther\nmore, older adults receiving services and supports at home also deserve similar protections \nto ensure they are receiving high-quality care and a good quality of life. Yet these individuals have \nfew, if a\nny, rights and protections under current law. The Older Americans Act Amendments of \n2013 would guarantee home care consumers basic rights, including the right to safety, as well as \ninformation about costs, choice, and redress of grievances. The legislation would also advance the \ndevelopm\nent of ombudsman advocacy for home care consumers, who are frequently just as frail \nand vulnerable as nursing home residents. \n \nThe Consumer Voice thanks you and your staff for the hard work and dedication that led to the \nintroduction of the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2013 . We look forward to continuing to \nwork with your office in support of this vital bill during the coming months. \n \nSincere\nly, \n \nSara\nh Wells Robyn Grant \nExecutive Director Director of Public Policy & Advocacy \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nThe National Consumer Voice for Quality Long-Term Care (formerly NCCNHR) is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit membership \norganization founded in 1975 by Elma L.

We applaud you for your efforts to strengthen \nthe services and supports of the OAA and help make them available to all older adults. Hispanic \nseniors often struggle to access services that are available in their communities, but it is NHCOA’s \nhope that your amendments will help them get the assistance they need to live independently and in \nthe best possible health. \n \nThe population of older adults in the United States is growing quickly, and the OAA needs to reflect \nthis changing demographic. NHCOA strongly supports the increased funding requested for the \nvitally important meals, transportation, caregiver support, and employment training that the OAA \nprovides. F\nor many years, parts of the OAA have gone without funding increases. The increased \nfunding of the OAA Amendments of 2013 will allow service providers to meet the increased demand \ncreated by the growing population of older adults. \n \nNHCOA is also happy that the OAA Amendments of 2013 place a priority on the delivery of services \nand supports in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner. In addition to growing larger, the \npopulation of older adults in the U.S. is also become more diverse. Currently, cultural and linguistic \nbarriers make it difficult for Hispanic older adults to access available services. The OAA \nAmendments of 2013 help break down those barriers. Prioritizing services that meet the unique \ncultural and linguistic needs of older adults is a tremendous step forward for the OAA. \n \nThank you for leadership and for your support of older adults. NHCOA looks forward to working \nwith you to further improve the lives of Hispanic older adults, their families, and caregivers. \n \nSincerely, \n \n \nYanira Cruz, Dr.PH \nPresident & CEO \n 1140 19th Street, NW ∙ Suite 550 ∙ Washington, DC ∙ 20036 ∙ wiserwomen.org \n \n May 22, 2013 \n \nThe Honorable Bernard Sanders \nChairman, Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging \nCommittee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions \nU.S. Senate, 648 Dirksen Senate Office Building \nWashington, DC 20510 \n \n \nDear Chairman Sanders: \n \n It is with great pleasure that I write in support of the Older Americans Act Reauthorization legislation that \nyou are introducing this week. Please add the Women's Institute for a Secure Retirement (WISER) to your \nlist of supporters. I truly appreciate all of your efforts to strengthen and expand the programs under the \nOAA in both this Congress and in the 112th Congress. \n \n The importance of the Older Americans Act to millions of older adults should not be underestimated. The \nimpact and influence of the OAA is felt far and wide but intimately, too, in the meals that seniors eat every \nday, and in the protections and assistance that individuals receive from the many and varied programs and \nservices. \n \n The programs of WISER and the National Education and Resource Center on Women and Retirement \nPlanning are great examples of OAA programs that reach older adults in one of the most important ways \npossible: by protecting women from financial exploitation and poverty in their older years. As you know, \nthe center, administered by WISER, plays a critical role in addressing financial literacy and predatory \npractices. Predatory practices cost Americans $25 billion annually, robbing women, particularly elderly \nwomen, of precious assets and putting their home ownership at risk. The face of the victim is often a “cash \npoor, house rich” elderly widow, often African American, less-educated, and vulnerable. These are the \nindividuals that make up WISER’s audience and the people to whom WISER focuses its outreach. \n \n Being a target when you are at this vulnerable stage of your life has extreme consequences – being \nswindled out of your life savings is not only devastating but also life threatening. Older women are targeted \nnot only by strangers who are con artists, unscrupulous salespeople, contractors or others, but by those who \nare known to them and who have power over them such as family caregivers or someone with a power of \nattorney or other fiduciary obligation. WISER has partnered with the National Adult Protective Services \nAssociation to develop education materials, training programs, and outreach to educate, recognize, and \nprevent elder financial exploitation. \n \n In closing, let me again thank you for introducing this important piece of legislation that supports some of \nthe most effective and essential programs that we offer older Americans. Please let me know how I may be \nof assistance during the upcoming legislative process. \n \nSincerely, \n \n \n \n \nCindy Hounsell \nPresident \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nMay 20, 2013 \n \nThe Honorable Bernard Sanders \nUnited States Senate \n332 Dirksen Senate Office Building \nWashington, D.C. 20515 \n \nDear Senator Sanders, \n \nWe are delighted to express our firm support for the reauthorization of the Older Americans Act. We are \nparticularly pleased with the CPI-E provision, as discussed below. Since 1965, this Act has helped millions \nof seniors live with independence and dignity within their own homes and communities . The Older \nAmericans Act created the primary organizing tool, the Administration on Aging, statewide Area \nAgencies on Aging, as well as programs like Meals on Wheels, and various volunteer services. These \nprograms have allowed thousands of older adults the flexibility and autonomy in deciding the type of \nenvironment they would like to live in during their later years. \n \nThis reauthorization addresses the shortfalls of seniors’ current economic security by directing the \nBureau of Labor Statistics to create a more robust version of the Consumer Price Index for the Elderly \n(CPI-E) within a 2 year window. Current benefits are very modest. The current CPI does not adequately \nreflect seniors’ disproportionally large housing and health care expenditures relative to other age \ngroups. As a consequence, benefits erode over time. This CPI-E would create a more accurate measure \nof the true cost of living seniors experience, which would help alleviate some financial strain as they age. \n \nThe Older Americans Act reauthorization is vital to ensuring the wellbeing of the growing senior \npopulation in the United States. The coordinated systems of services enacted by this reauthorization \nwould revitalize an essential piece of legislation in order to accommodate the needs of the growing \nsenior population. \n \nWe applaud your continued leadership on the Older Americans Act, and we are honored to endorse this \nlegislation. \n \n Sincerely, \n \n \n Nancy Altman Eric Kingson \n Coalition Co-Chair Coalition Co-Chair \n \n \n \nMay 2 2, 2013 \n The Honorable Bernard Sanders, Chairman \nSubcommittee on Primary Health and Aging \nSenate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee United States Senate \n428 Senate Dirksen Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Sanders : \n The National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys wishes to express its support for your bill, the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2013. We thank you and your staff for the many hours that you have spent listening to stakeholders from across the country, establishing goals for this reauthorization, and drafting the bill that you plan to introduce this week. This is an important step in what should be an open, \nbipartisan, and bicameral process of reauthorizing this important law. In particular, we believ e that your continuing commitment to strengthen the quality of and access to legal \nservices for older adults is essential in this reauthorization. In addition, your provisions that recognize that the long-term care ombudsman program can be significantly i mproved by changes to the current law \nthat will not demand any additional resources are greatly appreciated . Moreover , your bill adds important \nlanguage consistent with the Elder Justice Act that will promote the fight against elder abuse, neglect, and \nexploitation on the federal, state, and local levels. \n NAELA is a professional association consisting of more than 4,300 attorneys who advocate for the rights of seniors and people with disabilities. Elder law attorneys are specialized and trained in a va riety of \nareas in the law that address an individual’s long- term care needs. We thank you for including our \nperspectives in the process and your steadfast commitment to providing much needed services to older adults, particularly those in the greatest eco nomic and social need. \n Our members see clients every day who have benefited or could benefit from OAA programs, and we are \nstrong supporters of its reauthorization in the 113\nth Congress. Please let us know what we can do to help \nyou in this ef fort. \n Sincerely, \n \n \n \nPeter G. Wacht, CAE Gregory S.

We urge Senators to support this legislation and reauthorize \nthe Older Americans Act with sufficient funding to meet the needs of seniors as soon as \npossible. \n \nJFNA represents 154 Jewish Federations & over 300 independent Jewish communities. \nThe Jewish Federations, collectively among the top 10 charities on the continent, \nprotects and enhances the well-being of Jews worldwide through the values of tikkun \nolam (repairing the world), tzedakah (charity and social justice) and Torah (Jewish \nlearning). AJFCA is the membership association for approximately 125 Jewish Family \nService agencies across the United States and Canada. Ranging in size from small \ndepartments of local Jewish Federations to some of the largest human services agencies \nin North America, our members provide vital services to clients of all ages, faiths and \neconomic backgrounds. They counsel families, feed the hungry, assist the elderly and \nprotect the vulnerable. We are united by the values of our Jewish tradition and work \ntogether toward our common goal of tikkun olam , repairing the world. \n \nOur network is comprised of experts in aging services for all seniors and we make up \nthe primary social service providers for Holocaust survivors in the United States. As \npeople who work with Holocaust survivors in their homes and in the community, we \nare reminded each day of the importance of enabling Holocaust survivors to remain \nsafely at home with their communities. The negative effects of isolation can be \ndevastating for survivors who also face financial challenges and fewer family members \nto help care for them. The ability to help provide that comfort and quality of life will be \nenhanced if the Responding to Urgent needs of Survivors of the Holocaust (RUSH) Act, \nwhi\nch is incorporated into this reauthorization bill, were to become law. \n \nWe also strongly support efforts to provide congregate and home-delivered meals that \nare culturally appropriate based on religious or ethnic requirement or health-related \nconcerns; funding of Title IV to help develop and carry out innovative demonstration \nprojects that advance and sustain healthy, efficient, and independent community-based \naging; strengthening the National Family Caregiver Support program; and funding for \nthe Senior Community Service Employment Program; among other important \ninitiatives supported by the Older Americans Act. \n \nJFN\nA and AJFCA look forward to cooperating with members of the Senate to move \nreauthorization of the Older Americans Act forward.

Since its original passage in 1964, tens of millions of seniors have benefited \nfrom the services provided by the OAA. Among those services are the employment services provided \nunder Title V -Community Service Senior Opportunities Act, commonly referred to as the Senior \nCommunity Service Employment Program (SCSEP). SCSEP is a program administered by the United States Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration that helps low-income people \nwho are 55 and older to return to or remain active in the workforce. The recession that began in 2008 seriously hurt the standard of living for many seniors, moving many from middle- income to low -income \nbrackets. At a time when our fragile eco nomy continues to struggle to recover from the recession, the \nimportance of the SCSEP program has never been greater. \nThe Older American Act Amendments of 2013 will require the Assistant Secretary for Aging and the \nSecretary of Labor to conduct a feasibili ty study and submit a report to Congress on the proposed transfer \nof the Senior Community Service Employment Program from the Department of Labor Employment and \nTraining Administration to the Health and Human Services Administration on Aging. While Goodwi ll \nsupports keeping the SCSEP program located within the Department of Labor, it also supports the study language that will be part of the proposed legislation. Goodwill believes such a study would provide \ngreater clarity on Title V’s interconnection with other Titles within OAA and provide Congress and the \nAdministration with more data on how significant SCSEP’s role is as a workforce development program \nfor our nation’s most at-risk seniors. \nWe appreciate your efforts on behalf of older Americans, especially in these difficult times.

The D evelopmental Disabilities , Autism and Family Support \nTask Force of the Consortium for Ci tizens with Disabilities (CCD) greatly appreciates the proposed \namendments to the National Family Caregiver Support program (NFCSP) and the Aging and Disability \nResource Centers (ARDCs) . \n \nThe NFCSP was the first federal program to recognize the needs of the nation’s family caregivers who provide \nthe vast majority of long -term services and supports. NFCSP not only funds respite, but individual counseling, \nsupport groups, and caregiver training f or family caregivers, primarily for those who are caring for the aging \npopulation. Unfortunately, the NFC SP currently is only available to caregivers of persons age 60 and over. \nYour bill would make the program available to the increasing number of Americ ans who need it by including \ncaregivers of their adult child ren (age 19 to 59) with disabilities . This needed improvement would not come a \nmoment too soon. \nThere are over 730,000 caregive rs of persons with intellectual and developmental disabil ities who are over the \nage of 60 and this number is projected to grow substantially with the aging of the baby boom generation. \nPeople with intellectual and developmental disabilities are also living longer due to medical advances. As \nparents of these individuals age, they will require more support to be able to continue providing care to their \nadult children and avoiding costly and unwanted institutional placement . \n The aging of the caregiver population is central to another welcome provision in the bill – the a ddition of \nADRCS assist ing aging caregivers and adults with disabilities with future planning . The lack of family future \nplanning often result s in inappropriate residential placements , loss of intended inheritance, and jeopardizes \naccess to needed services for adults with disabilities as they age. For instance, long waiting lists preclude \nappropriate community -based residential options for many individuals with lifelong disabilities . Providing future \nplanning services will provide immense relief to aging caregivers who frequently report that they are “afraid to \ndie.” \n More than at any other time, when M edicaid , Medicare, and Social Security are being severely threatened, \nhelping family caregivers to continue providing long-term se rvices and supports is good public policy . We look \nforward to working with you on the reauthorization of the Older Americans Act that will improve services for our \nnation’s caregivers. \n \n1825 K Street, NW, Suite 1200 • Washington, DC 20006 • PH 202- 783- 2229 • FAX 202- 783-8250 • Info@c- c-d.org • www.c -c-d.org \n \n \n \nCCD is a coalition of national disability organizations working together to advocate for national public policy \nthat ensures the self -determination, independence, empowerment, integration and inclusion of children and \nadults with disabilities in all aspects of society. \nFor more information, please contact any of the following Task Force Co -Chairs: \n \nKim Musheno , Association of University Centers on Disabilities kmusheno@aucd.org 301-588-8252 \nAnnie Acosta, The Arc acosta@thearc.org 202-783-2229 \nCindy Smith, National Disability Rights Network cindy.smith@ndrn.org 202-408-9514 \nPeggy Hathaway, National Association of Councils on \nDevelopmental Disabilities phathaway@nacdd.org 202-506-5813 \nJill Kagan, ARCH National Respite Network and Resource \nCenter jbkagan@verizon.net 703-256-2084 \n \nMay 21, 2013 \nThe Hono rable Bernard Sanders, Chairman \nRetirement and Aging Subcommittee \nHealth, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee \nUnited States Senate \nWashington, DC 20510 \n \nDear Chairman Sanders: \nOn behalf of the millions of members and supporters of the National Committee to Preserve Social Security \nand Medicare, I am writing to thank you for introducing the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2011, which reauthorizes the Older Americans Act (OAA). We share your hope that this legislation and other proposals to \nstrengthen the OAA will receive bipartisan support in Congress early in 2012. Older Americans Act programs \n– such as in -home assistance, home -delivered and congregate meals, respite for family caregivers, preventive \nhealth services, job training and placement, and legal services - benefit individuals and their families. By \nhelping seniors stay as independent as possible in their homes and communities, these programs also save federal and state government resources from being spent on sometimes unnecessary and often much more \nexpensive care in hospitals and nursing homes. We understand that your legislation improves the OAA \nprograms. In addition, your bill acknowledges that there is simply not enough money allocated for OAA programs to meet the needs of our growing elderly population. \nThe National Committee also applauds you for the provision in the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2011 which requires the Secretary of Labor to revise and improve the experimental price index for the elderly, \ncommonly referred to as the CPI -E, so that it can be considered as a replacement for the consumer price index \nthat is being used to adjust Social Security benefits for inflation. We believe that the CPI -E is based on a \nmarket basket of goods that more accurately reflects the spending patterns of the elderly and thus is a better index for the purpose of protecting seniors from the harmful effects of inflation. Revising and improving the \nexperim ental CPI -E is an essential first step in its adoption as the CPI of record for the Social Security \nprogram. \nThank you for your leadership on the Older Americans Act reauthorization. We look forward to working with \nyou to strengthen these important programs that go a long way toward ensuring economic security and \nindependence for older Americans and their family caregivers. \nSincerely, \nSherrie Dornberger \nSherrie Dornberger, RN, CDONA, CDP, GDCN, FACDONA \nExecutive Director NADONA/LTC \n11353 Reed Hartman Hwy., Suite 210 \nCincinnati, OH. 45241 \n \n \n \n \nMay 22, 2013 \n \nTo: Sophie Kasimow, Staff Director, HELP Subcommittee on Primary Health & Aging \n \nFrom: Lisa Pugh, Public Policy Coordinator, Wisconsin’s Disability Policy Partnership \n \nRe: Older Americans Act reauthorization bill \n \nI am writing to indicate our agency’s support for the Older Americans Act reauthorization bill to be introduced by Senator Sanders. Our agency had previously worked with Senator \nKohl’s office on many of these important issues. This bill includes an important fix to the \nNational Family Caregiver Support Program to include older relative caregivers of adults with disabilities. It also amends the core functions of ADRCs to include that they assist \naging caregivers and adults with disabilities with future planning. The language on \ncaregiver assessments will also be extremely helpful for aging caregivers of adults with \ndisabilities. \n Thank you for your work on this bill.

AMDA is the professional association of nursing home medical directors, nursing home attending physicians, and other professionals practicing in the post-acute and long term care continuum. We work to ensure excellence in patient care and to promote the delivery of quality post- acute and long term care medicine. \n AMDA supports the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2013, particularly its \nprovisions to strengthen the eldercare workforce and continue funding the long term care ombudsman program. Provisions in your legislation which contribute to these important goals include those that strengthen support for family and informal \ncaregivers through grants to states to conduct assessments of family or informal caregiver needs, test new innovative models of person and family- centered care that \nencourage well -coordinated, interdisciplinary team care, test models that provide \ndirect -care workers with additional training for new roles, and direct the \nAdministration on Aging to work with other federal agencies to identify and address eldercare workforce shortages. Also included is support for the Long Term Care \nOmbudsman Program, which addresses the many and varied problems facing long term care residents. State Ombudsmen play an important role in protecting nursing home residents, especially in promoting the development of citizen organizations and family residence councils. \n AMDA looks forward to continued engagement in the OAA reauthorization process. Our nation faces a severe and growing shortage of eldercare providers with the skills and training to meet the unique health care needs of older adults. AMDA is \ncommitted to supporting the reauthorization of the OAA as it invests in building and maintaining an eldercare workforce that supports well-coordinated, high quality care for older adults. \n \nSincerely, \n \n \nChristopher Laxton, CAE \nExecutive Director \n \n \nMay 21, 2013 The Honorable Bernie Sanders United States Senate \n332 Dirksen Building Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Senator Sanders: \n We are writing to extend our most grateful thanks to you for writing and introducing the reauthorization of The Older Amer icans Act. \n Donated Dental Services (DDS) is a national initiative sponsored by our organization which is affiliated with the American Dental Association. We provide comprehensive pro bono dental care through a network of more than 15,000 volunteer dentists assisted by 3,200 participating laboratories. The program is overwhelmed by requests for assistance from individuals who require dental care to address their medical needs for conditions such as diabetes, cancers, cardiovascular diseases, renal dysfunc tion, autoimmune diseases, and mental health challenges. They \ncannot afford the dental care and have no insurance for it. Many more dentists are willing to participate in the DDS program and \nsimilar charitable service initiatives. However, they will not be effectively engaged without the social work infrastructure such project s \nrequire to match needy patients with available dental volunteers. The \nprovision in the Reauthorization of the Older Americans Act authorizing support for that purpose will mobili ze the dental profession’s service \npotential to produce significant treatment for many very vulnerable individuals. And because of the eligibility focus on needy elderly, disabled, and medically compromised individuals, many of whom are \nMedicare and/or Medicaid beneficiaries, this process will likely save more money than it costs, since costly medical complications will undoubtedly be prevented. Again, we re extremely appreciative of all your continuing efforts to improve services to our nation’s elderly and disabled members, and we’re eager to assist you in any way we can in helping to bring your efforts to fruition. \n Respectfully, \n \nBruce Vladeck, Ph.D. Larry Coffee, DDS \nBoard Member Founder and CEO \nMay 22, 2013 \n \nThe Honorable Bernie Sanders \nChairman \nPrimary Health and Aging Subcommittee \nSD- 648 Dirksen Office Building \nWashington, DC 20510 \n \n \nDear Chairman Sanders: \n \nOn behalf of our 156,000 members, we thank you for including important oral health \nprovisions in 2013 the Older Americans Act (OAA) reauthorization. We believe that these \nadditions are important for increasing access to needed oral health care for senior citizens. \nSec. 425 in the bill provides for a grant program that will support national dental programs to \ncoordinate medically recommended dental care for low income individuals. The dental care \nwill be provided by volunteer dentists at no cost to patients who have medical conditions – \nlike diabetes, cancer, autoimmune disease, kidney disease or need heart or joint \nreplacements or transplants. \nThis legislation is needed because Medicare, which does not cover routine dental services, \nwill not pay for the coordination of medically recommended dental care, thereby preventing \nmany underserved patients from getting needed care or compromising an existing chronic \ncondition. \nThis program will reduce Medicare and Medicaid costs. For example, kidney dialysis \npatients need to be able to consume enough protein to stabilize their condition. If a patient \ncannot eat properly, physicians have to insert a feeding tube. A 2001 study reported that the \nestimated one year cost of feeding a patient through a tube is $31,832. Under this bill, a \npatient in this condition would receive free oral health services from a volunteer dentist and \navoid the need of a feeding tube. \nIt has been estimated that the $2 million grant investment authorized in this bill will return \nroughly $13 million in medical ly-necessary, pro bono dental treatment and will help 5,000 \nMedicare and/or Medicaid beneficiaries. \nWe are also pleased that you have included dental expenses in Sec. 209 of the bill, which \nrequires the Secretary of Labor to revise the Experimental Price Index for the Elderly \ncommonly referred to as the CPI-E. Adults increasingly are keeping their teeth well into old \nage, placing increasing demands for services on the dental profession as well as incurring \nmore expense as consumers. Dental care is paid for much differently than most medical \ncare; therefore indexing dental expenditures will be helpful in understanding the impact of \nthese expenses on the elderly. We anticipate that the greater number of elderly individuals \nrequiring dental care will change the way dentistry is practiced in the future. Including dental May 22, 2013 \nPage 2 \nexpenses in the CPI-E will help the dental profession better understand the impact of those \nexpenditures. \nThank you again for including these oral health provisions in the Older American Act \nreauthorization. This is the first time in the history of the OAA that oral health care has been \nincluded. \nSincerely, \n \n \n \nRobert A. Faiella, D.M.D., M.M.Sc. \nPresident \n \n \nKathleen T. O’Loughlin, D.M.D., M.P.H. \nExecutive Director \n \n \n \n \n 1 \n \n \n \n \n \nMay 22, 2013 \n \nThe Honorable Bernie Sanders \nChair, Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging \nCommittee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions \n428 Senate Dirksen Office Building \nWashington, DC 20510 \n \nDear Senator Sanders: \nOn behalf of The Arc of the United States, I wish to express my sincere appreciation for your \nOlder Americans Act reauthorization bill . This legislation offers significant improvements for \nour nation’s family caregivers who provide the vast majority of long term services and \nsupports. \nFor more than 60 years, The Arc has worked to ensure that people with intellectual and \ndevelopmental disabilities have the supports and services they need to live as independently \nand productively as possible. Through our network of over 700 state and local chapters and \n140,000 members, we have helped to create basic protections and opportunities for the more than 7 million people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the U.S. \nMore than 65 million Americans provide care for a loved one who has a disability, is chronically ill, or is elderly and spend an average of 20 hours per week providing care. For \ncaregivers of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) the levels of \nresponsibility are not only greater, but frequently lifelong. \nThere are approximately 2.9 million family caregivers of persons with I/DD in the U.S. \nAccording to The Arc’s Family and Individual Needs for Disability Supports (FINDS) survey, \nmost of these family caregivers provide more than 40 hours of care per week (including 40% \nwho provide more than 80 hours of care per week). As our society continues to depend on the active engagement of family caregivers for the s upport of individuals with I/DD, it is essential \nto meet the needs of those caregivers to continue providing care in the community instead of more costly and unwanted institutions. \nFamily caregivers of people with I/DD urgently need the services provided by the National \nFamily Caregiver Support program (NFCSP) created by the Older Americans Act . Your \nlegislation would finally make the NFCSP available to the majority of them who have been \nexcluded from the program – caregivers of persons with I/DD who are age 18 to 59. As a \nresult, many more families will be able to access essential respite, counseling, training, support group, and other services that help them to keep their loved ones at home . \nIn addition, the legislation would greatly help the growing number of aging caregivers to help \nplan for the future of their adult children with disabilities. Over 75% of adults with lifelong \n 2 \n disabilities live at home with family caregivers and more than a quarter live with aging \ncaregivers over 60 years of age. By expanding the role of Aging and Disability Resource \nCenters (ADRCs) to begin providing future planning services, many aging caregivers will be able to achieve the peace of mind that they deserve. P lanning for the future when aging \ncaregivers can no longer provide care involves specific legal and financial considerations – \nsuch as special needs trusts, guardianship, and less restrictive protections – as well as future \nresidential and lifestyle preferences. Access to these planning services will reduce the \nlikelihood of inappropriate residential placements, loss of intended inheritance, and limited access to needed services for their adult children with disabilities. \nHelping family caregivers to continue providing long -term services and supports is a matter of \nethical and fiscal responsibility . We look forward to working with you on the reauthorization \nof the Older Americans Act that will improve services for our nation’s caregivers. \n Sincerely, \n \nAnnie Acosta \nPolicy Advocate \nThe Arc of the United States \n \n \n  \n \nMay 23, 2013 \n \n \n \nDear Chairman  Sanders:  \n The American  Geriatrics  Society (AGS) supports the Older Americans  Act Amendments  of 2013. AGS is a national \nnon‐profit organization  comprised  of over 6,000 health professionals,  including physicians,  nurses, researchers,  \nmedical educators,  pharmacists,  physician  assistants,  social workers, health care administrators,  and others who \nspecialize  in geriatrics.  We are the nation's largest multi‐disciplinary  health professional  organization  dedicated  to \nimproving  the health, independence  and quality of life of older people through initiatives  in clinical practice, \nresearch and professional  and public education.  \n \nWe very much appreciate  your efforts to move forward with reauthorization  of the Older Americans  Act (OAA) in \nthe 113th Congress.   Reauthorization  of the OAA provides an important  opportunity  to modernize  the aging \nservices network and its programs  in order to build a health professional  workforce  with the skills and training to \nmeet the health and long‐term care services and supports (LTSS) needs of older adults.  As you know, our nation \nalready faces a severe and growing shortage of healthcare  professionals  with the training and skills to meet the \nunique health care needs of older adults. \n \nWe are pleased to see provisions  in the Older Americans  Act Amendments  of 2013 to address workforce  \nshortages  and support family caregivers.   Several provisions  in your legislation  contribute  to these important  \ngoals, including requiring the Administration  on Aging to work with other federal agencies to identify and address \nworkforce  shortages  in the field of aging.  The bill also tests new innovative  models of person and family‐centered \ncare that encourage  well‐coordinated,  interdisciplinary  team care.  Additional  components  provide grants to \nstates to conduct assessments  of family or informal caregiver needs as well as the testing of models that provide \ndirect care workers with further training for new roles.  \n \nChairman  Sanders, AGS appreciates  your leadership  on this important  legislation  and looks forward to continued  \nengagement  in the OAA reauthorization  process.  Should you have any additional  questions,  please contact \nAlanna Goldstein,  Assistant Director of Public Affairs and Advocacy,  at agoldstein@americangeriatrics.org  or \n212‐308‐1414. \n \nSincerely,  \n \nCathy Alessi, MD, AGSF        Jennie Chin Hansen, RN, MS, FAAN \nPresident           Chief Executive  Officer  \n                The Honorable  Bernie Sanders, Chairman  \nSubcommittee  on Primary Health & Aging   \nCommittee  on Health, Education,  Labor & Pensions \nU.S. Senate \n332 Dirksen Building  \nWashington,  D.C.  20510 \n \n" }

Civil Action No. 3:06-CV-47\nCriminal Action No. 3:03-CR-17\nUNITED STATES OF AMERICA, (JUDGE BAILEY)\nRespondent.\nREPORT AND RECOMMENDATION \nTHAT § 2255 MOTION BE DENIED\nI. INTRODUCTION\nOn May 11, 2006, pro se petitioner filed a Motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 to Vacate, Set\nAside or Correct Sentence by a Person in Federal Custody. The Government filed its responseMay 30, 2007. \nII. FACTS\nA. Conviction and Sentence\nPetitioner was named in a twelve count superseding indictment filed on June 3, 2003 in\nthe Northern District of West Virginia. Petitioner was charged in count 1 in a conspiracy topossess with the intent to distribute more than 50 grams of cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C.§ 846; in counts 2, 5, 7, 9, and 10 with distribution of six ounces of cocaine base in violation of\n21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1); in counts 3, 4, 6, 8, and 11 with distribution of 1.85 grams of cocaine basein violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1); and in c ount 12 with aiding and abetting the distribution of\n.37 grams of crack in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2 and 21 U.S.C. § 841. 2On August 13, 2003, petitioner was convicted by a jury on all twelve counts. On\nNovember 4, 2003, petitioner was sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 275 months on counts1, 2, 5, 7, 9, and 10 and 240 months, concurrent, on counts 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, and 12.B. Appeal\nOn November 10, 2003, petitioner filed a notice of appeal. On July 6, 2004, the Fourth\nCircuit Court of Appeals affirmed petitioner’s conviction and sentence. Petitioner petitioned theUnited States Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari. The Supreme Court denied petitioner’spetition on February 22, 2005.C. Federal Habeas Corpus\nThe petitioner asserts the following grounds for relief:1. The Court did not have jurisdiction over the conspiracy alleged in Count 1\nbecause petitioner was a juvenile during a portion of the conspiracy and the Court did notcomply with the requirements of the Federal Juvenile Delinquency Act, 18 U.S.C. § 5301, forprosecuting a juvenile. \n2. The Government’s failure to submit a Bill of Particulars detailing when, where,\nand with whom the acts in Counts 2 through 7 occurred prejudiced petitioner because he wasunable to adequately prepare a defense for trial.\n3. Newly discovered evidence, namely a Bill of Sale, establishes the government’s\nwitness, David Rosario, fabricated his statem ents about having bought cocaine from petitioner\non March 28, 2002. \n4. The Government’s witnesses Joseph Lockett and Jonathan Crawford made\nstatements to the grand jury that were inconsistent with their prior statements made to 3investigators. Furthermore, there was insufficient evidence to convict petitioner of the\nsubstantive drug charges in counts 2 through 11.\nIn its response to the Petitioner’s motion, the Government asserts:1. The Court had jurisdiction over the acts alleged in Count 1 because although\npetitioner joined the conspiracy as a juvenile, he continued his involvement as an adult.\n2. Although the Government did not submit a Bill of Particulars, the superseding\nindictment, witness lists, Jencks\n and Giglio materials provided to petitioner before trial\nsufficiently apprised petitioner of the charges against him. \n3. The Bill of Sale does not establish David Rosario fabricated his testimony. \nFurthermore, petitioner failed to prove the five elements necessary for receiving a new trialbased on newly discovered evidence.\n4. Petitioner failed to prove that no reasonable jury could have convicted him of the\nsubstantive drug charges in counts 2 through 11.\nD. Recommendation\nBased upon a review of the record, the undersigned recommends that Petitioner’s § 2255\nmotion be denied and dismissed from the docket because his claims are without merit. \nIII. ANALYSIS\n“A petitioner collaterally attacking his senten ce or conviction bears the burden of proving\nhis sentence or conviction was imposed in viola tion of the Constitution or laws of the United\nStates, that the court was without jurisdiction to impose such a sentence, that the sentence\nexceeded the maximum authorized by law, or that the sentence otherwise is subject to collateral\nattack. 28 U.S.C. § 2255. A motion collatera lly attacking a petitioner’s sentence brought 4pursuant to § 2255 requires the petitioner to establish his grounds by a preponderance of the\nevidence.” Sutton v. United States of America , 2006 WL 36859, at *2 (E.D. Va. Jan. 4, 2006).\nA. Timeliness of Motion\nIn 1996, the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 [“AEDPA”] was\nenacted, establishing a one-year limitation period with in which to file any federal habeas corpus\nmotion. 28 U.S.C. §2255. The limitation period shall run from the latest of:\n1) the date on which the judgment of conviction becomes final;2) the date on which the impediment to making the motion created by governmental\naction in violation of the Constitution or laws of the United States is removed, if the movant was\nprevented from making a motion by such governmental action;\n3) the date on which the right asserted wa s initially recognized by the Supreme Court, if\nthat right has been newly recognized by the Supr eme Court and made retroactively applicable to\ncases on collateral review; or\n4) the date on which the facts supporting the claim or claims presented could have been\ndiscovered through the exercise of due diligence. 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Where a federal prisoner files a petition a writ of certiorari with the UnitedStates Supreme Court, the judgment of convic tion becomes final - thereby triggering the one-\nyear limitation - when the Supreme Court either denies certiorari or issues a decision on the\nmerits. Clay v. United States\n, 537 U.S. 522, 525 (2003). \nIn the present case, the Supreme Court denied petitioner’s writ of certiorari on February\n22, 2005. Petitioner therefore had until February 22, 2006 to file his motion under § 2255. On\nFebruary 22, 2006, petitioner requested the Court gr ant him a two month ex tension to file his\nmotion under § 2255. On March 13, 2006, the Court granted petitioner’s request and extended 5the period within which petitioner may file his motion to May 12, 2006. Petitioner filed his\nmotion on May 11, 2006. Because petitioner filed his § 2255 motion within the period of timedesignated by the Court, the Court finds petitioner’s motion was timely. B. Procedurally Defaulted Issues\nBefore evaluating the merits of Petitioner’s claims, the Court must determine which of\nPetitioner’s issues he may bring in his § 2255 motion. It is well settled non-constitutional issuesthat could have been raised on direct appeal but were not may not be rais ed in a collateral attack\nsuch as a § 2255 motion. Sunal v. Large\n, 332 U.S. 174, 178-79 (1947); Bousley v. United\nStates , 523 U.S. 614 (1998). Constitutional issues that were capable of being raised on direct\nappeal but were not may be raised in a § 2255 motion so long as the petitioner demonstrates 1)“cause” that excuses his procedural default, a nd 2) “actual prejudice” resulting from the alleged\nerrors. United States v. Maybeck\n, 23 F.3d 888, 891 (1994). Petitioner may alternatively\ndemonstrate “actual innocence,” or that it is more lik ely than not, in light of all the evidence, that\nno reasonable juror would have convicted him.” Bousley v. United States , 523 U.S. 614, 621\n(1998). Finally, issues previously rejected on direct appeal may not be raised in a collateral\nattack. Boeckenhaupt v. United States , 537 F.2d 1182 (4th Cir. 1976). \nThe Court finds petitioner is not barred from raising his first issue because challenges to\nthe jurisdiction of the Court may be raised on collateral attack. See 28 U.S.C. § 2255; see , also ,\nSunal v. Large , 332 U.S. 174, 178-179 (1947). However, pe titioner is barred from raising issues\n2 and 3 because he has failed to show “cause” a nd “prejudice” for failing to raise them on direct\nappeal. Maybeck , 23 F.3d at 891. Furthermor e, petitioner is barred from raising issue 4 because\nchallenges to the sufficiency of the evidence may not be raised on collateral attack and because 1 Petitioner raised the following four issues on direct appeal: 1) Whether the United\nStates presented sufficient evidence to support defendant’s conviction on the substantive drugdistribution charges; 2) whether the district court committed clear error in its calculation ofdefendant’s relevant conduct; 3) whether the district court plainly erred in its instructions to thejury as to the object of the conspiracy; 4) whether the district court plainly erred in itsinstructions to the jury concerning defendant’s Pinkerton\n (Pinkerton v. United States , 328 U.S.\n640 (1946)) liability regarding charged conspiracy. \n2 The “act” alleged in Count 1 is the “criminal agreement” itself, not any of the actual\ndistributions of cocaine that were the object of the criminal conspiracy. United States v.\nShambani , 513 U.S. 10, 16 (1994). As held by the Supreme Court, the government, in order to\nprove a violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846, “need not prove the commission of any overt acts infurtherance of the conspiracy. . . . [T]he criminal agreement itself is the actus reas.” Id.\n \n6petitioner’s previous challenge, made on direct appeal, to the sufficiency of the evidence as to\ncounts 2, 5, 7, 9, and 10 was rejected. Boeckenhaupt , 537 F.2d at 1182.1 \nB. Issue 1 - Whether the Court Had Jurisdiction Over Count 1\nPetitioner alleges the Court did not have jurisdiction over the conspiracy charged in\nCount 1 because petitioner was a juvenile through a period of the conspiracy and the Court failedto comply with the requirements of the Federal Juvenile Delinquency Act, 18 U.S.C. § 5031 et\nseq for prosecuting a juvenile. The Government contends the Court had jurisdiction over Count\n1 because although petitioner was a juvenile at the time he joined the conspiracy, he remained inthe conspiracy as an adult. \nThe Court finds the trial Court had jurisdiction over the acts alleged in Count 1.\n2 Count 1\nof the superseding indictment charged petitioner in a conspiracy alleged to have occurred “fromon or about January, 1999 to on or about the date of the return of the indictment,” or June 3,\n2003. Because petitioner was born on January 7, 1984, acts committed by petitioner prior toJanuary 7, 2002 were committed as a juvenile and acts committed by petitioner on or afterJanuary 7, 2002 were committed as an adult. Petitioner therefore allegedly joined the conspiracyas a juvenile. However, because the Government proved petitioner’s involvement in the 7conspiracy continued into his adulthood, the Court had jurisdiction and his conviction may be\nsustained. United States v. Spoone , 741 F.2d 680 (4th Cir. 1984) [upholding conspiracy\nconviction of adult defendant who joined conspiracy as a juvenile yet committed one overt act infurtherance of the conspiracy as an adult]. The fact the Government presented evidence of\npetitioner’s involvement as a juvenile does not disturb the Court’s finding because the Court\nfinds the jury was properly instructed they were to consider evidence of petitioner’s juvenileinvolvement merely for purposes outlined in the F.R.E. § 404(b) (such as knowledge, intent, andmotive), not as evidence of his guilt of the crime. Id.\n at 687; see F.R.E. 404(b). Finally, the\nCourt finds petitioner’s reliance on the Federal Juvenile Delinquency Act is misplaced. The Actapplies to the prosecution of a juvenile in federal court. 18 U.S.C. §§ 5031, 5032. The Act doesnot apply to the prosecution of an adult in federal court who joined a conspiracy as a juvenile. Spoone\n, 741 F.2d at 687. \nC. Issue 2 - Whether Petitioner was Prejudiced By the Government’s Failure to \nSubmit a Bill of Particulars\nPetitioner argues the Government’s failure to submit a Bill of Particulars as to Counts 2\nthrough 7 of the indictment prejudiced his ability to prepare a defense for trial. The Governmentcontends although the Government did not comply with the Court’s order to submit a Bill ofParticulars, petitioner was not prejudiced by the Government’s noncompliance becausepetitioner received the requested information in the superseding indictment, witness lists, andJencks\n and Giglio material. \nThe original indictment filed April 2, 2003 charged petitioner in Counts 2 through 7 with\ndistributing cocaine base, “in or about January, February and March of 2002,” in violation of 21 3 Docket No. 1.\n4 Docket No. 15.\n5 Docket No. 19.\n6 The superseding indictment also added four additional charges, Counts 9, 10, 11, and\n12.\n8U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).3 On April 30, 2003, petitioner moved the Court to order the Government to\nsubmit a Bill of Particulars detailing a) the identity of others involved in each count, b) thealleged circumstances of petitioner’s participation in each count, c) which acts were purportedlycommitted by petitioner while he was under eighteen, d) what acts in support of the conspiracywere purportedly committed by petitioner after he was eighteen, e) additional detail on the timeand location of the acts charged in Counts 2 through 7.\n4 On May 14, 2003, the Court granted\npetitioner’s motion, ordering the Government to submit a Bill of Particulars stating when, where,and with whom the acts in Counts 1 through 7 took place and which, if any, of the alleged actswere committed prior to petitioner’s eighteenth birthday.\n5 The Government objected to the\nOrder but the Court’s Order was affirmed.\nOn June 3, 2003, the Government filed a superseding indictment that specified in greater\ndetail the dates of the alleged acts in Counts 2 through 7.6 The new dates established the alleged\nacts were committed by petitioner after he turned eighteen. The superseding indictment did not,however, provide any detail as to where or with whom the acts in Counts 2 through 7 took place. On May 27, 2003, the Government provided petitioner with a witness list and Jencks\n and Giglio\nmaterial. The Government never submitted a Bill of Particulars. \nThe Court finds petitioner was not prejudiced by the Government’s failure to submit the\nBill of Particulars because the superseding indictment, witnesses lists, and Jencks and Giglio\nmaterials provided the information originally sought in the Bill of Particulars and sufficientlyenabled petitioner to prepare a defense, minimize surprise at trial, and avoid double jeopardy. 9United States v. Fletcher , 74 F.3d 49, 53 (4th Cir. 1996); United States v. Shembari , 484 F.2d\n931, 934-35 (4th Cir. 1973). Specifically, the date s contained in the superseding indictment\nsufficiently apprised petitioner of “when” the acts in Counts 2 through 7 occurred, that all acts inCounts 2 through 7 occurred after petitioner turned eighteen, and “where” each alleged actoccurred. Similarly, the witness lists sufficiently apprised petitioner of the individuals “withwhom” the acts in Counts 2 through 7 took place and were given to petitioner in sufficient timebefore trial. The Court finds the failure of the witness lists to specify which witness wouldtestify to which of the alleged acts is insignificant, because the government need not provide“detailed disclosure of the government’s evidence in advance of trial.” United States v.\nAutomated Medical Labs, Inc. , 770 F.2d 399, 405 (4th Cir. 1985). Petitioner was permitted to\ncontact the witnesses to determine the specifics of their testimony.D. Issue 3 - Whether the Government’s Witne ss Fabricated Evidence Before the Grand\nJury .\nPetitioner alleges newly discovered evidence establishes David Rosario, a witness for the\nGovernment, fabricated statements to Detective Snyder. The Government argues the “newlydiscovered” evidence fails to establish Mr. Rosario fabricated testimony. Additionally, theGovernment alleges even if the evidence establishes Mr. Rosario fabricated testimony, theevidence fails to establish grounds for vacating petitioner’s conviction.\nOn June 3, 2003, Detective Snyder testified before the grand jury about statements made\nto him by David Rosario. The statements, which established the basis for Count 12, concerned acontrolled buy made by an undercover agent from Mr. Rosario. Detective Snyder testified to thegrand jury Mr. Rosario told him he obtained the drugs at issue from a black male in a greenSUV. Detective Snyder also testified Mr. Rosario, after pleading guilty and getting debriefed, 10said he obtained the drugs at issue from petitioner on March 28, 2002. Petitioner concedes that\nhe owned a green color SUV but argues he did not purchase a green color SUV until April 6,2003. Petitioner has submitted a Bill of Sale as proof of his purchase and proof Mr. Rosariofabricated his statements to Detective Snyder. \nThe Court finds petitioner’s argument is without merit. First, the Bill of Sale establishes\npetitioner bought a green-color SUV on April 6, 2002, not\n April 6, 2003 as alleged by petitioner. \nSecond, the Bill of Sale does not definitively establish Mr. Rosario fabricated his testimony. The proximity in time between March 28, 2002 (the date Mr. Rosario alleged he encounteredpetitioner in the green SUV) and April 6, 2002 (the date petitioner bought his car) makes itentirely possible Mr. Rosario was merely mistaken as to the exact date of the transaction asopposed to intentionally fabricating evidence. Second, even if the Bill of Sale could beconstrued as proving Mr. Rosario fabricated his testimony, petitioner has failed to establish therequired grounds for a new trial. Pursuant to Rule 33 of the Federal Rules of CriminalProcedure, a motion for a new trial based on newly discovered evidence may be granted if thepetitioner proves all the following five factors:\n“a) the evidence must be, in fact, newly discovered, i.e., discovered since the trial; b) the facts must be alleged from which the court may infer diligence on the part of the movant;c) the evidence relied on must not be merely cumulative or impeaching; d) it must be material to the issues involved; and e) it must be such, and of such nature, that on a new trial, the newly discovered evidence would probably produce an aquittal.”\nUnited States v. Custis\n, 988 F.2d 1355, 1359 (4th Cir. 1993) (quoting United States v. Bales , 813\nF.2d 1289, 1295 (4th Cir. 1987); see , also , United States v. Singh , 54 F.3d 1182, 1190 (4th Cir.\n1995). Petitioner has failed to prove the above elements. First, petitioner has failed to prove the 7 Joseph Lockett testified he bought cocaine from petitioner in January, February, and\ninto March. \n8 William Pennington testified at the trial he was in the Eastern Regional jail with Mr.\nRosario and that Mr. Rosario told him he hated petitioner and intended to falsely testify againstpetitioner at trial.\n11Bill of Sale was discovered only since the trial nor that he exercised diligence in attempting to\nlocate the Bill of Sale. Presumably, petitioner was aware prior to the start of the August 11,\n2003 trial that he had purchased a green-color SUV on or about April 2002 and that a Bill ofSale likely existed to prove the date of his purchase. Second, petitioner has failed to show theBill of Sale would “probably produce an acquitta l.” The Bill of Sale would merely have\nimpeached Mr. Rosario’s ability to accurately recall dates rather than produce an acquittal due tothe detail of Mr. Rosario’s testimony coupled with Joseph Lockett’s testimony petitionerdistributed cocaine base in March 2002.\n7 Although William Pennington testified Mr. Rosario\nintended to falsely testify against petitioner, 8 William Pennington’s testimony was\nuncorroborated.E. Issue 4 - Whether There was Sufficient Evidence to Convict Petitioner of Counts 2 \nThrough 11 .\nPetitioner alleges witnesses Joseph Lockett’s and Jonathan Crawford’s statements to the\ngrand jury were inconsistent with their statements to investigators and that Lockett’s testimonywas “unsubstantiated and uncorroborated” such that it was “unreasonable for the jury to baseconvictions on such evidence.” Petitioner thus broadly alleges there was insufficient evidence tosupport his convictions of counts 2 through 11. The Government contends petitioner has failed\nto show the evidence was insufficient. \nGenerally, a jury’s conviction may be reversed for insufficient evidence where, “viewing\nthe evidence in the light most favourable to the government, any rational trier of fact would have 9 Lockett admitted on cross-examination he had not originally told investigators about the\nsix ounce quantities and that he had testified to the grand jury his purchases from petition beganin the Fall of 2002. \n12found the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.” United States v. Reavis\n, 48 F.3d 763,\n771 (4th Cir. 1995). Because it is the jury’s view of the sufficiency of the evidence which\ncontrols, “[t]he relevant question is not whether the appellate court is [itself] convinced beyond areasonable doubt.” Id.\n; Burks v. Unites States , 437 U.S. 1, 17 (1978). Similarly, it is the jury’s\nprovince, not the appellate court’s, to evaluate and determine a witness’ credibility. Johnson v\nUnited States , 271 F.2d 596, 597 (4th Cir. 1959) [holding, “it is the duty of the trier of fact to\nhear the evidence, to determine the credibility of the witnesses and to determine the weight to beaccorded to the testimony of each witness”]. \nThe Court finds petitioner has failed to meet his burden of showing that no rational jury\ncould have found him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of counts 2 through 11. Reavis\n, 48 F.3d\nat 771. Regarding Counts 2, 5, 7, 9, and 10, witness Lockett testified he purchased six ounces ofcocaine from petitioner on five occasions, beginning around the time of the Superbowl in 2002,two weeks following the Superbowl, near Valentine’s Day, and the first and third weeks inMarch 2002. Petitioner argues Lockett’s prior statements to the grand jury that petitioner soldhim 28 grams on each occasion, rather than six ounces, impeached his testimony and left histestimony “uncorroborated and unsubstantiated.” In viewing the evidence in the light mostfavourable to the government, the Court finds there was sufficient evidence for a jury toconvicted petitioner of counts 2, 5, 7, 9, and 10. Furthermore, the Court notes the jury was madeaware of Lockett’s inconsistent statements to the grand jury and investigators\n9 and nevertheless\ndecided to believe Lockett’s testimony, as evidenced by their conviction on counts 2, 5, 7, 9, and 1310. The Court will not disturb the jury’s assessment of a witness’ credibility. Johnson , 271\nF.2d at 597.\nSimilarly, the Court finds petitioner has failed to prove that no rational jury could find\nhim guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of counts 3, 4, 6, 8, and 11. Witness Crawford testifiedbefore the jury that he purchased “wholesale” amounts of cocaine base from petitioner five to tentimes in early 2002, in or around January, February and March. Petitioner argues Crawford’stestimony was inconsistent with statements he made to the grand jury that the purchasesoccurred in 2000 and 2001. The Court, again, finds, petitioner has failed to meet his burden ofproving his convicted rested on insufficient evid ence. In addition to there being sufficient\nevidence to support his conviction for counts 3, 4, 6, 8, and 11, including Crawford’s testimonyand other witness’ testimony establishing petitioner’s involvement in the sale of drugs on orabout January, February, and March 2002, the jury determined Crawford’s testimony wascredible. The Court will not disturb its finding. Johnson\n, 271 F.2d at 597.\nV. Recommendation\nFor the foregoing reasons, the undersigned recommends that Petitioner’s § 2255 motion\nbe denied and dismissed from the docket because petitioner’s claims are without merit. \nWithin ten (10) days after being served with a copy of this report and recommendation,\nany party may file with the Clerk of Court written objections identifying those portions of therecommendation to which objection is made and the basis for such objections. A copy of anyobjections shall also be submitted to the Honorable John P. Bailey, United States District Judge.

Reuben Elementary 2/7/07 3601015\nReport of Principal and School Improvement Council\nReuben Elementary was rich with learning and excitement in 2005-06 for teachers as\nwell as students. Teachers utilized a new initiative of the district (Early Release Days) toparticipate in team planning and data analysis. Curriculum mapping was the focus earlyin the year that helped all grade levels get a better picture of the standards covered ineach grade and how these standards build upon each other from year too year. A localcompany donated 15 refurbished laptops to the school, making it possible for theteachers to incorporate technology in their lessons and in their professional lives. Eightteachers took graduate level courses to earn advanced degrees. These endeavorscreated collaborative conversations and planning among the staff, which led to a newenergy and improved instruction in the classrooms. \nStudents were engaged in small group instruction meeting individual needs in all\nclassrooms. Grades 2-5 took Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) twice during theyear and gave teachers academic progress that guided the instruction. During the yearthe students participated in artistic fieldtrips to plays and ballets. Some classes visitedmuseums or the State House. Our fifth grade took its traditional trip to Washington, D.C.in the fall of 2005. Poet Brod Baggert left the students with a huge impression of poetryand entertained the student body by reading his poems. One fifth-grade student wasrecognized by the State for her artwork being selected for use in the 2006 Safe KidsCalendar. Eight students became certified Junior Master Gardeners. \nService projects taken on by the students included collecting peanut butter for the\nhurricane disaster victims, collecting aluminum can tabs for the Ronald McDonald House,and supporting March of Dimes, and Relay for Life. The students raised $1,578.00 forthe Cancer Society. \nMany students and parents attended the PTO Family Night and Sweetheart Dance that\nprovided family entertainment at a minimal cost. The PTO also raised about $15,000 tohelp add to the beautiful playground equipment that was purchased several years ago. \nThe school continued to be a beacon for the community by making AYP goals for the\nthird year. It was also named as a Palmetto Silver Award winner. \nEven though the school did not receive the benefits of being a Title One school for this\nyear, it was still able to provide the after-school program to parents by increasing thecharge for this service. About 45 students participated daily in this program throughoutthe school year. \nAs the spring arrived the school was informed that it would undergo massive renovations\nfor the upcoming year. Mechanical and electrical upgrades will give the school a newlook with windows replaced and new heating and air conditioning units for eachclassroom. These renovations will truly improve the appearance of the school and willmake learning more comfortable for the students. Many people will be curious to see thenew look. It will be exciting to begin the new year with a facelift to the facilities. \nSally Yoder, Chairperson, School Improvement Council\nGloria Owens, Principal\nEvaluations by Teachers, Students, and Parents\nTeachers Students* Parents*\nNumber of surveys returned 12 29 23\nPercent satisfied with learning environment 100.0% 89.7% 91.3%\nPercent satisfied with social and physical environment 100.0% 93.1% 95.7%\nPercent satisfied with school −home relations 100.0% 96.6% 87.0%\n*Only students at the highest elementary school grade level at this school and their parents were included." }

Larson (CT-01) today voted to designate the last full week of this month\nas “National Shaken Baby Syndrome Awareness Week,” as part of National Child Abuse Prevention Month. The resolution\npassed the House this afternoon. \r\nThis measure, H.Con.Res. 59, expresses the sense of Congress that National Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS)\nAwareness Week should be established to raise awareness regarding the syndrome. The resolution also urged that the\nPresident issue a proclamation urging the public to observe this week with appropriate programs and activities. \r\n“Children are completely defenseless, and are totally dependent on adults to care for them in every way, but far too often\nsomeone who is charged with their care, and their lives, hurts or kills babies by shaking them,” said Larson. “Parents and\ncaregivers must be aware that a baby’s brain is incredibly fragile, and that shaking a baby in a single moment of selfish\nfrustration could lead to their permanent injury, or death. If an awareness week saves even one life, or prevents even\none injury, then it is very much worth all of our effort.” \r\nSBS is a serious brain injury that often occurs when a frustrated caregiver “shakes” a child, usually to stop them from\ncrying. Veins, on and within the child’s brain, tear and bleed due to this shaking motion that then causes pressure on the\nbrain that leads to the destruction of brain tissue. The damaged brain then begins to swell which pushes down on the\nbrainstem that controls vital functions such as heart rate and breathing. If the swelling and pressure is not stopped, the\nchild will die. Symptoms range from mild forms of irritability, vomiting, breathing difficulties, to seizures and death. Twenty\nFive to 30 percent of SBS victims die because of their injuries, while survivors suffer from one or more impairments\nincluding permanent brain damage, deafness, and severe learning and behavioral problems. A sizeable number of\nAmericans remain unaware of SBS, which necessitates further education and discussion. \r\n\r\n###The Online Office of Congressman John B.

See Notice of Initiation of Antidumping and \nCountervailing Duty Administrative Reviews , 71 FR \n51573 (August 30, 2006). However, following the initiation, the Department has revoked this order effective May 4, 2006. See Furfuryl Alcohol from \nThailand; Final Results of the Second Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order and Revocation of the Order , 72 FR 9729 (March 5, \n2007). Therefore, the revised POR is now July 1, 2005 through May 3, 2006. Administration, International Trade \nAdministration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482 –3797. \nSUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : \nBackground \nOn July 26, 2007, the Department of \nCommerce ( ‘‘the Department ’’) \npublished a preliminary notice of intent to rescind the antidumping duty new shipper review of certain frozen warm water shrimp from the People ’s \nRepublic of China ( ‘‘PRC’’) with respect \nto Maoming Changxing Foods Co., Ltd. (‘‘Maoming Changxing ’’), covering the \nperiod February 1, 2006, through July 31, 2007. See Certain Frozen \nWarmwater Shrimp from the People ’s \nRepublic of China: Preliminary Notice of Intent to Rescind Antidumping Duty New Shipper Review , 72 FR 41058 (July \n26, 2007). \nExtension of Time Limit of Final \nResults \nThe final results for this new shipper \nreview are currently due on October 17, 2007. Consistent with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended ( ‘‘Act’’) and 19 CFR \n351.214(i)(2), the Department is extending the time limit for the completion of the final results of this new shipper review by 60 days because the case is extraordinarily complicated. This new shipper review involves complicated ownership and affiliation issues which will require the Department to consider arguments by interested parties regarding the actual owners and the source of founding capital with respect to Maoming Changxing. In addition, the Department requires additional time to consider domestic producers ’ arguments \nregarding the antidumping duty rate to apply to Maoming Changxing. \nBecause of the complexity of issues in \nthis case, and in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2), we are extending the time period for issuing the final results of the new shipper review of Maoming Changxing by 60 days. Since a 60-day extension would result in the deadline for the final results falling on December 16, 2007, which is Sunday, the new deadline for the final results will be the next business day, December 17, 2007.

The period of review is July 1, 2005, through May 3, 2006. The final results do not differ from the preliminary results of this review, in which we found that sales of the subject merchandise have not been made below normal value. \nEFFECTIVE DATE : October 12, 2007. \nFOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : \nDamian Felton or Brandon Farlander, AD/CVD Operations, Office 1, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230; telephone: (202) 482 –0133 and (202) \n482–0182, respectively. \nSUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : \nBackground \nOn July 25, 1995, the Department \npublished an antidumping duty order on furfuryl alcohol from Thailand. See \nFurfuryl Alcohol from Thailand: Notice of Amended Final Antidumping Duty Determination and Order , 60 FR 38035 \n(July 25, 1995). On August 30, 2006, the Department published a notice of initiation for this administrative review. See Notice of Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews , 71 FR 51573 (August 30, 2006). \nOn August 2, 2007, the Department published in the Federal Register its \npreliminary results of the administrative review of this order. See Furfuryl \nAlcohol from Thailand; Preliminary Results of 2005 –2006 Antidumping Duty \nAdministrative Review , 72 FR 42390 \n(August 2, 2007) ( ‘‘Preliminary \nResults ’’). In the Preliminary Results , \nthe Department invited interested parties to submit briefs and request a \nhearing. No briefs were received and the Department did not conduct a hearing because none was requested. \nScope of the Order \nThe merchandise covered by this \norder is furfuryl alcohol (C4H3OCH2OH). Furfuryl alcohol is a primary alcohol, and is colorless or pale yellow in appearance. It is used in the manufacture of resins and as a wetting agent and solvent for coating resins, nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate, and other soluble dyes. \nThe product subject to this order is \nclassifiable under subheading 2932.13.00 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheading is provided for convenience and customs purposes, our written description of the scope of this proceeding is dispositive. \nPeriod of Review \nThe period of review ( ‘‘POR’’) is July \n1, 2005, through May 3, 2006.\n1 \nFinal Results of Review \nAs noted above, the Department \nreceived no comments concerning the Preliminary Results. Consistent with the Preliminary Results, we find that a de \nminimis (i.e. , less than 0.50 percent) \ndumping margin exists for Indorama Chemicals (Thailand) Ltd. during the \nPOR. Because no party submitted comments on the Preliminary Results \nand the Department has not made any changes to the Preliminary Results , we \nhave not prepared a Decision Memorandum for these final results. For further details of our findings, see the Preliminary Results . \nExporter/manufacturer Weighted–average \nmargin percentage \nIndorama Chemicals \n(Thailand) Ltd. ........... 0.39* \n*This is a de minimis rate. \nAssessment Rates \nThe Department has determined, and \nU.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) shall assess, antidumping \nduties on all appropriate entries covered by this review.

Because the respondent did not report the entered value of its U.S. sales, pursuant to 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), we have calculated importer –specific per –unit duty \nassessment rates by aggregating the total amount of antidumping duties calculated for the examined sales and dividing this amount by the total quantity of those sales. To determine whether the duty assessment rates are de minimis , in accordance with the \nrequirement set forth in 19 CFR 351.106(c)(2), we calculated importer (or customer)-specific ad valorem ratios \nbased on the estimated entered value. Where an importer (or customer)- specific ad valorem rate is zero or de \nminimis , we will instruct CBP to \nliquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties. \nThe Department clarified its \n‘‘automatic assessment ’’ regulation on \nMay 6, 2003 (68 FR 23954). This \nclarification will apply to entries of subject merchandise during the period of review produced by reviewed companies for which these companies did not know their merchandise was destined for the United States. In such instances, we will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the all – \nothers rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction. For a full discussion of this clarification, see Antidumping and \nCountervailing Duty Proceedings: Assessment of Antidumping Duties , 68 \nFR 23954 (May 6, 2003). \nCash Deposit Rates \nOn March 5, 2007, pursuant to section \n751(d)(2) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended ( ‘‘the Act ’’), and 19 CFR \n351.222(i)(1)(ii), the Department revoked the antidumping duty order on furfuryl alcohol from Thailand ( see \nFurfuryl Alcohol from Thailand; Final Results of the Second Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty Order and Revocation of the Order , 72 FR 9729 \n(March 5, 2007)). The effective date of the revocation is May 4, 2006. As a result of this action, the Department does not intend to issue cash deposit instructions. \nNotification to Importers \nThis notice serves as a final reminder \nto importers of their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to \nliquidation of the relevant entries \nduring this review period. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in the Secretary ’s presumption that reimbursement of antidumping \nduties occurred and the subsequent assessment of doubled antidumping duties. \nNotification Regarding Administrative \nProtective Orders \nThis notice also serves as a reminder \nto parties subject to Administrative Protective Order ( ‘‘APO ’’) of their \nresponsibility concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305. Timely written notification of the return/destruction of APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO is a violation which is subject to sanctions. \nWe are issuing and publishing these \nresults and this notice in accordance with sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act. \nDated: October 14, 2007. \nDavid M.

The proposal demonstrates the \nimportance ofdelegating to the Commission with its wealth of experience in the \nsecurities markets the task of money market fund reformation. The FSOC has \nwisely accepted the wisdom of this approach. \nI have only one observation and it relates to government securities money\n \nmarket funds. This part of the proposal rests on the assumption that short-term\n \ngovernment securities will retain their value under most circumstances.\n \nHowever, changes in Federal Reserve policies have demonstrated that short-term\n \ngovernment securities may be subject to sharp changes in value. I wonder if\n \nthis possibility changes any of the Commission's views on government securities\n \nmoney market funds.\n " }

{ "pdf_file": "VKYCBKG23DZUNRHO3X6XJJ6UGS6PEAYD.pdf", "text": "CBC SPECIAL ORDER ON THE SECOND CHANCE ACT\n \nMr. SCOTT of Virginia:   Madam Speaker, I want to thank the gentleman from\nIllinois for scheduling this special order on the Second Chance Act and for his\nlong and diligent labors to move the bill forward as part of his lifetime of dedication\nto protecting and serving the public's interest. \n \n   He has been a dedicated public servant on this issue, ensuring that those who are in prison\nhave a chance to turn their lives around and become productive citizens. That is why he is the\nchief sponsor of the Second Chance Act. \n \n   Congressman Davis ' efforts not only benefit the offenders, because for everyone who comes\nout and establishes a law-abiding and productive life, one or more potential victims of crime\nnever become victims, and the taxpayers have to pay less in prison expenses because one less\nperson is not going back to prison. \n \n   This is the third Congress in a row that we have been working on this bill on a bipartisan\nbasis. I believe this year we will be successful in passing the bill. \n \n   Madam Speaker, over the last decade we have seen an unprecedented explosion in our\nprison and jail populations. Now there are more than 2.2 million people incarcerated in Federal\nand State prisons and local jails, a tenfold increase since just 1980. Moreover, the annual\nexpenses for corrections have increased from $9 billion in 1982 to more than $65 billion today.\nThe figures continue to grow. These figures do not include the cost of arrest and prosecution,\nnor do they take into account the cost to victims of crime. \n \n   As a result of this focus in incarceration, the United States leads the world in per capita\nincarceration rates. The United States locks up 726 inmates for every 100,000 in population,\naccording to 2004 data. \n \n   The international average is about 100 per 100,000. 142 in England and Wales, 117 in\nAustralia, 116 in Canada, 91 in Germany, 85 in France. So the United States average is more\nthan seven times the international average of about 100 per 100,000. The closest competitor is\n 1 / 3 CBC SPECIAL ORDER ON THE SECOND CHANCE ACT\n532 inmates per 100,000 in Russia. That is 726 in the United States, Russia, second place, 532\nper 100,000. \n \n   This year, more than 650,000 people will be released from State and Federal prisons to\ncommunities nationwide, along with more than 9 million people leaving our local jails. According\nto the Department of Justice, 67 percent of offenders leaving State and Federal prison will be\nrearrested within the next 3 years. \n \n   There is a pressing need to provide ex-offenders with education and training, drug treatment\nand medical and mental health services necessary to afford them the ability to obtain and hold\nsteady jobs. \n \n   The statistics underlying the needs of our prison population are staggering. For example, 57\npercent of Federal and 70 percent of State inmates used drugs regularly before prison, with\nsome estimates going as high as 84 percent of alcohol or drug use at the time the offense\noccurred. \n \n   Furthermore, one-third of all jail inmates will have some physical or mental disability.\nTwenty-five percent of jail inmates in fact have been treated at some time for mental or\nemotional problems. And as has been detailed by many researchers, other deficiencies include\nlimited education and few job skills or job experience. \n \n   Evidence from the Department of Justice indicates that the needs for prison population are not\nbeing met under the current system. If we allow them to return to their communities with few\neconomic opportunities where they were actually involved in crime and where their friends and\nassociates may still be involved in crime and substance abuse, if we allow them to return to\nthose communities without support, we can only expect to see the extension of the cycle of\nrecidivism. \n \n   With bipartisan support in this legislation, we are set to build a broad web of programs which\nwill help break the cycle of recidivism laying at the heart of our prison population explosion. The\nSecond Chance Act provides a host of evidence-based approaches designed to reduce the high\nrate of recidivism that we are now experiencing. \n 2 / 3 CBC SPECIAL ORDER ON THE SECOND CHANCE ACT\n \n   If we are going to continue to send more and more people to prison with longer and longer\nsentences, we should do as much as we reasonably can to assure that when they do return to\ntheir communities, they don't turn around and commit new offenses and have to go back to\nprison. \n \n   Madam Speaker, let's be clear: The primary reason for supporting the Second Chance Act is\nnot to benefit the offenders, although it does benefit the offenders. The primary reason for doing\nso is it better assures us that we and other Members of the community will not be victims of\ncrime in the future and because the taxpayer will have to pay less in services under the Second\nChance Act than we now have to pay because of the high recidivism rate and having people go\nback to prison. \n \n   So I want to thank again the gentleman from Illinois for holding this special order to bring\nattention to this important issue and the legislation that has been carefully drawn up to address\nit. I thank Mr. Davis for being the chief sponsor of the Second Chance Act. We are going to\nwork as hard as we can to make sure it passes the House and the Senate.\n 3 / 3" }

{ "pdf_file": "3HATKPN6TVEYUNQ6PK5MYH6VA6VX6ECE.pdf", "text": "846 May 7 /Administration of William J. Clinton, 1999\nBarbara Jordan's incomparable voice for jus-\ntice on common ground.\nSince I'm here today, I cannot help noting\nthat the work of Lyndon Johnson and Bar-\nbara Jordan is being carried on today here\nin Austin by the State legislators who are try-\ning to pass hate crimes legislation in the\nname of James Byrd. As you probably saw\non the tarmac, I was honored to meet with\nmembers of Mr. Byrd's family. I know that\nwhat happened to him was anathema to every\ngood citizen in Texas, as well as the United\nStates.\nAnd I ask you, as our men and women\nin uniform today struggle against the killing,\nthe rape, the looting, the uprooting of peo-\nple, based solely on their ethnic and religious\nbackground in Kosovo, as they did in Bosnia,\nas we fight to reconcile people around the\nworld, from the Middle East to Northern Ire-\nland, here in America, if we want to do good\nabroad, we have to be good at home. We\nhave to stand up for what is right.\nWe have to acknowledge that there are dif-\nferences among us that we celebrate. There\nare differences among us that are real dif-\nferences, and we are compelled to disagree.\nBut underneath it all, as the Founders of our\nRepublic recognized, there is our common\nhumanity and our equal dignity. And we\nmust always stand for it. If we want to be\na force against ethnic cleansing and genocide\naround the world, we have to be a force for\nharmony and community, here at home in\nevery place in the United States.\nAnd so I close with the point I tried to\nmake at the beginning. I want you to think\nabout what this represents and how you did\nit. What it represents is a commitment to a\ncommon future, where no one is left behind\nand everybody has a chance. How you did\nit is by working together, across all the ele-\nments of this richly textured community. If\nyou think about it, we could solve all of our\nproblems that way. Thanks for the model.\nGood luck, and God bless you.\nWait a minute. I want to do one other\nthing. I want to thank the Barbara Jordan\nElementary Choir and the Pflugerville High\nSchool Band. Thank you very much. How\nabout a little more music? Let's go.NOTE: The President spoke at 5:38 p.m. In his\nremarks, he referred to Mayor Kirk Watson of\nAustin, TX; and former Representative J.J. Pickle.\nThis item was not received in time for publication\nin the appropriate issue.\nRemarks at a Democratic National\nCommittee Dinner in Austin\nMay 7, 1999\nThank you very much. You know, when\nRoy was doing that riff, you know, ``Before\nhe came, I didn't know I needed new fur-\nniture; I didn't know I needed new art work;\nI didn't know I needed''ÐMary kept getting\nredder and redder, and finally she says, ``He\nmay not know he needs another place to\nspend the night tonight.'' [ Laughter ] I must\nsay this is a lot better than the last hovel\nwe spent the night in. [ Laughter ]\nLet me say to all of you, I've had a wonder-\nful time here tonight, seeing so many of my\nold friends. There are a lot of people hereÐ\nthe ones Roy mentioned and also Carlos\nTruan, Gonzalo BarrientosÐa lot of other\npeople who were with Roy and Gary and\nJudy and Nancy and Tom, all the rest of us,\nway back in 1972. And we have remained\nfriends for a long time. And during most of\nthat time, with the odd interruption, some-\ntimes the odd, wonderful interruption like\nthe reign of Governor Richards, the election\nof Lloyd Doggett, we've been in the minor-\nity.\nAnd I want to talk tonight a little bit\naboutÐI want to have kind of a serious con-\nversation tonight about why I really came\nhere, because what Joe said is right. I'm not\nrunning for anything. And I would seize any\nexcuse to come here to Austin, because I had\nsome of the happiest days of my life here,\nand I have a very jealous wife who wishes\nshe were here today.\nBut for the next 2 years, I'm helping the\nDemocratic Party because I believe it's the\nright thing to do for America. I hear a lot\nof folks on the other side kind of licking their\nlips and saying, ``Well, wait until the next\nelection, and we'll have Clinton out of the\nway. Maybe it will be better.''\nWhat I want to say to you is that I am\nvery grateful that I've had the chance to serve\nyou. And I am profoundly grateful that we 847 Administration of William J. Clinton, 1999 /May 7\nhave the lowest unemployment in 30 years\nand the lowest welfare rolls in forever and\na dayÐthey're half the size they were be-\nforeÐand the lowest crime rate in 25 years.\nRoy was saying that we've got 90 percent of\nour children immunized against serious dis-\neases for the first time in history. The doors\nof college are virtually open to every Amer-\nican now because of our HOPE tax credit\nand the student loan changes we've made.\nWe've set aside more land in perpetuity than\nany administration, except for the two Roo-\nsevelts, in American history. I'm grateful for\nall that.\nBut what I want you to understand is that\nI'm grateful because I got a chance to imple-\nment a set of ideas that now represent the\ngoverning philosophy of the Democratic\nParty. And it is very different from the driv-\ning philosophy of the other party. And if the\nAmerican people like the results that have\nbeen achieved, then we need to support\nthose people running for the Congress and\nthe White House who believe in these ideas.\nIn 1991, when the incumbent President\nwas at 75 percent approval and I decided to\nmake this race when nobody but my mother\nand my wife thought I could win, I did it\nbecause I was worried about my country and\nmy Capital. Because it seemed to me that\nthere was nothing particularly wrong with\nAmerica that couldn't be fixed if we would\njust open our eyes and go to work. The un-\nemployment rate was high, inequality was in-\ncreasing, the social problems were worsen-\ning, and we had a lot of problems around\nthe world that we didn't seem to have any\ngoverning idea of dealing with. But I felt\ngreat about America. I just thought we had\nto change the way Washington worked.\nJust go back in your mind to that period\nand that long period where the other party\nspent 12 years telling us how terrible the\nGovernment was, and a lot of our guys were\nsort of fighting a rearguard action defending\nit. But most of the ideological battles which\ntook place in Washington were about yester-\nday instead of about tomorrow. And so I set\noff on this crazy journey with a lot of you,\nbased on a few simple ideas.\nFirst of all, I asked myself, what is the\nproblem? The problem is that we have not\nthought about how to take full advantage ofthis explosion in technology and the\nglobalization of the economy in society and\nat the same time figure out how not to leave\nanybody behind and make our families and\nour communities stronger and maintain our\npush for peace and prosperity around the\nworld. We haven't thought about how to\nmake the transition in a way that not only\nprovides vast opportunities for people like\nthose of us in this beautiful setting tonight,\nbut makes America as a nation stronger.\nAnd it seemed to me that what we had\nto do is to go back to some very basic things:\nthat we had an obligation to try to have op-\nportunity for every person who was respon-\nsible enough to deserve it; that we had to\ntry to build a community made up of every\nlaw-abiding citizen without regard to what\nother differences they had; that we had to\ncommit ourselves to be more involved in the\nrest of the world, not less involved, because\nthe world is growing smaller and smaller; and\nthat we needed a different sort of Govern-\nment that could be much smallerÐand it is\ntoday, by the way. It's the same size it was\nin 1962Ðthat's the size of your Federal Gov-\nernment today. And I'm proud of that.\nBut what you need to know, we made it\nsmaller but more active, focused not so much\non telling people what to do or maintaining\nold bureaucracies but giving people the tools\nthey need to make the most of their own\nlives. Those were my ideas: opportunity, re-\nsponsibility, community, a Government that\ngives people the tools to make the most of\ntheir own lives.\nAnd I thought to myself, there are a whole\nlot of things people believe that I don't think\nare true. I believed if we work at it, we could\nreduce the deficit and still increase our\nspending in education and health care if we\ndid it right. Well, 6 years later, we've got a\nhuge surplus, and we've nearly doubled\nspending in education and health care.\nI believed we could improve the economy\nand improve the environment. The air is\ncleaner and the water is cleaner than it was\n6 years ago. We've reduced chemicals in the\natmosphere from chemical plant emissions\nby 90 percent in the last 6 years.\nI believed that we could help people suc-\nceed at work and at home. And I still think\nthat's one of the biggest problems we've got 848 May 7 /Administration of William J. Clinton, 1999\nin this country, people trying to be good par-\nents and trying to meet their obligations at\nwork at the same time.\nI believed that we could promote\nentrepreneurialism and trade around the\nworld and still help people who, because of\ntheir education or where they live, are at risk\nof being left behind. Those are the things\nthat I believed.\nI believed that we can be a force for peace\nand recognize that there are some times\nwhen we have to use our overwhelming mili-\ntary force.\nI believed that in welfare we could reduce\nthe welfare rolls, get more people to work,\nand at the same time help people who were\non welfare to do a better job of raising their\nchildren. That we didn't have to hurt people\nin their responsibilities as parents, to say if\nyou're able-bodied you ought to work if you\ncan.\nI didn't believe thatÐall those choices and\nall those debates that I kept hearing in Wash-\nington. And so we set out to do it, and the\npublic responded, and the people gave me\na chance to serve. And then in '96, another\nchance. And then in '96 and '98 kept return-\ning more of our people to the Congress so\nthat we're at the point where we can almost\nreverse the election of '94. I think the elec-\ntion in '94 happened, by the way, because\nwe made the tough decisions as a party, all\nalone, to reduce the deficit, without a single\nvote from the other party, and increase our\ninvestment in education. We made the tough\ndecision almost all alone to pass a crime bill\nthat put 100,000 police on the street, banned\nassault weapons, and required the Brady\nbill's waiting period. And by the election in\n'94Ðand we tried to provide more health in-\nsurance, all alone, and didn't have enough\nvotes to do it. And by '94 what happened\nwas people knew what we'd done on the eco-\nnomic plan, but they didn't feel the economy\nwas getting better; they knew what we'd done\non the crime bill, but the NRA convinced\na bunch of hunters we were going to take\ntheir rifles. By '96 everybody still had their\nrifles and the crime rate had gone down, the\neconomy had gone up, and we got reelected.\nAnd the Congress is doing better ever since\nour elections.So now we're poised for this election in\n2000. And what I want to say to you is, I\nappreciate what Roy said about me, and it's\nnice to be introduced by your old friends.\nThey'll lie about you a little now and then.\nBut the truth is, you must believe this, this\nadministration has succeeded because we\nhad the right ideas and the right approach\nand we're grounded in the right values, and\nit's what represents the heart and soul of the\nDemocratic Party today. And that's why I'm\nhere.\nWe've got a lot of big decisions to make.\nAnd you have to decide who is going to make\nthem. We have to deal with the aging crisisÐ\ntwice as many people over 65 by 2030. I hope\nto live to be one of them. [ Laughter ] I've\ngiven the Congress a plan that will save Social\nSecurity, save Medicare, provide help for\npeople taking care of their parents and long-\nterm care, allow middle income people and\nlower income people to save for their own\nretirement for the first time and do it in a\nway that pays down the national debt by 2015\nto the lowest point it has been since before\nWorld War I. And that's really important to\nkeep the economy going, because we'll be\nless dependent on the vagaries of the global\nfinancial system.\nI've given the Congress a plan that will\nimprove the quality of education by ending\nsocial promotion, by providing after-school\nand summer school programs for our kids,\nby finishing the work of hooking all our class-\nrooms up to the Internet, by modernizing a\nlot of these old school buildings and helping\nthe school districts that are having kids in\nhouse trailers, by supporting better teaching,\nand by having national academic standards,\nwhich I hope our whole party will embrace\nand help us in this great battle we're in, be-\ncause I think you should have local control\nof the school about how to implement na-\ntional academic standards.\nThere's an international standard that all\nof our children need to meet if we want them\nto make a good living. And we're about the\nonly advanced country in the world that\ndoesn't have that. As a result, we've got the\nfinest system of higher education in the\nworld; no one believes that our system of ele-\nmentary and secondary education is uni-\nformly the finest in the world. And yet, it 849 Administration of William J. Clinton, 1999 /May 7\ncan be. And all the diversity we have in our\nschools is a great asset in a global society,\nbut every one of those kids deserves a chance\nat the brass ring.\nI was in the Alexandria school system the\nother day, across the river from the Capitol\nand the White House. There are kids from\na hundred different racial and ethnic groups\nthere, nearly a hundred different native lan-\nguages. Every one of them can make a con-\ntribution to America if he or she gets a world-\nclass education. And to pretend that it ought\nto be a local option whether they get it is,\nI think, obscuring what is plainly real here.\nSo we Democrats stand for more flexibility\nabout how to do things, but for national\nstandards of excellence based on inter-\nnational standards of what our children need\nto know. And I think the American people\nare with us on that.\nI could talk about a lot of other issues.\nI'd just like to mention one or two more.\nThe Vice President is coming down here to\nsouth Texas in a couple of weeks to our an-\nnual empowerment zone conference. Since\n1993, we've been trying to figure out ways\nto get more investment into poor urban\nneighborhoods and poor rural areas and poor\nNative American reservations, because there\nare still a lot of people that haven't partici-\npated in this economic recovery.\nAnd I worry a lot about how we're going\nto keep America's growth going and our un-\nemployment low without any inflation, espe-\ncially if we have trouble overseas. One way\nis to make more markets here at home. And\nthere are lots of places right here in Texas\nwhere unemployment is still too high, too\nmany hardworking people still don't have the\nskills they need, and where if we could attract\nthe right investment in the right way we\ncould have dramatic growth. So this is going\nto be a big challenge. If we can't get around\nnow to giving poor rural areas and urban\nareas that have been left behind the chances\nthey need, we'll never get around to it.\nLet me just mention one or two other\nthings. I am very interested in this whole\nissue of balancing work and family. And I\nthink there's some things we ought to do.\nI think we ought to raise the minimum wage\nagain. I think we ought to strengthen the\nfamily and medical leave law. I think weought to pass the Patients' Bill of Rights. I\nthink we ought to pass our child care plan\nto help lower income people with their child\ncare costs. We have to realize that most par-\nents have to work and every parent ought\nto have the option to do it, but no parent\nshould have to sacrifice the most important\njob any woman or man has, which is to raise\nstrong, good kids. There are a lot of things\nout there we have to do. We've got a big\njob to do in the world. You can see it today\nwith some of the problems we have.\nNow, I'd like to close by just asking you\nto think about three things and giving you\nexamples of what my philosophy is, that I\nthink is our party's philosophy. These are the\nbest of times for Americans, but we're all\npretty sobered up right now because of three\nevents of the recent days: One, are the ter-\nrible tornadoes in Oklahoma and Kansas and,\nto a lesser extent but still sad, in Texas and\nTennessee; two, is the heartbreaking incident\nin Littleton, Colorado; and third, is the con-\ntinuing conflict in Kosovo. Now, let me tell\nyou what they mean to me.\nFirst, the tornadoes mean that none of us\nshould get too big for our britches. We're\nnot in control. We have to maintain a certain\nhumility when thinking about all the prob-\nlems of the world. But as our hearts go out\nto those peopleÐI'm going up to Oklahoma\nCity tomorrow to tour the damage and talk\nabout what we can do to help them put their\nlives back togetherÐI'm thinking about what\nwe can do to try to prepare better for the\nnext one. I'm thinking about what we can\ndo if we know we're going to grow and ex-\npand in areas that have been tornado alleys,\nwhat we ought to do to build houses that\nwill do a better job of withstanding them or\nhave quicker escapes to places that will be\nsafer. In other words, I think what we always\nshould be thinking about is: How can we\nmake it better? How can we deal with what\nis going to come?\nIn the case of Littleton, on Monday, Hil-\nlary and I and Al and Tipper Gore are going\nto sponsor a big meeting at the White House\nwith people from the entertainment and\nInternet communities, people from the gun\nmanufacturers, people from the religious\ncommunities, people who work in schools on\nproblems of violence, students, a lot of other 850 May 7 /Administration of William J. Clinton, 1999\nsegments of our society, coming together to\ntalk about how we can start a national cam-\npaign to reduce the likelihood of violence\nagainst our children.\nNow, I think it is important that you know\nhow I look at this. I think the world's worst\nthing we can do is to use this awful heart-\nbreak to get into a fingerpointing session. Be-\ncause the truth is that not a single soul here\nknows exactly what triggered those kids. And\nwe all know that in any given time there will\nbe people who are more vulnerable than oth-\ners to whatever influences to which they're\nexposed to. But I do think we would all\nadmit, if we sort of take our defenses down,\nthat the society in which our children grow\nup today, number one, throws things at them\nfaster; number two, gives them even more\nopportunities to be isolated from their par-\nents and from their peers; number three, ex-\nposes them at an earlier age and in greater\nvolume and intensity to more violence and\nthe coarsening of human relationships; and\nnumber four, it's way too easy for them get\nthings like Tech-9 assault pistols. And I think\nwe can all sort of admit that.\nAnd what I'm trying to do is to figure out\nwhat we should all do here to launch a genu-\nine grassroots national campaign where I try\nto pass the laws I should pass; the gun manu-\nfacturers come forward and do what they\nought to do to try to protect our kids; the\nentertainment community makes a contribu-\ntion; the Internet community makes a con-\ntributionÐthey've worked hard, by the way,\nwith the Vice President to try to give parents\nmore screening technologiesÐand the reli-\ngious community comes forward; the mental\nhealth community comes forward; the\nschools provide more adequate counseling\nservices and peer mediation for the kids, and\nwhat some of our schools are doing now, pro-\nviding a hotline so kids who know what's\ngoing on in the school can call and tell some-\nbody without being subject to abuse.\nThere are lots of things to be done here.\nBut there's also something to be said here\nfor recognizing the incredible pressures that\nparents and children are under because life\nis so fast and so crowded. And it is easy for\nall of us, if we're not careful, to wind up being\nstrangers in our own homes. And our chil-\ndren need to understand also that no matterhow solid and rooted they are, childhood is\na fragile and difficult time. Every school will\nalways have its cliques. Every school will al-\nways have its groups. But we've got to teach\nour kids that they can enjoy being in their\ncrowd without looking down on the others;\nbecause people who are constantly subject\nto ridicule and abuse are going to have their\nlives twisted or distorted in some ways, unless\nthey are really superhuman.\nSo I'm looking forward to this. And all the\ncynics who say it can't be done, I would re-\nmind you that teen pregnancy is now down\n5 years in a row because of a national grass-\nroots movement, not because of any law we\npassed in Washington. Drunk driving is down\nbecause of Mothers and Students Against\nDrunk Driving. We now have 10,000 compa-\nnies that have voluntarily joined an alliance\nthat we organized a couple years ago to hire\npeople from welfare to work, and they've\nhired over 400,000 people without a single\nlaw being passed. We can do this. And I be-\nlieve we can do it, but only if our political,\npublic life brings us together and not drives\nus apart.\nAnd the last thing I'd like to say is about\nKosovo. I know this is a difficult issue. I saw\nthe people with their signs on the way in,\nsaying we ought to end the fighting. Nobody\nwants to do it more than me. I think those\nof you who've known me for 30 years know\nthat the most difficult thing that I ever have\nto do is use a superior position to put pres-\nsure on somebody else, particularly if it in-\nvolves the use of violence. I'm not that sort\nof person.\nBut let me tell you, since the end of com-\nmunism, we have seen the inevitable rise of\nnational aspirations and ethnic aspirations,\nespecially in Central and Eastern Europe. In\none place only, the former Yugoslavia, we\nhave seen that turned into a credo that says\nit is all right to burn the homes, destroy the\nrecords, destroy the churchesÐthe mosques,\nin this caseÐand the museums, and the li-\nbraries, and the very lives of families; it's all\nright to rape the daughters; it's all right to\nshoot the sons; it's all right to do this.\nAnd for 3 years, we worked, through the\nUnited Nations and negotiations and every-\nthing else, to end the war in Bosnia. And\nfinally, we ended the war in Bosnia when 851 Administration of William J. Clinton, 1999 /May 8\nNATO bombed and when the opposition\nforces started winning some battles on the\nground. And we've been able to maintain a\npeace there.\nPeople don't have to like each other. Peo-\nple may have legitimate grievances. But eth-\nnic cleansing and killing people wholesale be-\ncause of their race or religion is wrong. And\nthe United States is in a position to stand\nagainst it, and we ought to.\nI know there are a lot of people who dis-\nagree with me. They say, ``Well, we don't\nhave any vital national interest.'' I would\nargue to you that we do. It's not only a moral,\nhumanitarian issue. We'll be better off if our\nbest allies in the world, in Europe, live in\na continent that is whole and democratic and\nat peace and free of this sort of thing.\nFirst of all, they won't be wasting their\nmoney tearing each other up. Secondly,\nthey'll be better trading partners. Thirdly,\nthey'll be better partners in helping us solve\nproblems in other parts of the world. And\nif we can put an end to ethnic cleansing in\nEurope, then we can put an end to it in Afri-\nca, and we can put an end to it wherever\nelse it rears its ugly head.\nIf we can't solve this problem, it's very dif-\nficult to understand how our children are\ngoing to live in peace in a world where every\nradical terrorist group can get on the Internet\nand figure out how to build a bomb or get\nweapons or do anything else they want to\ndo. We have got, at least, to tell people that\nin the world of the 21st century, it is not\nokay to kill people just because they're of\na different race or ethnicity or religion.\nThat's why I must say, I want to applaud\nthe Senators who are here, who are trying\nto pass that hate crimes act in the legislature,\nin honor of James Byrd. I think it's very im-\nportant. It makes a statement.\nThis is the last thing I'll say about this.\nI've already talked longer than I meant to,\nbut if you don't remember anything else I\nsay, remember this: It is one thing to say that\nwe all ought to get along together and quite\nanother to do what is necessary for us to do\nso in decency and honor.\nThe differences among us are a part of\nwhat makes life more interesting and makes\nthis country so successful, as long as they are\ncontained. When the differences among us\nare used, as they are in Kosovo today, as theywere in Bosnia before, as an instrument of\nhuman destruction, they can quickly make\nlife unbearable.\nNow, we can't force anybody to like any-\nbody else. Maybe not everybody in this place\ntonight likes everybody else. But we live ac-\ncording to certain rules, and we do it not\nonly because it is morally right but because\nwe do better when other people do well.\nWhen we do the right thing or, as Hillary\nsays, when we act like we're in a village, we\nall are better off.\nSo I ask you to think about this. The\nDemocratic Party has stood for community\nand for opportunity and for citizen respon-\nsibility. We have refused to accept all these\nphony choices we were presented with, be-\ntween economic growth and the environ-\nment, between accountability and help in\neducation, and all the other things. These\nideas have led America to a better place.\nThat's why I'm here. I'm glad I was Presi-\ndent. I hope I was the instrument of a lot\nof the good things that have happened in this\ncountry. But the most important thing is that\nwe continue in this direction, that we stay\non this course, that we embrace these ideas.\nAnd that is why it is important to support\nthis party.\nI'm very grateful to you. Thank you, and\nGod bless you.\nNOTE: The President spoke at 8:38 p.m. at a pri-\nvate residence.

{ "pdf_file": "HGB546MCYLA3JJLIKLP5WGEFY6DUY5ML.pdf", "text": "Constituent Service Success Stories\nMy office is here to help you with issues and problems you may be having with an agency of the\nfederal government, such as obtaining benefits and services from the Department of Veterans\nAffairs, Social Security Administration, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as well as\nassistance with military service records and medals, and passport issues.  I invite you to read\nthe following examples of how I’ve been able to help constituents and if you are in need of\nassistance, please visit my Help with a Federal Agency page to contact me directly.\n Melissa McIlrath, Stockton\n \nMs. McIlrath contacted my office in June 2008 because she had yet to receive benefits from the\nSocial Security Administration seven months after they determined she was eligible.  My staff\nimmediately contacted the local Social Security office and explained Ms. McIlrath’s situation.\n \nUpon making an initial inquiry, my office was able to determine that Ms. McIlrath’s benefit\npayment had been issued twice to an incorrect address.  As it turned out, she was eligible to\nreceive benefits in excess of $45,000.  A swift correction to the problem was made and Ms.\nMcIlrath received the back payments.\n Paula Anderson, Brentwood\n \nMrs. Anderson first contacted my office in June 2008 regarding Social Security disability\nbenefits. The Social Security Administration had ruled the previous April that Mrs. Anderson\nwas entitled to benefits, but to date she had not received any.\n \nAfter waiting more than 60 days for her settlement payment, Mrs. Anderson and her family were\nencountering financial straits and were close to losing their home.\n \nMy staff called the local Social Security Administration office and Mrs. Anderson’s payment was\nexpedited. Soon thereafter, she received a $40,000 lump sum payment.\n \nMrs. Anderson was thankful to receive the funds and said, \"We really appreciated it and the\nCongressman totally jumping on it as we almost lost our home.\"\n Frank Alvarez, Tracy\n 1 / 6 Constituent Service Success Stories\n \nMr. Alvarez is a Vietnam veteran who was awarded a non-service connected pension by the VA\nin 2004. The VA determined that he was permanently and totally disabled and unable to obtain\ngainful employment.\n \nHe is also the father of two young boys, one biological and one adopted. He took them both in\nwhen their mother passed away in August 2005.  Due to their mother’s death, each of the boys\nreceives a small monthly survivor benefit from the Social Security Administration. The VA\nconsidered the children’s survivor benefits as part of Mr. Alvarez’s income and thus determined\nthat his monthly income of just under $17,000 exceeded the VA limit for pension eligibility –\neven though the limit was exceeded by just $490.\n \nMr. Alvarez contacted my office in January 2008 after the VA made this determination and\ninformed him of the need to repay what the VA considered an overage.\n \nMy staff helped Mr. Alvarez submit his request for a waiver of overpayment to the VA Pension\nCenter. After evaluating the case and the circumstances, the VA granted Mr. Alvarez’s waiver\nrequest.  However, due to a bureaucratic snafu the VA continued to collect money from Mr.\nAlvarez.\n \nMy staff then contacted the Pension Center to get a formal letter issued to the VA Debt\nManagement Center, so that Mr. Alvarez’s records would reflect that the overpayment was\nwaived.  The Debt Management Center updated their records and Mr. Alvarez will now receive\nhis pension in the full amount as well as a refund of the money that was previously deducted.\n Gary Fulkerson, Acampo\n \nMr. Fulkerson contacted my office in April 2008 after his wife received a letter from the VA\nstating that he was deceased and she would need to repay $5,520 in veterans benefits.\n \nMy staff immediately contacted the VA and was informed that the VA’s records indicated that\nMr. Fulkerson had passed away in February of 2008. Fortunately, my staff was able to provide\nthe VA with a copy of Mr. Fulkerson’s signed privacy release form, indicating that in fact Mr.\nFulkerson is alive and well and entitled to continue receiving VA benefits.\n 2 / 6 Constituent Service Success Stories\n \nMr. Fulkerson’s benefits were reinstated and the VA will now require a certified death certificate\nfrom Mr. Fulkerson’s family before terminating his benefits.\n Antoinette Muti, Pleasanton\n \nMrs. Muti is the surviving spouse of Mr. Michael Muti, a Merchant Marine who served during\nWorld War II. In February 2007, after Mr. Muti passed away, Mrs. Muti applied for a VA pension\nas the surviving spouse of a veteran. She had already spent the previous four months waiting\nfor the Coast Guard to provide her with documentation verifying her husband’s service, which\nshe needed in order to submit her claim to the VA.\n \nShe reached out to my office in October 2007 after having received letter after letter from the\nVA apologizing for the delay in processing her claim. My staff contacted the VA Pension Center\nand requested the expedited processing of Ms. Muti’s claim. The VA approved Ms. Muti’s claim\nfor spousal pension for ongoing monthly benefits as well as a retroactive payment.\n \nI’m grateful for the opportunity to help Mrs. Muti and pleased that she will now receive monthly\npayments and a retroactive payment to account for the time she waited for the claim to be\nprocessed.\n Dennis Wilson, Acampo\n \nMr. Wilson arrived at my office in July of 2007 after driving from his home in Acampo all the way\nto the Pleasanton. In December 2006, he was denied a claim for social security benefits despite\nboth having suffered a stroke which impairs his vision and facing vascular dementia which\nprevents him from working.\n \nMy office was able to expedite a hearing date for Mr. Wilson, which was held in January.  In\nMarch, Mr. Wilson still hadn’t heard anything and contacted the office again, asking for\nassistance with securing a decision as soon as possible. He was concerned about being able to\nmake his April mortgage payment.\n \nMy office contacted the Social Security Administration for a status check and we were told that\nMr. Wilson was determined to be disabled after his hearing in January. He was also determined\n 3 / 6 Constituent Service Success Stories\nto be eligible for retroactive payments due to the date of his disability.\n \nMr. Wilson received a lump sum payment in and is now receiving regular benefits on a monthly\nbasis. He was very thankful for the help and I’m honored that we were able to assist him.\n Michael Carney, Stockton\n \nMr. Carney, a Vietnam veteran, originally contacted my office in September 2007 to request\nassistance with an appeal he had filed in response to the VA’s denial of his Post Traumatic\nStress Disorder claim. He was initially granted a 30 percent disability rating for PTSD, but\nbelieved that it should have been more.\n \nMr. Carney is a former employee of San Joaquin County. He was granted a medical retirement\nas a result of his disabilities. According to Mr. Carney, the Social Security Administration also\nrecognizes him as permanently disabled.\n \nAfter reviewing the case, I worked with my staff to write a letter on Mr. Carney’s behalf to the VA\nBoard of Veterans Appeals, requesting a review of his situation.\n \nI was lucky enough to meet Mr. Carney at a Congress at Your Corner event I held in Manteca.\nWhen we talked at the time, I told him that I was proud to be able to advocate on his behalf and\nin return, he told me, \"Without your assistance, I'd still be where I was eight years ago: nowhere\n.\"\n Evelyn Jansen, Discovery Bay\n \nMrs. Jansen of Discovery Bay contacted my office to seek assistance in dealing with the Social\nSecurity Administration.  Her husband was receiving Social Security disability benefits until he\npassed away on July 21, 2007.  With the passing of her husband, Mrs. Jansen was without any\nsource of income and her monthly bills were becoming more than she could handle.\n \nMrs. Jansen thought she would continue to receive her husband’s benefits but the local Social\nSecurity office informed her that she was ineligible because of her age.  She was 57 at the\ntime.  This news couldn’t have come at a worse time given that she was facing unpaid medical\n 4 / 6 Constituent Service Success Stories\nbills and mounting financial hardship.\n \nI worked with my staff to make an inquiry on Mrs. Jansen’s behalf. We were told that, in fact,\nMrs. Jansen is not entitled to Social Security disability because of her age.  However, due to the\ninquiry, the Social Security Administration determined that she was entitled to nearly $13,000 in\nunpaid disability benefits for her late husband.\n \nMrs. Jansen was overwhelmed upon hearing the news and I’m proud that we were able to\nassist her.\n Robert Vannatter, Pleasanton\n \nI originally met Mr. Vannatter when I went to the Pleasanton Gardens Senior Center.  He asked\nme for help in verifying the medals he earned during his service with the U.S. Army during\nWorld War II. \n As a member of the 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment, Mr. Vannatter participated in the Allied\noperations at Normandy. He said that during the battle he lost a pair of pants.  I didn’t ask him\nwhether they were the ones he was wearing at the time.\n \nUnbeknownst to him, the pants were recovered, and, years later, were placed on display at a\nmuseum in France as part of a World War II exhibit. \n Recently, a visiting scholar from New York was at the French museum and examined the\npants for identifying characteristics.  He found Mr. Vannatter’s Army Identification number on\nthe underside of the belt buckle.  The scholar was able to track down Mr. Vannatter’s name and\ncontact information through the U.S. Army and National Personnel Records Center (NPRC). \n Mr. Vannatter was then asked to provide a memory of his experience in World War II to\nsupplement the museum exhibit in France.  He recalled having earned a Bronze Star but was\nnot certain.  In the interest of making his memoirs as accurate as possible, he asked me for help\nin seeking verification of his military awards.\n I worked with my staff to submit a request to the NPRC to review Mr. Vannatter’s eligibility for\nvarious medals and marks of distinction.  The NPRC was able to verify that Mr. Vannatter did in\nfact earn a Bronze Star for his service at Normandy.  They mailed the medal to my district office\nin Pleasanton, along with the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal.\n \n 5 / 6 Constituent Service Success Stories\nI was lucky enough to then be able to present Mr. Vannatter with the Bronze Star, the Armed\nForces’ fourth highest combat award, earned for his service during World War II.\n \n \n \n 6 / 6" }

Box 83720\nBoise ID 83720.....' \nC:.\nc'-, -,. -,. .,---., ' ,\nRE: Case No. UWI- 07-02 ~j)\nApplication and Request to Serve Lanewood Estates \nby United Water Idaho Inc.(, ,\nDear Commissioners:\nThe following constitutes the comments of the City of Eagle in response to the application by\nUnited Water Idaho , Inc. for amendment to its Certificate of Convenience and Necessity No. 143\nto allow extension of service to a development in Ada County known as Lanewood Estates. The\nCity of Eagle objects to the amendment of the Certificate and does not believe that use of the\nModified Procedure requested by United Water is appropriate for this particular proceeding.\nThe Commission should be aware that the City of Eagle and United Water have held meetings to\ndiscuss the particular development which United Water now seeks to serve. These meetings\nincluded discussions of the City of Eagle s municipal water system , its development , and Eagle\nintent to serve Lanewood Estates along with other developments in the City' s expansion area\nwest of Linder Road. The City of Eagle advised United Water that it intended to serve this\ndevelopment for numerous reasons. Notwithstanding Eagle s effort to inform United Water of\nthe City of Eagle s plans, United Water has now applied to the Commission for amendment of its\nCertificate without noting or informing the Commission of these discussions. Further , United\nWaters cursory filing fails to mention these discussions and contains so little information that it\ndoes not inform the Commission or the public of the circumstances and issues involved.\nLanewood Estates , consisting of approximately 190 acres , is located immediately west of Linder\nRoad in Ada County. It is immediately south of , and contiguous to , other developments which\nare in the process of obtaining service by the City of Eagle. February 23, 2007\nPage 2 of 2\nThe development is in the City of Eagle s Area of Impact , as approved by Ada County. It is\nwithin the area covered by the City' s Comprehensive Plan. It is also within the City of Eagle\nservice area as approved by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality.\nAlthough United Water states in its Application that there are no other water providers with\nexisting facilities in the vicinity of Lanewood Estates capable of providing service according to\nthe time table requested by the developer , United Water omits any mention of what that time\ntable is. In fact , the City of Eagle s municipal system will have a main line immediately adjacent\nto the development. Further the main line will be ready for use by Lanewood Estates by the time\nit completes the local government approval process regardless of whether the development of\nLanewood is pursuant to either County or the City of Eagle procedures.\nWhile United Water asserts that it is capable of extending service to the development by\nextension of main lines located within its current service area , United Water fails to identify\nwhich water rights United Water owns that will be used to serve the development or which wells\nwill deliver the water. Simply extending a pipeline does not adequately explain how United\nWater intends to serve , or whether it is capable of serving, the development. The City of Eagle\nsubmits that it is reasonable to have United Water disclose and appropriate for the Commission\nto examine the water resources to be utilized by United Water and determine whether United\nWater can serve this development and other developments without jeopardizing service to its\ncurrent system and customers. Until such a review is undertaken , United Water s allegation that\nan extension of service into this area is consistent with public convenience and necessity is\nunsupportable. The Application is inconsistent with the City' s Comprehensive Plan , the\nestablishment of the City' s Area of Impact , and the service area approved by the Idaho\nDepartment of Environmental Quality. The City would submit that allowing United Water\nrequested amendment is not consistent with public convenience or necessity and the Application\nshould be denied. Approving the Application without a hearing pursuant to Modified Procedure\ncannot be justified under these circumstances because of the lack of information submitted by\nUnited Water.\nSincerely yours\nMOORE SMITH BUXTON & TURCKE , CHTD.\nBMS/dls\ncc: Joe Miller - McDevitt & Miller\nScott Woodbury" }

Permittees shall manage the construction wastewater in accordance with State\n22 Waste Discharge Permit ST 4511.\n23 111.11.G.2 Liquid accumulation within the LCRS, LDS, and SLDS prior to initial waste placement\n24 will be considered construction wastewater (i.e., not leachate).\n25 III.11.H LANDFILL LINER INTEGRITY MANAGEMENT & LANDFILL OPERATIONS\n26 111.11.H.1 Permittees shall design, construct, and operate the landfill in a manner to protect the\n27 liners from becoming damaged. Temperature: Waste packages with elevated\n28 temperatures shall be evaluated and managed in a manner to maintain the primary (upper)\n29 liner below the design basis temperature for the liner (e.g.,160 F). Weight: Waste, fill\n30 material and closure cover shall be placed in a manner that does not exceed the allowable\n31 load bearing capacity of the liner (weight per area 13,000 lb/ft2). Puncture: At least\n32 3 feet of clean backfill material shall be placed as an operations layer over the leachate\n33 collection and removal system to protect the system from puncture damage.\n34 111.11 .H.1.a All equipment used for construction and operations inside of the IDF shall meet the\n35 weight limitation as specified in Permit Condition III. 11 .H. 1. Only equipment that can\n36 be adequately supported by the operations layer as specified in Permit\n37 Condition 111.11 .H. I (e.g., will not have the potential to puncture the liner) shall be used\n38 inside of the IDF. All equipment used for construction and operations outside of the IDF\n39 shall not damage the berms. Changes to any equipment will follow the process\n40 established by condition II.R of the site wide permit. Within 120 days from the effective\n41 date for the permit, a process for demonstrating compliance with this condition shall be\n42 submitted for review by Ecology. This process will be incorporated into appropriate IDF\n43 operating procedures prior to IDF operations.\n44 111.11.H.2 The Permittees shall construct berms and ditches to prevent run-on and run-off in\n45 accordance with the requirements of Chapter 4, Section 4.3.8 of the IDF portion of this\n46 permit.\n47\nConditions.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Before the first placement of waste in the IDF, the Permittees shall submit to Ecology a\n2 final grading and topographical map on a scale sufficient to identify berms and ditches\n3 used to control run-on and run-off. Upon approval, Ecology will incorporate these maps\n4 into the permit as a Class 1' modification.\n5 111.11.H.3 The Permittees shall operate the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) IDF\n6 Cell (Celll) in accordance with WAC 173-303-665(2) and the operating practices\n7 described in Chapters 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, Addendum J.1, Addendum J.2, and\n8 Appendix 4A, § l, subsection 7, except as otherwise specified in this Permit.\n9 111.11 .H.4 The Permittees shall maintain a permanent and accurate record of the three-dimensional\n10 location of each waste type, based on grid coordinates, within the RCRA IDF Cell (Cell l)\n11 in accordance with WAC 173-303-665(5).\n12 111.11.1 WASTE ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA\n13 The only acceptable waste form approved for disposal at the RCRA cell of IDF are IDF\n14 operational waste, Immobilized Low Activity Waste (ILAW) in glass form from the\n15 Waste Treatment Plant (WTP) Low Activity Waste (LAW) Vitrification facility and\n16 ILAW from the Bulk Vitrification Research Demonstration and Development facility\n17 (up to 50 boxes). Specifics about waste acceptance criteria for each of these wastes are\n18 detailed below.\n19 No other waste forms may be disposed at the RCRA cell of IDF unless authorized via a\n20 Final Permit modification decision. Requests for Permit modifications must be\n21 accompanied by an analysis adequate for Ecology to comply with SEPA, as well as by a\n22 risk assessment and groundwater modeling to show the environmental impact. Permit\n23 Condition 111. 11.1.5 outlines the process by which waste sources in the IDF are modeled\n24 in an ongoing risk budget and a ground water impact analysis.\n25 III.11.1.1 Six months prior to IDF operations Permittees shall submit to Ecology for review,\n26 approval, and incorporation into the permit, all waste acceptance criteria to address, at a\n27 minimum, the following: physical/chemical criteria, liquids and liquid containing waste,\n28 land disposal restriction treatment standards and prohibitions, compatibility of waste with\n29 liner, gas generation, packaging, handling of packages, minimization of subsidence.\n30 111.11.1.1.a All containers/packages shall meet void space requirements pursuant to\n31 WAC 173-303-665(12).\n32 III.11.1.1.b Compliance Schedule\n33 111.1 1.1.b.i Six months prior to IDF operations, the Permittees shall submit to Ecology for review,\n34 approval, and incorporation into the permit any necessary modifications to the IDF Waste\n35 Analysis Plan (Chapters 3.0 of the IDF portion of this permit).\n36 111.11.1.2 ILAW Waste Acceptance Criteria\n37 The only ILAW forms acceptable for disposal at IDF are: (1) approved glass canisters\n38 that are produced in accordance with the terms, conditions, and requirements of the WTP\n39 portion of the Permit, and (2) the 50 bulk vitrification test boxes as specified in the\n40 Demonstration Bulk Vitrification System (DBVS) test plans.\n41 To assure protection of human health and the environment, it is necessary that the\n42 appropriate quality of glass be disposed at IDF. The Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR)\n43 Treatment Standard for eight metals (arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead,\n44 mercury, selenium and silver), when associated with High Level Waste, is HLVIT\n45 (40 CFR 268). Because these metals are constituents in the Hanford Tanks Waste, the\n46 LDR standard for ILAW disposed to IDF is HLVIT.\nConditions. 10\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI For any ILAW glass form(s) that DOE intends to dispose of in IDF, DOE will provide to\n2 Ecology for review, an ILAW Waste Form Technical Requirements Document\n3 (IWTRD). The IWTRD will contain:\n4 111.11.I.2.a WTP ILAW Waste Acceptance Criteria\n5 Ill.11.1.2.a.i A description of each specific glass formulation that DOE intends to use including a basis\n6 for why each specific formulation is proposed for use, which specific tank wastes the\n7 glass formulation is proposed for use with, the characteristics of the glass that are key to\n8 satisfactory performance (e.g., VHT, PCT, and TCLP and/or other approved performance\n9 testing methodologies that the parties agree are appropriate and necessary), the range in\n10 key characteristics anticipated if the specific glass formulation is produced on a\n11 production basis with tank waste, and the factors that DOE must protect against in\n12 producing the glass to ensure the intended glass characteristics will exist in the actual\n13 ILAW.\n14 Ill.11.1.2.a.ii A performance assessment that provides a reasonable basis for assurance that each glass\n15 formulation will, once disposed of in IDF in combination with the other waste volumes\n16 and waste forms planned for disposal at the entire Integrated Disposal Facility, be\n17 adequately protective of human health and the environment; and will not violate or be\n18 projected to violate all applicable state and federal laws, regulations and environmental\n19 standards.\n20 Within 60 days of a request by Ecology, the Permittees shall provide a separate model\n21 run using Ecology's assumptions and model input.\n22 11.1.2.a.iii A description of production processes including management controls and quality\n23 assurance/quality control requirements that assure that glass produced for each\n24 formulation will perform in a reasonably similar manner to the waste form assumed in the\n25 performance assessment for that formulation.\n26 The Permittees shall update the IWTRD consistent with the above requirements for\n27 review by Ecology consistent with their respective roles and authority as provided under\n28 the TPA. Ecology comments shall be dispositioned through the Review Comment\n29 Record (RCR) process and will be reflected in further modeling to modify the IDF ILAW\n30 Chapter 3.0, Waste Analysis Plan as appropriate.\n31 The initial IWTRD contained glass formulation data as required by Permit\n32 Condition 111.1 l.I.2.a.i, and was submitted on December 18, 2006 (AR Accession #\n33 0906020182). The performance assessment required by Permit Condition 111.1 1.1.2.a.ii,\n34 and the quality assurance/quality control requirements process required by Permit\n35 Condition 111.1 1.1.2.a.iii shall be submitted for Ecology review as soon as possible after\n36 issuance of the Final Tank Closure and Waste Management Environment Impact\n37 Statement (EIS) and receipt of underlying codes and data packages, and at least 180 days\n38 prior to the date DOE expects to receive waste at IDF. At a minimum, the Permittees\n39 shall submit updates to the IWTRD to Ecology every five years or more frequently with\n40 the next one due June 30, 2015, if any of the following conditions exist:\n41 * The Permittees submits a permit modification request allowing additional waste\n42 forms to be disposed of at IDF.\n43 * The WTP or other vitrification facility change their glass formulations from those\n44 previously included in the IWTRD.\n45 * An unanticipated event or condition occurs that Ecology determines would warrant\n46 an update to the IWTRD.\n47 III.11.1.2.a.iv The Permittees shall not dispose of any WTP ILAW not described and evaluated in the\n48 IWTRD.\nConditions. 11\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 111.11.1.3 ILAW Waste Acceptance Criteria Verification\n2 111.11.1.3.a Six months prior to disposing of ILAW in the IDF, the Permittees will submit an ILAW\n3 verification plan to Ecology for review and approval. This plan will be coordinated with\n4 WTP, Ecology, and the Permittees personnel. This plan will outline the specifics of\n5 verifying ILAW waste acceptance through WTP operating parameters, and/or glass\n6 sampling. The Plan will include physical sampling requirements for batches, glass\n7 formulations, and/or feed envelopes.\n8 111.11.1.4 Demonstration Bulk Vitrification System (DBVS) Bulk Vitrification Waste Acceptance\n9 Criteria\n10 111.1 1.1.4.a Bulk Vitrification waste forms that are acceptable to be disposed of at IDF are up to\n11 50 boxes of vitrified glass produced pursuant to the DBVS Research, Development, and\n12 Demonstration (RD&D) Permit from processing Hanford Tank S-109 tank waste.\n13 111.1 1.1.4.b If Bulk Vitrification is selected as a technology to supplement the Waste Treatment Plant,\n14 the IDF portion of the Permit will need to be modified to accept Bulk Vitrification Full\n15 Scale production waste forms. This modification will need to be accompanied by\n16 appropriate Tri-Party Agreement (TPA) changes (per M-062 requirements) and adequate\n17 risk assessment information sufficient for the Department of Ecology to meet its State\n18 Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) obligations.\n19 III.11.1.4.c DBVS Waste Acceptance Verification will occur on 100% of the waste packages.\n20 Pursuant to the DBVS RD&D Permit, a detailed campaign test report will be produced\n21 and submitted to Ecology detailing results of all testing performed on each waste package\n22 that is produced. IDF personnel shall review these reports to verify that the waste\n23 packages meet IDF Waste Acceptance Criteria.\n24 111.11.1.4.d The Permittees shall not dispose of any waste forms that do not comply with all\n25 appropriate and applicable treatment standards, including all applicable LDR.\n26 111.11.1.5 Modeling -Risk Budget Tool\n27 111.1 1.1.5.a The Permittees must create and maintain a modeling -risk budget tool, which models the\n28 future impacts of the planned IDF waste forms (including input from analyses performed\n29 as specified in Permit Conditions 111.1 1.1.2.a through 111.1 1.I.2.a.ii) and their impact to\n30 underlying vadose and ground water. This software tool will be submitted for Ecology\n31 review as soon as possible after issuance of Final Tank Closure and Waste Management\n32 EIS and receipt of underlying codes and data packages, and at least 180 days prior to the\n33 date DOE expects to receive waste at IDF. The risk budget tool shall be updated at least\n34 every 5 years. The model will be updated more frequently if needed, to support permit\n35 modifications or SEPA Threshold Determinations whenever a new waste stream or\n36 significant expansion is being proposed for the IDF. This risk budget tool shall be\n37 conducted in manner that is consistent with state and federal requirements, and represents\n38 a risk analysis of all waste previously disposed of in the entire IDF (both cell I and cell 2)\n39 and those wastes expected to be disposed of in the future for the entire IDF to determine\n40 cumulative impacts. The groundwater impact should be modeled to evaluate fate and\n41 transport in the groundwater aquifer(s) and should be compared against various\n42 performance standards including but not limited to drinking water standards (40 CFR 141\n43 and 40 CFR 143). Ecology will review modeling assumptions, input parameters, and\n44 results and will provide comments to the Permittees. Ecology comments shall be\n45 dispositioned through the Review Comment Record (RCR) process and will be reflected\n46 in further modeling to modify the IDF ILAW waste acceptance criteria as appropriate.\n47 11.1.5.a.i The modeling-risk budget tool will include a sensitivity analysis reflecting parameters\n48 and changes to parameters as requested by Ecology.\nConditions. 12\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Ill.11.1.5.a.ii If these modeling efforts indicate results within 75% of a performance standard\n2 [including but not limited to federal drinking water standards (40 CFR 141 and.\n3 40 CFR 143)], Ecology and the Permittees will meet to discuss mitigation measures or\n4 modified waste acceptance criteria for specific waste forms.\n5 III.11.1.5.a.iii When considering all the waste forms to be disposed of in IDF, the Permittees shall not\n6 dispose of any waste that will result (through forward looking modeling or in real\n7 groundwater concentrations data) in a violation of any state or federal regulatory limit,\n8 specifically including but not limited to drinking water standards for any constituent as\n9 defined in 40 CFR 141 and 40 CFR 143.\n10 111.11.1.6 The Permittees shall not dispose of any waste that is not in compliance with state and\n11 federal requirements as identified in Chapter 13.0.\n12 111.11.I.6.a In accordance with DOE's authority under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended\n13 and other applicable law, prior to disposing of any mixed immobilized low-activity waste\n14 (ILAW) in the IDF, DOE will certify to the State of Washington that it has determined\n15 that such ILAW is not high-level waste and meets the criteria and requirements outlined\n16 in DOE's consultation with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission beginning in 1993\n17 (Letter from R.M. Bernero, USNRC to J. Lytle, USDOE, dated March 2, 1993; Letter\n18 from J. Kinzer, USDOE, to C. J. Paperiello, USNRC, Classification of Hanford Low-\n19 Activity Tank Waste Fraction, dated March 7, 1996; and Letter from C.J. Paperiello,\n20 USNRC, to J. Kinzer, USDOE, Classification of Hanford Low-Activity Tank Waste\n21 Fraction, dated June 9, 1997). While the requirement to provide such certification is an\n22 enforceable obligation of this permit, the provision of such certification does not convey,\n23 or purport to convey, authority to Ecology to regulate the radioactive hazards of the waste\n24 under this permit.\n25 111.11.1.7 IDF Operational Waste Acceptance Criteria.\n26 111.1 1.7.a IDF operational activities (including decontamination, cleanup, and maintenance) will\n27 generate a small amount of waste. Waste that can meet IDF waste acceptance without\n28 treatment will be disposed of at the IDF. All other IDF operational waste will be\n29 managed pursuant to WAC 173-303-200.\n30\nConditions.13\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left bank.\n5\nConditions.14\n p\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nWASHINGTON STATE.\nDAE P A R TMENT 0 F Dangerous Waste Permit Application\nEC 0 L 0 G Y Part A Form\nDate Received Reviewed by: Date: 0 9 2 2 2 0 0 8\nMonth Day Year Approved by: L Date: 0 9 2 2 2 0 0 8\n0919 2008\n1.

Nature of Business (provide a brief description that includes both dangerous waste and non-dangerous\nwaste areas and activities)\nThe Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF) is an expandable lined landfill located in the 200 East Area of the\nHanford Facility. The landfill is divided lengthwise into distinct east and west cells, one for disposal of low-\nlevel radioactive waste (the east cell) and the other for disposal of mixed waste (the west cell). The cell for\ndisposal of low-level radioactive waste is outside the scope of this permit.\nMixed waste disposed at the IDF is currently limited to vitrified low-activity waste (LAW) from the Waste\nTreatment Plant (WTP) and Demonstration Bulk Vitrification System (DBVS). Additionally, mixed waste\ngenerated by IDF operations will be disposed of in IDF. (The IDF Permit requires modification if other waste\nstreams are proposed for disposal.) The vitrified waste form generated by both the WTP and the DBVS\nfacilities is known as Immobilized Low Activity Waste (ILAW) .The amount shown in Section XII of\n8.2-hectare meters (82,000 cubic meters) is the waste capacity of the initial construction. The amount will be\nrevised as required for future expansion to accommodate the entire waste volume through an approved\npermit modification.\nD80\nMixed radioactive high level wastes stored in the Double-Shell and Single-Shell Tank System carry the\ncharacteristic dangerous waste numbers D002, and D004 through D011 .The specified technology based\ntreatment standard for high-level radioactive waste as described in 40 CFR 268.40 (vitrification) will be used\nto produce the waste form that will be placed in steel canisters or steel boxes. Tank waste will meet this\nvitrification standard as the waste exits at the Waste Treatment Plant or Demonstration Bulk Vitrification\nSystem Facility. (Permit conditions for the WTP and DBVS require that the D001 and D003 waste codes be\nremoved prior to the waste stream entering these facilities.)\nIDF operational activities (including decontamination, cleanup, and maintenance) will generate a small\namount of waste. Waste that can meet IDF waste acceptance without treatment will be buried at the IDF.\nAll other IDF operational waste will be managed pursuant to WAC 173-303-200 and either sent to a 90-day\naccumulation area or directly to another permitted TSD for treatment. Treated IDF operational waste will\neither be buried at IDF or sent to another permitted Hanford TSD for final disposition.\nSol\nProcess Code SO1 (container storage) has been included within this Part A Form in the event that storage is\nrequired before final disposal (e.g., to support the staging and confirmation process of the waste or cooling\nof vitrified waste if required).\nAddendum A.3\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nEXAMPLE FOR COMPLETING ITEMS XII and XIII (shown in lines numbered X-1, X-2, and X-3 below): A facility has\ntwo storage tanks that hold 1200 gallons and 400 gallons respectively. There is also treatment in tanks at 20 gallons/hr.\nFinally, a one-quarter acre area that is two meters deep will undergo in situ vitrification.\nSection XII. Process Codes and Design Section XI1I.

Description of Dangerous Wastes\nExample for completing this section: A facility will receive three non-listed wastes, then store and treat them on-site.\nTwo wastes are corrosive only, with the facility receiving and storing the wastes in containers. There will be about 200\npounds per year of each of these two wastes, which will be neutralized in a tank. The other waste is corrosive and\nignitable and will be neutralized then blended into hazardous waste fuel. There will be about 100 pounds per year of that\nwaste, which will be received in bulk and put into tanks.\nB. Estimated D. Processes\nLine A. Dangerous Annual C.

(see Chapter 1, Part A Form). Vitrified LAW generated by RPP-\n7 WTP is known as Immobilized Low Activity Waste (ILAW) and generated by DBVS is known as Bulk\n8 Vitrified Waste (BVW). The IDF will be located in the 200 East Area of the Hanford Facility.\n9 The IDF also will receive low-level waste for disposal. Mixed waste will not be placed in the low-level\n10 waste portion of the IDF. The requirements of this WAP are applicable to mixed waste and are not\n11 applicable to the low-level radioactive waste. The term 'treatment, storage, and/or disposal (TSD) unit' is\n12 used throughout this WAP to refer to the IDF. Activities will be performed by the IDF operating\n13 organization, waste acceptance organization, or its delegated representative.\n14 Although the treatment and disposal of radioactive waste (i.e., source, special nuclear, and by-product\n15 materials as defined by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954) are not within the scope of Resource\n16 Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) of l976 or WAC 173-303, information is provided for general\n17 knowledge.\n18 3.1 Description of Unit Processes and Activities\n19 The IDF will be a single, expandable disposal facility constructed to RCRA Subtitle C standards, half of\n20 which is for disposal of mixed waste the other half will be for disposal of low-level waste. Initial capacity\n21 for mixed waste disposal is 82,000 cubic meters of waste with an ultimate capacity of up to 450,000 cubic\n22 meters of waste. Disposal capacity beyond the initial 82,000 cubic meters will require a modification to\n23 the Part B Permit. The mixed waste types to be disposed in the IDF include vitrified LAW from the\n24 RPP-WTP and DBVS. Additionally, mixed waste generated by IDF operations will be disposed of in\n25 IDF.\n26 The mission of the RCRA portion of the IDF is to provide an approved disposal facility for the\n27 permanent, environmentally safe disposition of mixed waste and RCRA waste.\n28 For ILAW, and BVW the container packaging and handling will be designed to maintain containment of\n29 each waste type, limit intrusion, and limit human exposure at the IDF. ILAW containers will be\n30 transported from the RPP-WTP to the IDF using a tractor-trailer system. BVW will be transported from\n31 the DBVS staging area to IDF using a similar system. Transport of the ILAW and BVW to the landfill\n32 will occur along a pre-determined route.\n33 The lined landfill will have a leachate collection and removal system. The leachate collection tanks will\n34 be operated in accordance with the generator provisions of WAC 173-303-200 and are not subject to this\n35 WAP.\n36 Additional information is located in Chapter 1.0 (IDF Part A) and Chapter 4.0 (Process Information).\n37 3.2 Identification and Classification of Waste\n38 The ILAW, BVW, and newly generated mixed waste will be accepted for disposal. The mixed waste\n39 disposed of at the IDF is received from waste generated within IDF, and two other Hanford Facility TSD\n40 units (RPP-WTP and DBVS). The following waste will not be accepted for disposal at this TSD unit:\n41 * Waste is not accepted for disposal when the waste contains free-standing liquid unless all\n42 free-standing liquid:\n43 o Has been removed by decanting or other methods.\n44 o Has been mixed with sorbent or stabilized (solidified) so that free-standing liquid is no longer\n45 observed.\n46 o Otherwise has been eliminated.\nChapter 3.8\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 o Container is very small, such as an ampoule.\n2 o Container is a labpack and is disposed in accordance with WAC 173-303-161 or 40 CFR\n3 264.316.\n4 o Container is designed to hold free liquids for use other than storage, such as a battery or\n5 capacitor.\n6 There could be cases in which small amounts of residual liquids are present in mixed waste containers\n7 because condensate has formed following packaging or free liquids remain in debris items (e.g.,\n8 pumps, tubing) even after draining. When it is not practical to remove this residual liquid, the free\n9 liquid must be eliminated to the extent possible by adding a quantity of sorbent sufficient to sorb all\n10 residual liquids.\n11 Free liquid is determined by SW-846, Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste: Physical/Chemical\n12 Method, Method 9095 (Paint Filter Liquids Test) [WAC 173-303-140(4)(b) and 40 CFR 264.314(d)]\n13 only for waste that has the potential for free liquid formation.\n14 * Gaseous waste not accepted for disposal if the is waste packaged at a pressure in excess of 1.5\n15 atmospheres at 200C.\n16 * Pyrophoric waste is not accepted for disposal. Waste containing less that 1 weight percent\n17 pyrophoric material partially or completely dispersed in each package is not considered\n18 pyrophoric for the purposes of this requirement.\n19 * Solid acid waste is not accepted for disposal [WAC 173-303-140(4)(c)].\n20 * Extremely hazardous waste that does not meet WAC 173-303-140(4)(d) is not accepted for\n21 disposal. Extremely hazardous waste that has been treated could be disposed in accordance with\n22 Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 70.105.050(2), \"Hazardous Waste Management.\"\n23 * Organic/carbonaceous waste that does not meet WAC 173-303-140(4)(d) is not accepted for\n24 disposal.\n25 * Waste not meeting the LDR treatment standards is not accepted for disposal [40 CFR 268 and\n26 WAC 173-303-140(4)].\n27 * Waste streams will be evaluated during pre-shipment review to ensure that the waste streams do\n28 not contain constituents incompatible with the liner system in concentration sufficient to degrade\n29 the liner. Table 1 provides a list of chemicals shown to be incompatible with the liner material at\n30 100% concentrations (WHC-SD-WM-TI-714). In general, mixed waste that meets federal and\n31 state treatment standards would be compatible with the TSD unit liner system. Waste accepted at\n32 the IDF will be compatible with the liner. Constituents in Table I will not be accepted for\n33 disposal (refer to Section 3.4.9 for waste stream compatibility).\n34 3.3 Management of Waste\n35 The ILAW, BVW, and newly generated wastes (see Section 3.3.1) generated during normal. operations of\n36 this TSD unit are accepted at this TSD unit for disposal. The two onsite TSD units (RPP-WTP and\n37 DBVS) transferring/shipping waste to this TSD unit hereafter are referred to as the 'generator' unless\n38 otherwise denoted in this WAP. The waste acceptance process for transfers from the generator is\n39 identified in Figure 1.\n40 Written waste tracking procedure(s) are implemented to ensure waste received at the TSD unit matches\n41 the manifest or transfer papers, to ensure that the waste is tracked though the TSD unit to final\n42 disposition, and to maintain the information required in WAC 173-303-380. The waste tracking process\n43 provides a mechanism to track waste through a uniquely identified container. The unique identifier is a\n44 barcode (or equivalent) that is recorded in the Solid Waste Information Tracking System (SWITS). This\n45 mechanism encompasses the waste acceptance process, the movement of waste, the processing of waste,\n46 and management of the waste.\nChapter 3.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The container identification number provides traceability between the TSD unit and the hard copy of\n2 records that are maintained as part of the operating record to ensure information relative to the location,\n3 quantity, and physical and chemical characteristics of the waste are available.\n4 The following sections describe the process for waste acceptance and the different types of information\n5 and knowledge reviewed/required during the acceptance process. The process for management of waste\n6 is described in Section 3.4.\n7 3.3.1 Newly Generated Waste within the IOF\n8 This TSD unit generates mixed waste as a result of operational (e.g., chemical, radiological) activities.\n9 These activities include, transfer functions along with inspection, decontamination, cleanup, maintenance\n10 tasks and leachate collection. The IDF generated operational waste will be maintained in accordance with\n11 generator provisions of WAC 173-303-200 and WAC 173-303-600(3)(d). Any newly generated waste\n12 (except leachate) not meeting IDF waste acceptance criteria will be designated and sent to another\n13 permitted TSD or to a 90 day accumulation area. IDF leachate will be managed in accordance with\n14 WAC 173-303-200 and transferred to the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility/Effluent Treatment Facility\n15 (LERF/ETF) (or other permitted TSD) for treatment. Solids or residuals resulting from IDF leachate\n16 treatment may be designated/packaged and sent back to the IDF for burial or to another permitted TSD.\nChapter 3.10\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nWaste Stream and Waste Transfer\n2 Transfer Need Waste Transfer Documentation\n3 is Identified - Information is - is Received\n4 Documented and Approved\n5\n6\n7\n8\n9\n10 Receipt Documentation and\n11 Waste is Inspection Perform Marking/Labeling\n12 Transferred Is Work . are Updated\n13 to TSD Unit Completed Through Processing\n14 1 1\n15\n16\n17\n18 Waste is\n19 Transferred\n20 for disposal\n21 T0201034.1\n22\n23 Figure 1.

The confirmation process consists of two parts, pre-shipment review, and verification.\n4 Confirmation activities are performed in accordance with TSD unit-specific governing documentation.\n5 The confirmation process is detailed in Figure 2 for ILAW and BVW.\n6 3.4.1 Pre-Shipment Review\n7 Pre-shipment review takes place before waste can be scheduled for transfer or shipment to this TSD unit.\n8 The review focuses on whether the waste stream is defined accurately and meets the TSD unit waste\n9 acceptance criteria and whether the LDR status is determined correctly. Only waste determined to be\n10 acceptable for storage (see Section 3.4.1.2.2) and/or disposal is scheduled. This determination is based on\n11 the information provided by the generator. The pre-shipment review consists of waste stream approval\n12 and the waste shipment approval process. The following sections discuss the pre-shipment review\n13 process. The information obtained during the pre-shipment review, at a minimum, includes all\n14 information necessary to safely dispose of the waste. The pre-shipment review ensures the waste is\n15 characterized and the data provided qualify as 'acceptable knowledge' (Section 3.4.1.4).\n16 3.4.1.1 Pre-Shipment Review of Wastes\n17 Pre-shipment review for ILAW and BVW waste containers will take place at RPP-WTP and the DBVS\n18 staging area respectively before either type of containers can be scheduled for transfer to the IDF. The\n19 review will focus on whether the waste stream is defined accurately, meets the waste acceptance criteria,\n20 and the land disposal restrictions (LDR) status was determined correctly. Only waste determined to be\n21 acceptable for storage (see Section 3.4.1.2.2) and/or disposal will be scheduled. This determination will\n22 be based on the information provided by the generator. The pre-transfer review will consist of the waste\n23 profile documentation and waste transfer approval process. The following sections discuss the\n24 pre-transfer review process. ILAW and BVW containers received for land disposal will be at least 90%\n25 full. The information obtained from the generator, at a minimum, will contain five elements:\n26 (1) Documentation to ensure waste can be managed pursuant to the Part A, Form 3.\n27 (2) Documentation to ensure the waste is not a prohibited waste in accordance with Section 3.2,\n28 (3) A determination if the waste is an ignitable, reactive, or incompatible waste as defined in\n29 WAC 173-303-040.\n30 (4) Documentation that waste meets LDR requirements of 40 CFR 268 and WAC 173-303-140.\n31 (5) Operational restrictions on acceptance of waste.\n32 During the waste profile documentation process for ILAW and BVW containers, the generator will have\n33 the responsibility to provide relevant information pertaining to the proper management of the waste.\n34 Characterization information pertaining to the treatment of ILAW and BVW will be obtained during the\n35 waste profile documentation process.\n36 3.4.1.2 Waste Stream Approval Process for Wastes\n37 The waste stream approval process consists of reviewing stream information supplied on a waste stream\n38 profile and supporting documentation to allow receipt of the waste into the IDF. Waste stream\n39 compatibility (i.e., compatibility between individual waste streams and compatibility between waste\n40 streams and landfill design and construction parameters) will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.\n41 Criteria for assessing and determining compatibility will be identified in either the facility Waste\n42 Acceptance Criteria, Waste Analysis Plan, or other protocol or procedure as appropriate.\n43 3.4.1.2.1 Waste Stream Approval for ILAW and BVW\n44 During the waste profile documentation process, the IDF waste acceptance organization will obtain the\n45 following information:\nChapter 3.12\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Description of waste generating process\n2 * Characterization data\n3 * Dangerous waste numbers\n4 * LDR data (as specified in Section 3.4.10)\n5 * Composition of ILAW and BVW including regulated constituents of concern (refer to Chapter\n6 1.0 of the permit application -Part A Form)\n7 The waste profile documentation process will be as follows.\n8 1. Appropriate generator fills out waste profile documentation.\n9 2. The IDF designated waste acceptance organization reviews the waste profile information against\n10 the waste acceptance criteria for each ILAW or BVW transfer.\n11 3. If discrepancies are noted, the IDF designated waste acceptance organization requests additional\n12 information from the generator to address discrepancies for either: (1) inconsistent information\n13 and (2) information not constituting acceptable knowledge (refer to Section 3.4.1.4.1).\n14 Information (waste profile documentation) is resubmitted by the generator addressing concerns in\n15 Item 3.\n16 * If concerns are addressed, waste profile documentation is approved.\n17 * If concerns are not addressed and met, waste profile documentation is not approved until concerns\n18 are corrected.\n19 3.4.1.2.2 Waste Stream Approval for Newly Generated Mixed Waste\n20 The waste stream approval process for wastes generated during IDF operations (except for leachate)\n21 consists of reviewing stream information supplied on a waste stream profile and supporting\n22 documentation. The waste stream profile requires the following supporting documentation:\n23 * Generator information (e.g., name, address, point-of-contact, telephone number)\n24 * Waste stream name\n25 * Waste generating process description\n26 * Waste numbers\n27 * Chemical characterization information (e.g., characterization method(s), chemicals present,\n28 concentration ranges)\n29 * Designation information\n30 * LDR information including identification of underlying hazardous constituents if applicable\n31 * Waste type information (e.g., physical state, adsorbents used, inert materials, stabilizing agents\n32 used)\n33 * Packaging information (e.g., container type, maximum weight, size).\n34 Attachments could consist of container drawings, process flow information, analytical data, etc.\n35 In some cases, such as variable waste streams, the waste stream profile information could be general in\n36 nature. In these cases, more detailed information is gathered during the waste shipment approval process\n37 on a per shipment basis. This information is reviewed against the TSD unit waste acceptance criteria to\n38 ensure the waste is acceptable for receipt. If conformance issues are found during this review, additional\n39 information is requested that could include analytical data or a sample to be analyzed.\n40 If the waste cannot be received, the TSD unit pursues acceptance of the waste at an alternate TSD unit.\n41 Once the waste meets the waste acceptance criteria, the TSD unit assigns the profile to a waste\n42 specification record and establishes a waste verification frequency based on the requirements found in\n43 Section 3.4.2. Profile information is re-evaluated as discussed in Section 3.4.7.\nChapter 3.13\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.4.1.3 Waste Transfer/Shipment Approval Process\n2 After the appropriate generator has received the waste profile documentation approval from IDF (refer to\n3 Section 3.4.1.2.1), the generator waste transfer will be subjected to the waste transfer approval process.\n4 Only those ILAW and BVW containers approved under the waste profile documentation as part of the\n5 waste transfer approval process will be transferred to the IDF. During the waste transfer approval\n6 process, the IDF designated waste acceptance organization will obtain the following information.\n7 For each ILAW or BVW container transfer that is a candidate for disposal in the TSD unit, the generator\n8 will provide the following information:\n9 * Container identification number\n10 * Profile number\n11 * Waste description\n12 * Generator information (e.g., name, address, point-of-contact, telephone number)\n13 * Container information (e.g., type, size, weight)\n14 * Waste numbers\n15 * LDR certification\n16 * Packaging materials and quantities\n17 The ILAW and BVW container transfer approval process will be as follows.\n18 1. The generator obtains information from existing database, operating record, or generator records\n19 on each ILAW container to be transferred under the approved waste profile documentation.\n20 2. Information is submitted to the TSD unit designated waste acceptance organization by the\n21 generator and is reviewed for the following:\n22 * Consistency with approved waste profile documentation.\n23 * Consistency with waste acceptance criteria within the IDF.\n24 3. If discrepancies are identified, the TSD unit designated waste acceptance organization will\n25 request additional information from the generator to address any discrepancies.\n26 4. Information (waste package documentation) is resubmitted by the generator addressing concerns\n27 in tem 3.\n28 5. If discrepancies are addressed, this information is forwarded to the TSD waste acceptance\n29 organization.\n30 6. If discrepancies are not addressed, transfer is not approved until discrepancies are corrected.\n31 3.4.1.4 Acceptable Knowledge Requirements\n32 The TSD unit ensures that all information used to make waste management decisions is based on\n33 adequate characterization data as described in the following sections. The TSD unit evaluates the data to\n34 ensure that the data are adequate acceptable knowledge for management of the waste.\n35 3.4.1.4.1 General Acceptable Knowledge Requirements\n36 One or more of the following types of information could be considered, provided that the information is\n37 of sufficient quality to demonstrate compliance with applicable waste acceptance criteria:\n38 * Mass balance from a controlled process that has a specified output for a specified input.\n39 * Material safety data sheet on chemical products.\n40 * Test data from a surrogate sample.\n41 * Analytical data on the waste or a waste from a similar process.\nChapter 3.14\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 In addition, acceptable knowledge requirements can be met using a combination of analytical data or\n2 screening results and one and/or more of the following information:\n3 * Interview information\n4 * Logbooks\n5 * Procurement records\n6 * Qualified analytical data\n7 * Radiation work package\n8 * Procedures and/or methods\n9 * Process flow charts\n10 * Inventory sheets\n11 * Vendor information\n12 * Mass balance from an uncontrolled process (e.g., spill cleanup)\n13 * Mass balance from a process with variable inputs and outputs (e.g., washing/cleaning methods)\n14 If the information is sufficient to quantify the constituents of regulatory concern and to determine waste\n15 characteristics as required by the regulations and TSD unit waste acceptance criteria, the information is\n16 considered acceptable. Adequate acceptable knowledge includes (1) general waste knowledge\n17 requirements and/or (2) LDR waste knowledge requirements.\n18 (1) General waste knowledge requirements. At a minimum, the generator supplies enough information\n19 for the waste to be managed at this TSD unit (refer to Section 3.4.1.1). The minimum level of\n20 acceptable knowledge consists of designation data where the constituents causing a waste number to\n21 be assigned are quantified and that data address any TSD unit operational parameters necessary for\n22 proper management of the waste.\n23 When process knowledge indicates that constituents, which if present in the waste might cause the\n24 waste to be regulated, are input to a process, but not expected to be in the waste, sampling and\n25 analysis must be performed to ensure the constituents do not appear in the waste above applicable\n26 regulatory levels. This requirement can be met through chemical screening. This sampling and\n27 analysis are required only for initial characterization of the waste stream.\n28 When the available information does not qualify as acceptable knowledge or is not sufficient to\n29 characterize a waste for management, the sampling and testing methods outlined in\n30 WAC 173-303-110 are used to determine whether a waste designates as ignitable, corrosive, reactive,\n31 and/or toxic and whether the waste contains free liquids as applicable. If the analysis is performed to\n32 complete characterization after acceptance of the waste by the TSD unit, this WAP governs the\n33 sampling and testing requirements.\n34 (2) LDR waste knowledge. The TSD unit operating record contains all information required to\n35 document that the appropriate treatment standards have been met or will be met after the waste is\n36 treated unless otherwise excepted in this section.\n37 * Both ILAW and BVW will be LDR compliant waste streams prior to acceptance at the IDF.\n38 Vitrification at the WTP and DBVS will facilitate LDR compliance for the majority of the\n39 mixed waste disposed of at IDF. IDF operational waste will be treated as needed to meet\n40 LDR at another TSD other than WTP or the DBVS\n41 * This TSD unit may use analytical data as necessary to ensure that the applicable requirements\n42 found in 40 CFR 268.7 and WAC 173-303-140(4) are met.\nChapter 3.15\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.4.1.4.2 Methodology to Ensure Compliance with LDR Requirements\n2 The generators are subject to LDR requirements and are required to submit all information notifications\n3 and certifications described in WAC 173-303-380(1), (j), (k), (n), and (o). Mixed waste not meeting the\n4 treatment standards cannot be disposed at this TSD unit.\n5 The following are general requirements for certification or information notification.\n6 * The waste is subject to LDR and the waste has been treated. The generator supplies the\n7 appropriate LDR certification information (40 CFR 268).\n8 * The waste is subject to LDR and the generator has determined that the waste meets the LDR as\n9 generated. The generator develops the certification based on process knowledge and/or analytical\n10 data and supplies the appropriate LDR certification information necessary to demonstrate\n11 compliance with the LDR treatment standards of 40 CFR 268 and WAC 173-303-140. State-only\n12 LDRs do not require this type of certification.\n13 When demonstrating that a concentration-based LDR treatment standard has been met, a representative\n14 sample of the waste must be submitted for analysis. This sample could be taken by the treatment facility\n15 or the generator and is required to comply with the LDR treatment standards contained in 40 CFR 268.40\n16 and 268.48 for underlining hazardous constituents.\n17 3.4.2 Verification\n18 Verification is an assessment performed by this TSD unit to substantiate that the waste received is the\n19 same as represented by the analysis supplied by the generator for the pre-shipment review. Verification\n20 for ILAW and BVW containers will contain one element, a 100% container receipt inspection.\n21 Physical/chemical screening will not be performed on the ILAW or BVW containers. Waste is not\n22 accepted by the TSD unit for disposal until the required elements of verification have been completed,\n23 including evaluation of any data obtained from verification activities. All conformance issues identified\n24 during the verification process are resolved in accordance with Section 3.4.3. Verification activity results\n25 will be documented by the IDF designated waste acceptance organization.\n26 Sampling and analysis for non-vitrification mixed waste (e.g., treatment residues from treatment of IDF\n27 leachate that are returned to IDF for disposal) will not occur at the IDF but will occur at another permitted\n28 TSD.\n29 3.4.2.1 Container Receipt Inspection\n30 Container receipt inspection is a mandatory element of the confirmation process.\n31 3.4.2.1.1 Container Receipt Inspection for ILAW and BVW\n32 The ILAW and BVW container receipt inspection will be performed by IDF designated waste acceptance\n33 organization. The following criteria will be evaluated during container receipt inspection:\n34 * Number of containers\n35 * Size of containers\n36 * Labels\n37 * Container integrity\n38 Discrepancies identified during the container receipt inspection will be communicated to generator.\n39 Discrepancies will be resolved before the containers are unloaded. Once the discrepancies are resolved,\n40 the ILAW containers will be unloaded and disposed. Should discrepancies remain unresolved after\n41 30 days, Ecology will be notified and daily walk around inspections conducted.\n42 3.4.2.2 Physical Screening Process\n43 The ILAW and BVW containers are not required to be physically screened because the generator verifies\n44 the waste meet the waste acceptance criteria for IDF.\nChapter 3.16\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.4.2.3 Chemical Screening Process\n2 Chemical screening is a verification element for containerized mixed waste. The ILAW and BVW\n3 containers are not required to be chemically screened because the generator verifies the waste meet the\n4 waste acceptance criteria for IDF.\n5 3.4.3 Waste Acceptance\n6 Initial acceptance of waste occurs only after the confirmation process described in Section 3.4 is\n7 complete. Conformance issues identified during the confirmation process are documented and managed\n8 in accordance with Section 3.4.1.2.2. Conformance issues that must be corrected before waste acceptance\n9 include the following:\n10 * Waste that is not identified in the Part A, Form 3 (Chapter 1.0).\n11 * Waste does not match approved profile documentation.\n12 * Designation, physical, and/or chemical characterization discrepancy.\n13 * Incorrect LDR paperwork.\n14 * Packaging discrepancy.\n15 * Manifest discrepancies as described in WAC 173-303-370(4).\n16 For waste shipments with unresolved conformance issue(s) that exceed 90 days, this TSD will notify\n17 Ecology at least once per calendar quarter.\nChapter 3.17\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nPre-transfer review\nwaste Is\nVitrified low Generator profile Yes waste transfer Yes Transfer\nactivity waste is contacts documentation approval of\ngenerated IDFWAO process process low\ncompleted completed\nNo No\nTransfe~r not\ninitiated\n,,Verification\nReceive waste at IDF Are Yes Dispose of\nand perform discrepancies Unload vitrified low\ncontainer inspection resolved activity waste\n? in IDF\nNo\nReject\ntransfer\nIDF = integrated Disposal Facility\nIDFWAO = IDF Wiaste Acceptnce Organization\nFigure 2.

Sampling and analysis for IDF operational mixed waste will not occur at\n10 the IDF but at another Hanford TSD.\n11 3.4.6 Selecting A Laboratory, Laboratory Testing, and Analytical Methods\n12 Any required sampling and analysis of the ILAW and BVW containers will be performed before the\n13 containers are closed at the RPP-WTP and DBVS respectively. No Laboratory, laboratory testing or\n14 analytical methods will be required to be identified.\n15 3.4.7 Selecting Waste Re-Evaluation Frequencies\n16 The re-evaluation (repeat and review) frequency for ILAW to review a waste generating process and\n17 associated waste profile documentation is every two years, or more often if conditions in\n18 WAC 173-303-300(4)(a) arise. Since BVW will be generated over a shorter time period, frequency for\n19 review will be every six months.\n20 When a waste generating process and associated waste profile documentation is re-evaluated, IDF\n21 personnel or designated waste acceptance organization could request the generator to do one or more of\n22 the following:\n23 * Verify the current waste profile documentation is accurate.\n24 * Supply new waste profile documentation.\n25 When a waste profile is re-evaluated, the TSD unit could request the organization generating the waste to\n26 do one of the following:\n27 * Verify the current waste profile is accurate.\n28 * Supply a new waste profile.\n29 * Submit a sample for parameter analysis.\n30 3.4.8 Special Waste Analysis Procedural Requirements\n31 Special procedural requirements for the IDF will include procedures for ignitable, reactive, and\n32 incompatible waste, and provisions for complying with federal and state LDR requirements. This section\n33 discusses any special process requirements for receiving mixed waste at this TSD unit.\nChapter 3.19\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.4.9 Procedures for Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Waste\n2 Waste stream compatibility (i.e., compatibility between individual waste streams and compatibility\n3 between waste streams and landfill design and construction parameters) and waste stream ignitability will\n4 be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Criteria for assessing and determining compatibility and ignitability\n5 will be identified in either the facility Waste Acceptance Criteria, Waste Analysis Plan, or other protocol\n6 or procedure as appropriate. Should these wastes be accepted, appropriate administrative and engineering\n7 controls will be implemented as necessary.\n8 This TSD unit does not accept reactive waste (refer to Section 3.2 and Section 3.4.1.1). The TSD unit\n9 ensures that reactive waste is not accepted at this TSD unit in the following manner.\n10 * Pre-shipment review will identify whether the waste is reactive based on the definition contained\n11 in WAC 173-303-040.\n12 * If analysis of the characterization information leads to a conclusion that the waste is a reactive\n13 waste, the containers, or waste will not be accepted.\n14 The types of prohibited waste not accepted at this TSD unit as listed in Section 3.2.\n15 3.4.10 Provisions for Complying With Federal and State Land Disposal Restriction\n16 Requirements\n17 State-only and federal LDR requirements restrict the land disposal of certain types of waste subject to\n18 RCRA and RCW 70.105, \"Hazardous Waste Management\", as amended. Waste managed on the Hanford\n19 Facility falls within the purview of these LDRs per 40 CFR 268 and WAC 173-303-140. The treatment\n20 standards for mixed waste disposed at IDF are based on the dangerous waste numbers accepted as\n21 documented on the IDF Part A as well as additional information necessary for identifying treatability\n22 groups etc.\n23 The IDF will not perform sampling and analysis to determine compliance with treatment standards\n24 contained in 40 CFR 268. Any sampling and analysis results required to demonstrate compliance with\n25 concentration-based treatment standards contained in 40 CFR 268.40 will be obtained by IDF waste\n26 acceptance organization from the generator, during the waste profile documentation process to meet the\n27 requirements of 40 CFR 268.7(c)(2). Sampling and analysis results will be placed into the unit-specific\n28 portion of the Hanford Facility operating record. Other LDR records are identified in\n29 WAC 173-303-380(1)(m) and will be obtained from the generator, by IDF personnel as part of either the\n30 waste profile documentation process or the waste transfer approval process. The treated waste must meet\n31 all applicable LDRs to be accepted for disposal at the IDF. IDF will obtain the LDR certification from\n32 the treatment unit.\n33 Mixed waste constituents that are subject to LDRs are identified in 40 CFR 268.40 by reference in\n34 WAC 173-303-140(2), the extremely hazardous waste disposal requirements for DOE facilities contained\n35 in RCW 70.105.050(2), and the state-only LDRs contained in WAC 173-303-140(4)(b)-(d). The mixed\n36 waste must meet certain treatment standards, as specified in 40 CFR 268.40, RCW 70.105.050(2), and\n37 WAC 173-303-140(4)(b)-(d), if the waste is to be land disposed. Any waste requiring LDR treatment\n38 must be treated prior to acceptance into the IDF.\n39 State-only LDRs for mixed waste will be met in the following manner:\n40 * Extremely hazardous waste disposal requirements in RCW 70.105.050(2) concerning \"all\n41 reasonable methods\" will be met by the treatment performed to meet 40 CFR 268,\n42 WAC 173-303-140(4)(b)-(d), and DOE requirements for disposal. If no treatment is required to\n43 meet 40 CFR 268, WAC 173-303-140(4)(b)-(d), or DOE requirements, no treatment is required\n44 to dispose of extremely hazardous waste at the IDF.\n45 * Special requirements for bulk and containerized liquids in WAC 173-303-140(4)(b) are identical\n46 to the landfill requirements contained in 40 CFR 264.314.\nChapter 3.20\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI For mixed waste, including the provisions when to perform the paint filter test, these\n2 requirements are described in Section 3.2 of the WAP.\n3 * Solid acid waste requirements in WAC 173-303-140(4)(c) can be met through knowledge of the\n4 treatment process. Sampling and analysis following treatment is not required to meet this state-\n5 only LDR. Disposal of treated solid acid waste still displaying the WSC2 characteristic can\n6 occur only when the waste is treated to reduce the harmful properties or characteristics of the\n7 waste.\n8 * Organic/Carbonaceous waste prohibition requirements in WAC 173-303-140(4)(d) do not apply\n9 to the Hanford Facility because the Hanford Facility is operating under\n10 WAC 173-303-140(4)(d)(iii), in accordance with a sitewide 1,609 kilometers (1,000-mile)\n11 inapplicability certification. Sampling and analysis is not required to determine the\n12 organic/carbonaceous content of a mixed waste.\n13 * Ecology allows treatment of Organic/Carbonaceous waste in lieu of meeting the inapplicability\n14 certification requirements WAC-173-303-140(4)(d)(iii) through macro-encapsulation for\n15 hazardous debris only.\n16 3.4.11 Off-Specification Waste\n17 Off-Specification ILAW or BVW is waste not meeting the waste acceptance criteria as described in\n18 Section 3.4, Confirmation Process. ILAW or BVW streams determined to be off-specification may be\n19 temporarily stored in the RCRA lined portion of the IDF pending resolution of discrepancy or return to\n20 generating TSD as long as these wastes meet LDR. ILAW and BVW may be temporarily stored in the\n21 RCRA lined portion of the IDF, provided the temperature administrative control limit is not exceeded,\n22 until sufficiently cool for disposal.\n23 3.5 Waste Tracking\n24 The IDF will monitor and record the placement of waste packages. At the time of final placement of each\n25 package, the position and serial number of the package will be logged.\n26 3.6 Recordkeeping\n27 Recordkeeping requirements that will be applicable to this WAP are as follows:\n28 * Confirmation records described in Section 3.4 will be maintained in accordance with\n29 Condition II.I.1.b of the Hanford Facility RCRA Permit, Dangerous Waste Portion (Ecology\n30 2001).\n31 * Waste profile documentation described in Section 3.4.1.2.1 will be maintained in accordance with\n32 Condition II.l.1 j of the Hanford Facility RCRA Permit, Dangerous Waste Portion.\n33 * LDR records described in Section 3.4.10 will be maintained in accordance with\n34 WAC 173-303-380(1)(m) in the IDF unit-specific portion of the Hanford Facility operating\n35 record.\n36 3.7 References\n37 Ecology, 2001, \"Hanford Facility RCRA Permit, Dangerous Waste Portion\", Washington State\n38 Department of Ecology, Olympia, Washington as amended.\n39 SW-846, Test

Therefore, information regarding the design,\n12 construction, and operation of the secondary leak detection system is provided in this application as\n13 information only. Pursuant to AEA, DOE has sole and exclusive responsibility and authority to regulate\n14 the source, special nuclear and by-product material component of radioactive mixed waste at DOE-owned\n15 nuclear facilities. Source, special nuclear and by-product materials, as defined by AEA, are not subject to\n16 regulation under Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) or the Hazardous Waste Management\n17 Act, by the State of Washington and are not be subject to State dangerous waste permit, orders, or any\n18 other enforceable instrument issued there under. DOE recognizes that radionuclide data may be useful in\n19 the development and confirmation of geohydrologic conceptual models. Radionuclide data contained\n20 herein is therefore provided as a matter of comity so the information may be used for such purposes.\n21 Waste stream compatibility (i.e., compatibility between individual waste streams and compatibility\n22 between waste streams and landfill design and construction parameters) will be assessed on a case-by-\n23 case basis. Criteria for assessing and determining compatibility is identified in the Waste Acceptance\n24 Criteria, Waste Analysis Plan, or other protocol or procedure as appropriate (Chapter 3.0, for further\n25 discussion of waste stream compatibility).\n26 Process Code SO1 (container storage) has been included within this permit, in the event that storage is\n27 required before final disposal (e.g., to support the confirmation process of the waste or cooling of vitrified\n28 waste if required). Waste failing the confirmation process (Chapter 3.0) will be identified as off-\n29 specification and may require storage prior to disposal. Only off-specification waste or vitrified waste\n30 requiring cooling (due to process heat) may be stored in the lined portion of the IDF pending disposition.\n31 To maintain operational flexibility, off-specification containers and vitrified waste requiring cooling\n32 could be left on the transport vehicles at the IDF until disposal can occur but may be off-loaded into the\n33 lined portion of the IDF pending final disposal provided the temperature administrative control limit is\n34 not exceeded. Off-specification waste and vitrified waste requiring cooling will be separated from other\n35 waste via tape, ropes, chains, or other cordon mechanism.\n36 4.1 Containers\n37 All mixed waste accepted for disposal at the IDF will be packaged in standard containers\n38 [U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and/or DOE], unless alternate packages are dictated by the\n39 size, shape, or form of waste (49 CFR 173) (e.g., metal boxes), and self-contained bulk waste.\n40 4.1.1 Description of Containers\n41 Mixed waste disposed at the IDF is limited to vitrified low-activity waste (LAW) from the RPP-WTP and\n42 DBVS. Additionally, mixed waste generated by IDF operations will be disposed of in IDF.\n43 The RPP-WTP and DBVS containers are designed specifically for the vitrified low activity waste form.\n44 Nominal RPP-WTP container dimensions will be 122 centimeters base outside dimension,\n45 107 centimeters top by 230 centimeters in length, with a wall thickness of 0.357 centimeter with a\n46 container volume of 2.55 cubic meters.\nChapter 4.5\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The DBVS container dimensions are approximately 2.4 meters wide by 3.1 meters tall and 7.3 meters\n2 long and a container volume of 54 cubic meters. The vitrified low activity waste will be compatible with\n3 the containers, stainless steel for RPP-WTP and carbon steel for DBVS. Before receipt at the IDF,\n4 containers will be closed by the generator.\n5 Due to the radioactivity and remote handling of the RPP-WTP immobilized waste containers,\n6 conventional labeling of the vitrified immobilized waste containers will not be feasible and an alternative\n7 to the standard labeling requirements will be used. This alternative labeling approach will use a unique\n8 alphanumeric identifier that will be welded onto each immobilized glass waste container. The welded\n9 \"identifier\" will ensure that the number is always legible, will not be removed or damaged during\n10 container decontamination, will not be damaged by heat or radiation, and will not degrade over time.\n11 The identifier will be welded onto the shoulder and sidewall of each immobilized glass container at two\n12 locations 180 degrees apart. Characters will be approximately 2 in. high by 1.5 in. wide. The identifier\n13 will be formed by welding on stainless steel filler material at the time of container construction. This\n14 identifier will be used to track the container from receipt at the RPP-WTP, throughout its subsequent path\n15 of shipment and disposal at the IDF.\n16 Each identifier will be composed of unique coded alphanumeric characters. This unique alphanumeric\n17 identification will be maintained within the plant information network, and will list data pertaining to the\n18 waste container including waste numbers, and the major risk(s) associated with the waste.\n19 Mixed waste generated through waste operations at IDF will be packaged based on the size of the waste,\n20 with the most common container being galvanized or aluminized 208-liter containers.\n21 The container packaging and handling for the IDF are designed to maintain containment of the waste,\n22 limit storage intrusion, and limit human exposure to mixed waste. Unusual sized containers such as\n23 vitrified LAW packages will be handled by using cranes or other appropriate equipment.\n24 Operations personnel will inspect each container to confirm appropriate documentation and compliance\n25 with the waste acceptance criteria before the container is placed in the IDF (refer to Chapter 3).\n26 If containerized mixed waste must be opened (i.e., for confirmation sampling, repackaging, etc.), the\n27 container typically would be removed to an onsite treatment and/or storage unit or other approved\n28 location before being opened. The container would be sealed before being returned to the IDF.\n29 4.2 Leachate Collection Tanks\n30 The aboveground leachate collection tank supports the lined IDF landfill. The leachate collection tank\n31 will be operated in accordance with the generator provisions of WAC 173-303-200 and\n32 WAC 173-303-640 as referenced by WAC 173-303-200.\n33 For informational purposes, the following is provided for an understanding of the operation of the\n34 Leachate Collection Tank. Procedures will be written to manage the leachate in accordance with\n35 WAC 173-303-200. The presence of leachate in the tank will be detected with instrumentation within the\n36 two stilling wells. The level instrument within the first stilling well monitors the depth of leachate in the\n37 tank. A second stilling well will have instrumentation for high-high and low-low alarm set-point trips.\n38 The leachate will be removed from the tank using a transfer pump.\n39 4.3 Landfills\n40 The following addresses the IDF lined landfill.\n41 4.3.1 List of Wastes\n42 IDF will receive mixed and/or dangerous waste.\n43 Waste will be accepted in containers (e.g. drums, boxes, larger containers).\n44 Waste streams acceptable at the IDF facility fall within the range of dangerous waste numbers identified\n45 in Chapter 1.0, Part A Form.\nChapter 4.6\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3.2 Liner System Exemption Requests\n2 This permit documentation does not seek an exemption to liner system requirements.\n3 4.3.3 Liner System, General Items\n4 This section provides a general description of the liner system to be used for the IDF lined landfill.\n5 The liner system was designed to prevent migration of leachate out of the lined landfill during the active\n6 life of the landfill. The Active Life will consist of the operational period and the closure/postclosure\n7 period. The liner system was designed to meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)\n8 requirements, as identified in RCRA Subtitle C requirements for hazardous waste disposal facilities\n9 (40 CFR 264), technical guidance documents (e.g., EPA 1985), and WAC-173-303-665. In addition, the\n10 liner system incorporates the following general functional requirements:\n11 * Range of Operating Conditions--year-round operation, withstand construction, and long-term\n12 stresses.\n13 * Degree of Reliability--function safely and effectively throughout operating and\n14 closure/postclosure period with minimum maintenance.\n15 * Intended Life--operational phase plus closure/postclosure monitoring phase.\n16 4.3.3.1 Liner System Description\n17 The landfill liner system will comply with WAC 173-303-665 requirements for dangerous waste landfills.\n18 Figure 4.2 shows a typical design and includes the following components (from top to bottom).\n19 * Operations layer: minimum 0.9-meter thick of native soil. This layer provides a working surface\n20 for equipment, protect the liner from mechanical damage, and prevent freezing of the underlying\n21 low-hydraulic conductivity soil layer. (Hydraulic conductivity is a measure of how rapidly a\n22 material can transmit water and is based on specific ASTM testing requirements.)\n23 * Leachate collection and removal system (LCRS) contains a minimum 0.3-meter-thick drainage\n24 gravel layer with a hydraulic conductivity of at least 1 x 10-2 centimeter per second (sometimes\n25 including perforated drainage pipes). A nonwoven separation geotextile is located between the\n26 operations layer and the drainage gravel layer to minimize sediment (fine-soil) migration into the\n27 LCRS. A nonwoven cushion geotextile is located between the drainage gravel and the primary\n28 geomembrane to protect the primary geomembrane.\n29 The LCRS liners collect and convey leachate to the LCRS sump for removal and include the following\n30 components.\n31 * Primary geomembrane liner: this liner consists of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) because of\n32 its excellent resistance to expected chemicals (Chapter 1.0), nominal 60-mil thickness (54-mil\n33 minimum), which is textured (to improve stability against sliding). The geomembrane acts as a\n34 moisture barrier. Located immediately above the primary geomembrane the LCRS includes a\n35 perforated pipe that helps collect and guide water into the leachate collection sump. The\n36 perforated pipe is located along the centerline of the cell and provides high-flow path water to the\n37 primary collection sump.\n38 * Primary geosynthetic clay liner (GCL): the GCL consisting of a high-swelling sodium synthetic\n39 mat containing bentonite with a hydraulic conductivity of 1 x 10' centimeter per second or less.\n40 This layer acts as an additional primary moisture barrier directly under the primary\n41 geomembrane.\n42 The leak detection system (LDS) is similar to the LCRS except the composite drainage net (CDN)\n43 replaces the primary gravel layer, the geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) is placed directly under the secondary\n44 geomembrane liner only under the LDS sump and the perforated pipes are not be needed because very\n45 high flow capacities are not be required.\nChapter 4.7\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The purpose of this system is to collect any leachate that leaks through the primary liner system and\n2 convey the leachate to the LDS sump for removal. The LDS also serves as a secondary LCRS. The LDS\n3 liners will collect and convey leakage to the LDS sump and include the following components:\n4 * Secondary geomembrane liner: same as primary geomembrane liner.\n5 * Secondary geosynthetic clay liner: same as primary geosynthetic clay liner.\n6 * Admix liner: a minimum 0.9-meter-thick layer of compacted soil/bentonite admixture with a\n7 hydraulic conductivity of 1 x 10-7 centimeter per second or less. The bentonite is high-swelling\n8 sodium bentonite. This layer acts as an additional moisture barrier directly under the secondary\n9 geosynthetic clay liner in the LDS sump area and the secondary geomembrane outside the LDS\n10 sump area.\n11 * The secondary leak detection system (SLDS) consists of operations layer type fill for a\n12 foundation of the LDS admix layer, drainage gravel with a hydraulic conductivity of at least I x\n13 10-2 centimeter per second adjacent to a perforated pipe, a composite drainage net (CDN) and\n14 tertiary geomembrane. A nonwoven separation geotextile is located between the operations layer\n15 type material and the drainage gravel to minimize sediment (fine-soil) migration into the SLDS\n16 piping. The purpose of this system is to provide access to the area immediately below the LDS\n17 sump area. The SLDS collects liquids resulting from construction water and potentially, liquid\n18 from other sources. The SLDS liners will convey collected liquids to the SLDS piping for\n19 monitoring and/or removal. (Note that the secondary leak detection system is not a design\n20 requirement of WAC 173-303-665, however DOE is adding the design feature pursuant to its\n21 authority under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (AEA) and not for the purposes of compliance\n22 with the dangerous waste regulations. Therefore, information regarding the design, construction,\n23 and operation of the secondary leak detection system is provided in this application as\n24 information only. Pursuant to AEA, DOE has sole and exclusive responsibility and authority to\n25 regulate the source, special nuclear and by-product material component of radioactive mixed\n26 waste at DOE-owned nuclear facilities. Source, special nuclear and by-product materials, as\n27 defined by AEA, are not subject to regulation under RCRA or the Hazardous Waste Management\n28 Act, by the State of Washington and are not be subject to State dangerous waste permit, orders, or\n29 any other enforceable instrument issued there under. DOE recognizes that radionuclide data may\n30 be useful in the development and confirmation of geohydrologic conceptual models.\n31 Radionuclide data contained herein is therefore provided as a matter of comity so the information\n32 may be used for such purposes).\n33 4.3.3.1.1 Operations Layer\n34 The purpose of the operations layer is to protect the underlying liner components from damage by\n35 equipment during lined landfill construction and operation. This layer also protects the admix layer from\n36 freezing and desiccation cracking.\n37 Previous research and experience has shown that desiccation cracks can occur under geomembrane liners\n38 when either the liner is not in close contact with the compacted admix or when the liner is subjected to\n39 wide temperature fluctuations (Corser and Cranston 1991). The operations layer acts as a weight to keep\n40 the geomembrane in contact with the admix, thereby reducing the potential for water vapor to form in an\n41 underlying airspace. The operations layer also acts as an insulating layer, together with the dead air space\n42 trapped in the underlying drainage layers.\n43 The operations layer material typically consists of onsite granular soil that is reasonably well graded. The\n44 material has a maximum particle size limit of 5.1 centimeters or less, to facilitate protection of the\n45 underlying layers.\n46 4.3.3.1.2 Leachate Collection and Removal System\n47 The LCRS is located below the operations layer and provides a flow path for the leachate flowing into the\n48 LCRS sump.\nChapter 4.8\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Between the operations layer and the underlying drainage gravel, a geotextile layer functions as a filter\n2 separation barrier. The geotextile prevents migration of fine soil and clogging of the drainage gravel. On\n3 the lined landfill floor the drain gravel is a minimum 0.3-meter-thick layer of washed, rounded to\n4 subrounded stone, with a hydraulic conductivity of at least I x 10-2 centimeter per second. In addition, a\n5 perforated high-density polyethylene drainage pipe placed within the drainage gravel accelerates leachate\n6 transport into the LCRS sump during high precipitation events. On the lined landfill floor, the drain\n7 gravel layer is underlain by a geotextile cushion resting on the primary high-density polyethylene\n8 geomembrane. The geotextile provides additional protection for the primary geomembrane on the floor\n9 of the landfill.\n10 On the lined landfill sideslopes, the LCRS has a composite drainage net (CDN) layer composed of a\n11 geonet (which is a network of HDPE strands, interwoven and bonded to form a panel that provides a\n12 drainage pathway for fluids), with a layer of geotextile thermally bonded to each side. This CDN layer\n13 has a transmissivity of at least 3 x 10-' meters squared per second. The CDN is used on the sideslopes to\n14 avoid problems associated with placement of clean granular material on slopes, thereby minimizing the\n15 potential for damaging the underlying liner system.\n16 4.3.3.1.3 Primary Geomembrane Liner\n17 The primary geomembrane liner acts both as an impermeable leachate barrier and as a flow surface,\n18 routing leachate to the primary sump. High-density polyethylene was used because of its high resistance\n19 to chemical deterioration. Generally, textured (roughened) geomembrane is used to maximize shear\n20 strength along adjacent interfaces and to reduce the potential for sliding of the liner system.\n21 4.3.3.1.4 Primary Geosynthetic Clay Liner Layer\n22 A primary geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) consists of a mat of bentonite placed between two geotextiles.\n23 The GCL is installed immediately beneath the primary high-density polyethylene liner on the floor of the\n24 lined landfill only. The purpose of this liner is to provide extra protection in the case of deterioration\n25 (such as stress cracking) of the primary geomembrane where operations will continue for several years.\n26 The.in-place hydraulic conductivity of the GCL is I x 10-' centimeter per second or less, exceeding the\n27 WAC hydraulic conductivity requirement for the secondary soil liners. The upper surface of GCL\n28 provides a smooth uniform surface on which to place the overlying geomembrane liner.\n29 4.3.3.1.5 Leak Detection System\n30 The LDS provides the flow path for leachate flowing into the LDS sump. The following is a description\n31 of the system to be used in the IDF landfill.\n32 The LDS has a CDN drainage layer on the floor, and a CDN drainage layer on the sideslopes. The CDN\n33 consist of a layer of geotextile thermally bonded to each side of the geonet. These materials and their\n34 configuration is similar to the LCRS described in Section 4.3.3.1.2, except for the absence of a drainage\n35 gravel layer and a perforated drainage pipe system on the floor of the lined landfill. The LDS will\n36 channel leachate that penetrates the primary liner system through the CDN into the leak detection sump.\n37 The LDS serves as a secondary LCRS for the IDF. Leachate collected in the secondary sump will be\n38 measured to determine the leakage rate through the primary liner.\n39 4.3.3.1.6 Secondary and Tertiary Geomembrane Liner\n40 The secondary geomembrane liner, located underneath the LDS, is placed directly against the secondary\n41 compacted admix liner, except in the LDS sump area which includes a geosynthetic clay liner between\n42 the secondary geomembrane liner and the secondary compacted admix liner. For information only, the\n43 teriary geomembrane liner for the SLDS is placed directly against subgrade as per Section 4.3.3.1.8. The\n44 secondary and teriary geomembrane liners are similar to the primary geomembrane described in\n45 Section 4.3.3.1.3. The secondary geosynthetic clay liner material is similar to the primary geosynthetic\n46 clay liner described in Section 4.3.3.1.4.\nChapter 4.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3.3.1.7 Secondary Admix Liner\n2 The secondary admix liner has a minimum 0.9-meter-thick compacted soil/bentonite admixture located\n3 immediately beneath the secondary high-density polyethylene liner, as required by WAC 173-303-665.\n4 The secondary admix liner typically consists of silty sand from local borrow sources mixed with a\n5 nominal 12 percent sodium bentonite, by dry weight. The in-place hydraulic conductivity of the admix\n6 liner is 1 x 10' centimeter per second or less, consistent with WAC requirements for secondary soil\n7 liners. The upper surface of the secondary admix liner is trimmed to the design grades and tolerances.\n8 The surface was rolled with a smooth steel-drum roller to remove all ridges and irregularities. The result\n9 is a smooth uniform surface on which to place the overlying geomembrane liner.\n10 4.3.3.1.8 Subgrade/Liner System Foundation\n11 The lined landfill in the IDF is founded in undisturbed native soils or material compacted to at least 95%\n12 of a standard proctor maximum density (determined by ASTM D698). The liner system foundation is\n13 discussed in further detail in Section 4.3.4.\n14 4.3.3.1.9 Access Ramp\n15 The lined landfill has an access ramp outside the lined portion of the landfill, minimizing damage to the\n16 liner system from vehicle traffic into the lined landfill. As the landfill expands the access ramp will be\n17 reconstructed to the south of each expansion in the landfill. The access ramp design could vary as the\n18 landfill expands.\n19 4.3.3.1.10 Landfill Expansion\n20 The initial phase of the IDF liner was complete at the north end of the landfill. As shown in Figure 4.1,\n21 construction of the initial IDF phase completed the liner system on the north sideslope and the excavated\n22 portions of the landfill floor, east sideslope, and west sideslope. The dashed line of Figure 4.1 across the\n23 south edge of the landfill floor denotes the southern extent of the landfill liner. The liner system will be\n24 installed to extend approximately 15 meters beyond the estimated toe of slope of the first phase waste\n25 placement. This extension will also allow waste haul vehicles to be staged or unloaded over a lined area.\n26 Termination detail for the south edge of the liner system is found in Appendix 4A, drawing H-2-830840.\n27 The south sideslope of the first phase of IDF is not lined to allow future expansion of the IDF. At the\n28 south end of the cells is a storm water berm/ditch with an infiltration area, which will capture clean runoff\n29 from the unlined south sideslope before it runs onto the lined landfill. The landfill floor slopes up 1%\n30 from north to south to allow adequate leachate collection capacity for a 25-year storm event. Each future\n31 liner construction project will connect to the south edge of the previously constructed liner and operations\n32 systems and extend the disposal area further to the south. With the expansion of the IDF in subsequent\n33 phases, access ramps for the previous phase will be destroyed and new ramps built on the south edge of\n34 the landfill.\n35 4.3.3.2 Liner System Location Relative to High Water Table\n36 The water table is located approximately 90 to 100 meters below the ground surface in the IDF. It is\n37 anticipated that the deepest point of the liner system is no greater than 20 meters below ground surface.\n38 Consequently, the liner systems is at least 69 meters above groundwater. The liner systems will not be\n39 affected by the water table because of this large elevational difference.\n40 4.3.3.3 Loads on Liner System\n41 The liner system experiences several types of stresses during construction, operation, and\n42 closure/postclosure periods. The following sections discuss the types of stress and analytical methods\n43 used to design the IDF liners.\n44 4.3.3.3.1 Liner Stress\n45 The geosynthetic liner components experience some stress particularly during installation and before\n46 placing waste in the lined landfill but also during the entire lifecycle.\nChapter 4.10\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The high-density polyethylene liner is temperature sensitive, expanding, and contracting as liner\n2 temperatures increase and decrease. Thermally induced stresses could develop in the liner if deployment\n3 and anchoring occur just before a significant decrease in the liner temperature. The operations layer is\n4 sufficiently thick to ensure liner stress remains below the yield strain and stress. Administrative\n5 procedures will prevent loading and backfilling of waste exceeding applicable thermal limits due to recent\n6 vitrification processes to avoid potential liner damage.\n7 The drainage gravel has the potential to produce localized stress on the geomembrane liner during gravel\n8 placement with construction equipment. The geotextile cushion placed at the base of the drainage gravel\n9 protects the underlying geomembrane. A puncture analysis was performed to select a sufficiently thick\n10 cushion geotextile. This analysis incorporated expected construction vehicle ground pressures and design\n11 drainage gravel gradation listed in the construction specifications. If required, engineering controls such\n12 as independent foundations will be installed to minimize liner stress involved with large package disposal.\n13 On the landfill sideslopes, tension induced by liner-component load transfer is not anticipated, because\n14 the liner interface effective shear strength angles are higher than the sideslope angles. The liner\n15 component interface strengths were determined by laboratory direct shear tests. Both static and dynamic\n16 stability analyses were performed, using standard methods, design accelerations, and factors of safety.\n17 Stress on the geomembrane in the anchor trench also was evaluated during detailed design. Wind uplift\n18 and thermal expansion and contraction could cause stress in the geomembrane during construction.\n19 However, these stresses are not be a problem, because the stress is relatively low as compared to the\n20 tensile strength of the liner. In addition, these stresses are minimized by using sand bags to control liner\n21 position during liner panel placement and welding, as well as keeping the anchor trench open until the\n22 liner is stabilized with overlaying fill material. Placement of overlaying fill material is controlled to limit\n23 stress buildup in the liner. The stress is not present after construction, because of the weight and\n24 insulating properties of the operations layer.\n25 4.3.3.3.2 Stress Resulting From Operating Equipment\n26 Operations equipment provides a design load case on the IDF liner, which was analyzed as part of the\n27 IDF design (Appendix 4A). The analyses show that the 0.9-meter-thick operations layer dissipates stress\n28 produced by the operating equipment and is sufficient to protect the IDF liner system.\n29 4.3.3.3.3 Stress from Maximum Quantity of Waste, Cover, and Proposed\n30 Closure/Postclosure Land Use\n31 When the lined landfill is full and the cover system is in place, the liner system will experience a static\n32 load from the overlying waste, backfill, and cover materials. No significant increase in stresses on the\n33 liner system is anticipated from closure/postclosure land use. The maximum design load of material\n34 overlying the liner system includes an allowance for the cover system. Analyses include puncture\n35 protection of the geomembrane by the cushion geotextile, and decrease in transmissivity of CDN drainage\n36 layers. Materials were specified based on the ability of the materials to perform adequately under\n37 closure/postclosure loading conditions.\n38 Dynamic stress on the liner system will result primarily from ground accelerations during seismic events.\n39 Both static and dynamic analyses were performed on the subgrade and liner components based on the\n40 finished configuration of the empty landfill. Under closure/postclosure conditions, the waste, backfill,\n41 and cover materials will tend to buttress the liner system, resulting in greater stability relative to the\n42 operational phase. All of the analyses verified adequate stability for the IDF.\n43 4.3.3.3.4 Stresses Resulting From Settlement, Subsidence, or Uplift\n44 The subgrade settlement produced by waste loading essentially will be elastic because of the\n45 coarse-grained, noncohesive, and drained nature of the soil. The subgrade rebounded during the\n46 excavation phase of construction and will settle as the landfill is filled. The compacted admix liner will\n47 consolidate under waste loads. The total settlement will be a combination of the subgrade elastic and the\n48 admix consolidation settlements.\nChapter 4.11\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI These settlements were analyzed with standard methods during detailed design of the lined landfill. In\n2 general, differential settlements will be expected to occur primarily across the lined landfill sideslopes as\n3 the thickness of waste decreases from maximum to zero. The geosynthetic liner components were\n4 analyzed, the anticipated strains likely will not produce any appreciable stresses in the liner system.\n5 The potential for subsidence-induced stress is believed to be negligible based on the following\n6 information:\n7 * The soils underlying the IDF tend to be coarse-grained soils, sands, and gravels, in a relatively\n8 dense configuration that will not be subject to piping effects that could transport soil resulting in\n9 subsidence.\n10 * The groundwater level is deep, at least 69.6 meters below the base of the lined landfill, and will\n11 not affect bearing soils.\n12 * No natural voids, or man-made mining or tunneling has been noted. If the groundwater level was\n13 lowered substantially and consolidation occurred in the aquifer, local site-specific subsidence\n14 would be negligible because of the depth of the groundwater below the lined landfill.\n15 The potential for stresses resulting from uplift on the liner system also is expected to be negligible. The\n16 seasonal groundwater level is very deep, and higher-elevation perched groundwater likely will not\n17 develop because of the absence of aquitards in the coarse-grained Hanford formation underlying the IDF.\n18 The coarse-grained nature of the Hanford formation also promotes rapid, primarily vertical, infiltration,\n19 which means it is unlikely that infiltration from outside the lined landfill boundary would be transported\n20 laterally underneath the landfill liner. Gas pressures similarly are unlikely to develop because of the\n21 absence of any organic material that could generate significant subsurface gas (from organic material\n22 decomposition) and the coarse-grained, highly permeable sands and gravels underlying the landfill.\n23 4.3.3.3.5 Internal and External Pressure Gradients\n24 Pressure gradients across the liner caused by liquids or gases will be expected to be negligible. Internal\n25 pressures due to liquids will be controlled by the leachate collection and removal system. Because\n26 leachate will be removed from the flat 50-foot by 50-foot LCRS sump in a timely manner, there will be\n27 minimal liquid head on the liner (less than 30.5 centimeters according to WAC regulations). Gas\n28 generated internally is expected to be minimal because waste is inorganic and non-reactive. However,\n29 any pre-closure internally generated gas will be vented through either the waste or the leachate collection\n30 system. The closure cover design will consider gas venting.\n31 External pressures on the liner system is expected to be minimal. Gas pressures will be negligible\n32 because the subgrade soil contains no gas producing materials and is highly permeable, readily venting\n33 any potential gas to the atmosphere. External pressure from liquids is not anticipated because of the deep\n34 groundwater table and the highly permeable foundation soils.\n35 4.3.3.4 Liner System Coverage\n36 The liner system covers all soils underlying the lined landfill and extends over the crest of the sideslopes\n37 into the anchor trench (Figure 4.2, Detail 3).\n38 4.3.3.5 Liner System Exposure Prevention\n39 No geosynthetic or admix components of the liner system are exposed to the atmosphere. The minimum\n40 0.9-meter-thick operations layer covers the entire lined landfill surface. This layer serves both as a\n41 physical protective barrier and as thermal insulation, protecting the admix layer from desiccation and frost\n42 damage.\n43 Excessive erosion, such as gullying, will be repaired by replacing the eroded soil. Dust suppression\n44 agents will be used to prevent excessive wind erosion on the landfill sideslopes. The dust suppression\n45 agents will bind the surface of the operations layer and will minimize wind entrainment of soil.\nChapter 4.12\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3.4 Liner System, Foundation\n2 The following sections discuss the foundations beneath the liner systems.\n3 4.3.4.1 Foundation Description\n4 At the IDF, the Hanford formation consists mainly of sand dominated facies with lesser amounts of silt\n5 dominated and gravel dominated facies. Where sands are present, these sands are underlain by the\n6 Hanford formation. Here, the Hanford formation has been described as poorly sorted pebble to boulder\n7 gravel and fine to course grained sand, with lesser amounts of interstitial and interbedded silt and clay.\n8 The two geologic units pertinent to the IDF lined landfill are summarized as follows.\n9 Recent eolian sand: The sand is light olive gray in color and has a density that is loose at the surface but\n10 becomes compact with depth. The sand has a fine to medium grain size and includes little to some\n11 nonplastic silt-sized fines. The deposit is homogeneous except for a distinguishable layer of volcanic ash\n12 in some locations.\n13 Glaciofluvial flood deposit: This deposit has well graded mixtures of sands and gravels with trace to little\n14 nonplastic silt-sized particles. The gravel content can vary with depth, and the deposit can become\n15 predominantly gravel. This coarse-grained deposit is part of the Cold Creek Bar, which was formed\n16 during the Pleistocene Epoch by glacial outburst flooding.\n17 4.3.4.2 Subsurface Exploration Data\n18 Geological site investigations were used to support the detailed design of the landfill. The investigations\n19 consisted of a review of historical data, including well logs (Chapter 5.0), exploratory borings, and\n20 surface pit samples data. Because the foundation soils are relatively consistent over broad areas, the need\n21 for additional borings and geophysical investigations will be determined on a case-by-case basis. If\n22 boreholes are drilled, penetration test data will be collected to determine the strength of the foundation\n23 materials in situ.\n24 4.3.4.3 Laboratory Testing Data\n25 Laboratory testing will be performed on the surface soil samples and borings, both from the lined landfill\n26 site and from potential borrow source locations as follows. Testing will be performed to classify soils,\n27 provide input parameters to verify engineering analyses, and for preparing material and construction\n28 specifications. The following tests will be performed on the soil samples:\n29 * Visual classification (ASTM D2487)--to classify soils\n30 * Natural moisture content (ASTM D2216)--for input to engineering analyses and preparing\n31 construction specifications\n32 * Particle size analysis (ASTM D422 or D1 140/C136)--for classification and input to engineering\n33 analyses\n34 * Moisture-density relationships (ASTM D698 or D1557)--for preparing compaction specifications\n35 Laboratory testing will be performed according to the most recent versions of ASTM methods or other\n36 recognized standards. Additional tests will be performed as needed.\n37 4.3.4.4 Engineering Analyses\n38 The subgrade will be required to support the liner system and overlying materials (waste, fill, and cover)\n39 without excessive settlement, compression, or uplift that could damage the liner system. This section\n40 describes the design approach used to satisfy these criteria.\n41 4.3.4.4.1 Settlement Potential\n42 The subgrade settlement produced by waste loading essentially will be elastic because of the\n43 coarse-grained, noncohesive, and drained nature of the soil. The subgrade will rebound during the\n44 excavation phase of construction and will settle as the landfill is filled.\nChapter 4.13\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI An elastic settlement analysis using standard methods was performed and results indicate the magnitude\n2 of the total and differential settlement is within performance limits.\n3 4.3.4.4.2 Bearing Capacity\n4 The bearing capacity of the subgrade soil will need to support structures such as leachate collection tanks.\n5 The construction specifications typically will require that the upper portion of the subgrade soil and all\n6 structural fill be moisture conditioned and compacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum standard\n7 Proctor dry density (ASTM D698). Maximum allowable bearing capacities for foundations have been\n8 established using standard geotechnical methods. Bearing capacities for the types of soils expected at the\n9 IDF typically are greater than the maximum expected loads from the support structures.\n10 4.3.4.4.3 Stability of Lined Landfill Slopes\n11 The lined landfill was constructed in eolian sand and the underlying coarse-grained Hanford formation.\n12 In granular, cohesionless, and drained soils such as these, the stability of the slope will be related\n13 primarily to the maximum slope angle. Both veneer and global stability analyses were performed to\n14 determine both static and dynamic sideslope stability. Results demonstrate adequate stability for the IDF\n15 throughout its design life.\n16 4.3.4.4.4 Potential for Excess Hydrostatic or Gas Pressures\n17 Because the seasonal high-water level is at least 69 meters below the base of the deepest lined landfill, no\n18 external hydrostatic pressure will be expected from this source. Because of the coarse-grained nature of\n19 the foundation soils, any infiltration of surface water around the perimeter of the lined landfill will be\n20 expected to travel primarily downward. Therefore, infiltration should not cause substantial pressure on\n21 the exterior of the liner system. Internal hydrostatic pressure from leachate will be negligible because the\n22 leachate will be removed from the lined landfill to limit head on the liner.\n23 Gas pressure exerted externally on the liner system is expected to be negligible, because no\n24 gas-generating material (i.e., organic material) is expected in the foundation soils. If any gas were\n25 generated below the liner system, little pressure buildup would occur because of the unsaturated\n26 coarse-grained nature of the foundation soils, which would vent the gas to the atmosphere. Internal gas\n27 pressure buildup will not be anticipated, because wastes are generally inorganic and have low gas\n28 generating potential, and the leachate collection system will be vented to the atmosphere and dissipates\n29 any gas.\n30 4.3.4.4.5 Seismic Conditions\n31 Potential hazards from seismic events will include faulting, slope failure, and liquefaction. Disruption of\n32 the lined landfill by faulting is not considered a significant risk because (1) no major faults have been\n33 identified at the IDF (DOE/RW-0 164) and (2) only one central fault at Gable Mountain on the Hanford\n34 Site shows evidence of movement within the last 13,000 years. The potential for slope failure is\n35 considered low, because granular materials typically have high strengths relative to the maximum\n36 sideslope angles expected for the lined landfill. Liquefaction will occur in loose, poorly graded granular\n37 materials that are subjected to shaking from seismic events. Saturated soils will be most susceptible\n38 because of high dynamic pore pressures that temporarily lower the effective stress. During this process,\n39 the soil particles will be rearranged into a denser configuration, with a resulting decrease in volume. The\n40 foundation materials at the IDF is not considered susceptible to liquefaction because the materials are\n41 well graded granular soils that are unsaturated and relatively dense.\n42 The IDF support building (not sited within the TSD boundary) will be located in Zone 2B as identified in\n43 the Uniform Building Code (ICBO 1997).\n44 4.3.4.4.6 Subsidence Potential\n45 In general, subsidence of undisturbed foundation materials would be the result of dissolution, fluid\n46 extraction (water or petroleum), or mining. The potential for subsidence will be negligible at the IDF\n47 based on the following.\nChapter 4.14\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * The soils underlying the IDF are coarse-grained sands and gravels, in a relatively dense\n2 configuration, which are not subject to piping that can cause transport of soil and resulting\n3 subsidence.\n4 * The groundwater level is deep, at least 69 meters below the base of the lined landfill, and does not\n5 affect bearing soils.\n6 * The soil and rock types below the IDF are not soluble.\n7 * No mining or tunneling has been noted. If the groundwater level was lowered substantially and\n8 consolidation occurred in the aquifer, local site-specific subsidence would be negligible because\n9 of the depth of the groundwater table below the lined landfill.\n10 4.3.4.4.7 Sinkhole Potential\n11 Borings in and around the IDF have not identified any soluble materials in the foundation soils or\n12 underlying sediments. Consequently, the potential for any sinkhole development is negligible.\n13 4.3.5 Liner System, Liners\n14 The following sections discuss the individual components of the IDF liner systems.\n15 4.3.5.1 Synthetic Liners\n16 As described in Section 4.3.3, the synthetic liners act as an impermeable barrier for leachate migration\n17 (Figure 4.2). The synthetic liners consist of high-density polyethylene material that make the liners\n18 resistant to chemical deterioration. Section 4.3.3 describes the synthetic liner system in detail.\n19 4.3.5.2 Synthetic Liner Compatibility Data\n20 During detailed design of the lined landfill, the composition of the expected leachate was estimated.\n21 Expected leachate composition was based on known waste composition, process information, leachate\n22 from other operating lined landfills, and similar sources of data. Leachate constituents were compared to\n23 manufacturers' chemical compatibility data for synthetic liner components. In addition, the results of\n24 previous chemical compatibility testing and studies were evaluated against leachate composition.\n25 Information gained from this evaluation was used to select a liner that will be compatible with the\n26 expected leachate.\n27 Compatibility testing for leachate tank liner material is planned for construction. An immersion test\n28 program is included in the technical specifications for the tank liner (anticipated to be XR-5 material).\n29 The immersion-testing program will require the construction general contractor to submit tank liner\n30 samples to the design engineer for immersion testing as part of the submittal and certification process for\n31 the tank. Immersion testing will follow EPA 9090A (and ASTM) test protocols.\n32 During landfill operation, the compatibility of waste receipts with the liner will be ensured. The\n33 compatibility of the waste constituents with the liner material will be established by laboratory testing if\n34 determined to be necessary, based on waste type and concentrations. Such tests will follow EPA\n35 Method 9090A or other appropriate methods. Test results will be evaluated using statistical methods and\n36 accepted criteria (based on past projects and agency acceptance) for liner/leachate compatibility.\n37 4.3.5.3 Synthetic Liner Strength\n38 As discussed in Section 4.3.3.3, the liner system will experience loads from several sources. During the\n39 detailed design process for the landfill, the strength of liner system materials was evaluated against these\n40 loads. The analysis indicated an adequate factor of safety for liner system materials.\n41 Seams in geomembranes is a critical area; however, correct installation methods make the seams stronger\n42 than the surrounding material. Detailed installation and testing requirements will be included in the\n43 construction quality assurance plan (Section 4.3.7.3) to ensure that the liner is constructed properly. In\n44 addition, methods will be established to demonstrate adequate seam strength is achieved during\n45 installation.\nChapter 4.15\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Seaming requirements for the geotextiles and CDN: These materials were overlapped sufficiently to\n2 provide complete area coverage, and relatively light seams were used to hold the panels in position during\n3 construction, seam strength requirements for these materials will be negligible.\n4 4.3.5.4 Synthetic Liner Bedding\n5 The primary geomembrane liner is in contact with the GCL and geotextile cushion underlying the\n6 drainage gravel.\n7 The secondary geomembrane liner is in direct contact with the compacted admix layer. This type of\n8 subgrade is typical for flexible geomembrane liners.\n9 With respect to the drainage gravel and operations layers, the geomembranes are protected by overlying\n10 geotextile cushion or CDN layers. These geotextiles were designed to provide adequate protection during\n11 construction and operation to withstand the loads discussed in Section 4.3.3.3.\n12 4.3.5.5 Soil Liners\n13 The IDF landfill is lined with a minimum (0.9-meter thick) layer of compacted soil/bentonite mixture\n14 (admix) under the secondary geomembrane liner. This layer has an in-place hydraulic conductivity of\n15 less than 1 x 10' centimeter per second. The soil component of the admix is silty fine sand or similar\n16 material from areas near the IDF. Approximately 12 percent bentonite by dry weight was added to the\n17 fine soil to achieve sufficiently low hydraulic conductivity; however, the percent might vary.\n18 4.3.5.5.1 Material Testing Data\n19 Laboratory testing will be performed on soil liner materials to confirm input parameters for engineering\n20 analyses and for refining material and construction specifications.\n21 Before constructing the lined landfill, a full-scale test fill of the admix material will be conducted. The\n22 primary purpose of the test fill will be to verify that the specified soil density, moisture content, and\n23 hydraulic conductivity values will be achieved consistently using proposed compaction equipment and\n24 procedures. In-place density will be measured using both the nuclear gauge (ASTM D2922) and sand\n25 cone (ASTM D1556) methods. In-place hydraulic conductivity will be determined from a two-stage\n26 infiltration from a borehole (ASTM D6391). Admix hydraulic conductivity will be estimated from\n27 thin-wall tube samples (ASTM D1587) obtained from the test fill and tested in the laboratory (ASTM\n28 D5084). Details of the test fill are presented in the Construction Quality Assurance Plan (Appendix 4B).\n29 During construction, field density (e.g., ASTM D2922, D2167, and/or DI556) and moisture content\n30 (ASTM D2216) will be measured periodically. Thin-wall tube samples (ASTM D1587) will be taken at\n31 regular intervals and will be tested for hydraulic conductivity (ASTM D5084). Additional details of field-\n32 testing during construction will be presented in the Construction Quality Assurance Plan.\n33 Dispersion and piping in the admix are not considered likely because the hydraulic conductivity, and thus\n34 the flow velocity, will be very low, making it difficult to move the soil particles or otherwise disrupt the\n35 soil fabric. In addition, the admix will be well graded, so the component particles will tend to hold each\n36 other in place. Therefore, testing for these characteristics will not be necessary.\n37 4.3.5.5.2 Soil Liner Compatibility Data\n38 As discussed in Section 4.3.5.2, expected leachate composition was determined as part of detailed landfill\n39 design. The results of previous chemical compatibility testing and studies were evaluated against leachate\n40 composition to determine the effect of leachate on soil liner composition or hydraulic conductivity. The\n41 tests followed the procedures of ASTM D5084 (flexible wall parameter) and considered the effects of\n42 radiation on the soil liner materials.\n43 4.3.5.5.3 Soil Liner Thickness\n44 The IDF was designed to operate to minimize the leachate head over the liner systems.\nChapter 4.16\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Design of the primary liner system included an additional clay layer (the primary GCL layer, which was\n2 previously described in Section 4.3.3.1) underlying the primary HDPE geomembrane to further minimize\n3 liner leakage from the primary liner. Note that only a single geomembrane is required under WAC 173-\n4 303 for the primary liner.\n5 Calculations evaluated the effectiveness of the primary soil liner as a barrier to leachate. Leakage\n6 analyses were performed for the primary liner system using EPA's Hydrologic Evaluation of Landfill\n7 Performance (HELP) Model (Schroeder et al. 1997). Estimated leakage rates were compared to the\n8 Action Leakage Rate (ALR, which is defined in WAC 173-303-665[8] as \"the maximum design flow rate\n9 that the leak detection system ... can remove without the fluid head on the bottom liner exceeding\n10 1 foot\"), and were determined to be much lower than the ALR. This demonstrates the benefit of the GCL\n11 included in the primary bottom-lining system, which provides a composite lining system and minimizes\n12 actual leakage through the bottom primary lining system.\n13 Overall, the IDF is designed to actively convey and collect leachate from the liner areas of the facility to\n14 minimize leachate buildup over the liners. Leachate is conveyed to the LCRS and LDS sumps for active\n15 removal from the facility. In addition, the LCRS sump area has been designed with a 6-inch-deep sump\n16 trough where the LCRS pumps are positioned to minimize the area of the sump that has a permanent\n17 liquid level (below the pump intake/shutoff elevation). Both the LCRS and LDS sump pumps will be\n18 operated throughout the Active Life of the facility and into the post-closure period until leachate\n19 generation has essentially ceased. By actively removing leachate from the IDF, head buildup is\n20 minimized, which in turn minimizes leakage through both the primary and secondary liner systems.\n21 4.3.5.5.4 Soil Liner Strength\n22 The expected loads on the liner system are discussed in Section 4.3.3.3. Significant stresses in the soil\n23 liner that were considered include (1) stresses from the weight of the liner system, (2) stresses on the\n24 interface with the overlying materials, and (3) stresses during construction.\n25 Stresses will be present on the sideslopes from the weight of the operations layer and soil liner itself.\n26 Using material properties determined from laboratory testing, the stability of the soil liner was evaluated\n27 under both static and dynamic loading conditions. Standard methods of slope stability analysis were\n28 used. Interface strengths were found to provide adequate veneer stability for the liner system. Interface\n29 strength is the shear strength that occurs between layers of liner materials at their interface boundary, as\n30 established by ASTM test methods.\n31 The primary concern during construction will be bearing failure caused by the weight of overlying soil\n32 components of the liner system (e.g., drainage gravel on the floor) and the construction equipment used to\n33 spread these materials. Strength parameters developed from laboratory testing and standard analytical\n34 methods were again used to determine that adequate stability and bearing capacity exist for the IDF liner\n35 system.\n36 4.3.5.5.5 Engineering Report\n37 An engineering report was prepared for the lined landfill as part of the definitive design document\n38 package. The report describes the design of the liner system and includes supporting calculations.\n39 The critical systems IDF Design Report is provided in Appendix 4A. The final IDF design report was\n40 prepared under the supervision of a professional engineer registered in Washington State.\n41 4.3.6 Liner System, Leachate Collection and Removal System\n42 The purpose of the leachate collection and removal system is to provide sufficient hydraulic conductivity\n43 and storage volume to collect, retain, and dispose of, in a timely manner, fluids falling on or moving\n44 through the waste. The primary leachate collection and removal system provides the preferential path\n45 along which the leachate flows into the primary sump. The secondary leachate collection and removal\n46 system (also called the leak detection system) is located between the primary and secondary\n47 geomembranes. The secondary leachate collection and removal system provides the preferential path\n48 along which any fluids leaking through the primary liner system flow to the secondary sump.\nChapter 4.17\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The collected leachate will be pumped to a leachate collection tank, screened and/or sampled, and\n2 transferred to a permitted treatment and disposal unit.\n3 4.3.6.1 System Operation and Design\n4 The lined landfill operates in a way that ensures the bottom liner is maintained as dry as possible, and the\n5 head on the top liner does not exceed 30.5 centimeters measured above the flat 50-foot-by-50-foot LCRS\n6 sump HDPE liner. In extreme conditions (i.e., in excess of a 25-year storm event), the head on the top\n7 liner could exceed 30.5 centimeters for short durations. The operating methodology, described in the\n8 following paragraphs, ensures that liquids on the bottom liner are removed continuously before liquids\n9 could accumulate and exceed 30.5 centimeters for the design storm event.\n10 Both leachate collection systems operate either manually or automatically. When operated automatically,\n11 liquid level sensors will cycle the pumps on and off, in response to rising and falling leachate levels. The\n12 leakage rate through the top liner will be calculated to demonstrate that the leakage rate is less than the\n13 'action leakage rate'. Data to support the leakage rate calculations will be obtained either from the flow\n14 totalizer in the secondary leachate collection pump discharge line or from the liquid level gauges.\n15 Collected leachate from the secondary leachate collection system is pumped to the leachate collection\n16 tank.\n17 The design of the primary and secondary leachate collection systems is described in Section 4.3.3.1.\n18 System geometry was completed and material specifications were developed during the detailed design\n19 process. The leachate collection and removal system design will comply with WAC 173-303\n20 requirements and applicable guidance.\n21 Each sump has a thick layer of gravel designed to provide high hydraulic conductivity and storage\n22 capacity. Leachate is removed from the sumps by a pump installed in sideslope riser pipes. Pressure\n23 transducers monitor leachate level in the sumps and provide appropriate signals to the pump control\n24 system. All pumps and transducers are removable for maintenance, calibration, and related activities.\n25 4.3.6.1.1 Primary System\n26 The base of the leachate collection and removal system is defined by the primary geomembrane. On the\n27 floor of the lined landfill, the primary geomembrane is overlain by geotextile cushion, and the granular\n28 drainage layer. The granular drainage layer drains to the primary sump and a perforated pipe is located\n29 along the centerline of the cell to increase flow capacity to the primary sump. Geotextile layers at the top\n30 of the leachate collection and removal system prevent migration of fine soil particles into the gravel or\n31 geonet, thus prevent clogging. On the sideslopes, a CDN layer is over the geomembrane. The CDN\n32 includes bonded geotextiles on both sides of a geonet that increase the interface shear strength. Because\n33 of construction difficulties in placing a 30.5-cm thick gravel layer on 3:1 sideslopes, no drainage gravel\n34 was placed on the sideslopes.\n35 The leachate collection and removal system is covered by the operations layer. The layer is a minimum\n36 0.9-meter thick, and provides protection for the underlying liner and drainage materials. The operations\n37 layer covers both the landfill floor and the sideslopes.\n38 The leachate collection and removal system was designed to accommodate the 25-year, 24-hour storm, as\n39 required by WAC regulations. However, the EPA recognizes the need to store temporarily leachate from\n40 such rare events (EPA 1985). Should a storm event that exceeds the 25-year, 24-hour storm event occur,\n41 the leachate collection and removal system sump was designed to store temporarily leachate at a depth\n42 greater than 30.5 centimeters, as opposed to the alternative of constructing an excessively large leachate\n43 collection tank.\n44 The leachate collection and removal system sump is equipped with two sump pumps. One pump is a high\n45 capacity pump capable of rapid removal of large volumes of leachate, and is suitable for the transfer of\n46 batch quantities of leachate, and can handle the larger volumes of leachate anticipated from the 25-year,\n47 24-hour storm event. The other pump is a low-capacity submersible pump located in the base of the\n48 sump. The sump pumps are located in a sump trough.\nChapter 4.18\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The sump trough was designed to contain the leachate below the intake of these pumps, within the\n2 smallest possible area, to minimize the residual leachate volume after each pumping cycle. The pumps\n3 are fabricated from stainless steel or other corrosion resistant material.\n4 4.3.6.1.2 Leak Detection System\n5 The base of the LDS is formed by the secondary geomembrane. The leak detection system is similar to\n6 the LCRS, except that the perforated collection pipe is not included. The perforated pipe is not be needed\n7 because high flow capacity is not required for the low leachate volumes.\n8 The LDS drains to the LDS sump, which is located immediately below the LCRS sump. Because of the\n9 low volumes, the LDS is equipped with only one low-capacity submersible pump to meet\n10 WAC 173-303-665(8)(a).\n11 4.3.6.1.3 Response Action Plan\n12 In compliance with regulatory requirements, a response action plan (Appendix 4C) was prepared for the\n13 lined landfill. In accordance with EPA guidance, the action leakage rate was calculated as \"the maximum\n14 design flow rate that the leak detection system can remove without the fluid head on the bottom liner\n15 exceeding 30.5 centimeters\" (EPA 1992). If the action leakage rate were exceeded, DOE will do the\n16 following:\n17 * Notify the appropriate regulatory authority in writing of the exceedence within 7 days of the\n18 determination.\n19 * Submit a preliminary written assessment to the appropriate regulatory authority within 14 days of\n20 the determination, on the amount of liquids, likely sources of liquids, possible location, size,\n21 cause of any leaks, and short-term actions taken and planned.\n22 * Determine to the extent practicable the location, size, and cause of any leak.\n23 * Determine whether waste receipt should cease or be curtailed, whether any waste should be\n24 removed from the unit for inspection, repairs, or controls, and whether the unit should be closed.\n25 * Determine any other short-term and/or long-term actions to be taken to mitigate or stop any leaks.\n26 * Within 30 days after the notification that the action leakage rate has been exceeded, submit to the\n27 appropriate regulatory authority the results of the analyses specified in the following paragraphs,\n28 the results of actions taken, and actions planned. Monthly thereafter, as long as the flow rate in\n29 the leak detection system exceeds the action leakage rate, DOE will submit to the appropriate\n30 regulatory authority, a report summarizing the results of any remedial actions taken and actions\n31 planned.\n32 The leachate will be analyzed for RCRA constituents as appropriate. A procedure will be in place to\n33 address details of analysis (i.e., analyses, constituents, test methods, etc.). If the analytical results on\n34 leakage fluids indicate that these constituents are present, and if the constituents can be traced to a\n35 particular type of waste placed in a known area of the lined landfill, it might be possible to estimate the\n36 location of the leak. In addition, waste packages might not undergo enough deterioration during the\n37 active life of the landfill to permit escape of the contents; the leachate might be clean or the composition\n38 too general to show a specific source location.\n39 If the source location cannot be identified, large-scale removal of the waste and operations layer to find\n40 and repair the leaking area of the liner would be one option for remediation. However, this risks\n41 damaging the liner. In addition, waste would have to be handled, stored, and replaced in the landfill.\n42 Backfill would need to be removed from around any waste packages to accomplish this. If the waste\n43 packages were damaged during this process, the risk of accidental release might be high. For these\n44 reasons, large-scale removal of waste and liner system materials will not be a desirable option and will\n45 not be implemented except as a last resort.\nChapter 4.19\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The preferred alternative will depend on factors such as the amount of waste already in the landfill, the\n2 rate of waste receipt, the chemistry of the leachate (i.e., is it clean?), the availability of other disposal\n3 units, and similar considerations. Therefore, no single approach will be selected at this time. If\n4 necessary, an interim solution could be implemented while the evaluation and permanent remediation\n5 were performed. Examples of potential approaches include the following.\n6 * The surface of the waste could be graded to direct run-off into a shallow pond. The surface\n7 would be covered with the low-hydraulic conductivity layer (geomembrane). Precipitation would\n8 be pumped or evaporated from the pond and would not infiltrate the waste already in the lined\n9 landfill. Waste would be placed only during periods of dry weather, and stored at other onsite\n10 TSD units at other times. This type of approach also could be used to reduce leakage\n11 immediately after the action leakage rate was exceeded, while other remediation options were\n12 evaluated.\n13 * Partial construction of the final closure cover could begin earlier than planned. This would\n14 reduce infiltration into the lined landfill, and possibly reduce the leakage rate if the cover were\n15 constructed over the failed area.\n16 * A layer of low-hydraulic conductivity soil could be placed over the existing waste, perhaps in\n17 conjunction with a geomembrane, to create a second 'primary' liner higher in the lined landfill.\n18 This new liner would intercept precipitation and allow its removal.\n19 * A rigid-frame or air-supported structure could be constructed over the landfill to ensure that no\n20 infiltration occurs. Although costly, this approach could be less expensive than constructing a\n21 new landfill.\n22 In general, the selected remediation efforts will be progressive. Those remediation methods that are\n23 judged the least difficult and the most cost effective will be used first. If these efforts are not effective,\n24 more difficult or expensive options would be used.\n25 4.3.6.2 Equivalent Capacity\n26 The CDN drainage layers used will be available commercially and will have equivalent flow capacity to a\n27 30.5-centimeters layer of granular drainage material with a hydraulic conductivity of 1 x 10-2 centimeter\n28 per second.\n29 4.3.6.3 Grading and Drainage\n30 In accordance with EPA guidance, all areas of the lined landfill floor (except the sump bottoms) are\n31 graded at a slope of at least 2 percent towards the centerline of each cell. The centerline of each cell has a\n32 1 percent slope lengthwise towards the sump, to facilitate drainage and avoid ponding on the liners.\n33 Grading tolerances have been established to ensure proper slope is maintained.\n34 4.3.6.4 Maximum Leachate Head\n35 The maximum head on the primary liner is less than 30.5 centimeters, except for rare storm events as\n36 discussed in Section 4.3.6.1 and the LCRS sump trough. The sump was sized and designed to provide\n37 adequate surge storage to prevent leachate build up on the primary liner.\n38 4.3.6.5 System Compatibility\n39 The primary and secondary leachate collection and removal systems is composed of inert geologic\n40 materials (sand and gravel), high-density polyethylene, and other geosynthetic materials such as\n41 polypropylene. As described in Section 4.3.5.2, the geosynthetics were evaluated for compatibility with\n42 the expected leachate. To ensure that the geosynthetics used in the lined landfill are similar chemically to\n43 those evaluated, manufacturers will be required to submit quality control certificates and other\n44 manufacturing information on all materials.\n45\nChapter 4.20\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Before a new waste constituent, not previously analyzed (based on a dangerous waste number), is allowed\n2 in the lined landfill, the waste constituent will be evaluated for compatibility with the liner (e.g., identified\n3 in 9090A test results or other appropriate testing methods, etc.). Other materials could contact the\n4 leachate, for example:\n5 * HDPE and Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) piping will be used.\n6 * Polyvinyl chloride and other plastics in miscellaneous uses.\n7 * Leachate tank will use a chemically resistant flexible geomembrane liner system.\n8 Compatibility of these materials with the expected leachate was considered in the landfill liner system\n9 design. Compatibility of these materials will be of lesser concern, because items that consist of these\n10 materials will be located entirely within the containment area. Failure of these items would not result in a\n11 dangerous waste release, and the materials would be replaced or repaired.\n12 4.3.6.6 System Strength\n13 Stability of drainage layer, strength of piping, and prevention of clogging are discussed in the following\n14 sections.\n15 4.3.6.6.1 Stability of Drainage Layers\n16 As described in Sections 4.3.3.3 and 4.3.5.3, the stability of the liners and leachate collection and removal\n17 systems on the sideslopes was evaluated as part of detailed design (Appendix 4A). To provide\n18 sufficiently high shear strengths at the interfaces between geosynthetic components, textured\n19 geomembranes and thermally bonded CDNs are used.\n20 Bearing capacity of the drainage and sump gravels is expected to be adequate, based on typical strength\n21 values for granular materials.\n22 The transmissivity of the drainage layers under the combined load of the waste and cover was addressed\n23 in the design and will be adequate to support leachate removal.\n24 4.3.6.6.2 Strength of Piping\n25 The drainpipes in the primary drainage and sump gravel and sideslope riser pipes are high-density\n26 polyethylene pipe. During detailed design, the required wall thickness of the pipe was determined\n27 according to the manufacturer's recommendations and standard analytical methods used by the piping\n28 industry (Appendix 4A). In these analyses, the ultimate load (derived from the estimated weight of the\n29 waste and cover) was used, the allowable deflections were limited to 5 percent, and conservative values\n30 for soil modulus and lateral confinement were assumed.\n31 4.3.6.7 Prevention of Clogging\n32 The geotextiles that separate the drainage layers from adjacent soil layers was selected based on the\n33 ability of the geotextiles to retain the soil and to prevent the soil from entering the leachate collection and\n34 removal systems. In addition, the amount of fine material in the drainage and sump gravels was limited\n35 by specification to less than a few percent, and is not expected to cause clogging problems (Appendix\n36 4A). Because the waste disposed in the lined landfill will be required to satisfy LDR\n37 (RCW 70.105.050(2), WAC 173-303-140, and 40 CFR 268), the amount of organic material is minimal,\n38 and consequently biologic clogging will not be a problem.\n39 4.3.7 Liner System, Construction and Maintenance\n40 Details relating to the liner system construction and maintenance are discussed in the following sections.\n41 4.3.7.1 Material Specifications\n42 Material specifications are provided in the following sections for each of the materials used in the liner\n43 system.\nChapter 4.21\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3.7.1.1 Synthetic Liners\n2 As described in Section 4.3.3.1, both the primary and secondary geomembrane liners consist of\n3 high-density polyethylene. As described in Section 4.3.3.1.4, the primary barrier also contains a\n4 geosynthetic clay liner placed on the floor area only. Detailed specifications were prepared for the lined\n5 landfill as part of the design process.\n6 4.3.7.1.2 Soil Liners\n7 As described in Section 4.3.3.1, the soil liner consists of imported bentonite (expansive clay) blended\n8 with fine soil deposits on or next to the IDF. The fine soil was free of roots, woody vegetation, rocks\n9 greater than 2.54 centimeter in diameter, and other deleterious material. The bentonite content is\n10 dependent on the characteristics of the fine soil. Mixing was performed under carefully controlled\n11 conditions in a pugmill or other approved alternatives. The admix was placed and compacted to achieve\n12 an in-place hydraulic conductivity of I x 10-7 centimeter per second or less. The final surface of the soil\n13 liner was rolled smooth before placing the overlying geomembrane. Additional specifications were\n14 prepared for the lined landfill as part of the design process.\n15 4.3.7.1.3 Leachate Collection and Removal System\n16 Drainage and sump gravel consisted of hard, durable, rounded to subrounded material. The gravel was\n17 washed and the amount of fine material (i.e., passing the number 200 sieve) was limited to a few percent.\n18 The hydraulic conductivity of the gravel is I x 102 centimeter per second or greater. Additional\n19 specifications were prepared as part of the design process.\n20 For geotextiles and geonets, the composition, thickness, transmissivity, unit weight, apparent opening\n21 size, strength, and other properties were determined during detailed design based on results of engineering\n22 analyses, experience, and industry standard approaches.\n23 4.3.7.2 Construction Specifications\n24 Construction requirements for major components of the lined landfill are summarized in the following\n25 sections.\n26 4.3.7.2.1 Liner System Foundation\n27 The excavated subgrade surfaces was moisture conditioned and compacted as required to achieve the\n28 specified compaction before placing the admix layer.\n29 4.3.7.2.2 Soil Liners\n30 The soil and bentonite was blended thoroughly and moisture conditioned so that the admix is uniform and\n31 homogeneous throughout. The admix layer was placed in loose lifts and compacted so that the\n32 compacted lift meets the requirements of the Construction Quality Assurance Plan. Each new lift of\n33 admix was kneaded into the previously placed lift. The methods for admix preparation, type of\n34 compaction equipment, number of passes, and other details of the placement process was determined by\n35 constructing a test fill section before placing admix in the lined landfill.\n36 4.3.7.2.3 Synthetic Liners\n37 To protect the overlying geomembranes, the admix surface is smooth and free of deleterious material. In\n38 all cases, the high-density polyethylene liner was deployed with the length of the roll parallel to the slope.\n39 Adjacent panels were overlapped and thermally seamed using fusion or extrusion methods. Seams were\n40 inspected continuously using air pressure tests. A vacuum box was used in areas where air pressure tests\n41 cannot be used (e.g., extrusion weld areas). Destructive seam tests (ASTM D4437) (peel and adhesion)\n42 were performed on samples taken at regular intervals. Placing the overlying geosynthetic layers when\n43 practicable will protect the geomembranes.\nChapter 4.22\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3.7.2.4 Leachate Collection and Removal Systems\n2 Drainage and sump gravel was placed and spread carefully over the underlying geosynthetics using\n3 suitable equipment to prevent damage. Hauling and placing equipment will operate on a minimum\n4 thickness of soil above any geosynthetic layer to avoid damage. Geosynthetic layers in the leachate\n5 collection and removal system were deployed, overlapped, and joined (e.g., tying for geonets, sewing for\n6 geotextiles) according to standard industry practice and the manufacturers' recommendations. Drainage\n7 and riser pipes were installed in the landfill. Pipes were bedded carefully and the landfill was backfilled\n8 to provide adequate lateral support. Pumps and other mechanical components are installed according to\n9 manufacturers' recommendations.\n10 4.3.7.3 Construction Quality Control Program\n11 A construction quality assurance plan (Appendix 4B) will be used during lined landfill construction and\n12 establishes in detail the following in accordance with WAC 173-303-335:\n13 Program must include observations, test, and measurements to ensure:\n14 * Proper construction of all components of the liners, leachate collection and removal system.\n15 * Conformity of all materials used in the design.\n16 4.3.7.4 Maintenance Procedures for Leachate Collection and Removal Systems\n17 The accessible components of the leachate collection and removal system will be maintained according to\n18 preventive maintenance methods. These methods will require periodic testing to prove that the\n19 equipment, controls, and instrumentation are functional and are calibrated properly. Testing intervals will\n20 be derived from applicable regulations and manufacturer's recommendations. All pumps and motors will\n21 be started or bumped monthly or at intervals suggested by the manufacturer, first, to demonstrate that the\n22 pumps and motors are functional and second, to move the bearing(s) so that the bearing surfaces do not\n23 seize or become distorted. Instruments will be calibrated annually or at intervals suggested by the\n24 manufacturer. When applicable, the preventive maintenance methods will include calibration\n25 instructions. The following instruments will require annual calibration:\n26 * LCRS sump level indicator\n27 * LDS sump level indicator\n28 Other instrumentation inside the leachate handling and storage facilities will also require routine\n29 maintenance.\n30 4.3.7.5 Liner Repairs during Operations\n31 Because of the 0.9-meter-thick operations layer, damage to the liner system is not expected. If damage\n32 did occur, the operations layer could be removed laterally as far as required. Underlying geosynthetic and\n33 gravel layers will be removed until an undamaged layer is encountered. The damaged layers will be\n34 repaired and replaced from the lowest layer upwards using similar methods to those employed during\n35 construction. Most repairs to the geomembranes will be performed using a patch, which will be placed,\n36 welded, and tested by construction quality assurance personnel.\n37 4.3.8 Run-On and Runoff Control Systems\n38 Because of the sandy soils, small drainage area, and arid climate at the IDF, stormwater run-on and\n39 run-off will not be expected to require major engineered structures. Interceptor and drainage ditches will\n40 be adequate for run-on and run-off control. The 25-year, 24-hour precipitation event was the design\n41 storm used to size the lined landfill systems. Beyond this, surface water evaluation is highly site-specific,\n42 and appropriate analyses were performed as part of detailed design for the lined landfill.\nChapter 4.23\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3.8.1 Run-on Control System\n2 Run-on will be controlled by drainage ditches or berms around the perimeter of the lined landfill. Any\n3 overland flow approaching the landfill will be intercepted by the ditches or berms and will be conveyed to\n4 existing drainage systems or suitable discharge points. All the drainage ditches or berms were designed\n5 to handle the peak 25-year flow from the potential drainage area. By using low channel slopes, design\n6 flow velocities in the ditches will be maintained below established limits for sand channels.\n7 Between the landfill crest and the perimeter road, the area will be graded to provide drainage toward the\n8 perimeter road. The perimeter road will be sloped outward, at a grade of approximately 2 percent, to\n9 provide drainage away from the landfill. On the outside of the perimeter road, drainage ditches will be\n10 excavated to provide drainage away from the landfill.\n11 4.3.8.1.1 Design and Performance\n12 Design and performance details were determined for the landfill as part of the detailed design process.\n13 4.3.8.1.2 Calculation of Peak Flow\n14 Computation of design discharge for the drainage ditches or berms was performed using standard\n15 analytical methods, such as the Rational Method or the computer program HEC- I (USACE 1981). The\n16 25-year, 24-hour precipitation depth is 4.0 centimeters, based on precipitation data recorded from 1947 to\n17 1969 (PNL-4622). The tributary area for each section of ditch or berm was based on local topography.\n18 4.3.8.2 Runoff Control System\n19 There will be no run-off from the lined landfill because the landfill will be constructed below grade. Any\n20 precipitation falling on the landfill will be removed by either evapotranspiration or the leachate collection\n21 and removal systems. Therefore, a run-off control system will not be needed.\n22 4.3.8.3 Construction\n23 The drainage ditches or berms around the lined landfill were constructed with conventional earthmoving\n24 equipment such as graders and small dozers.\n25 4.3.8.4 Maintenance\n26 The drainage ditches or berms require periodic maintenance to ensure proper performance. The most\n27 frequent maintenance activity, beyond periodic inspection, will be cleaning the ditches or berms to\n28 remove obstructions caused by windblown soil and vegetation (e.g., tumbleweeds). After rare storm\n29 events, regrading of the ditch bottom or repair of the berm might be required to repair erosion damage.\n30 This is expected to occur infrequently; however, inspections will be conducted after 25-year storm events\n31 or at least annually.\n32 4.3.9 Control of Wind Dispersal\n33 The IDF will use varied methods to prevent wind dispersal of mixed waste and backfill materials,\n34 depending on the waste form. Methods to prevent wind dispersal include containerizing, stabilizing,\n35 grouting, spray fixitants, and backfill. In other instances, the operating contractor implements a wind\n36 speed restriction during handling, and immediately backfills the waste to prevent wind dispersal.\n37 4.3.10 Liquids in Landfills\n38 Free liquids will not be accepted except as allowed by Chapter 3.0, Section 1.2. Waste received at the\n39 IDF must comply with waste acceptance requirements.\n40 4.3.11 Containerized Waste\n41 Containerized waste received in the IDF lined landfill will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent void\n42 space. Several inert materials (diatomaceous earth, sand, lava rock) will be used as acceptable void space\n43 fillers for waste that does not fill the container.\nChapter 4.24\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nFigure 4.1.

The IDF is essential in meeting the overall U.S.\n6 Department of Energy, Office of River Protection (ORP) mission to store, retrieve, treat, and dispose of\n7 the highly radioactive Hanford tank waste in an environmentally sound, safe, and cost-effective manner.\n8 The IDF will also provide capacity for disposal of mixed low-level waste (MLLW) and low-level (LLW)\n9 from the DBVS. The detailed design for the IDF Phase I Critical Systems landfill will finalize the design\n10 process for the:\n11 * Landfill liner system\n12 * Leachate removal system\n13 * Leak detection system (LDS)\n14 The IDF detailed design also involves completing all design work required for an operable landfill and\n15 supporting the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) Part B permitting for the IDF.\n16 This Phase I Critical Systems Design Report (the Design Report) provides documentation of engineering\n17 calculations, criteria, and information that have been developed as part of the IDF detailed design for\n18 Phase I. Specifically, the Design Report documents the following important design information:\n19 * Identifies key design requirements for the project (Section 2).\n20 * Summarizes studies on site conditions and investigations that have been used in the development\n21 of detailed design parameters for the critical systems (Sections 3 and 4).\n22 * Presents detailed engineering analysis performed in the development of the Phase I Critical\n23 Systems design and updated during construction implementation (Section 5).\n24 * Provides system component descriptions, references important construction quality assurance\n25 (QA) requirements, and describes important interfaces with non-critical systems (Section 6).\n26 * Describes operating provisions that have influenced the development of the design including\n27 waste placement requirements, operational interfaces with other Hanford facilities, and leakage\n28 response action plan requirements (Section 7).\n29 1.2 Scope\n30 1.2.1 General\n31 CH2M HILL, Inc. (Affiliate) is responsible for production of a cost-effective final design and to produce\n32 critical systems detailed design documents and construction specifications to facilitate RCRA permit\n33 approval of the IDF. The IDF technical requirements are found in the following documents:\n34 * Immobilized Low-Activity Waste (ILAW) Project Definition Criteria, Revision I (RPP-7898)\n35 * System Specifications for ILAW Disposal, Revision 3 (RPP-7307)\n36 * Hanford Environmental Management Specification (DOE/RL-97-55)\n37 Design products are to be prepared in compliance with the technical requirements, as well as with other\n38 specific procedures that are dictated by CH2M HILL Hanford Group, Inc. (CH2M HILL) requirements\n39 and outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW), Integrated Disposal Facility Detailed Design Support\n40 (Rev. 2, 2003), described in more detail under Section 2 of this Design Report. The overall design work\n41 includes reports, schedules, estimates, and other special services as specified in the SOW. As part of the\n42 design effort, the Affiliate will perform the following global tasks:\nAppendix 4A. 1.15\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Develop a conceptual layout and preliminary design drawings for the IDF. The IDF preliminary\n2 layout will depict a single expandable landfill system, with capability for segregation of RCRA\n3 regulated and non-regulated waste placement and segregated leachate management systems.\n4 * Develop a detailed design that meets the requirements of the ILAW Project Definition Criteria\n5 and the ILAW System Specification.\n6 * Develop the construction specifications for the detailed design.\n7 * Ensure that there is full technical integration between all detailed design reports prepared for the\n8 detailed design of the IDF.\n9 * Perform the design activities in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements.\n10 The design will implement the safety and health protection requirements imposed on the design by the\n11 SOW and the technical baseline criteria documents, and will comply with all applicable regulatory\n12 requirements for the project. It is important to note that although the design is for identified critical\n13 systems of the Phase I IDF, a preliminary safety evaluation was performed for the W-520 Project that\n14 identified no safety class items, including criticality safety (Conceptual Design Report for ILA WFacility,\n15 CH2M HILL, May 2001).\n16 The timely completion of the critical system detail design of the IDF, in compliance with the RCRA\n17 permit approval process (Washington Administrative Code [WAC] 173-303-665 and 173-303-806[4][h]),\n18 is a critical component of the SOW. Drawings, construction specifications, and reports needed to obtain\n19 U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) certification and Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology)\n20 approval of the IDF RCRA Part B permit is the overall goal of the project. The detailed design for the\n21 initial Phase I disposal landfill and the critical systems design include the liner system, the leachate\n22 collection system, and the LDS.

These matrices are presented in the Design Report in Appendix A.\n3 1.3 Authorization\n4 After careful consideration and evaluation, CH2M HILL elected to self-perform the IDF Phase I Critical\n5 Systems design. As such, the design is being performed as an inter-company work assignment by the\n6 Affiliate under the direction of CH2M HILL. CH2M HILL was authorized to self-perform the work by\n7 the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of River Protection (ORP), in a letter dated December 9, 2002.\n8 CH2M HILL's Prime Contract Number with the ORP is DE-ACO6-99RL 14047. The inter-company\n9 work assignment is Contract 12317, Release 22, dated November 7, 2002.\n10 1.4 General Facility Description\n11 The IDF will consist of an expandable lined landfill located in the 200 East area on the Hanford Facility\n12 (HF). The landfill will be divided lengthwise into two distinct cells, one for disposal of low-level waste\n13 (LLW) and the other for disposal of mixed waste. The mission of the IDF will include the following\n14 functions:\n15 * Provide an approved disposal facility for the permanent, environmentally safe disposition of\n16 ILAW packages that meets the environmental requirements and is approved by the DOE and\n17 Ecology.\n18 * Receive ILAW from River Protection Project (RPP) tank operations and dispose this waste\n19 onsite. Receive waste from the DBVS and dispose this waste onsite.\n20 * A more detailed discussion of waste types and the necessary storage volumes for these wastes is\n21 provided in Sections 5 and 6, respectively.\n22 * The IDF will be constructed on 25 hectares of vacant land southwest of the Plutonium Uranium\n23 Extraction Facility (PUREX) Plant in the 200 East Area. The IDF will consist of a lined landfill\n24 that will be constructed in several phases. The landfill will be segregated into a RCRA permitted\n25 cell and a non-RCRA permitted cell. The scope of this permit is limited to the western cell of the\n26 landfill where the RCRA waste will be stored and disposed. The landfill is designed to\n27 accommodate four layers of vitrified LAW waste containers separated vertically by 0.9-meters of\n28 soil.\n29 * This initial construction will start at the northern edge and the size is approximately 223 meters\n30 East/West by 233 meters North/South by 14 meters deep. At this initial size, IDF disposal\n31 capacity is 82,000 cubic meters of waste. Subsequent construction phase(s) will require a\n32 modification to the Part B Permit to be constructed after waste placement has progressed in the\n33 landfill to the point that additional disposal capacity is needed. This approach minimizes the\n34 open area susceptible to collection of rainwater and subsequent leachate\n35 * The landfill is currently estimated at full build out to be up to 446 meters wide by 555 meters in\n36 length by up to 14 meters deep. The RCRA regulated portion of the landfill would be half of that\n37 at approximately 223 meters wide by 555 meters long by up to 14 meters deep providing a waste\n38 disposal capacity of up to 450,000 cubic meters.\n39 * Both cells will have a RCRA C-compliant liner system that consists of an upper primary liner\n40 overlying a lower secondary liner. The upper liner will consist of a composite geomembrane\n41 liner and geosynthetic clay liner system on the bottom area, and a single geomembrane on the\n42 side slope. The secondary liner will consist of a composite geomembrane, overlying a\n43 3-foot-thick soil admix liner. A LCRS and a LDS will overly the primary and secondary liner\n44 system, respectively. A Secondary Leak Detection System (SLDS) will be located below the clay\n45 liner, beneath the LDS sump.\n46 * The IDF also will include a less than 90-day accumulation area of leachate for storage in two\n47 tanks, one per landfill half. The leachate storage tanks will be located at the north end, in close\n48 proximity to the lined landfill.\nAppendix 4A. 1.18\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Each tank will be protected by secondary containment (double-lined tanks). Leak detection will\n2 be provided by monitoring of the secondary containment. The collected leachate will be stored\n3 and sampled before transfer to an onsite Treatment Storage and Disposal (TSD) unit or offsite\n4 TSD facility. The less than 90-day storage leachate collection tank will be operated in\n5 accordance with the generator provisions of WAC 173-303-200 and WAC 173-303-640, as\n6 referenced by WAC 173-303-200. The overall side development plan is shown in Figure 1-2.\n7 * The landfill will be constructed in several phases. Starting at the northern edge, approximately\n8 one-third of the total length of the landfill will be constructed in Phase I. This will include the\n9 leachate collection system and 90-day accumulation tanks. The subsequent phases will be\n10 constructed after waste has been placed in the landfill and additional disposal capacity is needed.\n11 This approach will minimize the amount of open area susceptible to collection of rainwater and\n12 subsequent leachate.\n13 * Before disposal, all waste will meet land disposal restriction requirements Revised Code of\n14 Washington 70.105.050(2), WAC 173-303-140, and 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 268,\n15 incorporated by reference in WAC 173-303-1401.\n16 * Future landfill development and configuration within the IDF will be subject to change as\n17 disposal techniques improve or as waste management needs dictate. Additional IDF landfill\n18 development beyond the 62 acres will be subject to an approved permit modification, in\n19 accordance with the HF RCRA Permit (Ecology, 2001).\n20 * Public access to the IDF will be restricted. Figure 1-3 depicts the normal transportation routes\n21 within the 200 East Area. Trucks typically will be used to transport waste to the IDF and will\n22 range in size from heavy-duty pickups to tractor-trailer rigs, depending on the size and weight of\n23 the load. In some cases, special equipment (such as transporters) will be used for unusual or\n24 unique loads. When special equipment is used, a prior evaluation will ensure that the equipment\n25 does not damage the roadways.\n26 * Approximately 60 personnel will traverse this roadway, in personal vehicles in three shifts per\n27 24 hours per week.\nAppendix 4A. 1.19\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Figure 1-1.

The IDF Phase I Critical Systems Design has been performed in\n5 compliance with all applicable design requirements, defined in Sections 2.1 through 2.7, and these\n6 requirements are:\n7 * Washington State Dangerous Waste Regulations (WAC 173-303)\n8 * System Specification for Immobilized Low-Activity Waste Disposal System, Revision 3\n9 (RPP-7307)\n10 * ILAW Project Definition Criteria for Integrated Disposal Facility, Revision 1 (RPP-7898)\n11 * Hanford Site Environmental Management Specification, Revision 2 (DOE/RL-97-55)\n12 * Design Loads for Tank Farm Facilities (TFC-ENG-STD-06, REV A)\n13 * Technical baseline documents listed in Section 3.1 of the SOW\n14 * Applicable national codes and standards\n15 2.1 Washington State Dangerous Waste Regulations\n16 The Washington State Dangerous Waste Regulations (WAC 173-303) implement Subtitle C of Public\n17 Law 94-580, the RCRA in the State of Washington. By conforming to the requirements of\n18 WAC 173-303, the design of the IDF Phase I Critical Systems also complies with the federal hazardous\n19 waste requirements contained in 40 CFR 264, Standards for Owners and Operators ofHazardous Waste\n20 Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities. Appendix A. I provides a compliance matrix of where the\n21 applicable WAC 173-303 requirements are addressed in the IDF Phase I Critical Systems detailed design\n22 documents, or are addressed in documentation developed as a result of facility construction.\n23 2.2 System Specification\n24 The System Specification for Immobilized Low-Activity Waste Disposal System, Revision 3 (RPP-7307)\n25 contains the Level 1 system requirements for the Immobilized Low-Activity Waste Disposal System, of\n26 which the IDF is a part. Appendix A.2 provides a compliance matrix of where the applicable Level 1\n27 system requirements are addressed in the IDF Phase I Critical Systems detailed design documents, or are\n28 addressed in documentation developed as a result of facility construction.\n29 2.3 Project Definition Criteria\n30 The ILAWProject Definition Criteria for Integrated Disposal Facility, Revision I (RPP-7898) contains\n31 the design criteria for the IDF, including requirements flow-down from RPP-7303, System Specification\n32 for ILAWDisposal System, and DOE/RL-97-55, Hanford Site Environmental Management Specification.\n33 Appendix A.3 provides a compliance matrix of where the applicable design criteria are addressed in the\n34 IDF Phase I Critical Systems detailed design documents, or are addressed in documentation developed as\n35 a result of facility construction.\n36 2.4 Hanford Site Environmental Management Specification\n37 The Hanford Site Environmental Management Specification (site specification), Revision 2\n38 (DOE/RL-97-55) documents the top-level mission technical requirements for work involved in the\n39 Richland Operations Office, Hanford Site cleanup and infrastructure activities, under the responsibility of\n40 the DOE Office of Environmental Management. It also provides the basis for all contract technical\n41 requirements. Section 3.3.2, 200 Area Materials and Waste Management of the site specification contains\n42 the requirements for receiving and onsite disposal of ILAW from RPP tank operations. The documents,\n43 orders, and laws referenced in the site specification represent only the most salient sources of\n44 requirements. As such, the site specification is assumed to have no significant measurable requirements\n45 that would directly affect the IDF Phase I Critical Systems design.\nAppendix 4A.1.21\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 2.5 Design Loads for Tank Farm Facilities\n2 The Design Loads for Tank Farm Facilities (TFC-ENG-STD-06, REV A) defines the design\n3 requirements for systems, structures, and components (SSCs), and provides the minimum criteria for\n4 structural design and evaluation of SSCs. The standard establishes structural design loads and acceptance\n5 criteria for use in designing new SSCs. Figure 1 of this standard indicates that for new SSCs, structures\n6 and anchorage of systems and components are to be designed per DOE-STD-1020-02 and Section 3.0 of\n7 this standard. These were used for the design of the IDF Critical Systems facilities. The IDF Critical\n8 Systems facilities were defined by CH2M HILL as being Performance Category (PC)-1. The PC-i\n9 requirements in this standard were used in the structural design of the facilities included in IDF Phase I\n10 Critical Systems.\n11 2.6 Technical Baseline Documents\n12 The technical baseline documents are listed in Section 3.1 of the SOW. These documents include the\n13 System Specification for Immobilized Low-Activity Waste Disposal System, ILAW Project Definition\n14 Criteria for Integrated Disposal Facility, Hanford Site Environmental Management Specification, and\n15 Design Loads for Tank Farm Facilities, discussed in the preceding sections.\n16 2.7 National Codes and Standards\n17 In addition to WAC 173-303, the system specification, project definition criteria, site specification, and\n18 tank farm design loads that are discussed above, the IDF Phase I Critical Systems design was guided by\n19 other applicable sections of accepted professional and industry standards. These included the following:\n20 * Air Moving and Conditioning Association\n21 * American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO)\n22 * American Concrete Institute\n23 * American Galvanizers Association\n24 * American Institute of Steel Construction\n25 * American Iron and Steel Institute\n26 * American National Standards Institute\n27 * American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)\n28 * American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)\n29 * American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers\n30 * American Society of Mechanical Engineers\n31 * American Water Works Association (AWWA)\n32 * American Welding Society\n33 * Building Officials and Code Administrators -Basic Building Code\n34 * Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)\n35 * Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI)\n36 * Federal Standards\n37 * Geosynthetic Research Institute (GRI)\n38 * Hydraulic Institute Standards\n39 * Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)\n40 * International Conference of Building Officials -Uniform Building Code (UBC)\n41 * Manufacturers Standardization Society\n42 * Metal Building Manufacturers Association\n43 * National Electrical Code (NEC)\n44 * National Electrical Manufacturers Association\nAppendix 4A.1.22\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)\n2 * National Institute of Standards and Technology\n3 * Occupational Safety and Health Administration\n4 * Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association\n5 * Steel Door Institute\n6 * Steel Structures Painting Council\n7 * Specialty Steel Institute of North America\n8 * The Aluminum Association, Inc.\n9 * Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.\n10 * Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Standard Specifications for Road,\n11 Bridge and Municipal Construction\n12 3.0 SITE CONDITIONS\n13 This section presents information on the Hanford Site and the area on the site where the IDF will be\n14 located. This information was obtained primarily from the ILA WPreliminary Closure Plan for the\n15 Disposal Facility (RPP-69 11) and other Hanford Site data sources. It is intended to provide a general\n16 characterization of the IDF site conditions that are pertinent to the design of the IDF Phase I Critical\n17 Systems.\n18 3.1 Geography\n19 The following paragraphs briefly describe the geography of the IDF site and are prepared from\n20 information in the ILAW Preliminary Closure Plan for the Disposal Facility (RPP-691 1).\n21 3.1.1 Site Location\n22 The location of the IDF is on the Hanford Central Plateau, in the 200 East Area within the Hanford Site\n23 boundary. The site identified for the IDF is 68 hectares (168 acres) of vacant and uncontaminated land,\n24 located southwest of the PUREX plant in the 200 East Area. It is bounded on the south by 1st Street and\n25 on the north by 4th Street.\n26 3.1.2 Site Description\n27 The IDF landfill will occupy approximately 25 hectares (62 acres) of the site identified for the facility.\n28 The remainder of the site will be used for soil stockpile, leachate storage tanks, operations support\n29 facilities, roads, parking areas, and open space. The IDF in Phase I will be approximately 11 hectares (28\n30 acres). Phase I will be located at the north end of the IDF landfill and will include provisions for\n31 expansion to the south for future phases.\n32 3.2 Meteorology and Climatology\n33 The following paragraphs briefly describe the climate of the IDF site and are prepared from information\n34 in the ILA WPreliminary Closure Plan for the Disposal Facility (RPP-69 11), which presented summary\n35 data from the Hanford Meteorological Station (HMS). Conditions at the HMS are considered similar to\n36 those at the IDF site. Detailed information is available in the Hanford Site Climatological Data Summary\n37 2001, with Historical Data (Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, May 2002). The IDF Phase I Critical\n38 Systems is designed to operate in the climatic conditions reported in that document.\n39 3.2.1 Precipitation\n40 The site sits within the Pasco Basin, characterized as a semi-arid region because of its low annual\n41 precipitation levels. The basin receives 16 cm (6.3 inches) of annual average precipitation, with nearly\n42 half occurring in the winter months. Historical records indicate that the annual precipitation has varied\n43 from a low of 8 cm (3.1 inches) to a high of 30 cm (11.8 inches). Precipitation of 4 cm (1.56 inches) in\n44 24 hours reportedly can be expected to occur once every 25 years.\nAppendix 4A. 1.23\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 However, based on the Hanford Site Climatological Data Summary 2001, a value of 1.28 inches was used\n2 for the 24-hour, 25-year precipitation in the IDF Phase I Critical Systems stormwater design analysis (see\n3 Appendix C.9). Total annual snowfall has varied from 0.8 cm to 110 cm (0.31 to 43.3 inches), with an\n4 average annual snowfall of 34 cm (24.4 inches).\n5 3.2.2 Temperature\n6 Temperature conditions for the site range from extremely cold during the winter months to extremely\n7 warm during the summer months. Local temperatures can reach -18 degrees C (0 degrees F) during some\n8 winter months. January is the coldest month, with an average temperature of -2 degrees C (29 degrees F).\n9 The lowest temperature ever recorded was -33 degrees C (-27 degrees F). During some summer months,\n10 daytime temperatures can exceed 40 degrees C (104 degrees F). July is the warmest month, with daily\n11 high and low temperatures averaging 33 and 25 degrees C (92 and 61 degrees F), respectively. The\n12 highest temperature ever recorded was 46 degrees C (115 degrees F).\n13 3.2.3 Wind\n14 Wind conditions can vary considerably throughout the year. The monthly average is about 10\n15 kilometers/hour (6 miles/hour) during the winter and 15 kilometers/hour (9 miles/hour) during the\n16 summer. Wind speeds, especially during summer storm activity, can reach many times the average\n17 levels. The greatest peak gust was 130 kilometers/hour (81 miles/hour), recorded at 15 meters (50 feet)\n18 above the ground at the HMS.\n19 3.2.4 Relative Humidity\n20 The seasonal variation in the relative humidity is considerable, according to records of the HMS. The\n21 annual mean relative humidity recorded at HMS is approximately 54 percent, with the highest monthly\n22 average relative humidity (80 percent) occurring in December and the lowest monthly average relative\n23 humidity (32 percent) occurring in July. Daily relative humidity can change 20 to 30 percent between\n24 early morning and late afternoon, except in the winter months when changes are less pronounced.\n25 3.3 Ecology\n26 The following paragraphs briefly describe the ecology of the Hanford Site and are prepared from\n27 information in the ILA WPreliminary Closure Plan for the Disposal Facility (RPP-69 11). The site\n28 consists of undeveloped land and is characterized as a shrub-steppe environment. This environment\n29 contains numerous plants and animal species, adapted to the regions semi-arid climate. Because of the\n30 aridity and low water-holding capacity of the soils, the productivity of both plants and animals is\n31 relatively low. The IDF site exhibits many of these same general characteristics, although to varying\n32 degrees.\n33 3.3.1 Flora\n34 The dominant plants on the Hanford Site are big sagebrush, rabbitbrush, cheatgrass, Russian thistle, and\n35 Sandberg's bluegrass, with cheatgrass providing half of the plant cover. Root penetration to depths of\n36 over 3 m has not been demonstrated in the 200 Areas. Rabbitbrush roots have been found only at a depth\n37 of 2.4 m (8 feet) near the 200 Areas.\n38 3.3.2 Fauna\n39 A variety of birds and mammals inhabit the Hanford Site. The most abundant nesting birds of the shrub-\n40 steppe at the site are the horned lark and western meadowlark. Significant populations of chukar and grey\n41 partridge inhabit the Hanford Site. The most abundant mammals at the site are mice, ground squirrels,\n42 gophers, voles, and cottontail rabbits. Larger animals include mule deer and elk. The coyote is the\n43 principal mammalian predator on the Hanford Site.\nAppendix 4A. 1.24\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.4 Geology\n2 3.4.1 Regional Geology\n3 The 200 East Area lies on the Cold Creek bar, a geomorphic remnant of the cataclysmic, glacial related\n4 floods of the Pleistocene Epoch. As the floodwaters raced across the lowlands of the Pasco Basin and\n5 Hanford Site, floodwaters lost energy and began to deposit sand and gravel. The 200 Area Plateau is one\n6 of the most prominent deposits. The 200 Area Plateau lies just southwest of one of the major flood\n7 channels across the Hanford Site that forms the topographic lowland south of Gable Mountain.\n8 Borehole data provide the principal source of geologic, hydrologic, and groundwater information for the\n9 200 East Area and the IDF site. Numerous boreholes (both vadose zone boreholes and-groundwater\n10 monitoring wells) have been drilled in the 200 East Area for groundwater monitoring and waste\n11 management studies (Figure 3-1 shows the location of groundwater wells near the IDF site). However,\n12 data are limited within the IDF site, primarily because no previous construction or waste disposal\n13 activities have occurred in this part of the HF. Most boreholes in the 200 East area have been drilled\n14 using the cable tool method and either a hard tool or drive barrel to advance the hole. Some boreholes\n15 have been drilled by rotary and wire-line coring methods. More recently, boreholes in the area have been\n16 drilled, and in five cases cored, by percussion hammer methods. Geologic logs are based on examination\n17 of drill core, chips, and cuttings from these boreholes. Chip samples typically are taken at 1.5-meter (4.92\n18 feet) intervals and routinely archived at the Hanford Geotechnical Sample Library.\n19 3.4.2 Site Geology\n20 The IDF site will be located south of the Gable Mountain segment of the Umtanum Ridge anticline and\n21 about 3 kilometers (1.86 miles) north of the axis of the Cold Creek syncline, that controls the structural\n22 grain of the basalt bedrock and the Ringold Formation. The basalt surface and Ringold Formation trend\n23 roughly southeast-northwest parallel to the major geologic structures of the site. As a result, the Ringold\n24 Formation and the underlying Columbia River Basalt Group gently dip to the south off the Umtanum\n25 Ridge anticline into the Cold Creek syncline.\n26 Geologic mapping on the Hanford Site and examination of drill core and borehole cuttings in the area\n27 have not identified any faults in the vicinity of the IDF site (DOE/RW-0164). The closest known faults\n28 are along the Umtanum Ridge-Gable Mountain structure, north of the disposal site and the May Junction\n29 Fault east of the site (Figure 3-2).\n30 3.4.2.1 Stratigraphy\n31 The basalt and post-basalt stratigraphy for the IDF site is shown in Figure 3-3. Approximately 137 to 167\n32 meters (449 to 548 feet) of suprabasalt sediments overlie the basalt bedrock at the site.\n33 Basalt Bedrock. Previous studies (RHO-BWI-ST-14; Reidel and Fecht, 1994) have shown that the\n34 youngest lava flows of the Columbia River Basalt Group at the 200 East Area are those of the\n35 10.5 million-year old Elephant Mountain Member. This member underlies the entire 200 East area and\n36 surrounding area, and forms the base of the suprabasalt aquifer. No erosional windows in the basalt are\n37 known or suspected to occur in the area of the IDF site.\n38 Ringold Formation. Few boreholes penetrate the entire Ringold Formation at the IDF site, so available\n39 data are limited. The Ringold Formation reaches a maximum thickness of 95 meters (312 feet) on the\n40 west side of the site and thins eastward. The member of Wooded Island (Figure 3-3) is the only member\n41 of the Ringold Formation in the 200 East Area. The deepest Ringold Formation unit encountered is the\n42 lower gravel, unit A. Lying above unit A is the lower mud, and overlying the lower mud is an upper\n43 gravel, unit E. The sand and silt units of the members of Taylor Flat and Savage Island of the Ringold\n44 Formation are not present at the IDF site. Unit A and unit E are equivalent to the Pliocene-Miocene\n45 continental conglomerates (Reidel and Fecht, 1994). The lower mud is equivalent to the\n46 Pliocene-Miocene continental sand, silt, and clay beds (Reidel and Fecht, 1994).\nAppendix 4A. 1.25\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Only three boreholes have penetrated unit A in the area of the IDF site. Unit A is 19 meters (62 feet)\n2 thick on the west side of the site and thins to the northeast. Unit A is partly to well-cemented\n3 conglomerate consisting of both felsic and basaltic clasts in a sandy matrix and is interpreted as fluvial\n4 gravel facies (Lindsey, 1996). There are minor beds of yellow to white interbedded sand and silt.\n5 Green-colored, reduced-iron stain is present on some grains and pebbles. Although the entire unit appears\n6 to be cemented, the zone produced abundant high-quality water in borehole 299-E17-21 (PNNL-l 1957,\n7 1998).\n8 Nineteen meters (62 feet) of the lower mud unit were encountered in one borehole at the IDF site\n9 (PNNL-1 1957, 1998). The uppermost one-meter or so consists of a yellow mud to sandy mud. The\n10 yellow mud grades downward into about 10 meters (33 feet) of blue mud. The blue mud, in turn, grades\n11 down into seven meters (23 feet) of brown mud with organic rich zones and occasional wood fragments.\n12 The lower mud unit is absent in the center of the site (northeast of borehole 299-E24-7 on Figure 3-4).\n13 Unit E is described as a sandy gravel to gravelly sand. Unit E is interpreted to consist of as much as\n14 15 meters (49 feet) of conglomerate, with scattered large pebbles and cobbles up to 25 centimeters (9.84\n15 inches) in size in a sandy matrix. The gravel consists of both felsic and basaltic rocks that are well\n16 rounded, with a sand matrix supporting the cobbles and pebbles. Cementation of this unit ranges from\n17 slight to moderate. The upper contact of unit E is not identified easily at the IDF site. In the western part\n18 of the study area, unconsolidated gravels of the Hanford formation directly overly the Ringold Formation\n19 unit E gravels, making exact placement of the contact difficult. The dominance of basalt and the absence\n20 of cementation in the Hanford formation are the key criteria used to distinguishing these\n21 (PNNL-1 1957, 1998). In the central and northeast part of the area, unit E has been eroded completely.\n22 Unconsolidated gravels and sands typical of the Hanford formation replace unit E.\n23 Unconformity at the Top of the Ringold Formation. The surface of the Ringold Formation is irregular\n24 in the area of the IDF site. A northwest-southeast trending erosional channel or trough is centered\n25 through the northeast portion of the site. The trough is deepest near borehole 299-E24-21 in the northern\n26 part of the site (PNNL-13652, 2001). This trough is interpreted as part of a larger trough under the\n27 200 East Area, resulting from scouring by the Missoula floods.\n28 Hanford formation. The Hanford formation is as much as 116 meters (381 feet) thick in and around the\n29 IDF site. The Hanford formation thickens in the erosional channel cut into the Ringold Formation and\n30 thins to the southwest along the margin of the channel.\n31 At the IDF site, the Hanford formation consists mainly of sand dominated facies and less amounts of silt\n32 dominated and gravel dominated facies. The Hanford formation has been described as poorly sorted\n33 pebble to boulder gravel and fine- to coarse-grained sand, with lesser amounts of interstitial and\n34 interbedded silt and clay. In previous studies of the site (WHC-MR-0391, 1991), the Hanford formation\n35 was described as consisting of three units: an upper and lower gravel facies and a sand facies between the\n36 two gravelly units. The upper gravel dominated facies appears to be thin or absent in the immediate area\n37 of the IDF site (PNNL-12257, 1999; PNNL-13652, 2001; PNNL-14029, 2002).\n38 The lowermost part of the Hanford formation encountered in boreholes at the IDF site consists of the\n39 gravel-dominated facies. Drill core and cuttings from boreholes 299-E17-21, 299-E17-22, 299-E17-23,\n40 299-E17-25, and 299-E24-21 indicate that the unit is a clast-supported pebble- to cobble-gravel with\n41 minor amounts of sand in the matrix. The cobbles and pebbles almost are exclusively basalt, with no\n42 cementation. This unit pinches out west of the IDF site and thickens to the east and northeast\n43 (Figure 3-4). The water table beneath the IDF site is located in the lower gravel unit. The lower gravel\n44 unit is interpreted to be Missoula flood gravels, deposited in the erosional channel carved into the\n45 underlying Ringold Formation.\n46\n47\nAppendix 4A. 1.26\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The upper portion of the Hanford formation consists of at least 73 meters (240 feet) of\n2 fine-to coarse-grained sand, with minor amounts of silt and clay and some gravelly sands.\n3 Holocene Deposits. Holocene, eolian deposits cover the southern part of the IDF site. Caliche coatings\n4 on the bottom of pebbles and cobbles in drill cores through this unit are typical of Holocene caliche\n5 development in the Columbia Basin. The southern part of the IDF site is capped by a stabilized sand\n6 dune. The eolian unit is composed of fine- to coarse-grained sands with abundant silt, as layers and as\n7 material mixed with the sand.\n8 Clastic Dikes. A clastic dike was encountered in borehole C3828, adjacent to well 299-E17-25 at the\n9 IDF site. Clastic dikes also have been observed in excavations surrounding the site (e.g., U.S. Ecology,\n10 the former Grout area, the 216-BC cribs, the Central Landfill, and the Environmental Restoration\n11 Disposal Facility [PNNL, BHI-01 103]). In undisturbed areas such as the IDF site, clastic dikes typically\n12 are not observed because these are covered by wind blown sediments. The occurrence of a clastic dike in\n13 borehole C3828 suggests that these probably are present elsewhere in the subsurface at the disposal site.\n14 3.4.3 Seismology\n15 The IDF will be located in Zone 2B, as identified in the UBC (DOE/RL-91-28). The analyses in\n16 Sections 5.1 and 5.12 provide additional seismic detail for design of liner and structural systems.\n17 No active faults, or evidence of a fault that has had a displacement during Holocene times, have been\n18 found on the Hanford Site (DOE/RL-91-28). The youngest faults recognized on the Hanford Site occur\n19 on Gable Mountain, over 4.5 kilometers (2.78 miles) north of the 200 East Area. These faults are\n20 Quaternary of age and are considered 'capable' by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (DOE/RL-91-28).\n21 3.5 Hydrology\n22 The following paragraphs briefly describe the known hydrology conditions of the Hanford Site and most\n23 specifically the 200 Area Plateau where the IDF site is located. These are prepared from information in\n24 the ILA WPreliminary Closure Plan for the Disposal Facility (RPP-691 1).\n25 3.5.1 Surface Water\n26 The IDF site is within the 200 East area, which is on a plateau above the Columbia River. The Columbia\n27 River runs generally to the east and swings around the site, lying about 8 miles northwest and northeast of\n28 the 200 East area. The project area is significantly higher than the Columbia River and is not in the\n29 river's floodplain.\n30 The soils in the project area are sandy with high rates of infiltration. Most of the precipitation falling on\n31 the site infiltrates into the ground, and there are no significant long-term surface water features in the\n32 project area.\n33 3.5.2 Groundwater\n34 The geologic structure of the 200 East area is composed of multiple layers of sediments that range from\n35 sand, silt, volcanic ash, and clay to coarse gravels, cobbles, and conglomerates that overlay thick layers of\n36 basaltic lava. An unconfined aquifer exists in the lower part of the sedimentary sequence, overlaying the\n37 uppermost basalt layer. This relatively thin aquifer intercepts infiltration from the unsaturated zone above\n38 it. The aquifer under the IDF site is approximately 90 to 100 meters (300 to 330 feet) below the ground\n39 surface. Therefore, the groundwater table is well below the proposed bottom of the excavation for the\n40 IDF and is not expected to influence the facility. The recharge of water into the ground at the IDF site is\n41 expected to be small. This condition results primarily from the low levels of annual precipitation that\n42 occur in the region of the IDF as well as the rest of the Hanford Site. A more detailed description of\n43 groundwater beneath the IDF, developed from various site explorations performed in the site area, is\n44 presented below.\n45 The unconfined aquifer under the IDF site occurs in the fluvial gravels of the Ringold Formation and\n46 flood deposits of the Hanford formation.\nAppendix 4A.1.27\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The thickness of the aquifer ranges from about 70 meters (230 feet) at the southwest corner of the site to\n2 about 30 meters (98 feet) under the northeast corner of the IDF site. The Elephant Mountain Member of\n3 the Columbia River Basalt Group forms the base of the unconfined aquifer (Figure 3-3).\n4 The unsaturated zone beneath the land surface at the IDF site is approximately 100 meters (328 feet) thick\n5 and consists of the Hanford formation. The water level in boreholes in and around the site indicates that\n6 the water table is in the lower gravel sequence of the Hanford formation and at an elevation of\n7 approximately 123 meters (404 feet) above sea level. The water table is nearly flat beneath the IDF site.\n8 Table 3-1 gives water level information from wells near the site. The locations of the wells are shown on\n9 Figure 3-1. The latest water table map shows less than about 0.1 meter (3.94 inches) of hydraulic head\n10 across the IDF site (PNNL-13404, 2001).\n11 The Ringold Formation lower mud unit occurs within the aquifer at the southwest corner of the IDF site\n12 (299-E17-21) but is absent in the central and northern parts of the site (299-E24-7 and 299-E24-21). The\n13 lower mud unit is known to be a confining or partly confining layer at places under the Hanford Site\n14 (PNNL-12261, 2000), and this might be the case under the southwest corner of the IDF site.\n15 Groundwater samples were collected and analyzed from above and below the lower mud unit during\n16 drilling of well 299-E17-21. Chemical parameters (pH, electrical conductivity, and Eh) were different in\n17 the two samples, suggesting that the lower mud is at least partly confining in the area. No contamination\n18 was found above or below the lower mud. An interpretation of the distribution and thickness of this\n19 stratum is shown in Figure 3-4. The surface of the lower mud unit is interpreted to dip gently to the\n20 southwest (PNNL-13652, 2001).\n21 Hydrographs for selected wells near the IDF site are shown in Figures 3-5 and 3-6. Hydrographs for the\n22 older wells (299-E23-1, 299-E23-2, and 299-E24-7) show two maxima in the water level. These coincide\n23 with the operation of the PUREX Plant that operated between 1956 and 1972 and between 1983 and\n24 1988. All the hydrographs show a decline in the water table during recent years. The rate of decline is\n25 between 0.18 and 0.22 meters (7.08 and 8.66 inches)/year and will take between 10 and 30 years to\n26 stabilize. The reason for the decline is the cessation of effluent discharge to the PUREX Plant and to the\n27 216-B Pond System, centered northeast of 200 East area. Based on hindcast water table maps (PNNL,\n28 BNWL-B-360), the water table is expected to decline another 2 to 7 meters (7 to 23 feet) before reaching\n29 pre-Hanford Site elevations. The cessations of effluent discharge also are responsible for changing the\n30 direction of groundwater flow across much of the 200 East area.\n31 Groundwater flow beneath the IDF site recently was modeled to be southeasterly (PNNL-13400, 2000).\n32 This direction differs from the easterly direction, predicted by the analysis of WHC-SD-WM-RPT-241\n33 and other earlier reports. The southeasterly flow direction primarily is attributable to inclusion of the\n34 highly permeable Hanford formation sediments in the ancestral Columbia River/Missoula flood channel\n35 in the analysis. A southeasterly flow direction is reflected in the geographic distribution of the regional\n36 nitrate and tritium plumes in the south-central 200 East area (Figure 3-7) (PNNL-1 3788, 2002.). As\n37 stated in PNNL-13404 (2001), the water table gradient is too low to be used for determining flow\n38 direction or flow rate at the PUREX Plant cribs, immediately east of the IDF site.\n39 Hydraulic conductivity directly beneath the IDF site was estimated from data collected during four slug\n40 tests at well 299-E17-21 and five slug tests of 299-E24-21. The interval tested at 299-El 7-21 was the\n41 upper 7.8 meters (26 feet) of the unconfined aquifer from 101.3 to 109.1 meters (332 to 358 feet) depth.\n42 That portion of the aquifer is Hanford formation gravel, from 101.3 to 102.1 meters (332 to 335 feet)\n43 depth, and Ringold Formation unit E gravels, from 102.1 to 109.1 meters (335 to 358 feet) depth\n44 (PNNL-12257, 1999). The interval tested at well 299-E24-21 was entirely in the Hanford formation\n45 gravel sequence between 95.2 and 101.3 meters (312 and 332 feet) depth. The best-fit value to the data\n46 from 299-E17-21 indicated a hydraulic conductivity of about 68.6 meters (225 feet) per day\n47 (PNNL- 12257, 1999), and that from 299-E24-21 suggested a hydraulic conductivity of 75 meters\n48 (246 feet) per day (PNNL-13652, 2001).\nAppendix 4A. 1.28\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nTable 3-1.

The generalized soil profile\n6 used in the analysis and design is presented; the engineering soil properties used for design are presented\n7 and discussed in Section 5 and related appendices.\n8 4.1.1 Existing Explorations\n9 Several field explorations have been conducted in the general area of the IDF, as discussed in Section\n10 3.4.1 and presented in Figure 3-1. Figure 1-2 shows the current IDF footprint and the closest borings to\n11 the planned facility. As shown in Figure 1-2, with the exception of one boring, the existing explorations\n12 are all outside of the footprint of the IDF.\n13 The existing field explorations at the IDF site have been conducted primarily for geologic and\n14 hydrogeologic characterization on a \"big picture\" scale. The existing explorations provide detailed\n15 information for the purposes for which they were conducted; however, from a geotechnical engineering\n16 perspective, the existing borings at or near the IDF site provides only general information, as discussed\n17 below.\n18 Depth of Interest-In many cases, the explorations focused on providing detailed information for the\n19 entire soil column above the bedrock at the IDF site (300 or more feet below ground surface [bgs]). The\n20 primary depth of interest for detailed engineering and design purposes is the depth of the planned cell\n21 excavation (roughly 50 feet below the existing ground surface); for a few analyses, information about the\n22 material 25 to 50 feet below the base of the excavation is also important.\n23 Type of Information-As intended, the existing explorations was generally focused on providing\n24 information for geologic characterization purposes. This focus differs from the key items generally\n25 required for geotechnical design, including Standard Penetration Testing (SPT) per ASTM requirements\n26 and classification by the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) in both the field and the laboratory.\n27 For coarse-grained soils (sands and gravels), that make up the bulk of the native soil profile, in situ SPT\n28 in conjunction with grain-size data is the primary basis for determining geotechnical engineering\n29 parameters of the soil, such as shear strength. In all cases the SPT values were either not readily available\n30 or were conducted with non-standard equipment. Also, the existing grain size data and soil\n31 classifications, both for field and laboratory results were based on the Wentworth scale, which differs\n32 from the USCS scale at the gravel and fines divisions. These are the key division points for classifying\n33 coarse-grained soils. In particular, the break point for fines contents is important in determining the\n34 suitability of the excavated soils for use in the admix liner as well as for other on-site filling purposes.\n35 Many of the soils within the depth of interest for the IDF are near this classification break point.\n36 Proximity to the IDF-As shown in Figure 1-2, in nearly all cases the explorations were located outside\n37 of the IDF footprint. The standard of practice for geotechnical engineering is to place explorations within\n38 or very close to the footprint of the proposed structure, if possible.\n39 There have been several geotechnically focused explorations conducted for various projects at Hanford.\n40 The projects closest and/or most applicable to the IDF site are:\n41 The Grout Vault project, located approximately one-half mile east of the IDF site (Dames and Moore,\n42 1988).\n43 The W-025 Project, a radioactive mixed-waste land disposal facility designed in accordance with RCRA\n44 Subtitle C design criteria, located several miles west of the IDF site (in Area 200W, Golder Associates,\n45 1995, 1994a, 1994b, and 1988).\n46 The RPP-WTP, location approximately 1 mile east of the IDF site (Shannon and Wilson, 2000 and 2001).\nAppendix 4A.1.37\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI These projects all provide geotechnical engineering information; however, the closest site is one-half-mile\n2 from the IDF. The standard of care for geotechnical engineering is to either use existing geotechnically\n3 based information that is at the site and/or conduct site and project specific explorations. This is to verify\n4 that the soil conditions at the site are either still valid (no changes since the time of the existing\n5 explorations) or are consistent with existing data.\n6 4.1.2 Current Explorations\n7 Due to the limits of the geotechnical specific data, a subsurface exploration plan specific to the Phase I\n8 portion of the IDF was proposed. The suggested locations for the exploration are shown in Figure 1-2.\n9 This exploration is currently in planning.\n10 During this design effort, a limited surface sampling plan was conducted at the locations shown in\n11 Figure 1-2. The surface samples were taken from the upper 2 to 3 feet of soil, primarily to provide\n12 samples for admix testing (to determine if the soils were suitable as a base soil), as well as to help fill in\n13 for the absence of a full exploration program at the time of this design effort. As shown in Figure 1-2,\n14 samples were taken from primarily from the dune sand borrow area within the IDF footprint (SD-1\n15 through SD-4) and the active sand borrow area (SD-5) to the east of the IDF footprint. One surface\n16 sample (SD-6) was obtained from within the IDF Phase I limits.\n17 4.1.3 Site Stratigraphy\n18 In the absence of a comprehensive site and project specific geotechnical engineering data, the existing and\n19 current data discussed above was reviewed to determine appropriate soil profile and geotechnical\n20 parameters for use in engineering analysis and design. The stratigraphy and soil properties were generally\n21 selected conservatively to account for the uncertainty in the subsurface information. The general soil\n22 stratigraphy beneath the Phase I section of the IDF was assumed to be:\n23 * 10 feet of Dune (Eolian) sand, overlying\n24 * 50 feet of Upper Hanford sand, overlying\n25 Lower Hanford sand to depth of interest.\n26 It is expected that a greater depth of Dune sand exists in the southern portion of the IDF footprint (note\n27 topographic change in the southern one-third of the IDF footprint in Figure 1-2).\n28 The engineering properties and parameters assumed for these soil units were based on the information\n29 provided in the geotechnical reports listed in the previous section. The individual values are discussed in\n30 Section 5 and related appendices.\n31 4.1.4 Future Explorations\n32 It is recommended that a comprehensive, geotechnically focused exploration program be completed, prior\n33 to construction, to verify that the assumptions made for soil stratigraphy and engineering properties are\n34 valid. A more comprehensive set of explorations is currently being planned. The planned locations for\n35 the additional explorations are shown in Figure 1-2, and include three explorations within the Phase I\n36 footprint and one exploration in the proposed sand borrow area.\n37 4.2 Laboratory Testing\n38 A limited laboratory testing program was conducted, using the soils collected during the surface sampling\n39 program discussed in Section 4.1.3. These samples were used to perform the index testing, admix testing,\n40 and geosynthetics interface shear testing.\n41 4.2.1 Index Testing\n42 Index testing was performed to evaluate the basic index and classification properties of the soil obtained\n43 from surface sampling program. This testing was conducted to provide data for comparison with both the\n44 soils used for the W025 admix liner and also for other soils that are considered for use as the base soil for\n45 the IDF project, as the final design and construction proceeds.\nAppendix 4A.1.38\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The laboratory testing was conducted by Soil Technology, Inc., (STI) of Bainbridge Island, Washington,\n2 under subcontract to the Affiliate. Test assignment and coordination was provided by the Affiliate. Index\n3 testing included the following ASTM tests:\n4 * ASTM D422 -Test Method for Particle-Size Analysis of Soils (grain size and hydrometer\n5 analyses)\n6 * ASTM D698 -Test Method for Laboratory Compaction Characteristics of Soil Using Standard\n7 Effort\n8 * ASTM D 1140 -Test Method for Amount of Material in Soils Finer then the No. 200 Sieve (P200\n9 Wash)\n10 * ASTM D1557 -Test Method for Laboratory Compaction Characteristics of Soil Using Modified\n11 Efforts\n12 * ASTM D2216 -Test Method for Laboratory Determination of Water (Moisture) Content of Soil\n13 and Rock\n14 * Compaction characteristics were also determined for a composite of the surface soils, as\n15 described in the next section.\n16 4.2.2 Admix Testing Program\n17 The admix testing program was developed to determine two key items:\n18 * Percentage of sodium bentonite required to meet hydraulic conductivity requirements\n19 * Appropriate moisture and density parameters to achieve the required hydraulic conductivity\n20 Index testing of the admix soils was also conducted, as well as a consolidation test. The laboratory\n21 testing was conducted by STI. Tests were run in general accordance with the following:\n22 * ASTM D422 -Test Method for Particle-Size Analysis of Soils (grain size and hydrometer\n23 analyses)\n24 * ASTM D698B -Test Method for Laboratory Compaction Characteristics of Soil Using Standard\n25 Effort\n26 * ASTM D1557 -Test Method for Laboratory Compaction Characteristics of Soil Using Modified\n27 Efforts\n28 * ASTM D2216 -Test Method for Laboratory Determination of Water (Moisture) Content of Soil\n29 and Rock\n30 * ASTM D2435 -Test Method for One-dimensional Consolidation Properties of Soils\n31 * ASTM D4318 -Test Method for Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit, and Plasticity Index of Soils\n32 (Atterberg Limits)\n33 * ASTM D5084 -Test Method for Measurement of Hydraulic Conductivity of Saturated Porous\n34 Materials Using a Flexible Wall Permeameter\n35 The base soil for the admix testing was created by compositing SD-I through SD-4 from the surface\n36 sampling program. This composite did not include SD-5, taken at the base of the existing sand borrow\n37 area (lower elevation than the other samples) that has slightly different properties than the remainder of\n38 the surface samples. SD-6 was not included at the time of the admix testing because it is not within the\n39 footprint of the planned borrow area. The base composite sample was labeled as COMP-1. This\n40 composite was then used to create the two other soils for admix testing:\n41 * COMP-2: COMP-1 base soil mixed with 8 percent bentonite\n42 * COMP-3: COMP-1 base soil mixed with 12 percent bentonite\n43 * Moisture and density testing was conducted on all of the composite samples.\n44\nAppendix 4A.1.39\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The initial hydraulic conductivity testing was conducted using eight and 12 percent bentonite (by weight),\n2 based on the results of the admix testing program conducted by Golder for the W025 Project (Golder,\n3 1991 b). The target laboratory hydraulic conductivity was less than 10-8 cm/sec when permeated with\n4 water. Testing was not conducted with leachate, as no actual leachate exists for the planned waste at this\n5 time. Golder Associates used a synthetic leachate to perform compatibility testing on the admix liner.\n6 Based on these results, they increased the bentonite percentage from 8 to 12 percent, hence the use of\n7 these values in these tests. Because the base soils are expected to be similar to that used by Golder for the\n8 W025 landfill, and until a more refined characterization of the IDF leachate is developed, the\n9 compatibility testing performed for the W025 project was considered applicable to the IDF project.\n10 Hydraulic conductivity testing was performed on all samples in flexible wall triaxial cells with\n11 backpressure saturation, in general accordance with ASTM D5084. An effective confining stress of\n12 5 pounds per square in (psi) was applied to each test cell. Appendix B.1 includes the details for the test,\n13 including the inflow and outflow data used to confirm that each test had obtained a steady-state hydraulic\n14 conductivity value.\n15 After the initial hydraulic conductivity testing was completed, additional samples were set up to\n16 determine the range of moisture and density parameters that are expected to produce the required\n17 hydraulic conductivity in the field.\n18 As noted above, the samples used for the testing were gathered from the surface sampling program. Once\n19 a more comprehensive exploration program is conducted within the IDF footprint, the suitability of the\n20 soils within the excavation below a depth of 5 feet (upper 2-3 feet) can be examined for use as a base soil\n21 for the admix.\n22 4.2.3 Geosynthetics Interface Shear Testing\n23 A limited soil-to-geosynthetic interface shear testing program was conducted to determine the interface\n24 shear values between the operations soil and the composite drainage net (CDN), and the admix liner soils\n25 and the high-density polyethylene (HDPE). These interfaces are site specific because of the unique nature\n26 of the soils, hence their behavior in interface shear. The testing was conducted by Precision Geotechnical\n27 Laboratories in Anaheim, California. Soil samples collected during the surface sampling program were\n28 used for testing; GSE Lining Technologies, Inc. based in Houston, Texas provided the geosynthetics for\n29 testing.\n30 The interface shear tests were conducted in general accordance with ASTM D5321-Standard Test\n31 Method for Determining the Coefficient of Soil and Geosynthetic or Geosynthetic and Geosynthetic\n32 Friction by the Direct Shear Method. The tests were conducted for both low (100 to 500 psf) and high\n33 (1000 to 8000 psf) normal stress levels, to account for the variation in normal stresses that will be applied\n34 across the lining system in the final landfill configuration. Both the peak and residual strength values\n35 were determined during testing. Additional details for the tests are presented with the test results in\n36 Appendix B.2.\n37 Asperity testing was also conducted on the textured HDPE geomembrane, in general accordance with\n38 GRI-GM12 -Asperity Height of Textured Geomembrane. The purpose of the asperity testing was to\n39 establish a baseline roughness of the texturing of the HDPE geomembrane and for future assessments of\n40 the interface shear strength of other textured HDPE geomembrane products (e.g., from other\n41 manufacturers).\n42 Site-specific interface shear testing was not conducted for geosynthetic-to-geosynthetic (such as CDN to\n43 geosynthetic clay liner [GCL]) interfaces in this phase of design, as these values are primarily a function\n44 of the manufactured product properties. A database of values for geosynthetic-to-geosynthetic interface\n45 testing was used to determine the appropriate interface shear values for design. During construction, the\n46 actual materials used on the site will be tested as part of the construction QC/QA, to ensure that the\n47 installed materials used onsite meet or exceed the interface shear strength values used in the design.\nAppendix 4A. 1.40\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.3 Laboratory Test Results\n2 The results of the laboratory testing programs are summarized below and presented in Appendix B.l and\n3 Appendix B.2.\n4 4.3.1 Index Testing\n5 The results of the index testing for the surface samples are presented in Table 4-1. The test results are\n6 included with the admix liner soils test results in Appendix B.1. Results of the index testing indicate that\n7 the grain size analyses for near-surface soil samples from locations SD-I through SD-6 correlate well\n8 with data from the W025 base soil material. The W025 base soil was a dune sand (Eolian deposits)\n9 obtained from the upper 15 feet of site excavations. As discussed in Section 5.4, based on the results\n10 shown below and due to the limited nature of the near surface soil samples, the base soil is limited to the\n11 upper 5 feet of material excavated from the dune sand borrow area or the Phase I site excavation.\nTable 4-1.

Engineering analysis components for each of these critical systems is presented in this\n12 section. A general description of system components is located in Section 5.6.1, that presents the primary\n13 and secondary liner systems that make up the major layers of the landfill (detailed system descriptions are\n14 presented in Section 6).\n15 In preparation of the IDF design, a number of design requirements and criteria as presented in Section 2\n16 have been considered. Compliance with these design requirements is provided in Appendix A. The\n17 specific criteria evaluated for the IDF design included:\n18 * Slope stability\n19 * Landfill bearing capacity\n20 * Settlement and uplift analyses\n21 * Admix liner\n22 * Geosynthetic liner design\n23 * Liner systems/leachate compatibility\n24 * Drainage layer\n25 * Leachate production\n26 * Leachate collection system\n27 * Surface stormwater\nAppendix 4A.1.43\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Action leakage rate\n2 * Building systems analyses\n3 * Civil grading\n4 5.1 Slope Stability\n5 Slope stability for the IDF landfill was examined for liner veneer (side slope) stability, earthwork\n6 stability, waste/fill global stability. The analyses for each of these cases are summarized in the sections\n7 below; Appendices C.1.a through C. I.c presents the analyses and results in detail.\n8 5.1.1 Liner Veneer (Side Slope) Stability\n9 The veneer stability of the liner system on the side slopes was evaluated for the period prior to waste\n10 filling. The analysis examined the potential for sliding of the drainage and operations layers on the liner\n11 system before waste is placed.\n12 The analyses were conducted using the weakest of the interface strengths of the various lining system\n13 components. The interface strengths were determined from regression analyses of data gathered from\n14 various sources, including site-specific test data completed to date. Based on the data (presented in\n15 Appendix C. .a), the critical interface is the textured HDPE/CDN interface. Properties of the cover soil\n16 (operations layer) were determined from laboratory testing to date on the materials expected to be used\n17 for the operations layer.\n18 Four loading conditions were examined:\n19 * Dead load: self-weight of the lining system (including the first operations layer)\n20 * Dead load + Equipment: self-weight of the lining system with an equipment load\n21 * Dead load + Seepage: self-weight of the lining system with a seepage load (to account for fluid\n22 head in the leachate collection system); seepage loads were based on results from the leachate\n23 system hydraulic analyses\n24 * Seismic Loading: self-weight of the lining system with seismic loading\n25 The results of the analyses show that the lining system is stable for the conditions analyzed and no\n26 anchorage forces are required to meet the minimum factors of safety (1.5 for dead load only; 1.3 for\n27 equipment and seepage loading). A minimum interface friction of 25 degrees and cohesion of 0 psf is\n28 required to meet the minimum acceptable factors of safety. The slopes are also considered to be stable\n29 under seismic loading, based on comparing the calculated yield acceleration and with the design\n30 acceleration values provided in the design criteria by CH2M HILL (September, 2002), using the hazard\n31 classification assigned to the overall facility.\n32 The critical interface friction values will be verified during construction to ensure that the system will be\n33 stable. The analyses and results are presented in full detail in Appendix C. I.a.\n34 5.1.2 Earthwork Stability\n35 The earthwork stability analysis covered the following three cases:\n36 Excavation Case: This case covers the stability of the landfill slopes immediately after excavation and\n37 before placement of the lining system. Only static loading was considered since this is an interim\n38 configuration that will only exist for the construction period.\n39 Ramp Case: This case covers the stability of the landfill slopes and access ramp at the south end of the\n40 cell, including equipment loading on the ramps. Both static and seismic loading were examined, as the\n41 access ramps are expected to be in use for a period of at least 10 years.\n42 Dike Case: This case covers the stability of the perimeter dike (shine berm and access road) after\n43 construction of the dike and before final closure of the landfill.\nAppendix 4A.1.44\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Both static and seismic loading were examined, since the perimeter dike may be in place until the final\n2 cover system is completed (greater than 10 years).\n3 Properties for the native soils are based on existing information, as a site-specific geotechnical\n4 engineering investigation program has not yet been completed for the IDF facility. When this\n5 investigation is completed, the results of this analysis (and any others that rely on the properties of the\n6 native soils) will be verified. Geometry used in the analyses is based on the civil plans (generally 3H:1V\n7 slopes with a few short 2H:1V slopes).\n8 The results of the analyses show that the planned configurations of the landfill are stable under static\n9 loading (factor of safety [FS] greater than 1.3 and 1.5, depending on the case analyzed); the\n10 configurations are also considered seismically stable based on the criteria for the Hanford site. Full\n11 details on the analysis method, the input data, and the results are presented in Appendix C. I.b.\n12 5.1.3 Waste/Fill Global Stability\n13 This analysis examined the following conditions:\n14 Phase I Full Build-Out: This case examined the stability of the waste mass in full build-out of the Phase\n15 1 waste cell. The critical stability examined was the waste sliding on the lining system. Both static and\n16 seismic loading conditions were examined.\n17 Final Configuration: This case examined the stability of the waste mass at the final configuration (entire\n18 IDF landfill completed) along the edge of the cover system. Only static loading conditions were\n19 examined, since this system is not being designed as part of the current effort.\n20 Interim filling conditions and the internal stability of the waste mass were not examined. The internal\n21 waste mass stability will primarily be a function of the filling methodology. Possible filling plans for the\n22 waste are currently being developed.\n23 For the analysis of the full build-out of Phase I, the critical interface strengths in the lining system were\n24 determined in the same way as for the veneer stability (regression analyses of existing and site specific\n25 testing data). A combination of peak and residual strengths were used, based on methodology currently\n26 being employed in the state of the practice. A final check was also made to confirm that the use of\n27 residual strengths in all locations resulted in a factor of safety greater than 1.0.\n28 The results show that the system is stable for the configurations analyzed and for the interface friction\n29 values available at the time of the analyses (FS greater than 1.5 in static loading and yield acceleration\n30 greater than the 10,000-year event). The system also has a FS greater than 1.0 for the case of residual\n31 strengths in all locations. The critical interfaces are the HDPE-CDN on the side slopes (using residual\n32 strengths) and the HDPE-GCL on the base liner (using peak strengths) and the internal GCL strength\n33 (using residual strengths). These results should be verified when additional site-specific test data\n34 becomes available prior to and during construction.\n35 Also, it should be noted that for the full Phase I build-out configuration, the most critical case appears to\n36 be a failure surface that is allowed to propagate through the waste mass. As noted previously, the waste\n37 mass was considered internally stable for this design effort. During final operations planning, the internal\n38 stability of the waste will be examined in conjunction with the proposed waste filling plan.\n39 For the final configuration with the cover in place, the preliminary geometry and assumed cover system\n40 properties show that the configuration is stable under static loading (FS greater than 1.5) and the critical\n41 failure does not intersect the waste mass. Stability of the final configuration under both static and seismic\n42 loading should be examined in more detail as the final design develops for the final closure of the entire\n43 IDF facility.\n44 A full discussion of the methodology, input data, and the results is presented in Appendix C.I.c.\nAppendix 4A. 1.45\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 5.2 Landfill Bearing Capacity\n2 5.2.1 Subgrade Soil\n3 Based on the available geotechnical data from other projects (as discussed in Section 4), the strength of\n4 the native subgrade soils beneath the landfill is expected to be greater than that for the operations layer or\n5 any of the liner system components. Greater strengths equate to higher bearing capacities, and hence, the\n6 bearing capacity of the subgrade soils within the landfill cell was not determined directly as they are not\n7 the controlling factor.\n8 The bearing capacity of the subgrade soils beneath the supporting structures adjacent to the landfill cell\n9 was determined for the structural analyses, discussed under Section 5.12.1-Geotechnical Design\n10 Parameters, and the results of the analyses are presented in Appendix C.1 l.a.\n11 5.2.2 Liner Soils\n12 The soil layers in the lining system include the operations layer, drain gravel, and the admix liner soils.\n13 The admix liner soils will be placed beneath the geosynthetic lining system, and as such, loading on the\n14 admix liner soils is limited to the allowable loads for the GCL. The allowable loads for the GCL are\n15 much less than what the bearing capacity of the admix liner soils would be (the admix soils have much\n16 higher strengths, particularly for bearing pressures). The drain gravel will be placed just above the lining\n17 system; the shear strength and associated bearing capacity are also much greater than the GCL allowable\n18 values.\n19 At the time of these calculations, structures that would cause bearing pressure were not yet determined.\n20 Hence, the bearing capacity for the operations soils was calculated for foundation widths from I to 10 feet\n21 and for 2 different shapes (square and strip). Properties for the operations soils were based on laboratory\n22 testing conducted to date; these properties will be verified during construction to ensure that the analyses\n23 results are valid.\n24 For a factor of safety of 3, the allowable bearing capacities for the operations layer are presented in\n25 Table 5-1.\nTable 5-1. Operations Soil Bearing Capacities\nB, Foundation Width (feet) gall, square foundation (tsf) ga1, strip foundation (tsf)\n1 0.20 0.33\n5 1.0 1.6\n10 2.0 3.3\n26 As the operations plans are further developed, these values can be updated for the planned structures\n27 (such as barrier walls). Details of the analyses are presented in Appendix C.2.\n28 5.3 Settlement and Uplift Analyses\n29 5.3.1 Settlement Analysis of Liner Foundation\n30 The long term settlement of the soils supporting the geosynthetic liner system was estimated based on the\n31 maximum loading expected in the landfill at the final IDF completion. The two soil units examined were\n32 the admix liner soils and the native subgrade soils. For the admix soils, data from laboratory\n33 consolidation testing performed on samples available at the time of the analysis were used to determine\n34 the estimated settlements. Elastic methods were used to estimate the settlements of the subgrade soils.\n35 As detailed in Appendix C.3, the estimated long term settlement over the lifetime of the landfill is 2.7 feet\n36 under the maximum loading.\n37 5.3.2 Subsidence and Sinkhole Potential\n38 Subsidence of undisturbed foundation materials is generally the result of dissolution, fluid extraction\n39 (water or petroleum), or mining. Subsidence is not expected to occur based on the following:\nAppendix 4A.1.46\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * The soils underlying the IDF are generally dense, coarse-grained, and well-graded sands and\n2 gravels that will not be subject to piping effects that could transport soil and result in subsidence.\n3 Also, sands and gravels are generally not susceptible to dissolution.\n4 * The groundwater level is deep and will not affect bearing soils.\n5 * The bedrock is basalt (volcanic), which is not generally susceptible to dissolution.\n6 * No mining or tunneling has been reported in the areas beneath or surrounding the site for the IDF.\n7 * Borings in and around the IDF have not identified any soluble materials in the foundation soils or\n8 underlying sediments. Consequently, the potential for any sinkhole development will be\n9 negligible.\n10 5.3.3 Uplift Potential\n11 The potential for uplift of the composite liner system is very low. The seasonal high-water level is over\n12 200 feet below the base of the base of the landfill cell, so no external hydrostatic pressure is expected\n13 from this source. Perched groundwater is not expected to occur due to the absence of continuous\n14 aquitards (such as a clay layer) within the coarse-grained native soils at the IDF site. Any infiltration that\n15 does occur is expected to percolate rapidly to deeper soil layers.\n16 Gas pressures are also expected to be negligible, as no gas-generating material (i.e., organic material) is\n17 expected in the foundation soils. Also, the subgrade soils are coarse grained and unsaturated, so any gas\n18 that might occur is expected to be rapidly dissipated.\n19 5.4 Admix Liner\n20 5.4.1 Mix Design\n21 WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(i)(B) requires that the lower component of a composite bottom liner be\n22 constructed of compacted soil material with an in-situ hydraulic conductivity no greater than 10-7 cm/sec.\n23 Because of the lack of naturally occurring soils on-site that could achieve this requirement, a test program\n24 was developed to determine the admixture requirements for a mixed soil design using on-site base soil\n25 from either the Phase I excavation or dune sand borrow area (see Drawing H-2-830826 for location) and\n26 sodium bentonite. Details of the base soil field exploration and admix testing program are provided in\n27 Section 4.\n28 The results of the limited field exploration for base soil samples and subsequent admix testing program\n29 discussed in Section 4 show that a nominal bentonite content of 12 percent will meet the laboratory target\n30 hydraulic conductivity of less than 10-8 cm/sec when permeated with water. The laboratory target was\n31 established based on results of the soil liner/leachate compatibility study (Golder Associates, 1991b) for\n32 the W025 landfill. Details of Golder's study are discussed in Section 5.6. The W025 study concluded\n33 that the bentonite content of the admix should be increased from 8 percent (the minimum bentonite\n34 percent needed to achieve the required hydraulic conductivity) to 12 percent, to provide adequate\n35 resistance against high inorganic concentrations in the synthetic leachate for the W025 project. Index\n36 laboratory testing on the limited field exploration at the IDF site (surface sampling) established that the\n37 base soil for the IDF was similar to the W-025 project, as discussed in Section 4. Thus, until a more\n38 refined characterization of the IDF leachate is developed, the compatibility testing from the W025 testing\n39 is applicable to the IDF mix design.\n40 Once initial hydraulic testing confirmed that an admix with 12 percent bentonite content could achieve\n41 the laboratory target value, additional samples were set up to evaluate a range of moisture and density\n42 parameters and their effect on hydraulic conductivity. The additional hydraulic conductivity tests were\n43 performed to define moisture content-density requirements for a range of compactive energy, as outlined\n44 by Daniel and Benson (1990). This data was being used to develop an \"acceptable\" zone of moisture and\n45 density for use by QC personnel during construction. The acceptable zone for the 12 percent admix is\n46 presented along with the admix design laboratory test results in Appendix B. 1.\nAppendix 4A. 1.47\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The acceptable zone was developed based on samples that achieved a hydraulic conductivity of less than\n2 10-8 cm/sec. A lower bound of 95 percent relative compaction, based on Standard Proctor (ASTM D698)\n3 compactive effort, was established to ensure adequate shear strength levels. As indicated in the technical\n4 specifications (see Section 02666), the moisture-density range of the compacted admixes shall lie within a\n5 trapezoidal-shaped field with the following comers:\nMoisture Content % Dry Density (pcf)\n8 126\n14 126\n12 110\n19 110\n6 Note that the minimum dry density of 110 listed above corresponds to approximately 95 percent of the\n7 maximum dry density for admix, as measured by ASTM D698.\n8 5.4.2 Placement and Testing\n9 The moisture-density requirements developed as part of the admix testing program will be included in the\n10 specifications for the admix liner (see discussion in Section 5.4.1, and technical specifications,\n11 Section 02666). The intent of the placement technical specifications is to help ensure that the admix liner\n12 will meet an in-place performance specification for hydraulic conductivity of less than l x10-7 cm/sec.\n13 The contractor is responsible for developing and implementing compaction means and methods that will\n14 produce the required relative compaction.\n15 The recommended nominal bentonite percentage (12 percent) and moisture-density parameters for the\n16 admix liner have been developed with a one order of magnitude factor of safety between laboratory and\n17 field values for hydraulic conductivity. The factor of safety is expected to account for two issues: (1)\n18 variations in the hydraulic conductivity between the laboratory soil amendment study and full-scale\n19 production, and (2) the laboratory samples were permeated with water rather than leachate, which could\n20 lead to a difference in the field hydraulic conductivity. However, factors such as base soil variability at\n21 the borrow source and field placement and construction are difficult to quantify until full-scale production\n22 begins for the admix liner. A test pad will be constructed as part the IDF construction to model the full-\n23 scale production. The purpose of the test pad is to determine acceptable processing, placement, and\n24 compaction methods that will produce a low-hydraulic conductivity admix liner with an in situ hydraulic\n25 conductivity of 10-7 cm/sec or less. The bentonite percentage and moisture content/density range may be\n26 modified if the preconstruction testing performed on the test pad indicates an in situ hydraulic\n27 conductivity greater than 10-7 cm/sec. Construction QA sampling and testing for the test pad is described\n28 in the Detailed Design Cell 1 Construction QA Plan (CH2M HILL, March 2004).\n29 5.4.3 Freeze/Thaw\n30 Compacted soil liners, such as the IDF admix liner, are known to be vulnerable to large increases in\n31 hydraulic conductivity due to freeze/thaw cycling; current data suggests that compacted soil bentonite\n32 admixtures may not be as vulnerable to damage as true clay liners (Kim and Daniel, 1992; Benson and\n33 Othman, 1993; Kraus et al., 1997). Existing laboratory data indicate that GCLs are less susceptible to\n34 damage from freeze/thaw conditions and therefore, do not undergo increases in hydraulic conductivity\n35 (Hewitt and Daniel, 1997; Kraus et al., 1997).\n36 In order to provide adequate freeze/thaw protection for the admix liner and avoid potential damage to the\n37 GCL a protective soil cover can be used. The thickness of the protective soil cover should exceed the\n38 predicted freeze depth. For the IDF, protective soil cover is provided by the operations layer on the side\n39 slope (3 feet) and the drain gravel and operation layer (4 feet total) on the bottom liner.\n40 The analysis was performed on the IDF lining system operations layer to determine the freeze depth or\n41 frost penetration for a probable freezing season during the 10-year expected period of waste filling.\n42\nAppendix 4A. 1.48\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Both a 10-year return period (90 percent probability on non-exceedance) and 20-year return period (95\n2 percent probability on non-exceedance) air freeze index (AFI) were used to estimate maximum frost\n3 penetration depth in the operations layer. If the maximum frost penetration depth were less than the 3-\n4 foot minimum thickness operations layer over the lining system, the proposed operations layer thickness\n5 would be considered as adequate protection for exposure of the lining system to freeze-thaw cycles.\n6 For the 10-year return AFI, the maximum freeze depth is estimated at 17 inches. For the 20-year return\n7 AFI, the maximum freeze depth is estimated at 21 inches. The maximum estimated freeze depths for both\n8 the 10-year and 20-year return period freezing seasons indicate that the proposed cover soil thicknesses\n9 provide more than adequate protection for the underlying admix liner and GCL from potential damage\n10 when subject to freeze-thaw cycles. Details of the freeze depth calculations are included in\n11 Appendix C.4.\n12 5.5 Geosynthetic Liner Design\n13 5.5.1 Geomembrane Liner Tension Caused By Thermal Contraction\n14 The HDPE geomembrane for IDF lining system will be subject to temperature-induced tensile strain from\n15 expansion/contraction as the geomembrane is exposed to temperature fluctuation.\n16 Strain on the liner was calculated using published values for the coefficient of linear thermal expansion\n17 for HDPE geomembrane (Koerner, 1998) and applying this to the maximum slope length. The maximum\n18 length is measured from the top of the slope, where liner is anchored, to the toe of the 3H:IV side slope.\n19 This is a conservative approach, as using the maximum slope length results in the maximum amount of\n20 expansion and strain on the liner. Additionally, a conservative temperature change of 40 degrees C\n21 (104 degrees F) was used in the analysis.\n22 The maximum liner strain was estimated to be less than 0.5 percent, based on a maximum temperature\n23 change of 40 degrees C (104 degrees F). The estimated maximum of slack in the liner on the side slope is\n24 8.6 inches. The corresponding amount of temperature induced stress is 566 psi. See Appendix C.5.a for\n25 supporting calculations.\n26 As shown in the technical specifications, Section 02661 (Table 1), the elongation at yield for the\n27 geomembrane that will be used in the liner system is at least 12 percent, with a minimum tensile strength\n28 at yield of 2,000 psi. Therefore, the maximum anticipated strains are well below the yield tensile strain\n29 and stress for the HDPE geomembrane, and temperature-induced strain will have no adverse impact on\n30 lining system function.\n31 It should be noted that temperature-induced strain is only applicable during the construction period when\n32 the HDPE geomembrane is exposed to temperature fluctuation. Once covered with 3 to 4 feet of cover\n33 soils (drain gravel and operations layer), the ambient temperature at the surface of the geomembrane will\n34 be more controlled and not subject to fluctuation.\n35 During installation, care must be taken to allow for expansion/contraction of the HDPE geomembrane to\n36 minimize the development of wrinkles that could become future stress points under soil and waste\n37 loading. The technical specifications (see Section 02661) provide requirements for control of wrinkle\n38 development during liner deployment, including the limitation of working when the temperature is below\n39 0 degrees C (32 degrees F) or above 40 degrees C (104 degrees F) without implementing installation\n40 procedures that address the environmental conditions.\n41 5.5.2 Liner System Strain Due To Settlement\n42 The barrier components (geomembrane and GCL) for the IDF lining system will be subject to settlement-\n43 induced tensile strains as the underlying soils, primarily the admix soil liner and the subgrade soil, settle\n44 over time. Strain within the lining system was calculated based on the results of the liner foundation\n45 settlement calculations (see Section 5.3 for settlement of foundation soil [subgrade] and admix liner).\nAppendix 4A. 1.49\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The strain calculation assumed that all vertical settlement was translated into strain along the liner rather\n2 than just the vector component parallel to the liner. This is a conservative assumption that establishes an\n3 upper bound for liner strain.\n4 The maximum liner strain was estimated to be less than 0.6 percent, based on a maximum estimate of\n5 2.7 feet of settlement at the base of the lining system. See Appendix C.5.b for supporting calculations.\n6 As shown the technical specification (Section 02661, Table 1), the elongation at yield for the\n7 geomembrane that will be used in the liner system is at least 12 percent. Based on studies of effect of\n8 differential settlement on GCLs (LaGatta et al., 1997), the limiting strain was defined as the strain in\n9 which an increase in hydraulic conductivity of the GCL was observed, which was taken as 5 percent.\n10 Therefore, the maximum anticipated strains are well below the yield or limiting tensile strain for the\n11 barrier components of the lining system (geomembrane and GCL). Settlement-induced strain from\n12 foundation and admix soil settlement under maximum landfill content pressure will have no adverse\n13 impact on lining system function.\n14 5.5.3 Anchor Trench Pullout Resistance\n15 During construction, the geomembrane could experience pullout forces caused by thermal\n16 expansion/contraction or wind uplift. However, tension from thermal expansion and contraction is\n17 expected to be small (see Section 5.5.1), and the geosynthetics installer can use sand bags or other\n18 approved method to control wind uplift during installation.\n19 After construction and placement of operation layer, the pullout forces on the geomembrane are expected\n20 to be negligible, as there is no tension force on the liner. As indicated in the veneer (side slope) stability\n21 analyses (see Section 5.1.1), the lining system interface strength exceeds the slope angle on the 3H: IV\n22 side slope. Thus, the pullout resistance requirements for the anchor trench are to support the self-weight\n23 of the geomembrane and other lining system components. Analyses for liner self-weight support\n24 requirements determined that the frictional resistance between geosynthetics exceeds the liner self-weight.\n25 Thus, no additional pullout resistance is needed at the anchor trench to support lining system self-weight.\n26 Supporting calculations for the anchor trench design, as shown on Drawing H-2-830838, Detail 3, are\n27 included in Appendix C.5.c. Based on the calculations for the configuration shown in the drawing, a\n28 pullout resistance ranging from 1840 pound/foot (lb/ft) to 2440 lb/ft is estimated (depending on actual\n29 mobilized interface shear strength). The required minimum tensile yield strength for 60-mil HDPE\n30 geomembrane in the technical specifications (see Section 02661) is 1440 lb/ft (120 lb/in), which results in\n31 the estimated pullout resistance exceeding the geomembrane tensile yield strength. This situation is due\n32 primarily to the configuration of the shine berm, which helps to anchor the system. While it is generally\n33 not desired for the pullout resistance to exceed the yield strength, this is not expected to be a problem at\n34 the IDF, since, as discussed above, the potential causes for geomembrane tension have been addressed\n35 and there is not a scenario for mobilizing tensile or pullout forces on the lining system.\n36 5.5.4 Puncture Resistance\n37 The primary geomembrane in the IDF will be overlain by the LCRS. For the side slope lining system, the\n38 LCRS consists of a CDN (see Detail 2 on Drawing H-2-830838) that provides protection for the primary\n39 geomembrane from the overlying operations layer. A separate discussion of the CDN geotextile puncture\n40 resistance is provided in Section 5.7.2. For the bottom lining (floor) system, the LCRS consists of drain\n41 gravel overlying the geomembrane (see Detail I on Drawing H-2-830838). A geotextile cushion will be\n42 required between the drainage gravel and the geomembrane to prevent the gravel from puncturing the\n43 geomembrane. An analysis was performed to determine the weight of the geotextile fabric required to\n44 prevent geomembrane puncture either from operating equipment loads or from the combined static weight\n45 of the waste and final cover.\n46\nAppendix 4A.1.50\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Koerner (1998) developed a method for estimating required geotextile thickness that considers the size\n2 and shape of the rock, as well as other factors that could decrease the long-term strength of the\n3 geomembrane. The equation used to determine puncture resistance is based on the mass per unit area of\n4 the geotextile and the protrusion height of the puncturing material.\n5 Operating loads were estimated based on a melter transport trailer operating directly on the surface of the\n6 first operations layer. Static loads were estimated for the post-closure condition by using the weight of\n7 four layers of ILAW packages with cover soil and a 15-foot-thick closure cover, with a 2 percent grade to\n8 the center of the landfill. The static load was more than two times greater than the operating load, and\n9 therefore was used as the basis for the puncture analysis. Detail calculations for geomembrane puncture\n10 resistance and corresponding cushion geotextile requirements are included in Appendix C.5.d.\n11 The proposed design specifies that the LCRS drainage gravel will have a gradation corresponding to\n12 WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.12(4). This gradation has a maximum stone size of I inch. From\n13 the curves shown in the detailed calculations, the FS for a 12 oz/yd2 geotextile loaded by 1-inch angular\n14 rock is 4.5. For subrounded rock or gravel, this is more representative of the specified drain gravel, the\n15 FS increases to 8.9. The specified cushion geotextile (see technical specifications, Section 02371) has a\n16 nominal weight of 12 oz/sq yd, and therefore should be adequate to prevent geomembrane puncture.\n17 Koerner (1998) recommends a FS greater than 3.0 for the condition of packed stones on a geomembrane,\n18 such as would be the case for drain gravel over the geomembrane at the IDF.\n19 5.5.5 Operational/Equipment Loading\n20 The effects of loading on the GCL from construction and operational equipment and activities were\n21 examined. The maximum loads from the landfill waste itself were found to produce the highest loading\n22 on the geomembrane and the CDN; these materials were selected based on this maximum loading, as\n23 discussed in the previous sections.\n24 The cases for construction equipment loading and operational loading on the GCL were examined,\n25 including the extreme loading case of the crane placing the heaviest waste loads at its maximum reach, a\n26 situation which produces very high pad loads. The expected loads were compared to the calculated\n27 allowable GCL bearing capacity to determine if the loads would have an effect on the GCL. The\n28 allowable GCL bearing capacity was determined from classical geotechnical theory and based on\n29 manufacturer's strength data.\n30 The results of the analyses are presented in detail in Appendix C.5.e. For the construction loading, the\n31 analyses show that the specification requirements that limit construction loading are adequate to protect\n32 the GCL, based on the standard construction equipment anticipated to be used at the IDF and as examined\n33 in the calculations.\n34 For the operational loading cases examined, the critical condition is the crane operating under an extreme\n35 condition. The minimum dunnage requirement for the crane pads is 60 square feet, or if square, a 7.7-foot\n36 by 7.7-foot dunnage pad. Lower loads will require less dunnage and can be calculated as detailed in\n37 Appendix C.5.e. As discussed in the appendix, dunnage requirements calculated in this way are\n38 appropriate as long as the lining system is functioning as intended (i.e., no moisture in the LDS). If\n39 moisture enters the LDS and the GCL becomes hydrated, the dunnage requirements will be increased by a\n40 factor of approximately 2.5.\n41 It should also be noted that the primary purpose of the GCL in the IDF is not as a required lining system\n42 component (such as the geomembrane or the admix liner), but to \"deflect\" leachate from defects or\n43 pinholes in the primary geomembrane over the bottom area and longer-term storage areas (such as\n44 leachate sump trough), where the leachate head potential is greatest. The primary purpose of the primary\n45 GCL is to reduce the actual leakage rate into the LDS in the event of leak in the primary geomembrane.\n46 Given these considerations, the GCL should perform as intended under anticipated equipment and\n47 operational loading.\nAppendix 4A.1.51\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI As the operations plans for the landfill are developed, loading values can be compared to the results\n2 shown in Appendix C.5.e to determine if the loads will affect the GCL.\n3 5.6 Liner Systems/Leachate Compatibility\n4 The purpose of this analysis is to demonstrate that the liner materials proposed for the IDF landfill are\n5 chemically compatible with the leachate. Certain materials deteriorate over time when exposed to\n6 chemicals that may be contained in hazardous leachate. It is important to anticipate the type and quality\n7 of the leachate that the landfill will generate and select compatible liner materials. Data collected from\n8 other similar low-level radioactive mixed waste and hazardous waste sites were used in conjunction with\n9 the anticipated IDF leachate concentrations to evaluate the allowable concentration of leachate\n10 constituents that could be in contact with the IDF landfill liner components.\n11 5.6.1 Lining System Description\n12 Detailed discussion of the lining system design elements is provided in Section 6. A summary is\n13 provided in this section to facilitate discussion with respect to the chemical and radiation resistance of the\n14 lining system components.\n15 Drawing H-2-830838 (Detail 1) shows the bottom liner section consisting of the following components,\n16 from top to bottom:\n17 * A 3-foot-thick operations layer\n18 * A separation geotextile (polypropylene)\n19 * A 1-foot-thick leachate gravel layer\n20 * A minimum 12 oz/square yard cushion geotextile (polypropylene)\n21 * A 60-mil (nominal thickness-see Section 6.3.2.1) textured primary HDPE geomembrane\n22 * An internally-reinforced GCL\n23 * A CDN drainage layer for primary leak detection/collection\n24 * A 60-mil textured secondary HDPE geomembrane\n25 * A 3-foot-thick low-hydraulic conductivity compacted admix (soil-bentonite) liner\n26 For the bottom lining system, both the primary and secondary liners are a composite (geomembrane over\n27 admix liner or GCL) system. The addition of a GCL in the primary liner layer provides an extra measure\n28 of protection, exceeding the requirements of WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(i), which stipulates a single\n29 geomembrane for the primary liner and composite for the secondary only. This will provide an extra\n30 measure of protection on the bottom flatter slopes of the IDF, where higher leachate head levels are more\n31 likely.\n32 Drawing H-2-830838 (Detail 2) shows the side slope liner section consisting of the following\n33 components, from top to bottom:\n34 * A 3-foot-thick operations layer\n35 * A CDN drainage layer for primary leachate collection\n36 * A 60-mil textured primary HDPE geomembrane\n37 * A CDN drainage layer for primary leak detection/collection\n38 * A 60-mil textured secondary HDPE geomembrane\n39 * A 3-ft-thick low-hydraulic conductivity admix liner\n40 The side slope lining system is a single geomembrane liner over a composite liner, meeting the\n41 requirements of WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(i). The 3H:IV side slopes for the IDF will result in little or no\n42 leachate head build-up on the side slope lining system, thus eliminating the need for a lining system\n43 design that exceeds the WAC requirements.\nAppendix 4A. 1.52\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI In general, the liner system consists of two types of materials, geosynthetics and soil/bentonite mixtures\n2 (admix). The geomembranes, geotextiles, and CDN are manufactured from polymeric materials, such as\n3 HDPE, and polypropylene, made from synthetic polymers. The GCL consists of a bentonite layer\n4 sandwiched between two polypropylene geotextiles to assist in placement and construction. The admix\n5 liner is comprised mainly of silt to clay-sized particles, mixed with a silty sand base soil.\n6 5.6.2 Leachate Characterization Assumptions\n7 Several assumptions were made regarding the composition of the leachate concentrations and the\n8 applicability of previously conducted studies for this evaluation. Specifically, the studies considered\n9 directly applicable to this evaluation were:\n10 * Geosynthetic and Soil Liner/Leachate Compatibility Studies for the W-025 Radioactive Mixed\n11 Waste Landfill in Hanford 200 West (Golder Associates, 1991a and 1991b; TRI, 1995; and\n12 WHC, 1995)\n13 * Liner/Leachate Compatibility Study for the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National\n14 Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL) Comprehensive Environmental Response,\n15 Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) Disposal Facility (ICDF) (DOE-ID, 2002).\n16 Using these studies is considered appropriate for the following reasons:\n17 * The leachate for the IDF is expected to have similar or lower concentrations of radionuclides than\n18 that used in the W025 facility study (since similar waste streams [other than ILAW] may be\n19 accepted).\n20 * The leachate chemistry may be of similar composition to the W025 facility study (since similar\n21 waste streams [other than ILAW] may be accepted).\n22 * Soils used in the W025 facility admix design are similar to those that will be used in the IDF\n23 admix design and will therefore be compatible.\n24 * Similar technical specifications for the geosynthetics and admix liner used in the W025 facility\n25 design will be used in the IDF landfill design.\n26 * A similar technical specification for a GCL used in the ICDF facility will be used in the IDF liner\n27 design.\n28 5.6.2.1 Synthetic Leachate Concentrations for W-025 Landfill\n29 The leachate generated for the W025 evaluation reflects both the waste materials and the stabilization\n30 agents used during waste preparation. Because the landfill will comply with waste acceptance criteria for\n31 WAC dangerous waste and RCRA facilities (as does the IDF), organic materials are not expected to be\n32 present in the waste after processing. The proposed geosynthetic materials are susceptible to damage\n33 from certain organic compounds but generally are not susceptible to damage from inorganic compounds,\n34 even with extreme pH values. As a result, the lack of organic materials results in a relatively benign\n35 leachate.\n36 The source leachate generated for the W025 studies, was primarily based on the waste treatment and\n37 packaging approaches for W025. An aqueous solution of inorganic, with some organic compounds for\n38 conservative evaluation, was generated, resulting in a viscous, slurry-like mixture. This mixture was\n39 placed in a leaching column, and deionized water was introduced to simulate the effects of leachate\n40 generation. Although no organic components were anticipated in the waste, small quantities of benzene,\n41 methanol, and light machine oil were included to simulate the presence of organic compounds in the\n42 waste material.\n43 The source leachate generated through the leachate column process was chemically analyzed with the\n44 following results:\nAppendix 4A.1.53\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Concentrations of organics benzene and machine oil were below detection limits. Concentrations\n2 of methanol were detected, but at concentrations not considered aggressive for polyester or\n3 HDPE.\n4 * Metals added to the waste were below the detection limits in the source leachate.\n5 * Primary constituents of the source leachate were sodium cations and common inorganic anions,\n6 with a pH of 9.2.\n7 * Based on these results, a synthetic leachate was generated for testing purposes. The source\n8 leachate formula resulted in a solution with total inorganics and dissolved salts of approximately\n9 204,000 mg/L and pH of 9.2 using NaOH or HNO3, as required.\n10 5.6.2.2 Simulated Irradiation Exposure for W-025 Landfill\n11 Samples used to evaluate the effects of radiation were subjected to a 50,000-rad total dose of gamma\n12 radiation. This dose is expected to exceed the maximum level of radiation experienced by geosynthetic\n13 materials in the landfill under unfavorable conditions. Use of a total dose, rather than radiation type, is\n14 considered the primary factor causing damage to polymeric materials and is considered to adequately\n15 simulate actual IDF leachate conditions. Samples and leachate were irradiated together so that any\n16 synergistic effects would be seen. The following samples were included in the irradiation testing:\n17 * Geomembrane\n18 * Geotextile\n19 * Geonet\n20 * Admix (soil/bentonite mixture)\n21 The synthetic leachate and radiation exposure developed from the W-025 studies were used as the basis of\n22 evaluation for the IDF lining system materials. Table 5-2 provides a comparison of the leachate\n23 concentrations for the W-025 project with other studies for which the U.S. Environmental Protection\n24 Agency (EPA) Test Method 9090 were performed on the lining system.\n25 The ICDF project did not include EPA 9090 tests, however, a model for estimating leachate concentration\n26 based on the waste acceptance criteria for the project was developed. The maximum leachate\n27 concentrations and radiation exposure developed for the ICDF (DOE-ID, 2002) based on the anticipated\n28 waste design inventory were as follows:\n29 * Organics-70 mg/1\n30 * Inorganics-18,400 mg/l\n31 * Radiation Exposure-12,000 rads\n32 Table 5-2.

EPA Test Method 9090 \"Compatibility Test for Wastes and Membrane Liners\" (EPA, 1992c).\nI A review of the studies presented in Table 5-2 leads to the conclusion that the inorganic concentration\n2 developed for the W025 is somewhat conservative as it significantly higher than inorganic concentrations\n3 developed for the ICDF facilities. Other than the W-025 landfill, the ICDF is estimated to be most\n4 similar to the waste type to be received at the IDF of the studies included in Table 5-2. Nonetheless, the\n5 liner/leachate compatibility study for the IDF is based on the W025 synthetic leachate. Further analysis\n6 of the applicability of these leachate concentrations is recommended, if the conservative nature of this\n7 synthetic leachate requires costly revisions to the lining system to demonstrate compatibility.\n8 5.6.3 Chemical and Radiation Resistance\n9 Leachate will be generated from precipitation events and from water added to the waste for dust control\n10 and compaction purposes during operations. In reality, as the landfill nears the end of its operational life,\n11 concentrations of contaminants will decrease with time as the leachable waste mass is reduced. During\n12 the post-closure period, a robust landfill cover will significantly reduce infiltration, and the corresponding\n13 volume of leachate. Soluble contaminants leached from the waste will come in contact with the landfill\n14 bottom liner system during the operation period (approximately 10 years for each of the four planned\n15 phases) and minimum post closure period (30 years). The geosynthetics and admix lining system\n16 components may be in contact with soluble contaminants as long as contaminants are present in the\n17 landfill.\n18 The expected chemical make up of the leachate for the IDF landfill was determined based on previously\n19 conducted compatibility studies (as discussed above) applicable to the same waste stream (the W025\n20 studies), summarized as follows.\n21 5.6.3.1 Geomembrane\n22 HDPE geomembranes can deteriorate from contact with certain leachates, resulting in a decrease of\n23 elongation at failure, an increase in modulus of elasticity, a decrease in the stress at failure, and a loss of\n24 ductility.\n25 Studies performed on polymer materials like HDPE show that their properties begin to change after\n26 absorbing ionizing radiation between 1,000,000 to 10,000,000 rads (Koerner et al., 1990). The HDPE\n27 geomembrane lining the bottom of the landfill will absorb ionizing radiation energy from the leachate\n28 generated in the landfill. Energy will be absorbed during the operational life of the landfill, as long as\n29 there are liquids with ionizing radionuclides in contact with the geomembranes.\n30 Relevant compatibility studies on HDPE geomembranes have been performed for the W-025 Landfill\n31 (Golder, 1991a; TRI, 1995; WHC, 1995). The results of these studies indicate that a HDPE\n32 geomembrane will function well as a liner beneath the landfill waste.\nAppendix 4A.1.55\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 EPA Method 9090 tests performed on HDPE geomembrane for the W-025 landfill, using the synthetic\n2 leachate solution (assumed representative of IDF leachate concentrations) resulted in no evidence of\n3 geomembrane deterioration. A comparison between the anticipated IDF landfill leachate\n4 (W-025 Landfill) and that used in compatibility tests for other facilities is summarized in Table 5-2.\n5 Geomembrane samples tested for the W-025 facility did not produce measurable changes in the HDPE\n6 liner properties when irradiated for 120 days with a total dose of 50,000 rads. HDPE geomembranes are\n7 manufactured with additives, such as carbon black and antioxidants, to improve ductility and durability.\n8 The literature also indicates that these additives allow higher doses than standard HDPE material without\n9 additives (Kircher and Bowman, 1964). The literature indicates that thin films (i.e., 0.002 inches) of\n10 different types of HDPE material alone can become brittle when irradiated at doses between 4,400,000\n11 and 78,000,000 rads. Studies performed using polymer materials, with carbon black and antioxidant\n12 additives, show that properties typically begin to change at a total radiation dose of between 1,000,000\n13 and 10,000,000 rads (Koerner et al., 1990).\n14 The manufacturers of the geosynthetic products proposed for the IDF landfill have published maximum\n15 allowable concentrations of various chemical compounds that can contact the HDPE geomembrane\n16 without adversely affecting its performance. The most recent recommended maximum concentrations of\n17 chemicals were obtained from the manufacturers of HDPE geomembrane (meeting the requirements for\n18 the IDF technical specifications). A list of the manufacturers' maximum allowable concentrations for\n19 specific leachate constituents for HDPE geomembrane and the GCL materials is shown on Table 5-3.\n20 5.6.3.2 Geosynthetic Clay Liner (GCL)\n21 The GCL underlying the geomembrane in the IDF landfill consists of processed sodium bentonite clay,\n22 sandwiched between two geotextile fabrics. Sodium bentonite is an ore comprised mainly of the\n23 montmorillonite clay mineral with broad, flat, negatively charged platelets that attract water, which\n24 hydrates the bentonite. The swelling provides the ability to seal around penetrations, giving the GCL its\n25 self-healing properties. A GCL product with Volclay-type sodium bentonite (manufactured by CETCO)\n26 is specified for installation at the landfill.\n27 The compatibility of GCL materials is usually demonstrated by permeating the material with leachate and\n28 then determining its hydraulic conductivity. Typically, solutions with high concentrations of\n29 contaminants or pure products are allowed to permeate a sample under confining pressure and the\n30 saturated hydraulic conductivity of the material is determined using ASTM methods such as ASTM\n31 D5084. A significant increase in saturated hydraulic conductivity (approximately one order of\n32 magnitude) for a sample permeated with leachate, compared with a sample permeated with water, would\n33 be an indicator of incompatibility.\n34 Based on review of the published studies (Ruhl and Daniel, 1997; Shackelford, et al., 2000; and EPA,\n35 1995), GCLs perform well unless exposed to high concentrations of divalent cations, very acidic or basic\n36 solutions, or solutions with a low dielectric constant (such as gasoline). The leachate expected at the IDF\n37 will have a pH of 9.2, which is a mid-range pH. The studies further demonstrate that, when confined\n38 under a higher normal load (greater than 2000 psf) or if water is the first wetting liquid (Daniel et al.,\n39 1997), GCLs will perform well when exposed to high divalent cation concentrations. The GCL for the\n40 IDF lining system is expected to confine under normal loads in excess of 2000 psf as soon as the first lift\n41 or waste is placed.\n42 No studies were identified that considered the long-term effects of radiation on the physical properties of\n43 GCL materials. Since long-term studies cannot be conducted, conservative radiation limitations have\n44 been employed. Low-hydraulic conductivity soils have been used at multiple DOE facilities containing\n45 radioactive waste. The only known potential adverse reaction that can occur with a GCL is high heat that\n46 could dry out the materials. The amount of radioactivity is expected to be low in the IDF landfill waste\n47 and will not generate a significant amount of heat that can desiccate the admix liner. Also, it is assumed\n48 that the ILAW packages will be cooled to ambient temperatures prior to placement with the cell.\nAppendix 4A.1.56\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI It should be noted that the operations layer and drain gravel will provide a 3-foot buffer on the side slope\n2 and a 4-foot buffer between the liner system and waste for additional thermal protection, if needed.\n3 Sodium bentonite is the primary clay mineral in a GCL that produces the low hydraulic conductivity and\n4 high swell potential. Exposure of sodium bentonite to liquids containing concentrated salts (such as\n5 brines), or divalent cation concentrations (such as Ca++ and Mg++), reduces the swelling potential and\n6 increases its hydraulic conductivity. Concentrated organic solutions (such as hydrocarbons) and strong\n7 acids and bases can break down the soil, which also increases hydraulic conductivity. The physical\n8 mechanism that causes these changes is a reduction of the thickness, and related absorption capacity, of\n9 the diffuse double layer of water molecules surrounding the clay minerals. This results in an effective\n10 decrease in the volume of the clay, since the water molecules are not attracted to the clay particles.\n11 The GCL manufacturer allows the use of GCL with few restrictions on maximum chemical\n12 concentrations. Leachate concentrations for the IDF landfill (based on synthetic leachate from W025)\n13 have relatively high inorganics and dissolved salts. The W025 dissolved salt concentrations are above the\n14 manufacturers recommended concentration of 35,000 mg/L (see Table 5-3) (CETCO, 2001). As a point\n15 of reference, this concentration of dissolved salts is typical of seawater (USGS, 1989). However, the\n16 dissolved salt concentrations in the IDF leachate have been characterized as primarily sodium, and the\n17 synthetic leachate was comprised of entirely sodium salts, not the divalent cations such as Ca++ and\n18 Mg++, as assumed by the manufacturers. As such, the impact on GCL hydraulic conductivity should be\n19 less as compared to divalent cation solutions. Additionally, any effects of leachate degradation on the\n20 GCL would be minimized by hydration of the GCLs' sodium bentonite with relatively \"fresh\" water,\n21 allowing the GCL to swell initially and decrease hydraulic conductivity.\n22 The rationale for use of the GCL in the IDF landfill primary liner is to \"deflect\" leachate from defects or\n23 pinholes in the geomembrane over the bottom area and longer-term storage areas (such as the leachate\n24 sump trough), where leachate head potential is greatest. The main purpose of the primary GCL is to\n25 reduce the actual leakage rate into the LDS in the event of leak in the primary geomembrane (see\n26 Section 5.10 and Appendix C.10). The GCL is expected to contact leachate only in the event of a leak in\n27 the primary geomembrane. These leachate collection and storage areas are subject to flushing throughout\n28 the active life of the landfill due to phased development and fill sequence, resulting in a more dilute\n29 leachate in leakage areas prior to attaining maximum leachate concentrations. Based on these\n30 considerations, the GCL and landfill liner system approach should perform as intended under the\n31 anticipated conditions.\n32 5.6.3.3 Admix Liner\n33 The admix layer consists of onsite silty sand mixed with processed bentonite amendment, similar to that\n34 used in the construction of GCLs. The swelling of sodium bentonite provides the ability to seal around\n35 soil particles, giving the admix a low hydraulic conductivity and self-healing properties. The\n36 compatibility of the admix layer with anticipated irradiation and leachate concentrations were evaluated\n37 previously as part of the W025 landfill design (Golder Associates, 1991b). The following summarizes the\n38 results of the compatibility testing for the admix layer that are directly applicable to the IDF landfill\n39 admix liner, since similar materials will be used in construction. More detailed discussion of the IDF\n40 admix liner design is provided in Section 5.4.\n41 In the W025 study, samples of the admix were irradiated, similar to that conducted for the geomembrane\n42 layer, as discussed previously. Differences between irradiated and non-irradiated samples were not\n43 considered significant based on the results of testing.\n44 The initial W025 admix design contained approximately 8 percent bentonite clay. Testing indicated an\n45 acceptable hydraulic conductivity of this admix after hydration in fresh water. However, when hydrated\n46 in leachate, some hydraulic conductivity test values were twice the allowable limit and, therefore, this\n47 admix formulation was not considered acceptable. This is the same leachate chemistry assumed for the\n48 IDF landfill.\nAppendix 4A.1.57\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI It should be noted that there are two factors not considered in the W025 compatibility study (Golder\n2 Associates, 199 1b) that would mitigate the impact of the synthetic leachate on the 8 percent admix\n3 samples, as listed below:\n4 Effective stress for samples-hydraulic conductivity tests were performed with effective stresses of 5-10\n5 psi across sample (equivalent to less than one full lift of ILAW packages). It is well documented that\n6 higher effective stresses will lower hydraulic conductivity and mitigate the effects of shrinking/cracking\n7 in clay under attack from chemicals. In reality, by the time any leachate contacts the lining system, there\n8 will be a substantial stress load on the liner that will mitigate the impacts of chemicals in leachate on the\n9 admix liner.\n10 First wetting liquid-W025 tests were performed using both site water and synthetic leachate as the\n11 initial wetting fluid. It is well documented that if a clay soil is \"attacked\" by inorganics prior to\n12 saturation, the increase in hydraulic conductivity will be more dramatic than if water is first permeant.\n13 This was confirmed by W025 testing-there was an order of magnitude difference between samples with\n14 water as first wetting liquid as opposed to leachate. It is reasonable to expect something closer to water\n15 than concentrated leachate will be the first wetting liquid for the IDF admix liner.\n16 Due to the results in the W025 testing showing greater than acceptable hydraulic conductivity in the\n17 admix when exposed to the W025 synthetic leachate, the bentonite percentage was increased from 8 to\n18 12 percent. An admix containing 12 percent bentonite clay was permeated with synthetic leachate and\n19 tested with a resulting hydraulic conductivity that was 3 to 10 times lower than the maximum allowable\n20 limit (10-7 cm/sec). This admix formulation was considered acceptable with respect to W025 leachate\n21 compatibility and is applicable to the IDF. Thus, the technical specifications (see Section 02666) require\n22 a nominal 12 percent (range from 11 to 14 percent is acceptable) bentonite by weight for the admix liner.\n23 Consideration should be given to lowering the bentonite percentage upon further characterization of the\n24 IDF leachate and applicability of the mitigating factors discussed above.\n25 5.6.3.4 Other Materials\n26 Other materials for which compatibility needs to be addressed are the CDN and geotextiles (cushion,\n27 separation, and bonded to geonet of CDN). While these materials do not serve a barrier function, they\n28 provide either for removal of leachate or protection of the lining system and must continue to function\n29 when exposed to leachate.\n30 During the W025 design, the effect of the synthetic leachate on the geonet core of the CDN and the\n31 geotextiles was evaluated (Golder Associates, 1991 a). The study concluded that a geonet core comprised\n32 of HDPE provided adequate chemical and radiation resistance. For geotextiles, the study concluded that\n33 geotextiles made of polyester fabric were susceptible to degradation and recommended that geotextile\n34 material be limited to a more chemically resistant material such as polypropylene. The technical\n35 specifications for the IDF require that geotextiles be made from polypropylene (see Section 02371); thus,\n36 the geotextiles used for the IDF should have adequate chemical and radiation resistance.\n37 Table 5-3.

Based on synthetic leachate formula for W-025\n4 d. Strong acids, bases, or oxidizing compounds were not identified in the W-025 compatibility studies.\n5 5.7 Drainage Layer\n6 The drainage layer for the LCRS consists of three components: the separation geotextile, the CDN, and\n7 the drainage gravel. Analyses for the drainage layer required evaluation of these components.\n8 5.7.1 Geotextile Analyses (Separation)\n9 Analyses were preformed to verify that a separation geotextile between the operations layer and leachate\n10 collection drain gravel is required by evaluating natural graded filter criteria for these materials. Results\n11 indicated that natural filter criteria could not be achieved, thus a separation geotextile is required between\n12 the operations layer and drain gravel. Supporting natural filter calculations are included in\n13 Appendix C.6.a.\n14 Analyses were conducted to determine the proper apparent opening size (AOS) and permittivity of the\n15 separation geotextile. Required AOS and permittivity were determined based on filter, fines retention,\n16 and clogging potential criteria. Results of these analyses were used to develop the technical specifications\n17 for the separation geotextile (see Section 02371). Supporting geotextile filter calculations are also\n18 included in Appendix C.6.A.\n19 5.7.2 CDN Selection\n20 The CDN selection was based on analysis of two design issues, CDN geotextile puncture resistance and\n21 CDN required transmissivity.\n22 5.7.2.1 CDN Geotextile Puncture Resistance\n23 The LCRS CDN layer at the IDF will be overlain by the operations layer on the 3H: IV side slope. The\n24 operations layer is allowed to contain a particle size up to 2 inches in dimension. An analysis was\n25 performed to determine if the geotextile bonded to geonet (to form the CDN) would be punctured by\n26 particles/rocks of this size.\n27 The method developed by Koerner (1998) was used to calculate the puncture resistance. Koerner's\n28 method considers the size and shape of the rock, as well as other factors that could decrease the long-term\n29 strength of the geotextile. The two loading conditions examined were initial placement of the operations\n30 layer and the final depth of waste and closure cover. The geomembrane puncture resistance analysis (see\n31 Section 5.5.4) provides the details for the load analysis for these conditions. Detailed calculations for\n32 CDN geotextile puncture resistance and corresponding cushion geotextile requirements are included in\n33 Appendix C.6.bl.\n34 Results of the analyses indicate that the required puncture resistance is 11.2 lbs. The minimum specified\n35 value for Type I geotextile (see technical specifications, Section 02371) is 65 lbs. Applying a partial\n36 safety factor of 2 gives a minimum resistance of 32.5 lbs. Therefore, the proposed geotextile bonded to\n37 the geonet of the CDN will resist puncture with a global safety factor of 2.9; it is adequate for resistance\n38 to puncture from the overlying operations layer under the pressure of maximum landfill contents pressure.\n39 Koerner (1998) recommends a minimum global safety factor of 2.0.\n40 It should be noted that the results of this analysis are considered conservative because the analytical\n41 method assumes only a uniform particle size and does not take the surrounding soil matrix into\n42 consideration. This would effectively reduce the particle size by a considerable degree.\n43 5.7.2.2 CDN Required Transmissivity\n44 An additional selection criteria for the CDN is the required transmissivity (or flow rate) under design\n45 loading conditions. For the IDF two cases require analysis:\nAppendix 4A.1.59\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI LDS CDN on bottom and side slope-For this case, the critical condition is to ensure that the\n2 transmissivity as required by WAC and EPA regulations (3 x 10-5 m2/sec) under the maximum load from\n3 the landfill contents can be achieved.\n4 LCRS CDN on side slope only-There are actually two loading conditions for the LCRS CDN on the side\n5 slope. One is the open slope condition with operations layer only over the CDN, which is a low normal\n6 load (1,000 psf) condition. The second is in the filled condition, which is a high normal load (15,000 psf)\n7 condition. Based on the results of leachate production analyses using the Hydrologic Evaluation of\n8 Landfill Performance (HELP) model (see Section 5.8), the required transmissivity for the LCRS CDN is\n9 6.5 x 10-5 m2/sec for the open slope condition and 1 x 10-5 m2/sec for the filled condition.\n10 For each case, the approach was to compare the required transmissivity to typical manufacturer's data\n11 with test conditions (i.e., normal load and material boundary), similar to the design conditions. The\n12 allowable transmissivity (<p) was determined using guidance provided by GRI standard GC-8 (2001),\n13 Determination of the Allowable Flow Rate of a Drainage Geocomposite. The GRI-GC8 standard uses the\n14 following equation:\n15 (Pallow 9100 hr test/Reduction Factors for intrusion, creep, chemical clogging and biological clogging\n16 The FS for design was then determined as follows:\n17 FS (Pallow/(Prequired\n18 Transmissivity data for the 100-hour test data was obtained from the manufacturer for both 200-mil and\n19 250-mil thickness CDN for normal loads of both 1,000 psf and 15,000 psf. Test data was provided for a\n20 number of boundary conditions including flow tests between a geomembrane and a soil, as would be the\n21 case for the LCRS or LDS CDN. Test data used as the basis for the analyses are included with the\n22 calculations presented in Appendix C.6.b2.\n23 Based on the analyses, a higher flow, thicker (250-mil minimum) CDN is required, due to the reduction of\n24 flow under the high normal loads in the final filling configuration. The technical specifications (see\n25 Section 02373) provide the required index values for the geonet core of the CDN as well as the CDN\n26 itself (with geotextile bonded to both sides of the geonet), based on the results of this analysis. The\n27 transmissivity requirements in the technical specifications are index values and not in-service condition\n28 values, as determined in this analysis. These index values are representative of testing that manufacturers\n29 typically perform in production and are correlated to design conditions using the approach outlined in\n30 GRI GC-8.\n31 5.7.3 Drainage Gravel Selection\n32 Section 02315 (Fill and Backfill) in the technical specifications requires that drain gravel meets the\n33 requirements of WSDOT 9-03.12(4) for gradation. The technical specifications also require a\n34 performance specification for a hydraulic conductivity greater or equal to 10-1 cm/sec.\n35 Hydraulic conductivity of the specified drain gravel was estimated using two different empirical\n36 relationships. The most relevant of the two estimates a minimum hydraulic conductivity of I cm/sec,\n37 based on the specified gradation curve for WSDOT Gravel Backfill for Drains (9-03.12[4]). Supporting\n38 calculations are included in Appendix C.6.c.\n39 The minimum estimated hydraulic conductivity for the drain gravel exceeds the required (by WAC and\n40 EPA regulations) hydraulic conductivity of 10-2 cm/sec by a factor or 100 to 1,000, and the performance\n41 specification hydraulic conductivity of 10-1 cm/sec by a factor of 10 to 100. This exceedance makes an\n42 allowance for two items: (1) it allows for the uncertainty in the empirical formulas used to predict\n43 hydraulic conductivity, and (2) it also allows for the potential long-term reduction in hydraulic\n44 conductivity in the drain gravel as fines from waste filling and the operations layer migrate into the gravel\n45 over time.\nAppendix 4A.1.60\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 As part of Construction QA, testing it is recommended that samples of imported drain gravel be tested for\n2 conformance with the gradation and hydraulic conductivity requirements in the technical specifications.\n3 5.8 Leachate Production\n4 5.8.1 Leachate Production Analyses\n5 Estimates of the amount of leachate produced during the development and operation of the IDF were\n6 needed to design the components of the leachate collection and conveyance system described in Section\n7 5.9, and to provide information necessary when evaluating slope stability of the side slope and bottom\n8 liner systems. Leachate is produced when precipitation falls within the lined area and infiltrates vertically\n9 through the waste and/or bottom liner system. The amount of infiltration estimated to occur depends on\n10 the hydrologic processes and the relative fraction of precipitation that results as leachate and is collected\n11 by the leachate collection system.\n12 The water balance components of the hydrologic process were estimated using EPA's Hydrologic\n13 Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) Model (Schroeder et. al., 1997), a well known standard for\n14 water balance modeling. The HELP model has been widely used for evaluating hydrologic conditions\n15 and is the standard model used for providing information necessary for the design of landfill systems.\n16 Estimates of the water balance components of the hydrologic cycle provided by HELP include\n17 precipitation, evapotranspiration, surface water runoff, vertical percolation, soil moisture storage, and\n18 lateral drainage in soil layers.\n19 The HELP model requires input of weather data, representing the conditions at the landfill location, soils\n20 data representing the various layers of cover soils, waste materials, and soils underlying the waste layers,\n21 and other design data used by the model for water balance calculations. A detailed description of the\n22 model and modeling inputs are included in Appendix C.7.\n23 The development of the IDF from Phase I through Phase IV was considered to determine the maximum\n24 flow condition expected during development and operation of the landfill. That is, various combinations\n25 of open and interim closed phases were considered and the combination calculated to produce the\n26 maximum amount of leachate was chosen for analysis. The chosen combination was Phase I through III\n27 under interim closure condition and Phase IV in the open condition with little or no waste present. The\n28 flows from this condition were used to size the LCRS collection piping and pump systems.\n29 Water balance components were taken directly from model output and a spreadsheet was used to calculate\n30 the volumes of leachate by multiplying the HELP output parameter by the area of the type of system\n31 modeled. For example, the lateral drainage estimated by the HELP model for the uncovered side slope\n32 condition in Phase IV development was multiplied by the total side slope area to determine the total\n33 volume of leachate from that area. A spreadsheet summarizing the estimated leachate flows is included in\n34 Appendix C.7.\n35 The following modeling results were used for various aspects of design of the IDF systems:\n36 LCRS collection system-Modeling results for the peak day event were used to size the leachate\n37 collection system piping that conveys flow to the LCRS systems. The peak day event, as predicted by\n38 HELP and referenced herein, was a 1.6-inch precipitation event. This event is approximately 25 percent\n39 higher than the 25 year, 24 hour peak day storm event of 1.28 inches (Appendix C.9), required by\n40 regulations to be used when complying with the maximum 12 inches of head over the liner\n41 (WAC 173-303-665, see Section 2). The spacing of the LCRS perforated collection piping and the\n42 properties of the drain gravel material that convey lateral drainage flows above the bottom liner\n43 geomembrane to the collection piping and LCRS sump area were checked to insure the maximum head\n44 buildup above the sump area of the liner system did not exceed the maximum allowed according to\n45 regulatory requirements, as outlined in Section 2.\n46 LCRS pump and forcemain systems-Modeling results for the peak day event were used to size the\n47 LCRS high flow pump system that conveys flow to the leachate storage tanks and truck loadout facilities.\nAppendix 4A.1.61\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Average monthly flow rates plus one standard deviation (resulting in a conservatively-high expected flow\n2 rate) was used to design the LCRS low flow pump system for pumping from the IDF during average\n3 monthly conditions.\n4 Leachate Collection Storage-Volumes for the peak day event and assumptions for the operational rate\n5 of removal of leachate from the tanks were used to size the storage tanks. Storage tank sizing is described\n6 in Section 5.9.2.2.\n7 Liner system material properties and stability analyses-The lateral drainage layers of the side slope\n8 and bottom liner systems were checked to insure the transmissivity of the layers was sufficient to convey\n9 lateral flows and maintain less than the maximum head buildup over the liner system. The seepage height\n10 above the liner was used when checking the liner system for veneer stability.\n11 5.9 Leachate Collection System\n12 5.9.1 Earth Loading Analyses\n13 5.9.1.1 Leachate System Loading Analyses for Piping within Phase I Liner Limits\n14 Loading over the leachate system piping include all layers of soil materials, wastes, and anticipated traffic\n15 loading. The maximum loading occurs over the piping in the LCRS and LDS sump area, because of its\n16 low elevation and the height of material-both waste and soil layers-overlying the sumps. Loading\n17 calculations from the geosynthetic liner puncture resistance calculations described in Section 5.5.4 were\n18 modified to represent the maximum loading in the LCRS/LDS sump area. Other pipes in the Phase I\n19 area, including piping outside the sump and the side slope riser piping, will be subjected to less than the\n20 maximum loading. The maximum loading is listed in Appendix C.8.a, along with the calculations for\n21 pipe sizing required to withstand this anticipated pipe loading.\n22 Pipe wall thickness was selected based on the maximum loading anticipated in the sump area such that\n23 the pipe will not fail due to excessive deflection, wall buckling, or wall crushing. All other piping in\n24 Phase I outside of the sump area was chosen with the same standard dimension ratio (SDR) to withstand\n25 the maximum load. Standard analysis methods, as recommended by the manufacturer of HDPE pipe\n26 made from PE3408 type resin, were used to evaluate pipe strength under loading. These standard\n27 methods are based on flexible pipe design practice as applied to HDPE piping. The manufacturer's\n28 recommended design analysis techniques are based on standard analysis techniques, including the Iowa\n29 formula (Waste Containment Systems, Waste Stabilization, and Landfills Design and Evaluation, Sharma\n30 and Lewis, 1994), with conservative factors of safety. The potential loss of strength due to the\n31 perforations in the perforated collection piping was assumed non-significant, based on actual test results\n32 of perforated pipe under similar load rates. The pipe material assumed is High Density Polyethylene\n33 PE3408 pipe with a cell classification of 345434C or better. The flexural modulus and material strength\n34 of the pipe was per manufacturer's published literature, based on this classification of pipe.\n35 5.9.1.2 Leachate System Loading Analyses for Piping Outside of Phase I Liner Limits\n36 Piping outside the Phase I liner area includes all underground piping between the crest pad building,\n37 combined sump, leachate transfer building, storage tank, and tanker truck load out facility (see Drawing\n38 H-2-830846). The civil road layout in these areas is generally configured to allow medium to light duty\n39 trucks, such as would be used for operations and maintenance activities. The leachate tanker truck\n40 accesses the concrete truck load pad only, and would not normally pass over any piping. However, the\n41 piping outside the Phase I Liner area was designed for H-20 semi-trailer type loading to be conservative.\n42 The same SDR pipe that used for the high loading within the Phase I liner limits as described in Section\n43 5.9.1.1 was assumed for all piping exposed to earth and traffic loading outside of the Phase I liner limits.\n44 The expected pipe loading for H-20 loading plus earth load was compared to the loading used for\n45 designing the piping inside the Phase I liner limits and was found to be much lower. Since the pipe SDR\n46 is sufficiently strong for the maximum loading inside the Phase I limits, it will have more than sufficient\n47 strength for loading expected outside the Phase I limits. Calculations are included in Appendix C.8.a.\nAppendix 4A. 1.62\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 5.9.2 Leachate System Hydraulics Analyses\n2 5.9.2.1 Leachate System Hydraulics Analyses\n3 The leachate collection and conveyance system collects leachate that accumulates as a result of\n4 precipitation landing within the footprint of the cells, and it conveys the collected leachate from the cells\n5. to a storage tank or tanker truck. Perforated collection piping in the LCRS collects and conveys leachate\n6 from the bottom liner system and conveys it to a LCRS sump area in both cells. Lateral flow of leachate\n7 from the side slope and bottom liner areas also is conveyed directly to the sump area through a high\n8 permeability gravel layer and/or geosynthetic drainage net material. Submersible pumps in the LCRS\n9 sump and contained within perforated riser pipes convey leachate to the crest pad building and directly to\n10 the leachate storage tank or the tanker truck load facility. Hydraulics analysis was conducted to size the\n11 gravity flow piping of the LCRS collection piping and the pump and force main system from the sump\n12 area to the storage tank and tanker truck load facility. Sizing and design of leachate collection and\n13 conveyance systems were based on ultimate build out of the IDF through Phase IV. That is, the\n14 components installed as part of the Phase I design are sized for the ultimate configuration and flows\n15 estimated through Phase IV.\n16 5.9.2.2 LCRS Gravity Flow Analyses\n17 The LCRS perforated collection piping was sized using standard gravity flow analysis techniques. The\n18 pipe size (nominal 12-inch diameter) was chosen as double the minimum size required for cleanout of the\n19 pipe to insure any accumulation of fines would not significantly restrict the flow in the pipe, even though\n20 the drain gravel surrounding the pipe will have minimal fines present and geotextiles are present in the\n21 lining system to further restrict the migration of any fines. The maximum flow used for sizing was the\n22 maximum from the HELP predicted maximum day flow rate or the pump flow rate, based on the pump\n23 chosen to convey flow out of the cell.\n24 Perforations in the pipe were sized to allow flow rates much higher than the required maximum flow rate\n25 out of the cell, with minimal head loss. This assumption was more conservative by virtue of the fact that\n26 the main LCRS collection pipe will only collect and convey a portion of the lateral drainage flow from the\n27 cell; the drain gravel and CDN will also convey a portion of the flow. Calculations are included in\n28 Appendix C.8.b.\n29 5.9.2.3 Leachate System Pumps and Force Mains Analyses\n30 The pump and forcemain systems for conveying leachate out of the cells and into the leachate storage\n31 tanks and to the tanker truck load out facility,. and the design considerations for each are described below.\n32 Calculations are included in Appendix C.8.b.\n33 LCRS pumps and forcemains-The LCRS pumps and forcemains convey leachate out of the cells to\n34 storage tanks or the tanker truck load areas. The criteria for pumping capacity is that the maximum head\n35 over the sump area of the cell will not be allowed to exceed 12 inches during the peak day event and\n36 during normal operations. To meet the requirement for not exceeding the 12-inch criteria for the peak day\n37 event, a LCRS high flow pump was sized to handle the expected peak day flow rate, as estimated and\n38 described in Section 5.8, Leachate Production. Hydraulic analyses were conducted to size the pump and\n39 forcemain piping according to standard practice to convey the maximum flow rate.\n40 A LCRS low flow pump was sized to convey flow out of the cells under normal, monthly operations. The\n41 criteria established for the low flow pump was to convey the average monthly flow plus one standard\n42 deviation from the cells, assuming the pump could remove that amount of flow with less than continuous\n43 operation. The highest value of the average month plus one standard deviation was used for the\n44 maximum flow required of the pump. Under lower flow required conditions, the pump would operate\n45 near this rate, depending on the system curve head loss characteristics, but would run for a shorter length\n46 of time to remove the volume of leachate from the cell.\n47\nAppendix 4A. 1.63\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 LDS pump and forcemain-The LDS pump and forcemain conveys flows from leakage through the\n2 LCRS sump area, if in the unlikely event any leakage occurs, to the storage tank or tanker truck load out\n3 facility. The LDS system is sized to convey the flow equal to the ALR (described in Section 5.11);\n4 however, this rate is so small that the pump capacity is much higher than necessary.\n5 Leachate transfer pump to truckload and forcemain-Under normal operations, leachate conveyed out\n6 of the IDF will be routed to the leachate storage tank. Periodically the leachate will need to be conveyed\n7 to tanker trucks for transport to an offsite water treatment facility. A transfer pump is required to move\n8 water from the storage tank to the tanker truck loadout facility. The pump and forcemain were sized to\n9 convey approximately 250 gallons per minute (gpm), a rate commensurate with timely loading of the\n10 tanker trucks that have capacities equal to approximately 7,000 gallons. At 250 gpm, the tankers can be\n11 loaded quickly, depending on the operational requirements for moving leachate and making storage tank\n12 capacity available under high precipitation conditions and/or the condition when the storage tanks are at\n13 or near capacity. Storage and operations considerations are described in Section 5.9.2.4.\n14 Combined sump pump and forcemain-The combined sump pump and forcemain must convey flow\n15 from the sump to the leachate storage tank. The flow criteria for this pump was set at approximately the\n16 same flow as the leachate transfer pump. This is based on the worst case scenario of the leachate transfer\n17 pump accidentally being left on when the tanker truck is filled, causing the full 250 gpm flow to overflow\n18 the truck, collect on the pad, and drain into the combined sump. Under less than maximum flow\n19 conditions, the pump would cycle when any leakage from other systems connected to the sump pump\n20 reached the level on control setting for the pump. In this case, the pump would cycle quickly to pump the\n21 small volume of the inner sump into the storage tank.\n22 Crest pad building sump pump-A small sump pump is provided in the crest pad building to remove\n23 minor amounts of water in the sump from sampling activities or piping leaks. The nominal flow rate was\n24 chosen as a minimum of four gpm. The pump discharges into the main forcemain line to the storage tank\n25 or tanker truck load out facility.\n26 The pump and forcemain piping systems were modeled using standard hydraulic analysis techniques.\n27 Actual pump curves for preliminary pump selections were input and the analyses conducted to determine\n28 the estimated run condition for the various operational conditions. For example, a pump was chosen for\n29 the LCRS high flow pump and forcemain system, and the analysis was run for the conditions of the pump\n30 conveying flow to the leachate storage tank and directly to the tanker truck load out facility. Different\n31 flow rates and system pressures resulted, based on the differences in the system curve for each flow path\n32 versus the pump curve characteristics. Pump cycle times were considered for the flow requirements and\n33 total removed volume. The manufacturer's recommendations for cycle times and other operating\n34 requirements, where applicable, were checked.\n35 5.9.2.4 Leachate Collection Storage Analyses\n36 The results of the leachate production analysis indicate a total of approximately 269,000 gallons of\n37 leachate must be removed from the IDF landfill within 24 hours after a peak storm event. A temporary\n38 storage tank for each cell was sized to store leachate generated by the associated cell. The leachate\n39 storage tank capacity is dependent on the flow rate of leachate into and out of the tank as well as a factor\n40 of safety.\n41 The leachate production analysis indicates the worst case flow rate out of each cell into the associated\n42 tank would be 157 gpm (sum of the required flow rates of the high and low flow leachate pumps). The\n43 leachate transfer pump for each cell can fill a tanker truck at a maximum of 250 gpm; however, the\n44 limiting factor is how often a truck can be filled.\n45 The calculation in Appendix C.8.c presents the method of determining the appropriate storage capacity of\n46 each leachate storage tank. The following leachate tanker truck loading activities were assumed:\n47 * Tanker Capacity 7,000 gallons\n48 * Number of tankers per cycle 1\nAppendix 4A. 1.64\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Hours per cycle (roundtrip) 2.4\n2 * Hours per shift 8\n3 * Shifts per day 1\n4 * Leachate tank level prior to event 2 feet\n5 The calculation indicates that each tank requires a maximum operational capacity of 375,000 gallons to\n6 maintain a safety factor of 1.5. The assumptions made in the calculation must be adhered to during\n7 operational activities to maintain the calculated safety factor.\n8 5.10 Surface Stormwater\n9 The surface stormwater analysis was done to determine the sizes of the surface stormwater facilities\n10 necessary for the IDF Phase I Critical Systems Design. The surface stormwater analysis is documented in\n11 detail in Appendix C.9.\n12 The governing regulation is WAC 173-303-665(2) (c) and (d). This requires that the stormwater system\n13 be designed to prevent flow onto the active portion of the landfill during peak discharge from at least a\n14 25-year storm. It also requires that the runoff management system be designed to collect and control at\n15 least the water volume resulting from a 24-hour, 25-year storm.\n16 The primary purpose of the proposed stormwater facilities is to prevent stormwater runoff from areas\n17 adjacent to the two Phase I cells from entering the cells during Phase I operation. This will be done by\n18 collecting, conveying, and safely discharging stormwater from areas outside of the two Phase I cells that\n19 would otherwise run into these cells.\n20 The Department of Ecology has issued State Waste Discharge Permit Number ST 4510 for industrial\n21 stormwater discharges to the ground through engineered land disposal structures on the Hanford site (ST\n22 4510, Ecology, 1999; DOE/RL97-67 Revision 3, January 2000). Since the design for this project does\n23 include facilities for collecting stormwater runoff and discharging it to the ground, the permit was\n24 reviewed to determine whether it applied to these stormwater discharges. To be covered by this permit,\n25 the stormwater must be considered an industrial discharge that is collected in an engineered structure and\n26 is then discharged to the ground through an engineered structure. A stormwater discharge is an industrial\n27 discharge if the stormwater has the potential to come into contact with an industrial activity or is collected\n28 within an area of industrial activity. The purpose of the stormwater facilities that have been designed for\n29 this project is to prevent the stormwater from areas outside of the Phase I landfill from entering the\n30 landfill area. Therefore, the stormwater collected by these facilities would probably not be considered\n31 industrial stormwater. To be an engineered structure for the collection of stormwater, the structure has to\n32 be an impervious surface that is directly associated with industrial activities. The stormwater collection\n33 facilities designed for this project do not have impervious surfaces. Therefore, permit ST 4510 does not\n34 apply to the stormwater system designed for this project.\n35 Stormwater facilities were designed only for the operation stage of Phase I and not for interim or final\n36 closure conditions. Therefore, no stormwater facilities have been designed for stormwater runoff from\n37 the Phase I cells after construction of their interim closure or final closure. Stormwater needs for the\n38 construction, operation, and closure of future phases were not considered.\n39 No stormwater collection and conveyance facilities were analyzed and/or designed for any of the roads\n40 and support facilities that will be constructed as part of this project. The roads will be gravel surfaced,\n41 and stormwater that does run off the roads into adjacent areas will infiltrate. The stormwater from the\n42 roofs of the buildings will be caught in gutters and discharged to the ground surface via down spouts.\n43 The stormwater that falls on the leachate tanks will evaporate off the floating covers.\n44 5.10.1 Existing Conditions\n45 Under existing conditions, the area around the Phase I site slopes down gently from south to north at an\n46 average grade of approximately 0.5 percent.\nAppendix 4A.1.65\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The only area that may generate stormwater that can run into the Phase I excavation is the area that\n2 extends south from the excavation area to the crest of the sand dunes, located north of 1st Street (see\n3 drainage areas figure in Appendix C.9). This drainage area is moderately vegetated, primarily with large\n4 sage brush and grasses. The soils are generally sandy, with relatively high rates of infiltration. This area\n5 typically receives little precipitation. There is little to no runoff, and stormwater normally either\n6 infiltrates or is used by the vegetation. No existing drainage channels are apparent. The groundwater\n7 table is approximately 300 feet below the ground surface.\n8 5.10.2 Proposed Stormwater Facilities\n9 To prevent stormwater from the area south of the Phase I excavation from running overland into the\n10 excavation, a combination stormwater berm/ditch will be constructed south of the top of the south slope\n11 of the excavation. The south end of the excavation will be approximately 1,400 feet long, and the ground\n12 will be essentially flat. The berm/ditch will have a center high point and then slope down to the east and\n13 to the west (two discharge points). A berm will be constructed immediately south of the ditch. At the\n14 centerline of the excavation, the invert of the ditch will be at the existing ground surface, and the berm\n15 will form the south slope of the ditch. The ditch will be excavated, with a longitudinal slope of\n16 0.5 percent to both the east and the west. This will be done in order to minimize the depth of the ditch at\n17 its east and west ends. Culverts will be installed at the east and west ditch ends to convey the flow under\n18 the access roads. The culverts will discharge into the east and west infiltration areas.\n19 The base map does not show any areas where stormwater runoff from offsite areas may flow into the east\n20 or west boundaries of the Phase I excavation. However, if any offsite stormwater should flow toward\n21 these boundaries, the fill for the berm access road and the shine berm will prevent the stormwater from\n22 flowing into the excavation (see drainage areas figure in Appendix C.9). The intercepted stormwater will\n23 flow south along the toe of the fill and either infiltrate or flow overland to the north, away from the site at\n24 the north end of the berm access road.\n25 The ground slopes away from the north end of the Phase I site, so there will be no offsite stormwater\n26 running toward the north Phase I boundary.\n27 The Phase I liner will end north of the toe of the south slope of the Phase I excavation. In order to reduce\n28 potential leachate flows, a stormwater berm/ditch will be constructed just south of the south end of the\n29 liner. This berm/ditch will intercept and convey stormwater runoff from the unlined south slope and the\n30 unlined southern ends of the east and west slopes. The berm/ditch will be sloped to drain to the east. A\n31 stormwater pipe will convey the stormwater under the landing for the access ramp and will discharge to\n32 the excavation infiltration area. If this pipe ran straight from the ditch to the infiltration area, it would not\n33 have adequate cover. Therefore, a catch basin with a solid cover will be installed near the west end of the\n34 stormwater pipe. The invert of the pipe out of the catch basin will be lower than that of the pipe running\n35 into this catch basin. The stormwater pipe that will run from the catch basin to the excavation infiltration\n36 area will then have adequate cover. The excavation infiltration area will be excavated in the southeast\n37 corner of the excavation.\n38 The south edge of the access ramp into the Phase I excavation and the south edge of the \"flat\" area at the\n39 bottom of the access ramp will serve as ditches. The access ramp will have a cross-slope of 2 percent\n40 down to the south. The \"flat\" area at the bottom of the access ramp will have a slope down to the south\n41 that varies between I and 3 percent. Adjacent to each of these will be the south slope of the excavation.\n42 Construction of a full V-shaped ditch along the south side of the access ramp and the \"flat\" area was\n43 considered. This idea was rejected because it would result in a larger excavation with the top of the Phase\n44 I south slope moved further south.\n45 The stormwater facilities are shown on the Phase I Grading and Drainage Plan drawing\n46 (Drawing H-2-830830).\n47 Stormwater runoff from the north, east, and west lined slopes of Phase I will run into the bottom lined\n48 area and will become leachate.\nAppendix 4A.1.66\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI There are no provisions in the design of the Phase I critical systems to divert clean runoff from these side\n2 slopes and discharge it to the surface water system instead of the leachate system at this time. However, a\n3 rain curtain or other approach to reduce the amount of clean runoff from the lined area that enters the\n4 leachate system may be considered in the future.\n5 5.10.3 Analysis\n6 The surface stormwater analysis is documented in Appendix C.9 and is summarized below.\n7 Stormwater runoff flows were estimated for a 24-hour, 25-year design event, using the Soil Conservation\n8 Service curve number methodology as documented in Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds (U.S.\n9 Department of Agriculture, June 1986) and the Hydraulic Engineering Cirular-1 (HEC-1) computer\n10 program (Flood Hydrograph Package (HEC-1), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Hydrologic Engineering\n11 Center, revised June 1988). The precipitation data used was based on information from the Hanford Site\n12 Climatological Data Summary 2001 (Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, May 2002). The ground at\n13 the project site is periodically frozen during the winter months, when the most precipitation falls.\n14 Therefore, it was assumed that the ground was frozen for the runoff flow calculations.\n15 The peak flows (calculated using the HEC-1 model) were checked for reasonableness. The tabular and\n16 graphical methods in TR 55 were used to estimate peak 25-year flows for each of the drainage areas\n17 modeled in HEC-1. The results confirmed the reasonableness of the peak flows calculated by HEC-1.\n18 The berm/ditches were designed to convey the peak 25-year flow with a minimum freeboard of one foot.\n19 The infiltration areas were sized based on containing and infiltrating the runoff from the 24-hour, 25-year\n20 design event, without causing the water surface to extend above the upstream end of the culvert or\n21 stormwater pipe that will discharge to the infiltration area. No specific infiltration data have been\n22 collected at the IDF project site. However, infiltration rates have been determined for use at the Waste\n23 Treatment Plant (Geotechnical Report Supplement No. 1, Shannon and Wilson, April 2001). These\n24 infiltration rates were used in sizing each of the infiltration areas.\n25 The culverts and stormwater pipes were designed to convey the peak 25-year flow with a maximum\n26 headwater to a diameter ratio of 1.25. Both inlet and outlet flow conditions were analyzed. The starting\n27 water surface for the outlet flow condition calculations were the maximum water surface elevation\n28 estimated for the associated infiltration area for the 24-hour, 25-year design event.\n29 5.11 Action Leakage Rate (ALR)\n30 5.11.1 LDS ALR\n31 The ALR is defined in WAC 173-303-665(8) and the Final Rule (EPA 1992a, 40 CFR Part 264.222) as\n32 the \"maximum design flow rate that the leak detection system.. .can remove without the fluid head on the\n33 bottom liner exceeding 1 foot\". This calculation was performed to determine the ALR for the IDF lining\n34 system. The IDF consists of two cells, each with an area of approximately 8.5 acres.\n35 In addition to determining the ALR, an estimate of actual leakage rate through the proposed primary\n36 bottom lining system is provided as a comparison to the calculated ALR. HELP modeling for the side\n37 slope indicates negligible head build-up on the side slopes (see Section 5.8), thus an estimation of the\n38 actual leakage rate was determined for the bottom primary lining system only.\n39 EPA provides a formula (based on Darcy's Law for calculating this flow capacity), assuming that it\n40 originates from a single hole in the primary liner (EPA, 1992b). Calculations presented in Appendix C.10\n41 provide details of the method of analysis and input data. The ALR calculations are dependent on the\n42 transmissivity value for the CDN. A value of 3 x 10-5 m2/sec was used in the ALR analysis (equivalent\n43 to the value required by WAC and EPA regulations for the LDS, Section 5.7.2). Calculations in\n44 Appendix C.6.b2 provide justification for the transmissivity used in the ALR analyses.\n45 The results of the analyses indicate the ALR for each IDF cell is 206 gallons per acre per day (gpad) or\n46 approximately 1,800 gallons per day per cell. This ALR includes a factor of safety of 2 in accordance\n47 with EPA guidelines (EPA, 1992b).\nAppendix 4A.1.67\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI It is also much lower than the capacity of the pump that removes liquid from the LDS. The estimated\n2 actual leakage rate for the composite primary lining system is 0.06 gpad (small defect) to 0.08 gpad\n3 (larger defect) for a composite liner with good intimate contact, and 0.3 gpad (small) to 0.4 gpad (large)\n4 for poor contact. Detailed calculations for both rates are presented in Appendix C. 10.\n5 The proposed primary composite lining system has a much lower estimated leakage rate than the ALR.\n6 This demonstrates the benefit of the GCL that is included in the primary bottom lining system, to provide\n7 a composite lining system and minimize actual leakage rate through the bottom primary lining system.\n8 5.12 Building Systems Analyses\n9 5.12.1 Geotechnical Design Parameters\n10 The key geotechnical parameters and analyses for structural design of the supporting facilities for the\n11 Hanford IDF included the following:\n12 * Bearing Capacity\n13 * Settlement\n14 * Modulus of Subgrade Reaction\n15 * Earth Pressures\n16 * UBC Seismic Soil Parameters\n17 The methodologies, input data, and results for each of these categories of analysis are presented in detail\n18 in Appendix C.I l.A.\n19 5.12.2 Structural\n20 5.12.2.1 Crest Pad Building Foundation Analysis, Pipe Bracing and Winch\n21 The crest pad building foundation was analyzed as a concrete slab on an elastic foundation. The\n22 foundation was modeled with springs to model the vertical sub-grade reaction. The value of the vertical\n23 sub-grade reaction was provided by the geotechnical engineer. The applied loads and load combinations\n24 were input into Visual Analysis (version 4.0), a finite element program. The finite element analyses\n25 results include elastic settlement, moments, and shears values of the concrete slab. The results were then\n26 used to design slab depth and reinforcing.\n27 Load reactions from the pre-engineered metal building were estimated using hand calculations and\n28 applied onto the concrete slab at the corners of the slab. It is a reasonable assumption that the frame loads\n29 from the pre-engineered metal building will only occur at the corner of the building, since the size of the\n30 building will not require any intermediate framing.\n31 Loads and load combinations were used as required by TFC-ENG-STD-06, REV A. Performance\n32 category, PC-I was used as specified and applied as applicable for both wind, seismic, and load\n33 combinations requirements.\n34 In summary, the analyses results showed that an 8-inch thick slab sufficed with #5 reinforcing at 12-inch\n35 centers. The analyses results also showed that a 1 foot-10 inch edge thickening around the perimeter of\n36 the building would be sufficient. More detailed accounting of the analyses is presented in\n37 Appendix C.11.bl.\n38 The pipe bracing and support for the small diameter PVC (polyvinyl chloride) piping included both\n39 gravity as well as lateral load resistance, due to a seismic event. The governing piping support is assumed\n40 a 6-foot-tall cantilever support, with the piping load and 50 pounds of lateral load applied to the top of the\n41 support. The 50 pound lateral load was used in lieu of the calculated seismic load because the calculated\n42 seismic load was only 19 pounds. Using a 50 pound lateral load gives the pipe support system greater\n43 rigidity. Detailed calculations of the pipe supports are included in Appendix C.11.b2.\n44 The winch support was analyzed as a vertical cantilever that supports the winch and resists a total lateral\n45 load of 400 pounds.\nAppendix 4A. 1.68\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 A 400 pound lateral load was used since the entire gravity load of the pump and the hoses adds up to this\n2 weight. Therefore, using 400 pounds in the horizontal direction is conservative. Detailed calculations of\n3 the winch support are given in Appendix C. 1.b3.\n4 5.12.2.2 Leachate Transfer Building Foundation Analysis\n5 As the leachate transfer building foundation is considered as a slab-on-grade, only hand calculations were\n6 performed. Foundation soil reactions were considered to be distributed linearly, then soil pressure\n7 distributions were applied to the concrete to calculated the moment and shear values for design of the\n8 concrete slab and reinforcing steel.\n9 Load reactions from the pre-engineered metal building were estimated using hand calculations and\n10 applied onto the concrete slab along the perimeter of the slab.\n11 Loads and load combinations were used as required by TFC-ENG-STD-06, REV A. Performance\n12 category, PC-1 was used as specified and applied as applicable for both wind, seismic, and load\n13 combinations requirements.\n14 In summary, the analyses results showed that the 2-foot-6 inch-thick slab with #6 bars at 12-inch centers\n15 will suffice and appears to be overdesigned. The 2-foot-6-inch thickness is not based on concrete strength\n16 requirements but more for frost depth cover, simplifying the ground forming, and reinforcing bending\n17 requirements. Detailed calculations of the analyses are presented in Appendix C.1 l.c.\n18 5.12.2.3 Leachate Tank Foundation Analysis\n19 The leachate tank foundation is considered to be a concrete ringwall, per AWWA D103-97. The tank\n20 gravity loads, including both water load and tank dead loads, were considered in the design of the\n21 ringwall.\n22 AWWA D103-97, Factory-Coated Bolted Steel Tanks for Water Storage is not listed in the TFC-ENG-\n23 STD-06, REV A. AWWA D100-96, Welded Steel Tanks for Water Storage, is listed; however, this\n24 standard does not apply, since the tank will be a bolted steel tank. Therefore, the tank will be designed\n25 per AWWA D103-97, Factory-Coated Bolted Steel Tanks for Water Storage.\n26 The analysis of the concrete ringwall and reinforcing is based on the hoop tension on the ringwall from\n27 the surcharge of the liquid weight on the soil within the ringwall. In summary, a 4-foot-6-inch-deep by\n28 1-foot-6-inch width ringwall with #7 at 12-inch-longitudinal reinforcing on each face of the ringwall will\n29 suffice. Detailed calculations of the analyses are presented in Appendix C.1 1.d.\n30 5.12.2.4 Truck Loading Station Foundation Analysis and Leachate Loading\n31 The Truck Loading Station foundation was analyzed as a concrete slab on an elastic foundation. The\n32 foundation was modeled with springs to model the vertical subgrade reaction. The value of the vertical\n33 subgrade reaction was provided by the geotechnical engineer. The applied loads and load combinations\n34 were input into Visual Analysis (version 4.0), a finite element program. The finite element analyses\n35 results include elastic settlement, moments, and shears values of the concrete slab. The results were then\n36 used to design slab depth and reinforcing.\n37 Loads and load combinations were used as required by TFC-ENG-STD-06, REV A. As required,\n38 AASHTO HB-16 loading was used with an HS 20-44 load wheel pattern. For maximum axle load,\n39 40,000 pounds was used instead of 32,000 pounds as required per HS 20-44. An impact factor was also\n40 applied as required by AASHTO HB-16.\n41 The wheel pattern loading was arranged in three positions on the slab to yield the maximum moments and\n42 shears. Supporting calculations and further discussions are presented in Appendix C.11.el.\n43 The leachate loading support was analyzed as a post with a horizontal boom attached near the top of the\n44 post. The design load included the dead weight of the post, boom, and piping full of water. Wind loads\n45 were analyzed per ASCE 7-98.\nAppendix 4A. 1.69\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI In addition, the lateral load was compared with a 300-pound point load hanging vertically at the end of\n2 the boom. The lateral wind load governed for overall overturning at the base of the post; however, the\n3 300-pound point load governed for the boom attachment to the post.\n4 In summary, a 10-inch by 10-inch tube for the post, with a 6-inch by 6-inch tube as the horizontal boom\n5 welded to the post will suffice.

Those\n22 requirements consist of an ultimate landfill capacity for 1,177,110 cubic yards of waste and a Phase 1\n23 capacity of 213,515 cubic yards of waste.\n24 The IDF is also designed to balance the cut and fill volumes of the project. The ultimate landfill layout\n25 on the project site provides this balance. The volume balance includes excavated material, which will be\n26 used for the construction of the closure cap. Since the closure cap will be selected and designed in the\n27 future, assumptions for the cap layout and construction were made.\n28 With a phased construction approach planned for IDF and the fact that'the material balance includes\n29 backfill to construct a closure cap for the ultimate landfill, a substantial volume of material will be stored\n30 in stockpiles at the completion of construction of Phase I landfill. The Phase I landfill design volumes for\n31 subgrade cut, admix liner, drain gravel, and operations layer material were calculated using a 3-D\n32 AutoCAD model of the landfill. These volumes were used to identify the stockpile requirements to store\n33 material once Phase I construction is complete.\nAppendix 4A. 1.77\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Potential stockpile locations are identified on the project site plan. Calculations of these volumes are\n2 included in Appendix C.12.a. Calculations in Appendix C.12.a also present confirmation of the available\n3 waste volume and cut/fill balance.\n4 5.13.2 Phase I Access Road and Ramp Cross Section Design\n5 Two cross sections using granular material for base and top course were designed for the Phase I landfill\n6 access roads and the access ramp into the landfill. The design reflects the estimated wheel loads and\n7 vehicles to use the facility daily. Calculations presenting the development of these cross sections are\n8 included in Appendix C.12.b.\n9 6.0 FACILITY DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION\n10 6.1 Facility Layout\n11 6.1.1 Location\n12 The IDF will be located approximately 1,400 feet east of Baltimore Avenue and directly north of 1st\n13 Street in the 200 East Area of the Hanford Site. Phase I of the IDF landfill will measure approximately\n14 800 feet by 1,500 feet, with its north-south axis being the shorter dimension. Leachate handling facilities\n15 will be located immediately north of the Phase I cells. The excavated depth to subgrade (not including\n16 sump depressions) will range from approximately 44 to 51 feet. Excavation will be deepest at the\n17 landfill's north end, near the sumps and along the centerline of each cell. It will be shallowest at the\n18 southwest and southeast corners of Cells 1 and 2, respectively. Stockpile locations for excavated\n19 materials will be situated east and southeast of the Phase I landfill excavation. At the completion of\n20 Phase I construction, exposed surfaces of the stockpiles and disturbed areas will be covered with a layer\n21 of topsoil, then seeded and mulched. A borrow area of soil to supplement admix preparation is located\n22 south of the Phase I excavation location.\n23 6.1.2 Access Roads and Ramps\n24 For access to Phase I of the IDF, waste hauler and operations vehicles will follow an access road and\n25 travel north from 1st Street. All roads and ramps at the Phase I IDF site will be constructed with crushed\n26 surfacing material for the base and top courses. The access road from 1st Street will be aligned with the\n27 landfill's west berm access road. The road will also follow the alignment of the west access berm road\n28 for the future IDF cells.\n29 The access road will lead north, approximately 1,000 feet from 1st Street to where it widens into an\n30 intersection. At this location, a turn to the east will lead down a 5 percent grade, 800-foot-long access\n31 ramp into the Phase I landfill. The access ramp slope was selected to allow use by both waste haul trucks\n32 and the melter transporter. The grade of the access road from 1st Street was also limited to a maximum of\n33 five percent for this same reason. The access ramp into the landfill and the access road from 1st Street to\n34 the intersection area will be both 30 feet wide.\n35 At that base of the ramp into the landfill, there will be adequate room for waste haul vehicles to turn and\n36 move the waste into the cells. The liner system will be installed to extend approximately 50 feet south\n37 beyond the estimated toe of slope of Phase I waste placement. This extension will allow waste haul\n38 vehicles to be staged or unloaded over a lined area.\n39 At the access road intersection, continuing north will lead up a short ramp and onto the berm access road.\n40 The berm access road will be 20 feet wide on the east and west sides of the landfill. The road will widen\n41 to 30 feet at the northwest and northeast comers of the landfill and along the landfill's north side.\n42 The wider road in these areas will allow operations vehicles to traverse around road comers and the crest\n43 pad buildings.\n44 The access road will continue from the northwest corner of the berm access road to the Cell 1 and Cell 2\n45 leachate storage tank facilities. A cul-de-sac area will be provided just east of the Cell 2 leachate\n46 facilities to provide a turnaround area for operations vehicles and leachate tanker trucks.\nAppendix 4A. 1.78\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 A road will also be provided to allow operation vehicles to travel south between the leachate facilities and\n2 onto the berm access road at the centerline of IDF landfill.\n3 Future projects are being planned to upgrade the 1st Street pavement and construct an operation building\n4 north of the IDF landfill. It is anticipated that these facilities will connect to access roads designed for the\n5 Phase I landfill.\n6 Related to permanent access roads and their use, the construction contractor will be required by the\n7 project general requirements to submit a plan, which details their use during construction. This plan will\n8 address locations and limits of stripping/grubbing, construction haul roads, stockpile/borrow areas and\n9 other construction staging areas.\n10 6.1.3 Survey Grids\n11 Survey grids for this project use the Washington State Plane coordinate system (South Zone-feet, NAD83\n12 Lambert Projection). Contours are based on 200 Area topographic mapping database, provided by\n13 Hanford HGIS Department and dated 1991. A 1-foot contour interval was used on the design drawings.\n14 As part of the Phase I landfill design, construction control points were developed for landfill and sump\n15 subgrades as well as for the anchor trenches, stormwater facilities, and the finished grades for all roads\n16 and ramps. North and east coordinates and elevations for these points are included in a survey control\n17 table on Drawing H-2-830829, Sheet 2 of 2. The control points and lines between them will provide a\n18 location grid that will allow construction of the subgrade, liner system, operations layer, and the finished\n19 grades for the IDF.\n20 6.2 Landfill Geometry\n21 6.2.1 Waste Volumes and Types\n22 6.2.1.1 Volume\n23 Two key design criteria were provided by CH2M HILL concerning waste volumes:\n24 * Phase I of the IDF should be designed to receive a waste volume of 213,515 cubic yards, which is\n25 equal to163,250 cubic meters. CH2M HILL identified the waste volume for placement in all\n26 phases of IDF (ultimate landfill size) as 1,177,110 cubic yards, or 900,000 cubic meters.\n27 * Both the Phase I landfill and the ultimate landfill volumes should be sized for an air space, which\n28 includes 1.5 cubic yards of clean fill for every cubic yard of waste.\n29 * Using these criteria, Phase I was designed to provide air space for placement of 533,620 cubic\n30 yards of waste and clean fill.\n31 6.2.1.2 Waste Types\n32 (Note: The disposal of MLLW other than ILAW, DBVS waste, and IDF generated waste is not permitted\n33 at this time by this permit.)\n34 The IDF will receive waste types including ILAW, DBVS Waste, and LLW. These wastes include both\n35 contact and remote-handled wastes. As identified in the project kickoff meetings by CH2M HILL, the\n36 waste volumes (in cubic yards) are estimated to include the following:\n37\nAppendix 4A.1.79\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nWaste Type Phase I All Phases\nILAW 50,025 753,350\nMILLW 57.550 146,485\nLLW 105,940 277,275\nTotal 213,515 1,177,110\n1 These volumes are based on waste forecast information provided by Fluor Hanford, Inc. (FH). The waste\n2 volume forecasts are updated by Hanford Site contractors on a regular basis. The volumes above\n3 represent an average between the FH 2002 Forecast and the FH 1999 (with EIS) Forecast. Short\n4 descriptions of the waste types are given below:\n5 Immobilized Low-Activity Waste (ILAW)-The LAW packages are stainless steel cylinders that have\n6 been filled with vitrified low-activity waste (physically similar to glass), sealed, and cooled. The source\n7 of these waste cylinders is the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant. The packages are 7.5 feet in\n8 height and 4 feet in diameter, and could weigh up to 22,050 pounds each.\n9 Contact-Handled Mixed Low-Level Waste (CH MLLW)-This waste has a dose rate equal to or less\n10 than 200 mrem/h and contains radioactivity not classified as high-level waste, spent nuclear fuel or\n11 transuranic (TRU) waste (TRU is defined as concentrations of transuranic radionuclides greater than or\n12 equal to 100nCi/g of the waste matrix). The waste is also defined as dangerous (hazardous) waste in\n13 WAC 173-303.\n14 Remote-Handled MLLW -This waste has a dose rate greater than 200 mrem/h and contains\n15 radioactivity not classified as high-level waste, spent nuclear fuel, or TRU waste. The waste is also\n16 defined as dangerous (hazardous) waste in WAC 173-303.\n17 Low-Level Waste Category I (LLW I)-This waste contains radioactivity not classified as high-level\n18 waste, spent nuclear fuel, or TRU waste. The waste also meets the radionuclide limits for category I\n19 waste, defined in the Hanford Site Solid Waste Acceptance Criteria (RH, 1998). This waste may be\n20 comprised of either contact- or remote-handled waste considered low-activity waste with very low\n21 concentrations of long-lived radionuclides. This waste is not a dangerous (hazardous) waste as defined in\n22 WAC 173-303.\n23 Low-Level Waste Category III (LLW III)-This waste contains radioactivity not classified as high-level\n24 waste, spent nuclear fuel, or TRU waste. The waste also exceeds the radionuclide limits for category I\n25 waste and meets the category III limits, defined in the Hanford Site Solid Waste Acceptance Criteria (FH,\n26 1998). This waste may be comprised of either contact- or remote-handled waste considered moderate- to\n27 high-activity waste with low to moderate concentrations of long-lived radionuclides, in stabilized form\n28 that minimizes subsidence for a period of 1,000 years. This waste is not a dangerous (hazardous) waste as\n29 defined in WAC 173-303.\n30 Remote-Handled LLW -This waste has a dose rate greater than 200 mrem/h and contains radioactivity\n31 not classified as high-level waste, spent nuclear fuel, or TRU waste. This waste is not a dangerous\n32 (hazardous) waste as defined in WAC 173-303.\n33 6.2.2 Landfill Phases and Dimensions\n34 The IDF will be a single, expandable RCRA Subtitle C disposal facility that provides ultimate capacity\n35 for 1,177,110 cubic yards (900,000 cubic meters) of waste. The facility is currently anticipated to be\n36 constructed in four phases. Phase I will have two cells. Only Phase I is being permitted at this time.\n37 Each cell has a floor width of approximately 543 feet and a lined floor length of 360 feet. The total floor\n38 width of the IDF will be 1,085 feet. Side slopes of the landfill will be 3:1 (horizontal: vertical). At the\n39 south end of the Phase I cells, there will be a stormwater berm/ditch system with an infiltration area. The\n40 south side of IDF will be unlined for Phase I.\nAppendix 4A. 1.80\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 IDF will be expanded by relocation of the landfill's unlined south slope from earlier phases and\n2 installation of liner system and operations layer. When expanded to its final configuration, the floor of\n3 IDF will be 1,385 feet long, measured along its north-south axis.\n4 6.2.2.1 Depth and Length\n5 The landfill depth for all phases of the IDF is set to accommodate four layers of ILAW waste packages,\n6 placed on end, and each layer will be covered with 3.3 feet of clean soil. In some cases, the waste\n7 packages received for placement in the mixed and low-level waste side of IDF will have heights that vary\n8 from the ILAW package dimensions. In these cases, waste heights will vary from the four layers of\n9 ILAW waste described. The total depth, measured from the top of the operations layer to the top of the\n10 cover layer over the fourth waste layer, will be 43.4 feet. This is sized for the 7.5-foot tall [LAW package\n11 dimension. However, other waste package types can be accommodated. The waste/clean fill depth\n12 (43.2 feet) will be uniform over the entire landfill floor, due to the operations layer and the top of the\n13 landfill both sloping up 1 percent from north to south. The operations layer will be flat in the east-west\n14 direction.\n15 6.2.3 Materials Balance\n16 The IDF was designed to achieve near soil balance. This will minimize excess soil stockpile at the end of\n17 the life of the IDF facility and minimize the cost of hauling offsite borrow material for construction. It is\n18 important to note that the soil balance was calculated for completing IDF through all its phases and the\n19 balance included soil required for construction of the final closure cap. The closure cap design was not\n20 part of the critical systems design, completed for this project.\n21 Having a soil balance at the completion of all phases means that at the end of Phase I, a substantial\n22 amount (approximately 991,000 cubic yards) of material will be stockpiled onsite. The project design\n23 identified potential stockpile sites that were adequate in size for the material to be stockpiled. A portion\n24 of the stockpiled material will be used as clean fill during the waste placement in the Phase I cells.\n25 However, the stockpile will be replenished during the construction of cells for each subsequent IDF\n26 phase.\n27 A description of the resulting soil cut and fill volumes can be found in Appendix C.12.a of this Design\n28 Report.\n29 6.2.4 Erosion Control Measures\n30 Permanent erosion control measures (for both wind and water caused erosion) will be provided for areas\n31 disturbed by Phase I construction.\n32 Areas that are disturbed by the construction that are outside of the Phase I excavation will be stabilized\n33 with a 6-inch-thick layer of topsoil that will be seeded with grass. The south stormwater berm/ditch, the\n34 east and west infiltration areas, and the soil stockpiles will also be stabilized with topsoil and grass.\n35 Geotextile and quarry spalls will be placed around each end of the culverts and the stormwater pipe to\n36 provide erosion protection.\n37 Stormwater runoff will be conveyed along the south side of the access ramp and the south side of the flat\n38 area at the bottom of the access ramp, and will be discharged to the southwest comer of the excavation\n39 infiltration area. Road surfacing will reduce the erosion potential on the ramp and flat area. To prevent\n40 erosion of the south side slope adjacent to the ramp and flat area, a strip of erosion control matting will be\n41 installed on the south side slope, immediately adjacent to the ramp and flat area. Geotextile and quarry\n42 spalls will be placed in the southwest corner of the excavation pond in order to minimize the potential of\n43 erosion due to the stormwater that will be discharged from the south edge of the flat area to the top of the\n44 infiltration area.\n45 Erosion control matting will also be placed on the shine berm to minimize the potential for wind erosion.\n46 The erosion control matting will be a plastic matting with an estimated service life at least equal to the\n47 10-year period that the Phase I cells are expected to operate.\nAppendix 4A.I.81\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 To reduce wind erosion, all of the side slopes of the Phase I excavation will be stabilized with a spray-on\n2 application of a soil stabilization material. Additional applications of the soil stabilization material may\n3 have to be done annually on the areas that remain exposed.\n4 The contractor will also be required to prepare and implement a dust control plan for the construction.\n5 6.3 Lining System Materials\n6 6.3.1 Liner Selection Basis\n7 WAC 173-303-665(2)(a)(i) requires submittal of an engineering report with the permit application under\n8 WAC 173-303-806(4) stating the basis for selecting the liner(s). The report must be certified by a\n9 licensed professional engineer. The intent of Section 6.3 of the Design Report is to satisfy this\n10 requirement of the WAC 173-303, Dangerous Waste Regulations.\n11 Specific requirements to address as the basis for liner selection include:\n12 * The liner must be constructed of materials that have appropriate chemical properties and\n13 sufficient strength and thickness to prevent failure due to pressure gradients (including static head\n14 and external hydrogeologic forces), physical contact with the waste or leachate to which they are\n15 exposed, climatic conditions, the stress of installation, and the stress of daily operation.\n16 * The liner must be placed on a foundation or base that is capable of providing support to the liner\n17 and is able to resist pressure gradients above and below the liner to prevent failure of the liner due\n18 to settlement, compression, or uplift.\n19 * The liner must be installed to cover all surrounding earth likely to be in contact with waste or\n20 leachate.\n21 * The lining system must include a LCRS immediately above the liner that is designed, constructed,\n22 maintained, and operated to collect and remove leachate from the landfill. Design and operating\n23 conditions will ensure that the leachate depth over the liner does not exceed 1 foot. The LCRS\n24 shall be:\n25 * Constructed of materials that are chemically resistant to the waste managed in the landfill and the\n26 leachate expected to be generated, and of sufficient strength and thickness to prevent failure\n27 under the pressures exerted by overlying wastes, waste cover materials, and any equipment used\n28 at the landfill.\n29 * Designed and operated to function without clogging through the scheduled closure of the landfill.\n30 0 Engineering analyses were presented in Section 5 that address the above requirements for basis of\n31 lining selection. Of particular note is Section 5.6 that addresses lining system/leachate\n32 compatibility for all components of the lining system. Compatibility of the lining system\n33 components with the chemical and radiological constituents of the expected leachate is a critical\n34 aspect of the liner selection basis.\n35 * Based on results of the engineering analyses presented in Section 5, the following liner sections\n36 are proposed for the IDF bottom (floor) and side slope lining systems. Section 6.3.2 provides a\n37 detailed discussion of the liner materials for the barrier components of the lining system, and\n38 Section 6.3.3 provides a detailed discussion of the liner materials for the drainage and protection\n39 components of the lining system.\n40 Drawing H-2-830838 (Detail 1) shows the bottom liner section, consisting of the following components,\n41 from top to bottom:\n42 * A 3-foot-thick operations layer\n43 * A separation geotextile (polypropylene)\n44 * A 1-foot-thick leachate collection drain gravel layer\n45 * A minimum 12 oz/square yard cushion geotextile (polypropylene)\n46 * A 60-mil textured primary HDPE geomembrane\nAppendix 4A. 1.82\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * An internally-reinforced GCL\n2 * A CDN drainage layer for the LDS\n3 * A 60-mil textured secondary HDPE geomembrane\n4 * A 3-foot-thick low-permeability compacted admix (soil-bentonite) liner\n5 Drawing H-2-830838 (Detail 2) shows the side slope liner section, consisting of the following\n6 components, from top to bottom:\n7 * A 3-foot-thick operations layer\n8 * A CDN drainage layer for the LCRS\n9 * A 60-mil textured primary HDPE geomembrane\n10 * A CDN drainage layer for the LDS\n11 * A 60-mil textured secondary HDPE geomembrane\n12 * A 3-ft-thick low-permeability admix liner\n13 6.3.2 Liner Materials -Barrier Components\n14 6.3.2.1 Geomembranes\n15 WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(i) requires that the IDF lining system have both a primary and secondary\n16 geomembrane. The geomembrane for the IDF will serve as leachate barrier and as a flow surface routing\n17 leachate to the LCRS sump (for the primary geomembrane) or LDS sump (for the secondary\n18 geomembrane).\n19 HDPE has been selected as the geomembrane liner material because it is generally acknowledged to have\n20 the highest chemical resistance of commercially-available liner materials, has been widely used at similar\n21 facilities, and has a high level of acceptance by regulatory agencies. Details of HDPE geomembrane\n22 compatibility with expected leachate is discussed in Section 5.6.\n23 A nominal thickness of 60-mil has been selected for the HDPE geomembrane. A nominal thickness of\n24 60-mil results in a minimal allowable thickness of 54-mil, as indicated in the technical specifications.\n25 Thus, 60-mil nominal thickness is the minimum required to achieve the 50-mil minimum thickness\n26 specified by Ecology guidance. Textured (roughened) geomembrane will be used to maximize shear\n27 strength along adjacent interfaces and to reduce the potential for sliding of the liner system. Analyses of\n28 the various stresses that the geomembrane is designed to withstand under construction and operational\n29 loads are presented in Section 5.5. Required material properties as a result of these analyses are included\n30 in the technical specifications.\n31 Details of required HDPE geomembrane properties are provided in the technical specifications (see\n32 Section 02661).\n33 6.3.2.2 GCL\n34 A GCL will only be included in the primary bottom lining system. For the bottom lining system, both the\n35 primary and secondary liners will be a composite (geomembrane over admix liner or GCL) system. The\n36 addition of a GCL in the primary lining system will provide an extra measure of protection, exceeding the\n37 requirements of WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(i) for a single geomembrane for the primary liner and\n38 composite for the secondary only. This will provide an extra measure of protection on the bottom flatter\n39 slopes of the IDF, where higher leachate head levels are more likely. A GCL will not be included on the\n40 side slope lining system. The 3H:IV side slopes for the IDF will result in little or no leachate head\n41 expected on the side slope lining system, thus eliminating the need for a lining system design that exceeds\n42 the WAC requirements.\n43 Commercially-available reinforced GCL products consist of bentonite sandwiched between a woven and\n44 non-woven geotextile that are then needle-punched together. Other combinations of upper and lower,\n45 woven and non-woven geotextiles can also be manufactured and specified.\nAppendix 4A. 1.83\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 For the IDF lining system, a needle-punched, reinforced GCL with non-woven geotextiles on both sides\n2 was selected. This type GCL product was selected primarily because of the tensile strength requirements\n3 required for landfill global stability (Section 5.1.3). The tighter weave non-woven geotextile minimizes\n4 the amount of bentonite that migrates to the interface with the geomembrane, thus minimizing the\n5 potential to create a slip surface.\n6 Details of required GCL properties are provided in the technical specifications (see Section 02667).\n7 6.3.2.3 Admix Liner\n8 Details of the admix design test program are provided in Sections 4.2.2 and 5.4.1. Placement and testing\n9 requirements are described in Section 5.4.2.\n10 The admix liner will have a minimum 3-foot thick compacted soil/bentonite admixture and will be located\n11 immediately beneath the secondary HDPE geomembrane, as required by WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(i)(B).\n12 The admix liner typically will consist of base soil mixed with a nominal 12 percent sodium bentonite, by\n13 dry weight. Mixing and processing of the base soil/bentonite admixture is required to be performed under\n14 carefully controlled conditions, using a pugmill operation.\n15 The base soil for the admix liner will consist of natural soil, derived from the dune sand borrow area to\n16 the south of the Phase I cell (as shown on Drawing H-2-830828) or from within Phase I cell excavations.\n17 Based on the results of the limited field exploration for near surface base soil samples (discussed in\n18 Sections 4.1 and 4.2), base soil from either source will not be excavated below a depth of 5 feet bgs (after\n19 stripping) without further evaluation of the material suitability.\n20 Base soils excavated from the dune sand borrow area or site excavation will meet the following\n21 requirements:\n22 * The base soil will be free of roots, woody vegetation, frozen material, rubbish, and other\n23 deleterious material.\n24 * Rocks greater than 1 inch in dimension will not comprise more than 2 percent by weight of the\n25 base soil.\n26 * Base soil will have 20 percent minimum passing a No. 200 U.S. sieve.\n27 * The in-place hydraulic conductivity of the admix liner will be 10-7 centimeters per second or less,\n28 consistent with WAC requirements for secondary soil liners. The upper surface of the admix\n29 liner will be trimmed to the design grades and tolerances. The surface will be rolled with a\n30 smooth steel-drum roller to remove all ridges and irregularities. The result will be a smooth,\n31 uniform surface on which to place the overlying geomembrane liner.\n32 * Before production installation of the admix liner, a full-scale test pad of the admix liner will be\n33 conducted for both the bottom floor (horizontal) and side slope areas of the IDF. Details of the\n34 test pads are provided in the technical specifications (see Section 02666) and the\n35 IDF Construction QA Plan. The primary purpose of the test pad(s) will be to verify that the\n36 specified soil density, moisture content, and hydraulic conductivity values will be achieved\n37 consistently, using proposed compaction equipment and procedures. In-place density will be\n38 measured using both the nuclear gauge (ASTM D2922) and rubber balloon (ASTM D2167) or\n39 sand cone (ASTM D1556) methods. In-place hydraulic conductivity will be determined from a\n40 two-stage borehole permeameter (ASTM D639 1). Admix liner hydraulic conductivity will be\n41 estimated from thin-wall tube samples (ASTM D1587) obtained from the test fill and tested in the\n42 laboratory (ASTM D5084). During construction, field density (e.g., ASTM D2922, D2167,\n43 and/or D1556) and moisture content (ASTM D2216) will be measured periodically. Thin-wall\n44 tube samples (ASTM D1587) will be taken at regular intervals and will be tested for hydraulic\n45 conductivity (ASTM D5084). Additional details of Construction QA testing and acceptance\n46 during admix liner test pad and production installation is provided in the IDF Construction QA\n47 Plan.\nAppendix 4A.1.84\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Details of required admix liner properties and placement requirements are provided in the technical\n2 specifications (see Section 02666).\n3 6.3.3 Liner Materials-Drainage and Protection Components\n4 6.3.3.1 Geotextiles\n5 Two types and weights of geotextiles will be used in the IDF project. The separation (Type 1) geotextile\n6 has a nominal weight of 6 ounce/square yard and was selected based on the ability of the geotextile to\n7 retain the soil and to prevent the soil from entering the LCRS drain gravel. Required AOS and\n8 permittivity were determined based on filter, fines retention, and clogging potential criteria. The waste\n9 disposed in the IDF is expected to contain a minimal amount of organic material, and consequently,\n10 biologic clogging is not expected to be a problem.\n11 The cushion (Type 2) geotextile has a nominal weight of 12 ounce/square yard and was selected based on\n12 providing the required cushion protection for geomembrane on the landfill bottom (floor). The drain\n13 gravel will have the potential to produce localized stress on the geomembrane liner during gravel\n14 placement with construction equipment and under the maximum static pressure from landfill contents at\n15 full waste height with final cover. A puncture analysis was performed to select a sufficiently thick\n16 geotextile to protect the liner. This analysis included the maximum load from landfill contents and final\n17 cover, expected construction vehicle ground pressures, and maximum drain gravel particle size listed in\n18 the technical specifications.\n19 Both types of geotextiles are specified as non-woven needle-punched and made from polypropylene\n20 material. This material was selected because of its higher chemical resistance to the expected leachate\n21 (Golder Associates, 1991 a).\n22 Details of required geotextile properties are provided in the technical specifications (see Section 02371).\n23 6.3.3.2 CDN\n24 The CDN is a drainage geocomposite consisting of a HDPE geonet core with a layer of non-woven\n25 polypropylene geotextile thermally bonded to each side. The CDN selected for the IDF lining system has\n26 two drainage related functions. On the side slopes, it will function as the LCRS. A CDN is selected for\n27 the LCRS on the side slope to avoid construction stability problems associated with placement of clean\n28 granular material on slopes, thereby minimizing the potential for damaging the underlying liner system.\n29 Localized placement of drain gravel is required on side slopes (as shown on Drawing H-2-830848,\n30 Section C), to provide adequate backfill and bedding for leachate collection riser piping. On the side\n31 slope and bottom lining system, the CDN will function as the LDS.\n32 Analyses were performed to evaluate the geotextile puncture requirements for the LCRS CDN on the side\n33 slope and the transmissivity requirements for both the LCRS and LDS CDN. These analyses and\n34 discussion are presented in Section 5.7.\n35 The analyses for CDN geotextile puncture resistance determined that the specified geotextile is adequate\n36 for resistance to puncture from overlying operations layer, under the maximum static pressure from\n37 landfill contents.\n38 The analyses for allowable transmissivity with applied reduction factors for intrusion, creep, and chemical\n39 and biological clogging determined that a higher flow, thicker (250 mil minimum) CDN is required, due\n40 to the reduction of flow under the high normal loads in the final filling configuration.\n41 Details of required CDN properties are provided in the technical specifications (see Section 02373).\n42 6.3.3.3 Drain Gravel\n43 The LCRS for the bottom liner will be located below the operations layer and will provide a flow path for\n44 the leachate flowing into the LCRS sump and sump trough. Between the operations layer and the\n45 underlying drain gravel, a geotextile layer will function as a filter separation geotextile (as discussed in\n46 Section 6.3.3.1).\nAppendix 4A.1.85\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The separation geotextile will prevent migration of fine soil and clogging of the drain gravel. The gravel\n2 will be a minimum 1-foot thick layer of washed, rounded to subrounded stone, with a hydraulic\n3 conductivity of at least 10-2 cm/sec, as required by WAC 173-303-665(2)(h)(iii)(B). In addition, a slotted\n4 HDPE leachate collection piping will be placed within the drain gravel to accelerate leachate transport\n5 into the LCRS sump during high precipitation events. Slots on the leachate collection piping are sized to\n6 be compatible with the drain gravel gradation and particle sizes. Details of the leachate collection piping\n7 design are provided in Section 6.4.1.\n8 Based on review of expected subsurface conditions for the IDF, it is not likely that material meeting drain\n9 gravel is available on or near the site. Thus, drain gravel will have to be an imported material. The\n10 technical specifications require that drain gravel meet the requirements of WSDOT Standard\n11 Specification 9-03.12(4) for gradation. The technical specifications also require a performance\n12 specification for a hydraulic conductivity greater or equal to 10-1 cm/sec.\n13 As discussed in Section 5.7.3, the minimum estimated hydraulic conductivity for the drain gravel exceeds\n14 the required (by WAC regulations) hydraulic conductivity of 10-2 cm/sec by a factor or 100 to 1,000, and\n15 the performance specification hydraulic conductivity of 10-1 cm/sec by a factor of 10 to 100. This allows\n16 for uncertainty in the empirical formulas used to predict hydraulic conductivity, and the potential for\n17 long-term reduction in hydraulic conductivity in the drain gravel, if fines from waste filling and the\n18 operations layer migrate into this layer over time.\n19 Details of required drain gravel material properties are provided in the technical specifications (see\n20 Section 02315).\n21 6.3.3.4 Operations Layer\n22 The purpose of the operations layer will be to protect the underlying lining system components from\n23 damage by equipment and waste canisters during IDF construction and operation. This layer also will\n24 protect the admix liner from freeze/thaw damage and desiccation cracking. This is especially the case on\n25 the side slopes, expected to be exposed (prior to waste placement) for longer duration than the bottom\n26 (floor) of the IDF cell.\n27 The operations layer material typically will consist of onsite granular soil from the IDF Phase I\n28 excavation. The excavated material is expected to be a fine-grained sand to silty sand with traces of\n29 gravel. The technical specifications require the material to have a maximum particle size limit of\n30 two inches or less, and fines will be limited to maximum 25 percent fines (percent passing the U.S. No.\n31 200 sieve). Based on review of expected subsurface conditions for the IDF excavation, the majority of\n32 soil excavated from the IDF Phase I excavation is expected to be suitable for use as operations layer\n33 without processing, As discussed in Section 4, additional geotechnical exploration within the IDF Phase I\n34 limits are recommended prior to construction to verify these findings.\n35 Details of required operations layer material properties are provided in the technical specifications (see\n36 Section 02315).\n37 6.4 Leachate Collection System\n38 The leachate collection system for each cell in Phase I will consist of lateral flow media built into the\n39 cell's bottom and side slope liner system, a leachate collection pipe in the center of the cell, a sump at the\n40 north end of the cell where all leachate drains, pumps and leachate transfer piping to convey leachate out\n41 of the cell, and a network of piping and storage tanks for storing the leachate for later transfer to tanker\n42 trucks for offsite disposal. Below the bottom liner and under the LCRS sump area will be an LDS sump,\n43 pump, and associated piping. All components for Phase I of the leachate collection system are designed\n44 and configured for eventual full development of the IDF through Phase IV.\n45 The type and configuration of the leachate collection system described below has been used successfully\n46 at other disposal facilities, and a very similar facility was recently (2002) implemented at the INEEL site\n47 near Idaho Falls, Idaho. This ICDF will accept waste with radioactive characteristics and is located in a\n48 region with dry weather conditions, similar to Hanford.\nAppendix 4A. 1.86\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.4.1 Leachate Collection Piping\n2 6.4.1.1 Description\n3 Lateral drainage media (drain gravel in the bottom liner section and CDN in the side slope section of each\n4 cell) will convey leachate by gravity to the leachate collection piping and to the LCRS sump area. The\n5 leachate collection piping system in both cells will have one 12-inch diameter HDPE slotted pipe running\n6 the length of the cell centerline from south to north. This main collector pipe will be sloped at 1 percent\n7 and will convey leachate from the south edge of the cell to the LCRS sump at the north end, where the\n8 bottom liner will intersect the side slope liner. The main collection pipe will change to solid pipe at the\n9 bottom of the side slope, continue up the side slope, and terminate at a cleanout, located just south of the\n10 crest pad building. Leachate in the sump will be collected through perforated pipes for the LCRS low\n11 flow and high flow pumps, which will be 12-inch and 18-inch HDPE slotted pipe, respectively. The riser\n12 pipes will protect the pumps and separate them from the surrounding drain gravel, allow removal and re-\n13 insertion of the pumps for maintenance, and provide a high inflow-rate screen for leachate to supply the\n14 pumps. A small-diameter pipe (housing a transducer to control the on/off levels for the pumps) will run\n15 from the LCRS sump up the side slope to the crest pad building.\n16 The slotted portion of the riser pipes will extend from the toe of the side slope to the end of the LCRS\n17 sump area. The transducer pipe will also be slotted but for a shorter distance in the LCRS sump,\n18 whereupon it will be solid for the remaining distance to the crest pad building. A solid HDPE pipe (of the\n19 same diameter as the slotted portion of the pump riser pipes) will extend from the intersection of the side\n20 slope and bottom liner to the top of the shine berm where the pipes enter the crest pad building.\n21 Pipe cleanouts will be provided at both ends of the main collection pipe in the center of each cell. The\n22 cleanout at the north end of Phase I, near the crest pad building, will be permanently available throughout\n23 the life of the IDF to allow access for cleaning and/or video inspection. The cleanout at the south end of\n24 the cell will also be available for cleaning and access, but only during the operation of Phase I. It will be\n25 removed and the Phase II collection pipe will be butt-fused to the pipe as the Phase II cell is brought\n26 online. Ultimately, a permanent cleanout will be installed at the south end of Phase IV, to allow cleaning\n27 and inspection of half of the collection pipe, with the other half being accessed by the permanent cleanout\n28 located at the crest pad building on the north side of Phase I.\n29 Access to the riser pipes for cleanout or inspection, in the unlikely event this is needed, will be through\n30 the access points used for removal and re-insertion of the pumps within the crest pad building.\n31 6.4.1.2 Design Considerations\n32 The material chosen for piping within the Phase I lined area was HDPE , made of resin meeting the\n33 requirements of ASTM D3350 for PE 3408 material, with a cell classification of 345434C or higher.\n34 Design calculations were based on this material and pipe type, which is routinely used for leachate\n35 collection and disposal facilities and other applications. The pipe material is well suited for use in\n36 disposal facilities because of its high strength, high resistance to degradation from leachate constituents,\n37 and superior characteristics compared to all other readily available pipe materials. HDPE compatibility\n38 with leachate and the presence of radioactivity in the waste overlying the pipe were evaluated and\n39 discussed previously in Section 5.6.\n40 The diameter of the riser pipes was chosen to provide ample clearance for the pumps to be inserted and\n41 removed on a routine basis, and specifically so that the pumps will have sufficient clearance when\n42 traveling through the angle points at the intersection of the bottom liner and side slope, and clearance at\n43 the radius transition from the side slope to the crest pad building. The pumps (described in Section 6.4.3)\n44 are specifically designed for this type of leachate collection system, where the riser pipes allow insertion\n45 of pumps down a side slope and into a sump area.\n46 Lateral drainage media in the bottom liner and side slope liner, and the leachate collection piping system\n47 were chosen and configured to meet the regulatory requirement of no more than 12 inches of leachate\n48 head buildup over the sump area of the bottom liner as a result of a 25-year, 24-hour storm event.\nAppendix 4A.1.87\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The slots in the slotted pipe were designed to both be compatible with the granular material in the drain\n2 gravel and to allow a high rate of flow from the surrounding lateral drainage layers into the pipe. Slots\n3 were sized at 0.128 inches wide, with five rows of slots spaced equidistant around the perimeter of the\n4 pipe, and eleven slots per foot of pipe.\n5 The thickness of the pipes expressed as the SDR (standard dimension ratio) was chosen to resist the\n6 highest estimated load for the IDF in its final configuration, including final cover and equipment loading\n7 (internal pressure was not a factor since the pipe will convey flow by gravity, and under the expected flow\n8 rates the pipes will only be partially full). A SDR of 17 was chosen for all piping to handle the maximum\n9 estimated load. In addition, a blanket of manufactured drain gravel will be placed around and to the sides\n10 of all collection piping and compacted to a firm, unyielding condition consistent with the soil modulus\n11 values used in the pipe loading calculations.\n12 All piping will be butt-fused for maximum strength, and all fittings, whether available molded from the\n13 manufacturer or fabricated, will have the same or higher pressure rating than the pipe. During\n14 construction, piping will be butt-fused by certified technicians, using welding equipment approved by the\n15 manufacturer. All solid pipe will be pressure tested, even though the collection piping will see little or no\n16 internal pressure during gravity conveyance of leachate.\n17 6.4.2 Leachate Transfer Piping\n18 6.4.2.1 Description\n19 At each cell, the leachate transfer piping will begin with the piping from the pumps in the LCRS and LDS\n20 sumps to the crest pad building. From the crest pad building, transfer piping will connect the leachate\n21 transfer building, storage tank, and tanker truck load facility. All underground transfer piping outside the\n22 Phase I liner limits will be double contained, that is the pressure pipe conveying leachate between various\n23 facilities will be contained in an outer pipe. The pressure pipe in the center of the double containment\n24 piping will be termed carrier pipe, while the outer pipe will be termed containment pipe. In the event of a\n25 leak in the carrier pipe, the containment pipe or leak detection pipes draining the containment pipes will\n26 convey the leakage to a combined sump facility for detection, sampling, and transfer. Any accumulation\n27 of leachate in the combined sump will be pumped through a transfer pipe to the storage tank. Piping\n28 within the crest pad building, transfer building, truck load facility, and combined sump, will not be double\n29 contained because the buildings or facilities will provide secondary containment and have sumps present\n30 to remove any leachate that accumulates as a result of leaking pipes or appurtenances. Leak detection\n31 pipes draining containment pipes and the leak detection pipe from the storage tank will be single pipes\n32 because they only will convey leakage and will not function as transfer piping (required to have double\n33 containment).\n34 The transfer piping system also will include valves, fittings, flow meters, and other appurtenances\n35 necessary for operational functions for systems described in Sections 6.4.3, 6.4.4, and 6.4.5.\n36 6.4.2.2 Design Considerations\n37 All transfer piping outside of buildings will meet the same requirements as the HDPE pipe chosen for the\n38 leachate collection piping (described in Section 6.4.1). Single pipe and containment pipe exposed to earth\n39 and traffic loading will be SDR 17, while the carrier pipe, that will not be exposed to earth or traffic\n40 loading, will be SDR 21, with a pressure rating of 80 psi and a safety factor of 2 for the highest expected\n41 operating pressure in the system (SDR 17 piping has a pressure rating of 100 psi). All piping will be\n42 butt-fused except for the transfer piping from the LCRS and LDS sump pumps. This pipe will be HDPE,\n43 with quick release fittings to allow removal of the pumps from the sumps. Fittings will be pressure rated\n44 and re-useable. As the pumps are withdrawn from the sumps and moved up the riser pipes, each joint in\n45 the pipe will be unhinged to allow the pipe to be removed in 8-foot sections.\n46 Piping inside buildings will be PVC, schedule 80, with solvent welded fittings. This pipe and\n47 classification is rated for higher pressure than required with a factor of safety of 8. PVC was chosen for\n48 application inside buildings because of its relative ease of fabrication with the solvent weld joint system.\nAppendix 4A.1.88\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Flange connections will be used between pumps and piping; valves and other appurtenances and piping;\n2 and joints between PVC and HDPE piping. Appurtenances will include air release valves to allow\n3 purging of any air trapped in the piping system, magnetic flow meters for measuring flow to the tanker\n4 truck load output and to and from the leachate storage tanks, and valves for flow control and diversion of\n5 flow between the various facilities. The flow control scheme and control logic for the transfer piping\n6 system are described in Section 6.4.5.\n7 6.4.3 Leachate System Pumps\n8 Three submersible leachate pumps will be required for each cell. For convenience and operational\n9 versatility, roller-mounted pumps were selected for all leachate removal facilities. The submersible\n10 pumps are standard stainless steel well pumps that have been installed within a screened stainless steel\n11 cylinder fitted with rollers. The configuration will allow the pumps to be installed from the crest pad\n12 building within riser piping that follows the slope of the landfill until the riser piping bends horizontally\n13 to terminate within the cell sump at the toe of slope. This type of pump can be lowered into the leachate\n14 sump through the riser pipe and removed as needed, using a winch mounted within the crest pad building.\n15 Each pump will have its foot valve removed to prevent freezing or retaining of the leachate in the pump\n16 discharge piping. Advantages of this type of pump include easy access for maintenance and inspection,\n17 no power equipment required to remove/install, and its small size will lend itself to being inserted within\n18 a curved riser pipe and evacuating nearly all of the leachate within the cell sump. Each pump will have\n19 the capability to pump either to the storage tank or truck loading station.\n20 6.4.3.1 LCRS Pumps\n21 Two of the three submersible pumps will be installed within the LCRS sump area of each cell above the\n22 primary liner. These pumps are required to maintain less than 12 inches of hydraulic head above the\n23 primary liner, per regulatory requirements. The pumps will be installed in a 6-inch depression within the\n24 LCRS, in order to minimize the area of permanent leachate storage at pump shutoff and allow full pump\n25 operation through the 12-inch maximum liner head zone over the primary liner. Only in the localized\n26 area of the LCRS sump depression will a maximum leachate head of 18 inches cover the primary liner.\n27 The leachate head over the primary liner will be maintained at or below 12 inches in the main sump area\n28 and throughout the landfill. One low-flow pump is required for typical pumping of leachate; a high-flow\n29 pump is necessary in the event that a large storm (24-hour, 25-year storm event) exceeds the capacity of\n30 the low-flow pump.\n31 The selection of the low-flow pump was based on the average leachate flow from the landfill, determined\n32 in the leachate production analysis (Section 5.8.1). The analysis indicated that the maximum leachate\n33 flow, based on monthly data, is approximately 13 gpm. The hydraulics of the low-flow pump was\n34 modeled and a pump was selected, based on the hydraulic characteristics of the piping system and the\n35 required flow rate, determined in the leachate system hydraulics analysis (Section 5.9.2.1). An EPG\n36 Companies, Inc. (EPG) model WSD 3-3 (or equal) with a 0.5-horsepower motor was selected for the\n37 LCRS low-flow pump.\n38 The selection of the high-flow pump was based on the 24-hour, 25-year storm event, determined in the\n39 leachate production analysis (Section 5.8.1). The analysis indicated that the high-flow pump capacity\n40 necessary to remove the leachate per regulatory guidelines is approximately 160 gpm. The hydraulics of\n41 the high-flow pump was modeled and a pump was selected, based on the hydraulic characteristics of the\n42 piping system and the required flow rate, determined in the leachate system hydraulics analysis\n43 (Section 5.9.2.1). An EPG model WSD 30-3 (or equal) with a 7.5-horsepower motor was selected for the\n44 LCRS high-flow pump.\n45 6.4.3.2 LDS Pump\n46 The third submersible pump will be installed within each cell in the LDS sump, under the primary liner\n47 and above the secondary liner.\nAppendix 4A.1.89\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI This pump will detect and recover leachate that has leaked through the primary liner by pumping the\n2 leachate to the crest pad building. This pump was sized for low leachate generation flows.\n3 The hydraulics of the LDS pump were modeled and a pump was selected that can produce 4 gpm, based\n4 on the hydraulic characteristics of the piping system and the required flow rate, identified in the leachate\n5 system hydraulics analysis (Section 5.9.2.1). An EPG model 1.5-3 (or equal) with a 0.5-horsepower\n6 motor was selected for the LDS pump.\n7 6.4.3.3 Crest Pad Building Sump Pump\n8 The sump pump within the crest pad building will be a submersible floor sump, activated by float\n9 switches within the floor sump. The function of the sump pump is to remove leachate that accumulates in\n10 the crest pad building as a result of unexpected spills or pipe leaks. The pump discharges water to the\n11 leachate storage tank via the crest pad building discharge piping.\n12 The hydraulics of the sump pump was modeled and a pump was specified, based on the hydraulic\n13 characteristics of the piping system and the required flow rate identified in the leachate system hydraulics\n14 analysis (Section 5.9.2.1).\n15 6.4.3.4 Leachate Transfer Pump\n16 The leachate storage tank will be drained by using the leachate transfer pump, located in the leachate\n17 transfer building. The pump was sized to deliver a capacity of 250 gpm to the truck loading station,\n18 where it will discharge into a tanker truck. The typical volume allowed in a tanker truck is 7,000 gallons,\n19 corresponding to a loading time of approximately 30 minutes.\n20 The hydraulics of the leachate transfer pump was modeled and a pump was selected, based on the\n21 hydraulic characteristics of the piping system and the required flow rate, identified in the leachate system\n22 hydraulics analysis (Section 5.9.2.1). A standard horizontal centrifugal pump, Paco model 30707 (or\n23 equal) with a 3-horsepower motor was selected for the leachate transfer pump.\n24 6.4.3.5 Combined Sump Pump\n25 The combined sump will be a 76-inch-diameter HDPE manhole with a 42 inch diameter HDPE manhole\n26 placed inside. The outer manhole will have a height of approximately 8 feet, and the inner manhole\n27 height will be approximately 6 feet. The secondary containment portion of all the buried HDPE pipelines,\n28 leachate tank, and leachate transfer building floor sump will drain to the annular space (leak detection\n29 chamber) between the two manholes. The leak detection chamber will include instrumentation to detect\n30 leachate and alarm accordingly. The sumps installed within the truck loading slab typically will collect\n31 precipitation that drains off the slab. The precipitation will be conveyed directly to the inner manhole of\n32 the combined sump, where the combined sump pump will be located. The combined sump pump then\n33 will pump the precipitation to the leachate storage tank.\n34 The combined sump pump was conservatively sized for a capacity of 250 gpm. This large capacity was\n35 chosen based on an off-normal event that assumed the tanker truck was overtopped during leachate\n36 transfer activities, resulting in 250 gpm flowing into the inner sump. Another off-normal event\n37 considered was the remote possibility that the leachate tank primary liner failed catastrophically. This\n38 flow of leachate could eventually inundate the leak detection chamber and overflow into the inner\n39 manhole.\n40 The hydraulics of the combined sump pump was modeled and a pump was selected based on the\n41 hydraulic characteristics of the piping system and the required flow rate, identified in the leachate system\n42 hydraulics analysis (Section 5.9.2.1). A Hydromatic model SB3S (or equal) with a 3-horsepower motor\n43 was selected for the combined sump pump.\nAppendix 4A. 1.90\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.4.4 Leachate Temporary Storage Tank\n2 6.4.4.1 Tank Volume\n3 A leachate temporary storage tank is required for each cell. The working capacity of each tank is 375,000\n4 gallons that include a 1.5 safety factor. This volume is based on the results of the leachate production\n5 analysis (Section 5.8.1) and the leachate collection storage analyses (Section 5.9.2.4). The storage tank\n6 capacity is dependent on the net volume of leachate accumulation in the tank from flow into and out of\n7 the tank. The flow out of the tank via the leachate transfer pump is based on several assumptions,\n8 described in Section 5.9.2.4. Actual leachate transfer operations will affect the tank volume safety factor.\n9 6.4.4.2 Tank Design\n10 A bolted, corrugated steel tank, approximately 100 feet in diameter with a side wall height of 8 feet\n11 2 inches, was selected for use as the leachate temporary storage tank. The tank will include a dual\n12 containment liner system that will act as the floor of the tank and will be bolted to the top of the tank side\n13 wall. The tank will be open-topped with a floating geomembrane cover to keep precipitation, debris, and\n14 wildlife from contacting the leachate.\n15 The tank side wall will be bolted to a 1.5-foot thick, 4-foot-deep concrete ringwall to resist hydrostatic\n16 pressure of the leachate water. In addition, the top edge of the tank ringwall will include angle bracing,\n17 bolted around the tank perimeter to provide rigidity in the side wall to resist wind loads on the exterior of\n18 the tank. The maximum operating level of the tank is approximately 6 feet 2 inches; however, the tank is\n19 designed for a maximum water level of 8 feet 2 inches.\n20 The inlet piping for the tank will be through the side wall of the tank. The inlets will all be located near\n21 the top of the tank, above the maximum leachate water operating level. This is to ensure that a siphon\n22 cannot develop in the inlet piping. Check valves will be installed throughout the system; however, if\n23 piping between the check valve and the tank leaked into the secondary containment system, there would\n24 not be an easy method of stopping the flow if the pipe was below the water surface of the tank.\n25 The outlet pipe for the tank will be through the side wall, near the bottom of the tank. This method was\n26 chosen to provide a flooded suction for the leachate transfer pump that will provide added protection\n27 against pump damage.\n28 6.4.4.3 Tank Liners\n29 The tank liners will be constructed with an XR-5 geomembrane. XR-5 is a proprietary geomembrane\n30 manufactured by Seaman Corporation. XR-5 is the preferred liner of several tank manufacturers due to\n31 its higher strength properties and lower thermal expansion coefficient, as compared to HDPE\n32 geomembrane. As such, it is more readily constructible in the tank configuration, and it does not expand\n33 and contract as much as HDPE, so it's operating performance over the temperature range at Hanford\n34 should be improved. For the exposed condition at the IDF tanks, this is an important consideration.\n35 HDPE was considered for use as the tank liner system, but its high coefficient of expansion will not lend\n36 itself to the temperature extremes that the liner system will be subjected to and also it is not reinforced\n37 like the XR-5. The expansion and contraction of an HDPE liner exposed to the environment could put\n38 undue strain at the inlet and outlet connections as well as at the leak detection connection that could result\n39 in liner leakage.\n40 Chemical compatibility of leachate with the liner system is also a consideration for liner material\n41 selection for the leachate storage tanks. As discussed in Section 5.6.3.1, compatibility testing on HDPE\n42 geomembrane was performed with synthetic leachate for the W-025 landfill with no evidence of\n43 geomembrane deterioration. With regard to leachate compatibility, XR-5 is comparable to HDPE in\n44 terms of compatibility with typical leachate constituents. The geomembrane manufacturer requires\n45 immersion testing for conclusive compatibility determination. Testing of this type has not been\n46 performed, but the manufacturer is confident that immersion testing results will be acceptable since XR-5\n47 is generally comparable to HDPE.\nAppendix 4A. 1.91\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI To address the issue of chemical and radiation resistance for XR-5 with anticipated leachate constituents,\n2 an immersion test program is included in the technical specifications for the tank liner. Details are\n3 provided in Section 13205 of the technical specifications. This immersion testing program requires the\n4 construction general contractor to submit tank liner sample coupons to the design engineer for immersion\n5 testing, as part of the construction submittal process and certification of the tank liner.\n6 In addition, it should be noted that leachate compatibility is not as critical an issue for the tank system as\n7 compared to the landfill liner system. The leachate tank liner system will be subject to continuous\n8 monitoring through the tanks' LDS, as is the landfill liner system. The difference is that the tank liners\n9 will be subject to routine maintenance and inspection that will be developed around liner warranty,\n10 performance observation, and manufacturer's requirements. Operation and maintenance procedures for\n11 the tank will be established that require that the tanks be drained, sediment removed, and the liner\n12 inspected for holes and seam integrity. Since liner performance guarantees are required in the technical\n13 specifications for the tank manufacturer for three years following installation, it is likely that the\n14 inspection program would be initially set up around this time frame and gradually be increased over the\n15 life cycle of the tank. Replacement of the leachate tank liner system is anticipated periodically\n16 throughout the life cycle of the landfill.\n17 The tank lining system is a double-lined system. The primary and secondary tank liners will include a\n18 LDS beneath the primary tank liner. The LDS consists of a HDPE drainage net with a geotextile material,\n19 laminated to the drainage net that cushions the XR-5 liner. A geotextile material will also be used\n20 between the secondary liner and the inside face of the tank shell to create a cushion for the XR-5 against\n21 the tank shell and tank shell bolt heads. The bolt heads are also recessed for further liner protection.\n22 6.4.4.4 Tank Leak Containment System\n23 The HDPE drainage net between the primary and secondary liner will allow leachate that leaks through\n24 the primary liner to drain to the center of the tank. At the center of the tank under the secondary liner will\n25 be a depression in the underlying granular backfill that will form a shallow sump. The leak detection pipe\n26 will connect to the secondary liner at this sump location and convey leaking leachate to the leak detection\n27 chamber of the combined sump.\n28 The tank inlet and outlet penetrations will be areas susceptible to leaks as a result of penetrations through\n29 the primary liner. Additional robust methods for sealing these locations were added over and above the\n30 typical manufacturer recommendations in an effort to make sure that these will not be points of leakage.\n31 6.4.5 Pump Controls and System Instrumentation\n32 The process and instrumentation diagrams for Cell I and Cell 2 are shown on Drawing H-2-830854,\n33 sheets I through 4. Detailed information regarding the instrumentation and control system, equipment\n34 listing, instrument listing, and loop descriptions can be found in the technical specifications, Section\n35 13401 (Process Instrumentation and Control System).\n36 6.4.5.1 Crest Pad Building\n37 The leachate pumps within the landfill will be automatically controlled, based on leachate level set points\n38 within the cell sump. The level transducer that controls the LCRS pumps will be inserted into the sump\n39 via a slope riser pipe. The level transducer that controls the LDS pump is integral to the LDS pump.\n40 Leachate pumped by the leachate pumps will be monitored by a flow-indicating totalizer within the crest\n41 pad building. Controls will be in place to stop automatically the leachate pumps operation if alarm\n42 conditions are present for the leachate storage tank high-high level, leak alarm in the crest pad building\n43 sump, or a leak alarm in the combined sump.\n44 The crest pad building sump pump will be automatically controlled by float switches within the building\n45 floor sump. In addition, a leak detection switch will be installed in the floor sump that will be capable of\n46 detecting small quantities of water in the sump before the float switches. This feature will add an extra\n47 level of conservatism to make sure unexpected spills are identified and controlled immediately.\nAppendix 4A. 1.92\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Controls will be in place to stop automatically the crest pad building sump pump operation if alarm\n2 conditions are present for the leachate storage tank high-high level or for a leak alarm in the combined\n3 sump.\n4 6.4.5.2 Leachate Transfer Building\n5 The leachate transfer pump will be manually controlled except for automatic shut-off during specific\n6 alarm events. Controls will be in place to stop automatically the transfer pump operation if alarm\n7 conditions are present for the leachate storage tank low-low level or for leak alarm in the combined sump.\n8 Additional instrumentation (associated with the leachate transfer pump) will include a flow meter\n9 (measuring rate and total volume) and transmitter on the discharge of the leachate transfer pump. In\n10 addition, a local totalizer will be in the leachate transfer building to know exactly how much water is\n11 being transferred to the tanker truck. This totalizer will include a reset function to allow the total to be\n12 reset to zero, prior to every truck loading event.\n13 6.4.5.3 Leachate Storage Tank\n14 Instrumentation within the leachate storage tank will be contained within two vertical stilling wells that\n15 will penetrate through openings in the floating cover. The stilling wells will be small diameter pipe with\n16 perforations near the bottom that will allow the leachate within the stilling well to rise and fall with the\n17 level of the leachate in the tank. Analog instrumentation within one stilling well will provide a signal to\n18 the control system for alarm interlocks and constant monitoring of tank level. The second stilling well\n19 will contain discrete instrumentation for high-high and low-low alarm set point trips. The discrete\n20 instrumentation will provide conservatism in the off chance that the analog signal malfunctions, allowing\n21 the leachate level to reach extreme high or low levels.\n22 6.4.5.4 Combined Sump\n23 The combined sump pump will be automatically controlled by float switches within the inner manhole of\n24 the combined sump. Controls will also be in place to stop automatically the combined sump pump\n25 operation if alarm conditions are present for the leachate storage tank high-high level. A leak detection\n26 switch also will be installed within the leak detection chamber that will be capable of detecting a small\n27 quantity of water. The leak detection switch will provide a signal to the control system that automatically\n28 will shut down all the cell pumps except the combined sump pump. The pumps will be shut down\n29 because any one of the pipelines associated with the pumps could be leaking into the leak detection\n30 chamber. Operations will then need to determine which secondary containment pipeline supplied the\n31 water that drained into the leak detection chamber.\n32 6.4.6 Process Instrument Control System (PICS)\n33 6.4.6.1 Introduction\n34 This section provides a summary of the PICS design and construction elements of the project, providing\n35 introduction and reference to the project layout and key design components for the following IDF\n36 facilities:\n37 * IDF leachate collection and handling crest pad facilities (two each)\n38 * IDF leachate storage tank and leachate transfer facilities (two each)\n39 * IDF truck loading facilities (two each)\n40 The PICS design identifies, specifies and integrates PICS components to automatically monitor and\n41 control IDF process control equipment and facilities including:\n42 * LCRS\n43 * LDS\n44 * Crest pad and leachate transfer building environmental controls\n45 * Leachate storage tank system\nAppendix 4A. 1.93\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Leachate transfer and truck loading system\n2 * Combined sump system\n3 * Secondary containment LDS\n4 6.4.6.2 Key Design Components (Elements)\n5 PICS design and construction elements of the project incorporate the following key PICS design\n6 components for each IDF facility:\n7 * Instrumentation for continuous analog process monitoring\n8 * Instrumentation for discrete process monitoring\n9 * Instruments and programmed safety interlocks and alarming\n10 * Programmable logic controller (PLC) system\n11 * Operator Interface Unit (OIU)\n12 * Communication Local Area Network (LAN)\n13 * PICS application software\n14 * Main and local control panels\n15 * Uninterruptible power supply\n16 6.4.6.3 Open Items\n17 The IDF Phase I Critical Systems design documents do not identify the following items:\n18 * Identification of communication LAN from IDF control panels to central supervisory control and\n19 data acquisition (SCADA)\n20 * Extension of communication LAN from IDF control panels to central SCADA\n21 These items are scheduled to be addressed during the IDF Phase I Non-Critical design of the project.

Process signals from each instrument are monitored for the purpose of\n36 controlling, displaying, recording, and alarming all process data. PICS instrumentation will be wired\n37 directly into PLC input modules (i.e., Allen-Bradley 1746 1/0 modules).\n38 6.4.6.6 Instrumentation\n39 The PICS design identifies all set-point adjustments as being programmed into the PLC via the OIU\n40 architecture.

The PICS design identifies level discrete instrumentation, consisting of magnetic float switches\n24 that will enable operators to monitor discrete liquid levels inside the following:\n25 * Crest pad building sump\n26 * Combine sump\n27 * Combine sump interstitial\n28 The PICS design identifies operator instrumentation, consisting of switches, indicating lights, and control\n29 relays that will enable operators to monitor the following discrete status:\n30 * Crest pad building and control power status\n31 * Landfill LCRS pumps ON/OFF, AUTO and FAIL status\n32 * Landfill LDS pumps (on/off, auto, and fail) status\n33 * Combined process sump pump (on/off, auto, and fail) status\n34 * Leachate transfer pump (on/off, auto, and fail) status\n35 6.4.6.9 PICS Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Architecture\n36 The PICS design identifies PLC architecture designed around Allen Bradley Ethernet small logic control\n37 technologies. PLC architecture consists of the following:\n38 * PLC processor\n39 * PLC input/output (1/0) modules\n40 * PLC ancillary power supplies, chassis and cabling\n41 * PLC application and development software and hardware\nAppendix 4A. 1.95\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * The PLC processor is the microprocessor-based device that uses programmable ladder logic for\n2 implementing process monitoring and control, emulating the functions of conventional panel-\n3 mounted equipment such as relays, timers, counters, current switches, calculation modules,\n4 Proportional, Integral and Derivative controllers, stepping switches, and drum programmers.\n5 * PLC(s) are programmed to interface with instrumentation and process motor control equipment.\n6 PICS PLC(s) are programmed to automatically operate (start/stop) all process control equipment\n7 as well as process flow totals, equipment runtime, operation alarms, equipment, and building\n8 status.\n9 * Instrument architecture (analog and discrete control devices) interface with PLC via PLC 1/0\n10 modules, installed in a common chassis with the PLC power supply.\n11 * The type of I/O modules utilized include analog (4-20 mA) input, 24VDC discrete input, and\n12 120VAC/ 24VDC discrete output.\n13 * The PICS design identifies PLC application software that provides functions unique to the project\n14 and not provided by PLC system software alone, such as programmable controller ladder logic,\n15 math operations on input process variables (scaling, alarming, totalizing, comparisons).\n16 * The PICS design identifies PLC standard system software packages that enable personnel to\n17 communicate and program PLC processor and configure I/O modules. PLC development and\n18 application software reside on the programming laptop from which the application is downloaded\n19 into the PLC processor.\n20 The PICS design identifies communication protocols establishing data exchange between PLC,\n21 programming laptop, OIU architecture, and future remote SCADA as follows:\n22 * Allen Bradley RS-232, RS-4585, and DFi\n23 * Ethernet\n24 6.4.6.10 PICS Operator Interface (OIU) Architecture\n25 The PICS design identifies OIU architecture that allows operators to visually monitor process system data\n26 and interface with the facility's programmable logic controllers. OIU enables operators to view alarms\n27 and change process set points.\n28 PICS OIU architecture is designed around Allen Bradley PanelView, communicating with PLC\n29 architecture over a communication local area network. OIU architecture includes:\n30 * OIU assembly\n31 * Local area network copper cabling\n32 * OIU application and standard system software\n33 * The PICS design identifies OIU application software that provides functions unique to the project\n34 and not provided by system software alone. These include, but are not limited to, programmable\n35 controller ladder logic, databases, reports, control strategies, graphical display screens, and\n36 operation scripts.\n37 * The PICS design identifies OIU standard system software packages that enable personnel to\n38 communicate and program OlU. OIU application and standard system software reside on the\n39 programming laptop from which the application is downloaded into the OIU processor.\n40 6.4.6.11 PICS Communication LAN Architecture\n41 The PICS design identifies communication between PLC processors, OlU, programming laptop, and\n42 future IDF SCADA over a local area network consisting of a local 10/100 MBPS Ethernet switch, local\n43 PLC, OIU LAN drivers, and a cable system. The PLC processor and OIU are addressable over the LAN,\n44 allowing each device to share data and control points between each other and future devices.\nAppendix 4A. 1.96\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.4.6.12 Back Up Power\n2 The PICS design identifies UPS mounted inside each main control panel. UPS(s) was sized to enable\n3 PLC and OIU networks to maintain monitoring of process control systems during a power failure as well\n4 as provide for an orderly shutdown. UPS does NOT power process control equipment such as solenoids,\n5 instruments, motorized valves, pumps, and motors.\n6 6.4.6.13 Control Panels\n7 The PICS design identifies the main control panel, mounted inside each crest pad building housing PLC\n8 processor and associated I/O modules, ancillary power supplies, termination devices, UPS, and control\n9 circuit protection devices. OIU and process flow and level indicators are mounted on front doors of\n10 control panels.\n11 The PICS design identifies local control panels, integrating discrete level instrumentation, control relays,\n12 intrinsic safety relays, and providing interlock signals between PLC architecture and MCC pump controls.\n13 6.5 Stormwater Management\n14 The proposed stormwater system to be constructed just south of the south end of the Phase I excavation\n15 will intercept stormwater runoff from the area to the south for the 24-hour, 25-year storm event so that it\n16 will not flow into the Phase I excavation and will discharge the intercepted stormwater into the ground via\n17 infiltration. This system will consist of the south stormwater berm/ditch, two culverts, and the east and\n18 west infiltration areas. The berm will be two feet high above the existing ground surface. The minimum\n19 combined depth of the berm and ditch will be two feet. The ditch will be V-shaped with 3:1 side slopes.\n20 The culverts will be 18-inch-diameter, corrugated polyethylene pipe with smooth interior. Geotextile and\n21 quarry spalls will be placed around each end of the culverts to provide erosion protection. The east and\n22 west infiltration areas will have bottom lengths of 220 and 225 feet, respectively. Each of the infiltration\n23 areas will have a bottom elevation of 719 feet and a bottom width of 15 feet. In order to allow access for\n24 future maintenance into each of these infiltration areas, their north and south ends will be sloped at 15\n25 percent and surfaced with quarry spalls placed on a geotextile.\n26 The proposed stormwater system to be constructed at the south toe of slope within the Phase I excavation\n27 will intercept stormwater runoff from the unlined portions of the excavation for the 24-hour, 25-year\n28 storm event so that it will not flow into the active cells and will discharge the intercepted stormwater into\n29 the ground via infiltration. This system will consist of the excavation stormwater berm/ditch, a\n30 stormwater pipe, one catch basin, and the excavation infiltration area. There also will be a flow path\n31 along the south side of the access ramp that will continue along the south side of the flat area at the base\n32 of the access ramp and into the southwest corner of the excavation infiltration area. The south stormwater\n33 berm/ditch will slope to drain to the east. The combined depth of the berm and ditch will be two feet.\n34 The stormwater berm will be 2 feet high at its west end, and the corresponding depth of the ditch will be\n35 zero. The berm will gradually reduce in height as the depth of the ditch increases. The berm will end\n36 when the ditch depth reaches 2 feet. The ditch will be V-shaped with 3:1 side slope on the south and 2:1\n37 side slope on the north. The stormwater pipe will be 18-inch-diameter corrugated polyethylene pipe with\n38 smooth interior. Geotextile and quarry spalls will be placed around each exposed end of the stormwater\n39 pipe to provide erosion protection. The catch basin will be used to lower the elevation of the stormwater\n40 pipe so that there will be adequate cover over the pipe for protection against wheel loads. The infiltration\n41 area will have a bottom elevation of 678 feet, a bottom width of 15 feet, and a bottom length of 50 feet.\n42 In order to allow access for future maintenance into this infiltration area, the west end will be sloped at 15\n43 percent and surfaced with quarry spalls placed on a geotextile.\n44 If the water builds up in the east or west infiltration area, it will eventually flow out of the north end of the\n45 infiltration area. The water would flow overland, north along the toe of the fill for the berm access road,\n46 and continue generally northward.\n47 If the water builds up in the excavation infiltration area so that it extends into the ditch, then the operator\n48 will have to bring in a portable pump and pump the water into the east infiltration area.\nAppendix 4A. 1.97\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Maintenance for each of the infiltration areas, the ditches, and the ends of each of the culverts and\n2 stormwater pipes will be primarily to remove accumulated sediment and debris.\n3 6.6 Building Systems\n4 6.6.1 .Crest Pad Buildings\n5 The crest pad building is designed as a pre-engineered, rigid frame metal building on a slab-on grade\n6 foundation. The building slab is separated into two portions. The lower portion of the slab is where the\n7 piping associated with the leachate pipe will be contained, and the higher slab is where the electrical and\n8 control equipment will be located. The slab where the leachate piping will be located is lowered to create\n9 a containment area for the leachate. Construction joints within this area have waterstops to ensure that\n10 leachate cannot egress through the construction joints. Additionally, a sump has been placed to drain the\n11 containment area, if required. The entire floor and sump area also is to be coated to provide even greater\n12 resistance to the leachate.\n13 6.6.2 Leachate Transfer Buildings\n14 The leachate transfer building is designed as a pre-engineered, self-framing metal building on a slab-on-\n15 grade foundation. The metal building is supported on an 8-inch curb that travels continuously around the\n16 exterior of the building. The curb is continuous, even through the door threshold, to provide a\n17 containment area for the leachate in case of spillage. In order to maintain conformance with building\n18 code requirements, a landing is used to eliminate the curb tripping hazard at the door threshold.\n19 Construction joints within this area have waterstops to ensure that leachate cannot egress through the\n20 construction joints. Additionally, a sump has been placed to drain the containment area, if required. The\n21 entire floor and sump area also is to be coated to provide even greater resistance to the leachate.\n22 6.6.3 Truck Loading Station\n23 The truck loading station is designed to receive trucks to load with leachate. The station is essentially a\n24 slab-on-grade. The station is designed to contain minor spillage of leachate by sloping the floor slab\n25 towards the center and using rounded curbs at the slab entrance and exits. Two sumps will be placed in\n26 the center of the station to drain the station as required. The entire floor and sump area also is to be\n27 coated to provide even greater resistance to the leachate.\n28 6.7 Electrical Service and Lighting\n29 6.7.1 Introduction\n30 This section provides a summary of the electrical design and construction elements of the project,\n31 providing introduction and reference to the project layout and key design components for the following\n32 IDF facilities:\n33 * IDF leachate collection and handling crest pad facilities (two each)\n34 * IDF leachate storage tank and leachate transfer facilities (two each)\n35 * IDF truck loading facilities (two each)\n36 The electrical design identifies, specifies, and integrates power distribution systems that incorporate\n37 transformers, breaker panels, motor control, safety switches, conductors, and lighting for the safe,\n38 reliable, and maintainable operation of IDF process and facility equipment including:\n39 * Process equipment (leachate collection and removal pump motors, leak detection pump motors,\n40 transfer pump motors, and instrumentation)\n41 0 Building facility equipment (lighting, power outlets, heating units, cooling fans, and building\n42 sump pumps)\n43 * Personnel and equipment safety systems (standby egress lighting, process alarm lighting, surge\n44 protection, and process piping heat trace)\n45 * Electrical design and installation shall be in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC, 2002)\nAppendix 4A. 1.98\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.7.2 Key Design Components (Elements)\n2 Key electrical design components (elements) for each IDF facility include:\n3 * Electrical secondary service and monitoring\n4 * Electrical secondary service and feeder protective device coordination\n5 * Electrical secondary service ground electrode system\n6 * Electrical service, equipment, and associated metal structures grounding\n7 * Electrical low voltage motor control\n8 * Facility maintenance outlets (standard, ground fault circuit interrupter [GFCI], weatherproof)\n9 * Facility interior, exterior, and egress safety lighting\n10 * Facility environmental control (heating and cooling)\n11 * Facility hazardous classification\n12 * Process equipment heat trace, ambient monitoring, and power indication\n13 * Facility electrical system surge and phase protection\n14 * Materials and methods of electrical construction (i.e., conduit, wire, control and safety device,\n15 and enclosure selection)\n16 6.7.3 Open Items\n17 IDF Phase I Critical System design documents do not identify the following primary and secondary\n18 electrical service items:\n19 * Exact location of primary 13.8 kV, 3-phase tie-in\n20 * Exact value of available primary short circuit current at primary tie-in location\n21 * Exact length of primary extension\n22 * Exact location, size, and impedance of utility step-down 13.8 kV -480/277V, 3-phase, 4-wire\n23 pad mounted transformer(s)\n24 6.7.4 Assumptions to Open Items\n25 These items are scheduled to be addressed during the IDF Phase I Non-Critical design. As such, the\n26 following assumptions were made in order to complete the Phase I design:\n27 * Assume electrical service gear inside each Cell I and Cell 2 crest pad building are powered by\n28 separate pad mounted utility transformers.\n29 * Assume pad mounted utility transformers are rated 75 kVA and are installed within 100 feet of\n30 respective Cell I and Cell 2 crest pad buildings.\n31 * Assume each pad mounted utility transformer is radial fed from a common .13.8 kV primary\n32 feeder.\n33 * Assume each Cell I and Cell 2 leachate transfer building is powered from electrical service gear,\n34 located inside respective crest pad buildings.\n35 * Assume utility short-circuit contribution to be 100 MVA at 13.8 kV, three-phase.\n36 6.7.5 Crest Pad Building Electrical Secondary Service and Metering\n37 Electrical design identified 480 volt, 3-phase, 4-wire secondary service cables eventually powering a\n38 service-rated MCC mounted inside each crest pad building.\nAppendix 4A. 1.99\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nType Designation Configuration\nCell 1 Service rated MCC 219A-LH-MCC-001 480V, 3-4, 3-wire, 4-wire\nCell 2 Service rated MCC 219E-LH-MCC-001 480V, 3-4, 3-wire, 4-wire\n1 The service-rated MCC will operate as a main service gear, power distribution center, and motor control\n2 assembly.

In the event of a phase loss or phase reversal condition, the protection relay will shunt the MCC\n10 main service breaker. With main service breaker shunted (open), a UPS mounted inside each PICS main\n11 control panel will continue the operation of voltage sensitive PICS equipment (i.e., PLC, OIU, local area\n12 network communication), allowing for future remote alarming (future SCADA) and the safe shutdown of\n13 sensitive equipment.\n14 Incoming power is also monitored through the use of analog-style voltage and current meters. Operators\n15 will be able to observe operating status of incoming power by manually selecting analog-style voltage and\n16 current meters to Phase A, Phase B, and Phase C.\n17 MCC associated gear (frame, bussing, and feeder protective devices) were sized to adequately and safely\n18 handle the calculated design and demand operating loads, and to safely withstand calculated short circuit\n19 interrupting currents.\n20 6.7.6 Utilization Voltages\n21 The electrical design identified utilization voltages for the following equipment and systems:\nEquipment or System Voltage, Phase\nLighting 120 V, 1-4\nHeat trace 120 V, 1-4\nConvenience outlets 120 V, 1-4\nInstrumentation control circuits 24 V DC\nMotor control 120 V, 1-4\nAir conditioner 208 V, 1-4\nMotors, less than 1/3 hp 120 V, 1-4\nMotors, 1/3 hp and larger 480 V, 3-4\nUnit heaters 480 V, 3-4\nInstrument power 120V, 1-4\n22 6.7.7 Leachate Transfer Building Electrical Service\n23 The electrical design identified three phase motor loads inside leachate transfer buildings as being\n24 powered from MCC, located inside each crest pad building. Power will be routed from MCC to service-\n25 rated disconnect, wire-way, enclosed breaker, and mini-power center (panel/transformer assembly),\n26 located inside each leachate transfer building.\nType Designation Configuration\nCell 1 service-rated disconnect 219Al-LH-SW-002 480V, 3-4, 3-wire, 4-wire\nCell 2 service-rated disconnect 219El-LH-SW-002 480V, 3-4, 3-wire, 4-wire\nAppendix 4A. 1.100\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.7.8 Crest Pad and Leachate Transfer Building Lighting Panelboards\n2 The electrical design identified lighting panel boards installed in each IDF facility to provide 120/208V\n3 3- , 4-wire power to non-three-phase motor loads. Lighting panelboards will be fed from 480V-\n4 120/208V 3-, 4-wire step-down transformers. Lighting panelboards inside crest pad buildings will be\n5 mounted along with step-down transformers inside MCC. Lighting panelboards (mini-power centers,\n6 along with integral step-down transformers) inside leachate transfer buildings will be wall mounted.\nType Designation Configuration\nCell I crest pad building lighting panel 219A- LH-LP-001 120/208V, 3- , 4-wire\nCell 1 crest pad building lighting panel 219E- LH-LP-001 120/208V, 3- , 4-wire\nCell 1 leachate transfer building lighting panel 219Al- LH-LP-002 120/208V, 3- , 4-wire\nCell 2 leachate transfer building lighting panel 219E1- LH-LP-002 120/208V, 3- , 4-wire\n7 Lighting distribution panelboards will provide 120 volt power to all single-phase equipment including:\n8 * Building lighting\n9 0 Emergency lighting\n10 * Receptacles\n11 * Main control panel\n12 * Instrumentation will be powered from surge-protected circuit breakers inside each crest pad\n13 building main control panel.\n14 * Lighting distribution panelboards will provide 120/208 volt, single and three-phase power to\n15 equipment including the building air conditioner, and heat tracing for process piping.\n16 6.7.9 Feeder and Branch Circuits\n17 The electrical design identified feeder and branch circuit breakers and conductor's size, based upon\n18 connected and operating loads. Style of feeder and branch circuit breakers will be thermal-magnetic.\n19 6.7.10 Raceways\n20 480V power circuits-Standard rigid galvanized steel (RGS) in exposed locations, PVC conduit systems\n21 will be buried, RGS will be coated when conduits transition from below grade to above grade areas\n22 120V power circuits-Standard RGS in exposed locations, PVC conduit systems buried, RGS coated\n23 when conduits transition from below grade to above grade areas.\n24 6.7.11 Raceway Sizing, Selection, and Installation Guidelines\n25 The electrical design identified conduit wire fill and size, based upon THW (thermoplastic, vinyl\n26 insulated building wire; flame retardant, moisture and heat resistant, 750C, dry and wet locations)\n27 insulated conductors for wiring 600 volts and below. Minimum raceway sizes will be as follows in the\n28 designated locations:\nMinimum Raceway Size: Location:\n3/4-inch Exposed on walls and ceiling\n3/4-inch Concealed in frame construction and finished ceilings\n1-inch Underground for circuits below 600 volts, including instrumentation\n3-inch Fiber optic\n29 The electrical design identified underground raceways assemblies as concrete duct bank constructed.\n30 6.7.12 Wire and Cable\n31 The electrical design identified stranded copper conductors that will be used for all wiring, except for\n32 lighting and receptacle circuits where solid copper will be used.\nAppendix 4A.1.101\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Minimum conductor size of No. 12 will be used for power and lighting branch circuits.

FVNR combination motor starter assemblies\n14 will consist of thermal-magnetic, trip-molded case circuit breakers; full voltage combination starters;\n15 control power transformers; indicating lights; and control switches. All combination motor starters will\n16 be operated in AUTO mode by PICS.\n17 6.7.15 Overload Protection\n18 The electrical design identified each motor as being provided with thermal overload protection in all\n19 ungrounded phases.

The electrical design identified electrical service neutral, and\n24 the neutrals of derived sources, electrical equipment, and PICS control panels that will be bonded to\n25 grounding electrode systems.\n26 6.7.17 Equipment Grounding\n27 The electrical design identified noncurrent-carrying parts of all electrical equipment, devices,\n28 panelboards, and metallic raceways that will be bonded to grounding system.\n29 The electrical design identified noncurrent-carrying parts of all mechanical equipment, to which electrical\n30 components will be attached and may potentially become energized, that also will be bonded to the\n31 grounding system, including building metal structures and leachate storage tank.\n32 All conduits that will be provided have an equipment grounding conductor.\n33 6.7.18 Lighting\n34 The electrical design identified lighting fixtures that will be installed at each IDF facility to maintain an\n35 average 25-foot candle inside each building, and 5-foot candles at entrance doorways.\n36 Note: Interior lighting levels are based upon IES Lighting Handbook Indoor Industrial Areas\n37 Recommended Illuminance Levels for interior activities inside work spaces where visual tasks of medium\n38 to large contrast are to be performed on occasional basis.\n39 Note: Exterior entrance lighting levels are based upon IES Lighting Handbook Outdoor Site/Area\n40 Recommended Illuminance Levels for building exterior entrances frequently visited locations.\n41 6.7.19 Emergency Lighting System\n42 The electrical design identified emergency illumination (battery-pack wall-mounted units or luminaries\n43 powered by integral battery-powered ballasts) that will be provided in all IDF facilities.\nAppendix 4A.1.102\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.7.20 Circuiting and Switching\n2 The electrical design identified interior process area lighting, switched to provide adequate lighting.\n3 Exterior building lighting will be controlled by photocells.\n4 6.7.21 Heat Trace\n5 The electrical design identified electrical heat trace for above grade process piping freeze protection.\n6 Heat trace cable will be the self-limiting type with the overall system controlled by an ambient control\n7 thermostat. Heat trace design incorporates circuit power indication.\n8 6.7.22 Hazardous Classification\n9 The electrical design identified the interior of the combined sump as Class 1, Division 2 group,\n10 C hazardous. The electrical design for the combined sump will incorporate materials and intrinsic safety\n11 devices compatible for the installation of electrical equipment in Class 1, Division 2, Group C hazardous\n12 locations.\n13 6.8 Construction QA Requirements\n14 The Construction QA Plan describes the QA activities for constructing the Phase I IDF. QA activities\n15 will be required during construction to ensure the following:\n16 * Firm and stable foundation system for liners\n17 * Stability of dikes or embankments\n18 * Low permeability soil liners that inhibit contaminant migration\n19 * Geosynthetic layers that function as either a hydraulic barrier or a drainage system, depending on\n20 intended function\n21 * LCRS and LDS that remove leachate and control head on the lining systems\n22 * The Construction QA Plan has been prepared to describe the activities that will be performed\n23 during construction of the lining system, leachate collection system, and operation layer of Cell 1\n24 and Cell 2. The Construction QA Plan satisfies the regulatory requirements and guidance\n25 established in 40 CFR 264.19, the EPA technical guidance document, Quality Assurance and\n26 Quality Control for Waste Containment Facilities (EPA 1993), and WAC 173-303-335.\n27 The specific physical components that the WAC requires the Construction QA Plan to address include:\n28 * Foundations\n29 * Dikes\n30 * Low-permeability soil liners\n31 * Geomembranes\n32 * LCRS and LDS\n33 * Final cover systems\n34 * The WAC requires the Construction QA Plan to include the following:\n35 * Identification of applicable units and how they will be constructed\n36 * Identification of key personnel\n37 * Description of inspection and sampling activities\n38 The Construction QA Plan is intended to be implemented by an independent, qualified Construction QA\n39 certifying engineer, familiar with EPA's technical guidance document, Quality Assurance and Quality\n40 Control for Waste Containment Facilities, as well as the Construction QA Plan. The Construction QA\n41 certifying engineer will be supported by other Construction QA representatives, as necessary, to\n42 implement the requirements in the Construction QA Plan and document the work.\nAppendix 4A.1.103\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The Construction QA Plan establishes general administrative and documentation procedures that will be\n2 applicable for selected activities of construction. The Construction QA Plan addresses only those\n3 activities associated with the soils, geosynthetics, and related liner and leachate collection system piping\n4 components for the Phase I IDF landfill. Other aspects of construction, such as transmission piping,\n5 utilities, concrete, and storage tanks will require QA testing and oversight. These requirements are not\n6 mentioned in the Construction QA Plan, but they will be included in future construction inspection\n7 documents, accompanying the bid-ready drawings and specifications.\n8 6.9 Interface with Non-Critical Systems\n9 Critical systems for the Phase I IDF include three primary design components:\n10 * Liner systems\n11 * LCRS\n12 * LDS\n13 In addition, the Phase I IDF detailed design also involves completing all design work required for an\n14 operable landfill.\n15 Non-critical systems for the Phase I IDF include the following components:\n16 * Entrance facilities, including entrance area, scales, and staging areas\n17 * Administration and control facilities\n18 * Waste delivery access road improvements to the IDF site from the WTP\n19 * Waste treatment and staging areas\n20 * Gates and fences\n21 * Utilities including fire protection, process water, electrical power, or instrumentation cables\n22 The IDF Phase I Critical Systems design has been prepared to interface with these non-critical systems\n23 that are necessary for operational readiness for the IDF. The following discussion details interface\n24 elements of the current design with these non-critical systems.\n25 There is the potential for the DOE to procure an independent contractor to provide operation and\n26 maintenance services for the IDF. These services could also include the detailed design and construction\n27 of a portion or all of the non-critical systems for the facility. If this should be the case, careful\n28 consideration will be given to these interface elements in the development of performance criteria that\n29 will be included as part of any contract package for these services.\n30 6.9.1 Entrance Facilities\n31 Entrance facilities will control the flow of waste into the IDF. These facilities will provide for waste\n32 delivery, inspection, check-in, and final authorization for disposal into the IDF. Typically, the location\n33 for the entrance facilities is adjacent to the in-bound access road, prior to reaching the disposal area.\n34 Other factors that can influence their location include access to existing utilities and other operational\n35 facilities such as waste treatment, soil stockpiles, or staging areas. Based on the current configuration\n36 planned for the IDF, there will be room for entrance facilities to the south of the Phase I disposal area,\n37 along the western access road. Typically, these facilities require connection to such utilities as fire\n38 protection, power, and process water. Utility interfaces are discussed later in this section.\n39 Design criteria and detailed design elements for the IDF entrance facilities have not been developed. The\n40 overall mission for the facility has expanded from handling just the ILAW packages to other wastes\n41 including Waste from the DBVS and LLW materials. This may require the entrance facilities to have\n42 expanded capabilities for waste load staging, inspection, verification, and scaling, prior to release for\n43 disposal into the IDF. This could impact the location selected for the entrance facilities, since complete\n44 development of the IDF to its full capacity will leave little room to the south of the southern perimeter\n45 berm for the facility (refer to Drawing H-2-830827).\nAppendix 4A.1.104\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 This could require the entrance facilities to be located along 1st Street, if a permanent initial location is\n2 desired. Otherwise, a more mobile entrance area could be developed and relocated along with phased\n3 development of the facility.\n4 6.9.2 Administration and Control Facilities\n5 Administration and control facilities will provide the control center for LCRS operations and monitoring,\n6 as well as monitoring for LDS and other emergency systems (fire, power interruption, and HVAC\n7 controls). The administration building will service facility operations, including waste tracking and\n8 record keeping systems as well as provide for staff needs including office facilities, lunch room, lockers,\n9 and storage. Other functions that may take place in this facility area include equipment maintenance, an\n10 equipment and staff decontamination area, and equipment storage.\n11 The proposed location of the administration building is shown on Drawing H-2-830827, to the north of\n12 the leachate storage and handling area (north of the IDF Phase I development area). This location\n13 provides quick access to the leachate control buildings and storage tanks, as well as good interface with\n14 existing utilities that will come from existing facilities to the east and west of the IDF. Power and\n15 control/communications cables will connect the administration building to the leachate control buildings\n16 (crest pad buildings, leachate pump buildings, and leachate storage tanks), as well as to other leachate\n17 control structures including the combine manholes and truck loading stations for Cell I and Cell 2.\n18 Additional utilities will service the administration building including fire protection, process water,\n19 potable water, communications, and power. Calculations for power supply to future facilities are\n20 provided in the Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF) Detailed Design: Site Utilities Design Report,\n21 (RPP-18515, Revision 1).\n22 Design criteria and detailed design need to be established for the administration building. The expanded\n23 mission of the IDF may influence existing criteria that have already been determined for this facility as\n24 provided in conceptual design documents for the original ILAW W-520 Project. Modular units may be\n25 considered for this facility.\n26 6.9.3 Waste Delivery Access Road\n27 The waste delivery from the WTP will access the IDF from 1st Street and enter the IDF along the western\n28 perimeter of the landfill. Waste delivery from other areas will access the facility from one of three gates\n29 (810, 812, or 815) to the 200 East Area, as discussed previously in Section 1 (refer to Figure 1-3).\n30 The Phase I access road is aligned horizontally with the proposed western berm of the complete IDF\n31 landfill. The vertical alignment of Phase I access road coordinates with the existing topography of the site\n32 between 1st Street and the Phase I landfill area, to minimize cut and fill requirements for this road\n33 construction. As such, the Phase I vertical alignment does not follow the vertical alignment of the future\n34 western perimeter berm of the landfill and will need to be modified in future expansion phases.\n35 All-weather pavement for the Phase I road as well as for 1st Street will need to be completed as part of\n36 non-critical design. It is anticipated that pavement will be asphalt concrete pavement.\n37 Access for waste haul vehicles will require upgrades to 1st Street to be designed as part of non-critical\n38 systems. Design criteria for this upgrade will be based on the anticipated haul vehicles and wheel loads\n39 for the various wastes to brought to the facility. From the Phase I Critical Systems design, the melter\n40 transport vehicle represents the most restrictive design condition for the road in terms of axle load and\n41 radius/grade limitations. However, there are also substantial wheel loads and larger volumes for ILAW\n42 package transport vehicles and other MLW and LLW wastes.\n43 It should be noted that there will be a significant grade differential between the southern end of the IDF\n44 perimeter berm and the existing 1st Street road grade. The western berm climbs at a uniform 1 percent\n45 grade to the south. As such, it will have an elevation of approximately 741 feet at the southern perimeter\n46 road. The existing grade of 1st Street at the western perimeter of the IDF is approximately 734 feet, and\n47 so 1st Street will need to be raised to make this transition and keep vertical road grades at a maximum of\n48 5 percent to accommodate the melter transport vehicles.\nAppendix 4A.1.105\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.9.4 Waste Treatment and Staging\n2 Currently, no waste treatment facilities have been planned for the IDF. Consideration of waste treatment\n3 may be necessary as part of the IDF's expanded mission to take mixed wastes and low-level wastes from\n4 both onsite and offsite sources, depending on the waste acceptance criteria that are established for the\n5 facility. Waste staging areas are associated with waste receipt and inspection activities, as mentioned\n6 previously. Staging and storage areas may also be needed for waste treatment as well. Design of non-\n7 critical facilities may need to consider development of these waste treatment and staging areas.\n8 During Phase I operation, there is adequate area south of the Phase I landfill area for treatment and\n9 staging. Some staging also can occur within the landfill itself that offers the advantage of occurring over\n10 lined areas with leachate collection systems in place. However, as wastes are placed and cell lifts become\n11 full, staging areas may be limited until new lifts are ready for waste placement. Regulatory requirements\n12 for waste staging and storage may also impact location and operational requirements for these areas.\n13 6.9.5 Gates and Fences\n14 The IDF is being developed within the 200 East area of the Hanford Site, that has controlled access with a\n15 perimeter fence and access control gates (refer to Figure 1-1). As such, it is currently not anticipated that\n16 additional fencing and gates will be required for access control to the facility. However, operationally it\n17 may be determined that a perimeter fence and additional gates may be warranted for isolation of the IDF\n18 from adjacent existing facilities and, if so, these need to be designed during implementation of non-\n19 critical design components. Site standards for fences and gates would be followed for this design.\n20 6.9.6 Site Utilities\n21 As mentioned previously, site utilities are included in non-critical systems design. Site utilities will\n22 interface with existing utilities that service facilities in the 200 East area. As such, substantial\n23 coordination will be required to locate these utilities, determine the best interface tie-in location, and\n24 bring these to the IDF site. Key utilities that are needed for the IDF include:\n25 * Power to buildings and operating systems, as well as to area lighting\n26 * Communication between administration building and operating systems, as well as from the IDF\n27 to other area networks\n28 * Fire protection water\n29 * Process (non-potable) water for operations and facility construction\n30 * Potable water\n31 Power requirements for leachate control and monitoring systems have been designed during this Phase I\n32 Critical Systems design. Access vaults to power and control systems are provided outside of both crest\n33 pad buildings (shown on Drawing H-2-830858). It is anticipated that the administration building will\n34 connect at these access vaults and will provide power for system operation and an Ethernet connection for\n35 controls. Transformer design for bringing power from the site to the administration building (and to\n36 leachate control facilities) will be performed during non-critical design, as will design of the Ethernet\n37 connection and administration control systems. Calculations for power supply to future facilities are\n38 provided in the Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF) Detailed Design: Site Utilities Design Report,\n39 (RPP-18515, Revision 1).\n40 Utility corridors need to be developed to bring these utilities to facility areas. It is recommended that\n41 these corridors be developed outside of landfill embankment areas and access roads, to allow for\n42 uninterrupted waste placement and facility operation, for future landfill phase development, for protection\n43 of liner system anchor trenches, and for protection of utilities from heavy wheel loads. In addition, the\n44 future final cover of the IDF is located over the perimeter embankments and catches existing ground at\n45 the outside toe of the embankment.\nAppendix 4A.1.106\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 7.0 OPERATING PROVISIONS\n2 7.1 Waste Placement\n3 7.1.1 Introduction\n4 To establish a baseline for design, construction, and operation of the IDF, a plan for filling the landfill\n5 cells was developed. This plan was developed mainly to ensure that landfill configuration and size as\n6 proposed for the IDF Phase I Critical Systems were adequate for safe placement of the ILAW, waste from\n7 the DBVS, and LLW, both remote handle and contact handle, that will be placed in the Phase I\n8 development. The proposed configuration and size of the IDF Phase I landfill are identified in Section 6\n9 of this report.\n10 The drawings that show the waste placement plan are included in Appendix D. 1. This plan was based on\n11 the concept of completely filling the first lift in both cells before beginning filling of the succeeding lift.\n12 The plan represents one approach to filling the cells within the proposed configuration. It is possible that\n13 other approaches, such as proceeding to a subsequent lift before completely filling the previous lift, also\n14 are workable, but development of the plan did not consider alternative methodologies to fill the cells.\n15 Development of the plan is also based on conformance with the operational procedures identified for the\n16 Base Alternative in Appendix K of the Conceptual Design Report for Immobilized Low-Activity Waste\n17 Disposal Facility, Project W-520 (RPP-7908, Revision 0), (CDR).\n18 This waste placement plan is intended to meet the applicable functional criteria identified in the System\n19 Specification for Immobilized Low-Activity Waste Disposal System (RPP-7303, Revision 3). \"As low as\n20 reasonably achievable\" principals (keeping radiation exposures to as low as reasonably achievable) are\n21 embodied in the waste placement plan that was developed. Because of the area available for waste\n22 disposal in each cell, the plan provides the capability to relocate filling operations to another area within\n23 each cell, if an event occurs that causes operations to halt temporarily, placing waste packages at the\n24 current working position. This will allow waste package placement to continue while the situation that\n25 caused the operations to cease is resolved.\n26 7.1.2 Phase I Configuration\n27 Under the proposed configuration for the IDF Phase I, there will be two cells, identical in size. One cell\n28 will be for disposal of ILAW and waste from the DBVS; the other cell will be for disposal of LLW. This\n29 waste placement plan proposes disposal of ILAW and DBVS waste Cell I and disposal of LLW in Cell 2.\n30 Provisions are included for disposal of both remote handle and contact handle waste in each cell.\n31 The configuration of the IDF Phase I development as it will exist at the completion of construction, prior\n32 to beginning filling operations, is shown in Appendix D, Drawing D.1-1. The initial operations layer,\n33 placed as part of Phase I construction, will cover the entire bottom liner and LCRS. The top of the\n34 operations layer will be level in the east-west direction and slope down at 1 percent from the south to the\n35 north. The operations layer will extend up the west, north, and east side slopes. Access to the facility will\n36 be from 1st Street along the western site boundary. An access ramp from the southwest corner of Phase I\n37 will lead down the south excavation slope from the west side to the bottom of Phase I and connect to the\n38 top of the operations layer near the south east corner of Cell 2.\n39 7.1.3 Waste Receipts\n40 As stated in Section 6.2, the IDF will receive LAW and Waste from the DBVS. The volumes stated in\n41 Section 6.2 are based on waste forecast information provided by FH. The waste volume forecasts are\n42 updated by Hanford Site contractors on a regular basis. Actual waste receipt rates at the IDF will likely\n43 vary from the estimated amounts. Depending on the receipt rate of LAW and DBVS waste versus the\n44 receipt rate of LLW, each lift of Cell 1 and Cell 2 may fill at different rates. The waste placement plan\n45 can accommodate differing rates of waste receipt because filling in subsequent lifts in each cell could be\n46 begun at different times as soon as the prior lift was complete. The cell that has the higher waste receipt\n47 rate will fill faster than the other cell and will determine the time when subsequent phases of development\n48 will need to begin so that additional disposal capacity is available when it is needed.\nAppendix 4A.1.107\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 7.1.4 General Waste Placement Procedures\n2 The discussion of waste placement in this plan is based on placement of the uniform height ILAW\n3 packages using remote handle. Some adjustments may need to be made for the variable height LLW\n4 containers and for contact handle waste, but in general, the waste placement concept will be the same for\n5 all types of waste.\n6 The configuration of IDF Phase I provides a height sufficient for four layers of ILAW packages, each\n7 covered with one meter of operations layer soil to provide shielding to operations personnel during waste\n8 package placement. LLW, which will be in variable height containers, can be accommodated within each\n9 of these four lifts. However, in some cases the LLW containers may exceed the lift height and, therefore,\n10 will not be completely covered by placement of the operations layer soil. In these cases, it may be\n11 necessary to mound cover soil around the individual projecting LLW containers to provide sufficient\n12 cover for shielding until they are completely covered by subsequent lifts.\n13 Each lift will contain multiple ILAW package arrays that span the width of each cell. The packages will\n14 be placed in close-packet hexagonal arrays, with placement tolerance averaging 10 centimeters (4 inches)\n15 center to center. As the packages are placed in the cell, the array will proceed along the width of the cell.\n16 The earth cover will proceed shortly behind the advancing package array, the distance behind the front\n17 package limited by the repose slope of the fill soil. The array width (number of columns of packages)\n18 will be limited according to the amount of radiation generated by the total number of packages that can be\n19 exposed. The CDR indicates that even at some distance from the advancing array, the dose rate becomes\n20 a concern when the array approaches more than ten or twelve packages in width.\n21 Off-loading of the ILAW packages and other waste containers will take place in the cell. A standard,\n22 manually operated, rubber-tired crane will off-load packages, move temporary shielding walls (concrete\n23 blocks), and place the interstitial fill between the packages using a hopper. In the CDR, the total weight\n24 of the shielding bell, package grapple, load cell, hooks, and other rigging is estimated at 20 metric tons\n25 (23 tons). The crane, as identified in the CDR, will be a Grove GMK 5100, a 108 metric ton (120 ton),\n26 rough terrain rubber-tired crane with a telescoping boom and a maximum reach of 15 meters (50 feet),\n27 with a load of 20 metric tons (23 tons). Pad loads could exceed 55 metric tons (60 tons) when placing an\n28 ILAW package at the maximum allowable reach. Dunnage required under each outrigger pad of the\n29 crane for lifts of this size has been determined to be 60 square feet, when operating directly on the base\n30 operations layer at its point of minimum thickness over the bottom liner system. Dunnage requirements\n31 for subsequent lifts would be less, but have not been determined. Refer to Section 5.5.5 and Appendix\n32 C.5.e of this Design Report for dunnage requirement calculations.\n33 7.1.5 Moveable Shielding Wall\n34 With off-loading operations in close proximity to the advancing package array, a moveable shielding wall\n35 will be set up between the crane and transporter operations and the placed packages (CDR, Drawing No.\n36 ES-W520-BASE). With the 15-meter (50-foot) maximum reach of the crane, the shield walls will have to\n37 be moved after every five rows of packages are placed. For a ten-package-wide-array, the wall will need\n38 to be relocated after fifty packages have been deposited, or about every eight days during Phase 1.\n39 To prevent the crane crew from receiving a high exposure rate, a new shield wall will be erected before\n40 the first shield wall is removed. A remote grappling system will be required to prevent rigging of the\n41 previously placed shield wall from causing high dose rates to operations personnel. Even then, the\n42 amount of time it will take to move the wall is estimated in the CDR to be 26 hours, four to five shifts, or\n43 a little less than two days when operating a full 24 hours per day.\n44 An alternative to the movable shielding wall is to use contact handle waste to construct the shielding wall\n45 and to leave it in place after placement of each ILAW array rather than moving it. This can reduce\n46 operations labor and expenses. It can also result in the use of less cover soil because the space between\n47 the package arrays will be partly filled with contact handle waste, rather than with all soil.\nAppendix 4A.1.108\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI This alternative needs to be considered further when developing the operations plan for operating the\n2 disposal facility.\n3 7.1.6 Typical Array Size\n4 The moveable shielding wall set up between the crane and transporter operations and the placed package\n5 configuration will limit the proximity of package placement to between 15 meters (50 feet) and 7.5 meters\n6 (25 feet) of the crane. The 7.5 meters (25 feet) usable range of the crane reach, working over the\n7 shielding wall, and the ten or twelve maximum package width (because of dose rate limitation)\n8 determines the nominal array size that can be placed by the crane from a single set point. The 1.22 meters\n9 (4 feet) diameter ILAW packages will be staggered in the array to minimize the space between the\n10 packages. A column that is five packages deep can fit within the 7.5 meters (25 feet) available range of\n11 the crane reach while working over the shield wall. A width of ten packages is within the reach of the\n12 crane and is less than the allowable limits for the dose rate. Allowing for a 10 centimeters (4 inches)\n13 average tolerance in package placement, the five-row by ten-package-wide array is roughly 6 meters\n14 (20 feet) deep by 13.3 meters (44 feet) wide. A typical array is shown in Appendix D, Drawing D.1-1.\n15 7.1.7 Cover Soil\n16 Prior to the shield wall being relocated, the crane will place interstitial soil material between the packages,\n17 using a hopper. The filling operation is expected to take about one shift, according to the CDR, using up\n18 the balance of the two days needed to move the shield wall. To make up the time spent moving the shield\n19 wall and placing the interstitial fill soil, the average rate of package placement will have to be increased to\n20 seven packages per day for five days, according to the CDR.\n21 While the shield wall is being relocated, a soil cover will be placed over the packages from on top of the\n22 lift of previously placed packages. Dump trucks will drive over the previously covered portion of the\n23 array and back up to near the edge of the packages that are still exposed and dump a load of fill soil for\n24 spreading by a bulldozer. The soil will be spread over the top of the top and exposed side of the array.\n25 The side slope from soil, cascading off the top, will be formed in no less than 1.5 H: 1V for reasons of\n26 safety, and will use approximately a 5-meter (16-foot) wide space between lines of arrays.\n27 Approximately 300 cubic meters (400 cubic yards) of soil will be required to cover the top and side of the\n28 five-row-deep by ten-package-wide array. The cover soil will be held back from the advancing end of the\n29 array so that the toe of the cover soil does not extend beyond the outer package in the array. This will\n30 allow the next array to be placed in close proximity to the previous array. After the bulldozer spreads the\n31 soil to a somewhat uniform 1-meter-plus thickness over the packages, a sheepsfoot-style compactor will\n32 make several passes to consolidate the fill soil. The cover soil effort will take approximately 12 hours or\n33 two shifts, as estimated in the CDR, and will take place at the same time that the portable shield wall is\n34 being relocated.\n35 7.1.8 Failed Melter Disposal Area\n36 (Note: Disposal of failed melters is not permitted at this time by this permit.)\n37\n38 Failed melters can be disposed of as MLLW in Cell 1. A failed melter disposal area is provided on the\n39 bottom of Cell I at the southern toe of the waste lifts. Disposing of the failed melters in this area would\n40 eliminate placing them within the lifts along with the ILAW packages and other MLLW.\n41 7.1.9 Access Ramps\n42 Two 30-foot wide access ramps will be built into the south slope of the waste lifts to accommodate the\n43 movement of transport vehicles and equipment from one lift to the next. A third access ramp will be built\n44 through the north shine berm onto the top of the third lift to accommodate transport vehicles and\n45 equipment during the construction of Phase II, when the access ramp leading down the south excavation\n46 slope to the bottom of Phase I will be removed.\n47\nAppendix 4A.1.109\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The access ramp into Cell I and the access ramp from the north side would have a maximum slope of 5\n2 percent to accommodate failed melter transporters, if it becomes necessary to dispose of the melters in the\n3 waste lifts rather than in the designated area at the bottom of Cell 1. The access ramp into Cell 2 would\n4 have a maximum slope of 8 percent that would accommodate the ILAW, DBVS containers, and LLW\n5 waste transporters. The access ramps at the bottom of Phase I would have minimum outside turning radii\n6 of 75 feet, to accommodate the failed melter transporters. The dimensions of the access ramps provide\n7 flexibility to accommodate the various waste haul vehicles that could use the ramps.\n8 7.1.10 Filling Lift 1\n9 Filling of remote handle ILAW and DBVS waste in Cell I will begin in the northwest corner and proceed\n10 to the southeast. Filling of remote handle LLW in Cell 2 will begin in the northeast corner and proceed to\n11 the southwest. Filling of contact handle LLW will begin in the northwest corner of cell 2 and proceed\n12 southeast (see Appendix D, Drawing D.1-2). This filling approach places the remote handle wastes\n13 farthest apart from each other, with contact handle wastes between them, and eliminates the need for\n14 additional shielding provisions that would be necessary if the two remote handles wastes were located\n15 adjacent to each other. This filling approach will be continued in the three subsequent lifts.\n16 Nearly all of Lift I can be filled with the crane and transporters, operating from the top of the first\n17 operations layer. A 5-meter (17-foot) wide separation will be maintained between Cell 1 and Cell 2 to\n18 separate the ILAW and DBVS waste from the LLW. This separation area will be filled with soil. Using a\n19 low permeability soil in this area will maximize separation of leachate between the two cells. Two access\n20 lanes (ramps) will be maintained into the cells for transporter access. The transporters can turn around\n21 within the cells until the packages are within 7.5 meters (25 feet) of the area needed for the unloading\n22 operations.\n23 Before the space for filling Lift I from the top of the first operations layer is consumed, the two access\n24 ramps will be extended with soil and contact handle waste to the top of Lift 1. The crane and transporters\n25 will go to the top of Lift I and will finish placing the remainder of the Lift I waste packages from the top\n26 (see Appendix D, Drawing D.1-3). At this point, it will also be possible to begin using the failed melter\n27 disposal area (also shown on Drawing D. 1-3).\n28 7.1.11 Filling Lift 2\n29 Lift 2 will be filled similarly to Lift I (see Appendix D, Drawing D.1-4). This filling approach will\n30 continue the pattern that was established in Lift 1. Nearly the entire lift can be filled with the crane and\n31 transporters operating on the top of Lift 1. The 5-meter (17-foot) wide soil-filled separation will be\n32 maintained between Cell I and Cell 2 to separate the ILAW and DBVS waste from the LLW. The two\n33 access ramps will be maintained into both cells for transporter access. The transporters can turn around\n34 within the cells until the packages are within 7.5 meters (25 feet) of the area needed for the unloading\n35 operations. Before the space for filling Lift 2 from the top of Lift 1 is consumed, the two access ramps\n36 will be extended with soil and contact handle waste to the top of Lift 2. The crane and transporters will\n37 go to the top of Lift 2 and will finish placing the remainder of the Lift 2 waste packages from the top (see\n38 Appendix D, Drawing D.1-5).\n39 7.1.12 Filling Lift 3\n40 Lift 3 will be filled similarly to Lift 2 (see Appendix D, Drawing D.1-6). Nearly the entire lift can be\n41 filled with the crane and transporters operating on the top of Lift 2. The 5-meter (17-foot) wide soil-filled\n42 separation will be maintained between Cell I and Cell 2 to separate the ILAW and DBVS waste from the\n43 LLW. Two access ramps will be extended into the cells for transporter access. The transporters can turn\n44 around within the cells until the packages are within 7.5 meters (25 feet) of the area needed for the\n45 unloading operations. Before the space for filling Lift 3 from the top of Lift 2 is consumed, the two\n46 access ramps will be extended with soil and contact handle waste to the top of Lift 3. The crane and\n47 transporters will go to the top of Lift 3 and will finish placing the remainder of the Lift 3 waste packages\n48 from the top (see Appendix D, Drawing D. 1-7).\nAppendix 4A.1.110\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 7.1.13 Filling Lift 4\n2 Lift 4 will be filled similarly to the previous three lifts, but with a few differences (see Appendix D,\n3 Drawing D.1-8). Most of the lift can be filled with the crane and transporters operating on the top of Lift\n4 3, using the access ramps from the south. However, only the easterly access ramp from the south is\n5 planned to be extended to the top of Lift 4 for transporter access. The westerly access ramp from the\n6 south will not be extended because, as shown on Appendix D, Drawing D. 1-9, it would reach the top of\n7 Lift 4 too close to the west side slope to accommodate an adequate turning radius for the transport\n8 vehicles. The access ramp will be blocked by waste placement in Cell 1. However, with some minor\n9 adjustment in its location and/or increase in its slope, it will be possible to extend the access ramp into\n10 Cell 1, if desired. Also, at some point during the filling Lift 4, construction for Phase II to the south will\n11 begin, and the access road from the south will be removed from service.\n12 Prior to the westerly access ramp becoming blocked with waste and the access road from the south\n13 removed for construction of Phase II, a third access ramp will be constructed from the north down onto\n14 the top of Lift 3 to provide additional access. This access ramp will maintain separation between Cell 1\n15 and Cell 2, to separate the ILAW and DBVS waste from the LLW. The transporters can turn around\n16 within the cells until the packages are within 7.5 meters (25 feet) of the area needed for the unloading\n17 operations.\n18 Before the space for filling Lift 4 from the top of Lift 3 is consumed, the easterly access ramp will be\n19 extended with soil and contact handle waste to the top of Lift 4, and the access ramp from the north will\n20 be graded out onto the top of Lift 4. The crane and transporters will go to the top of Lift 4 and will finish\n21 placing the remainder of the Lift 4 waste packages from the top (see Appendix D, Drawing D.1-9).\n22 Completion of Lift 4 will end the filling operations in Phase I. The configuration at the end of Lift 4,\n23 prior to placement of the final cover system, is shown on Appendix D, Drawing D.1-10.\n24 7.1.14 Transitioning Between Lifts\n25 As the available operating space in a lift gets smaller, operations efficiency will decrease to a point where\n26 it will become necessary to move part of the operations to the next lift before the active lift is completed.\n27 This will allow completion of each lift, using selected waste that will be easier to handle in the remaining\n28 space available on the lift. An example of this would be to use only contact handle waste to complete the\n29 filling of each lift while operating on the top of the lift that is being completed (see Appendix D,\n30 Drawings D.1-3, -5, -7, and -9) and sending all remote handle waste into the next lift.\n31 7.1.15 Planning for Phase II and Operations During Phase II Construction\n32 Phase II will need to be constructed and ready for operations sufficiently ahead of completion of filling\n33 operations in Lift 4 of Phase I to allow a smooth transition without operational constraints. Planning,\n34 design, and construction of Phase II may require several years. Phase II should be planned to be ready for\n35 operation at least six months, and preferably one year or more, before Lift 4 in Phase I is anticipated to be\n36 completed. This will provide a reasonable margin for changes in the incoming waste quantities and other\n37 variables while still having Phase II ready for operation, prior to reaching capacity in Phase I.\n38 While Phase II is under construction, the access road on the west will be out of service for a period of\n39 time and the access ramp on the south into Phase I will be removed. During this time, it will be necessary\n40 for all waste transport vehicles to enter Phase I, using the access ramp on the north side. As currently\n41 designed, some access roads on the west and north sides of Phase I that normally would be used to reach\n42 the north access ramp might not accommodate all of the transport vehicles. In particular, the berm access\n43 road on the west side of Phase I and the access roads around the leachate storage tanks on the north do not\n44 have widths and turning radii as large as required by the waste transport vehicles. These roads would\n45 have to be widened and their turning radii increased to meet the requirements for transport vehicles,\n46 particularly the failed melter transporters.\nAppendix 4A. 1.111\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 7.2 Operational Interfaces\n2 Operations and maintenance procedures will be prepared in the future as a separate project. These\n3 procedures will address operations, monitoring, and maintenance activities for the IDF.\n4 This section of the Design Report presents important operational interfaces that have been identified by\n5 the design team. These interfaces should be considered during preparation of the operation and\n6 maintenance procedures. The interfaces are grouped by three categories-landfill excavation, liner system,\n7 and leachate handling system.\n8 7.2.1 IDF Landfill Excavation and Related Subsystems\n9 Operational interfaces for the landfill excavation and related subsystems include the following:\n10 * Due to the containerized nature of the waste, the landfill is designed to be filled in a bottom-up\n11 fashion in four or more layers. The number of layers will depend on waste package size. Some\n12 waste packages may be larger in dimension than the ILAW packages. Operational procedures\n13 should be developed to accommodate various package sizes and their placement.\n14 * Clean fill placement between waste packages must be done to minimize the potential for future\n15 consolidation and potential subsidence.\n16 * Operations layer on side slopes of IDF will be monitored for material loss due to wind and water\n17 erosion. Lost material should be replaced. Annual application of spray-on type soil stabilization\n18 material to exposed areas of Phase I IDF should be considered.\n19 * Shine berms should be monitored for erosion and height and should be repaired as necessary.\n20 Erosion control matting on the berm will be maintained and repaired or replaced if damage\n21 occurs.\n22 * Stormwater control facilities should be maintained annually. Maintenance would include debris\n23 removal from the ditches and application of weed control. Periodically, if capacity of infiltration\n24 areas is diminished due to collection of fines, fines removal will be necessary. To maintain\n25 infiltration capacity, no other vehicle access should be allowed into these areas.\n26 * Stormwater accumulation in the in-cell excavation infiltration area should be visually monitored.\n27 Pumping of the area may be necessary if accumulation becomes significant (near liner levels) in\n28 wet weather seasons. Periodically, if capacity of infiltration areas is diminished due to collection\n29 of fines, fines removal will be necessary. To maintain infiltration capacity, no other vehicle\n30 access should be allowed into these areas.\n31 * Due to the heavy wheel loads on the access roads and ramps, gravel surfacing will be maintained\n32 with regular maintenance. Maintenance activities may include addition of more top course\n33 material, and grading and compaction of this material.\n34 * Active faces of stockpiles will require periodic application of spray-on soil stabilization material.\n35 7.2.2 IDF Liner System\n36 Operational interfaces for the lining system include the following:\n37 * Only equipment with ground pressures less than 4,400 lb/ft should be used for construction and\n38 maintenance on the side slopes, when operating directly on the operations layer. Bulldozers or\n39 other equipment may operate on the side slopes until a rain event in excess of 0.15 inches per\n40 hour occurs. In that event, equipment should be kept off the side slope (directly on the operations\n41 layer) and should not be permitted to operate on slopes until two hours after the end of the rainfall\n42 event. The precipitation event applies to both the lined slopes and the unlined slopes at the\n43 southern end of the Phase I cell.\n44 * For equipment on ramps, equipment should be kept a minimum of 2 feet away from the edge of\n45 ramps, to avoid localized sloughing of the ramp edges.\nAppendix 4A.1.112\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * When operating equipment or placing waste on the operations layer above the lining system, care\n2 should be taken to avoid damaging the liner. Special care will be necessary for equipment\n3 operation on the side slopes.\n4 * Any loads placed on the surface of the first operations layer must be examined to verify that they\n5 do not create loads on the lining system in excess of the allowable GCL bearing capacity. As an\n6 example, different types of waste other than canisters should be examined as the waste plan is\n7 more fully developed. Care should also be taken to avoid impact loading, such as dropping a\n8 canister.\n9 * For static loading (such as for a barrier wall), refer to the discussion in Section 5.2 and\n10 Appendix C.2.\n11 * For operational/equipment loading, refer to the discussion in Section 5.5.5 and Appendix C.5.e to\n12 determine applicable load limits and crane dunnage requirements.\n13 The waste plan, as it is developed, should be followed for placement and density requirements. Any\n14 revisions to the proposed waste filling plan (discussed in Section 7.1) should be reviewed by the design\n15 engineer, to evaluate impacts on the waste/fill global stability analyses (Section 5.1.3 and\n16 Appendix C. 1.c).\n17 As part of the waste/fill global stability analyses, the waste mass was considered internally stable for this\n18 design effort. Internal waste mass stability is a function of the waste filling approach. There are\n19 numerous options available to stabilize the waste through operational methodologies, such as providing a\n20 greater soil buttress on the open 3:1 south slope. During subsequent design phases, the internal stability\n21 of the waste should be evaluated in conjunction with the waste filling plan.\n22 7.2.3 IDF Leachate Handling System\n23 Operational interfaces for the leachate handling system include the following:\n24 * Coordinate with Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (LERF) for leachate hauling and removal of\n25 leachate from tanks to satisfy the 90-day accumulation period (Treatment capacities at LERF and\n26 leachate flows for critical periods should also be coordinated. See Section 5.9.2.4 for additional\n27 leachate hauling constraints.)\n28 * Use leak detection history for leachate storage tanks, during the operation of IDF, to manage and\n29 plan for replacement of tank liner system and temporary storage required during its replacement.\n30 * Periodic preventative inspection and maintenance for all rotating equipment should be scheduled.\n31 * For leachate tanks floating covers, rain or snow will need to be pumped off with the\n32 manufacturer-included sump pump (mounted on side of tank). Water should not be allowed to\n33 accumulate except at the perimeter of the floating cover. Excessive water may prevent vent\n34 operation and cause mixing between precipitation water and leachate on top of the cover.\n35 * An adequate store of critical spare electrical and mechanical parts should be maintained.\n36 * All valves should be exercised at least annually.\n37 * A small \"contractor-type\" trash pump with hose should be kept on hand that can be used to pump\n38 from the leak detection chamber within the combined sump to its inner sump.\n39 * Periodically, test operation of the combined sump pump should be done.\n40 * Annual testing of all leachate pumps for proper operation should be scheduled.\n41 * Regular verification of level transducer calibration in cells should be done.\n42 * Prior to winter months, proper operation of all heat tracing system should be checked.\n43 * Periodic testing of all control relays, switches and contacts should be scheduled.\n44 * Additional operational interface items will be developed, based on completion of design of the\n45 control system for the leachate handling system. This will be part of the IDF administration\n46 building design.\nAppendix 4A.1.113\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n* Maintenance should be provided in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations.\n2 7.3 Leakage Response Action Plan\n3 WAC 173-303-665(9) regulations require the owner of the operator of a landfill unit to have an approved\n4 Response Action Plan (RAP) before receipt of waste. The RAP is a site-specific plan that establishes\n5 actions to be taken if leakage through the upper (primary) lining system of a landfill exceeds a certain\n6 rate. The intent of the RAP is to assure that any leachate that leaks through the primary lining system will\n7 not migrate out of the landfill into the environment.\n8 A key element of the RAP is the ALR, a threshold value which triggers the responses described in the\n9 RAP, but below which no special actions are required. Because landfill liner systems have not yet been\n10 perfected, a small amount of leakage through the primary liner generally occurs, despite the use of best\n11 available materials, construction techniques, and QA procedures. (This leakage is collected by the LDS\n12 system and removed from the landfill.) Hence, the ALR is set at some level higher than normally\n13 expected leakage rates to serve as an indicator that the primary lining system is not functioning as\n14 expected. Exceeding the ALR may reflect serious failure of the primary lining system and indicates the\n15 need for investigation and possibly corrective action while the problem is still manageable.\n16 This RAP has been prepared in accordance with requirements of WAC 173-303-665(9). The\n17 requirements for determining the ALR are contained in WAC 173-303-665(8) and EPA guidance\n18 document, Action Leakage Rates for Leak Detection Systems (EPA 1992a).\n19 The following sections establish the ALR and discuss response actions to be taken if the ALR is\n20 exceeded.\n21 7.3.1 Action Leakage Rate\n22 Section 5.11 provides a detailed discussion of the analysis to determine the ALR into the LDS for the\n23 IDF. Based on this analyses, the ALR for each IDF cell is 206 gallons per acre per day, or approximately\n24 1,800 gallons per day per cell (each cell area is approximately 8.5 acres). This value includes a factor of\n25 safety of 2 in accordance with EPA guidelines (EPA 1992b). It is also much lower than the LDS pump\n26 capacity. Details of the calculation are presented in Appendix C. 10.\n27 In accordance with WAC 173-303-665(8)(b), the flow rate used to determine if the ALR has been\n28 exceeded will be calculated as the average daily flow rate into the sump, expressed as gallons per acre per\n29 day (unless Ecology approves a different calculation). This calculation will be performed on a weekly\n30 basis during the active (operational) life of the landfill, and monthly after the landfill has been closed.\n31 Post-closure frequency may be reduced if only minimal amounts of leachate accumulate in the LDS\n32 sump. As outlined in WAC 173-303-665(4)(c)(ii), during post-closure monitoring, if the liquid level in\n33 the LDS sump stays below the pump operating level for two consecutive months, monitoring of the\n34 amount of liquid in the LDS sumps can be reduced to at least quarterly. If the liquid level in the LDS\n35 sump stays below the pump operating level for two consecutive quarters, monitoring of the amount of\n36 liquid in the LDS sumps can be reduced to at least semiannually. Pump operating level is defined as a\n37 liquid level approved by Ecology, based on pump activation level, sump dimensions, and level that\n38 minimizes head in the sump.\n39 7.3.2 Response Actions\n40 WAC 173-303-665(9) lists several required actions if the ALR is exceeded. In the event that the ALR is\n41 exceeded, DOE will:\n42 * Notify Ecology in writing of the exceedance within 7 days of the determination.\n43 * Submit a preliminary written assessment to Ecology within 14 days of the determination, as to the\n44 amount of liquids, likely sources of liquids, possible location, size, cause of any leaks, and short-\n45 term actions taken and planned.\n46 * Determine, to the extent practicable, the location, size , and cause of any leak.\nAppendix 4A.1. 114\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Determine whether waste receipt should cease or be curtailed, whether any waste should be\n2 removed from the unit for inspection, repairs, or controls, and whether or not the unit should be\n3 closed.\n4 * Determine any other short-term and longer-term actions to be taken to mitigate or stop any leaks.\n5 Within 30 days after the notification that the ALR has been exceeded, submit to Ecology the results of the\n6 analyses specified in bullets 3, 4, and 5 of this section, the results of actions taken, and actions planned.\n7 Monthly thereafter, as long as the flow rate in the LDS exceeds the ALR, the owner or operator must\n8 submit to the regional administrator a report summarizing the results of any remedial actions taken and\n9 actions planned.\n10 If the ALR is exceeded, the DOE will submit the required notifications to Ecology, as stated above. The\n11 EPA will also receive copies of this confirmation.\n12 The leachate will be analyzed for chemical compounds and radionuclides. If the analytical results\n13 indicate that these constituents are present, and if the constituents can be traced to a particular type of\n14 waste stored in a known area of the landfill, then it may be possible to estimate the location of the leak.\n15 However, because the waste will meet land disposal restrictions, it will contain no free liquids and will be\n16 stabilized or solidified. In addition, the canister(s) or other type of waste package(s) may not undergo\n17 enough deterioration during the active life of the landfill to permit escape of its contents. For these\n18 reasons, it is possible that the leachate may be clean or the composition too general to indicate a specific\n19 source location.\n20 If the source location cannot be identified, large-scale removal of the waste and operations layer to find\n21 and repair the leaking area of the liner would be one option for remediation. However, this procedure\n22 risks damaging the liner. In addition, waste would have to be handled, stored, and replaced in the landfill.\n23 Backfill would need to be removed from around the waste packages to accomplish this. If the waste\n24 packages are damaged during this process, the risk of accidental release may be high. For these reasons,\n25 large scale removal of waste and liner system materials is not considered a desirable option and will not\n26 be implemented except as a last resort.\n27 The preferred options for remediation include covers and changes in landfill operating procedures. The\n28 preferred alternative will depend on factors such as the amount of waste already in the landfill, the rate of\n29 waste receipt, the chemistry of the leachate, the availability of other RCRA-compliant disposal facilities,\n30 and similar considerations. Hence, at this time no single approach can be selected. If the ALR is\n31 exceeded, potential options will be evaluated prior to selecting a remediation process. If necessary, an\n32 interim solution will be implemented while the evaluation and permanent remediation is performed.\n33 Examples of potential approaches include the following:\n34 * The surface of the intermediate soil cover over the waste could be graded to direct runoff into a\n35 shallow pond. The surface would then be covered with a discardable, temporary geomembrane\n36 (e.g., 30-mil PVC or reinforced polypropylene). Precipitation water would be pumped or\n37 evaporated from the pond and would not infiltrate the waste already in the landfill. Waste\n38 packages would be placed only during periods of dry weather and stored temporarily at other\n39 times. This type of approach would also be used, if necessary, to reduce leakage during the time\n40 immediately after the ALR was exceeded, while other remediation options were being evaluated.\n41 * If the landfill was nearly full, partial construction of the final closure cover might be an option.\n42 This would reduce infiltration into the landfill and possibly the leakage rate, if the cover were\n43 constructed over the failed area.\n44 * A layer of low-permeability soil could be placed over the existing waste, perhaps in conjunction\n45 with a geomembrane, to create a second \"primary\" liner higher in the landfill. This new liner\n46 would intercept precipitation and allow its removal.\nAppendix 4A.1.115\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n* A rigid-frame or air-supported structure could be constructed over the landfill to ensure that no\n2 infiltration occurred. Although costly, this approach might be less expensive than constructing a\n3 new landfill.\n4 In general, the selected remediation efforts would be those that are easiest to implement, with more\n5 difficult or expensive options to be applied only if earlier approaches were not satisfactory.\n6 8.0 REFERENCES\n7 40 CFR 264.

This\n16 CQA Plan is intended to satisfy the regulatory requirements and guidance established in 40 CFR 264.19,\n17 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) technical guidance document, Quality Assurance and\n18 Quality Control for Waste Containment Facilities (EPA 1993), and Washington Administrative Code\n19 (WAC) 173-303-335.\n20 This CQA Plan will be implemented by a CQA Officer (herein referred to as the CQA certifying\n21 engineer), a person familiar with EPA's technical guidance document, Quality Assurance and Quality\n22 Control for Waste Containment Facilities and this CQA Plan. The CQA certifying engineer will be\n23 supported by the number of CQA representatives necessary to implement the requirements in this CQA\n24 Plan and to document the work.\n25 1.1.2 Scope\n26 This CQA Plan establishes general administrative and documentation procedures that will be applicable\n27 for selected activities of construction. With respect to responsibilities, personnel qualifications, and\n28 specific inspection and testing activities, this CQA Plan addresses only those activities associated with the\n29 soils, geosynthetics, and related liner and leachate collection system piping components for the IDF.\n30 The CQA requirements are divided into the following sections to provide quick access to CQA\n31 requirements for individual liner components:\n* Soils CQA * Composite Drainage Net CQA\n* Geosynthetic Clay Liner CQA * Polyethylene Pipe and Fittings CQA\n* Geomembrane CQA * CQA Documentation and Certification\n* Geotextile CQA * CQA Documentation and Certification\n32 1.2 Project Organization\n33 This section describes the anticipated project organization for the IDF construction activities. The\n34 following subsections address the organizations involved in the construction, their respective roles in\n35 construction activities, and the methods of interactions between organizations.\n36 1.2.1 Responsibility and Authority\n37 The organization chart for the IDF construction is shown in Figure 1-1.

The CQA monitor will monitor the fill placement and compaction to verify and\n12 document the following:\n13 * The soil being placed meets the technical specifications requirements for earth fill and structural\n14 fill as determined by the test methods and frequencies specified within this CQA Plan and the\n15 source quality control submittals.\n16 * The placement surface has been prepared as specified in the technical specifications.\n17 * The compacted lift thickness is in accordance with the requirements of the technical\n18 specifications.\n19 * The dry unit weight of the earth fill and structural fill meets specifications as determined by the\n20 test methods and frequencies described in Table 2-1 for earth fill and Table 2-2 for structural fill.\n21 * Material placed in permanent stockpiles meets the appropriate specifications for earth fill or\n22 structural fill.\n23 2.1.2 Construction Quality Assurance Evaluation\n24 The frequency of soils testing for CQA purposes will conform to the minimum frequencies presented in\n25 Table 2-1 for earth fill and Table 2-2 for structural fill. Material properties will be determined from\n26 samples collected either immediately after placement or from stockpiles.\nAppendix 4B.22\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Nuclear density meter test methods will be used for the field-testing of the in situ dry unit weight of the\n2 in-place, compacted fill. Any settlement or other defects in the fill will be backfilled and compacted in\n3 accordance with the technical specifications.\n4 Standard count calibrations will be conducted to monitor the aging of the nuclear density gauge sources in\n5 accordance with ASTM standards. Sand cone or drive sleeve tests will be conducted periodically to\n6 verify densities using the nuclear density gauge. Oven moisture content tests will be conducted and\n7 compared to field moisture content results to determine a field correction factor for moisture. Sand cone\n8 or drive sleeve tests and in situ moisture content tests will be performed at the frequencies specified in\n9 Tables 2-1 and 2-2.\n10 If an in-place density test result fails to meet specifications, a confirmatory test will be performed\n11 immediately adjacent to the failed test. If the confirmatory test meets or exceeds specifications, a second\n12 confirmatory test will be performed at a second location immediately next to the failed test. If the second\n13 confirmatory test also meets or exceeds specifications, the area will be declared as meeting project\n14 specifications and the confirmatory tests will be reported. In the event that either confirmatory test fails\n15 to meet specifications, a CQA representative will determine the extent and nature of the defect by\n16 observations and/or additional testing, as necessary, to identify the limits of the area that does not meet\n17 project specifications.\n18 If a defective area is discovered in the fill, a CQA representative will determine the extent and nature of\n19 the defect. If the defect is indicated by an unsatisfactory test result, the CQA representative will\n20 determine the extent of the defective area by additional tests, observations, a review of records, or other\n21 means that the CQA representative deems appropriate. If the defect is related to adverse site conditions,\n22 such as excessively wet soils or surface desiccation, the CQA representative will define the limits and\n23 nature of the defect by testing or observation. After the extent and nature of a defect is determined and\n24 remedied by the construction general contractor, the CQA representative will verify that the deficiency\n25 has been corrected by re-testing repaired areas before any additional work is performed by the\n26 construction general contractor in the area of the deficiency. All confirmatory tests, failing tests, and re-\n27 tests will be recorded in the CQA representative's field book or compaction testing form. The\n28 approximate location and elevation of each test will be recorded.\n29 The CQA representative will document fill placement and compaction as determined by the test methods\n30 and frequency prescribed by this CQA Plan and will report any non-conformance in accordance with the\n31 non-conformance reporting procedures outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n32 2.2 Prepared Subgrade\n33 The CQA representative will verify and document that the prepared subgrade is constructed to the\n34 elevations and grades shown in the construction drawings, with subgrade meeting the requirements of the\n35 technical specifications as determined by the test methods and frequencies specified within this CQA\n36 Plan.\n37 Upon completion of the excavation of the landfill, the CQA monitor will perform the following tasks:\n38 * Inspect the subgrade on the side slopes and base of the landfill and note areas of weak or\n39 excessively weathered subgrade materials.\n40 * Observe completion of excavation and subgrade compaction prior to foundation, fill, or liner\n41 placement.\n42 * Observe the proof rolling of the base of the landfill and note areas that exhibit excessive rutting,\n43 heaving, or softening.\n44 * Observe that the surface of the subgrade is free of debris, wet and soft areas, standing water,\n45 vegetation, mud, ice, or frozen material.\n46 * Observe any excavation and backfilling operations associated with unsuitable material found in\n47 the prepared subgrade.\nAppendix 4B.23\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Verify that a survey has been conducted to further verify that the subgrade grades and elevations\n2 conform to the construction drawings.\n3 * Verify that the prepared subgrade material meets the requirements of the technical specifications\n4 as determined by the CQA testing methods and frequency in Table 2-3.\n5 * Verify that sampling points in the prepared subgrade are plugged or backfilled so that the\n6 prepared subgrade meets the technical specifications.\n7 * Document the location and volume of any unsuitable material removed from the prepared\n8 subgrade and report any non-conformance with the technical specifications in accordance with\n9 the non-conformance reporting procedures in Section 8.1.4\n10 2.2.1 Layer Completion Certification\n11 The construction general contractor will be required to notify the CQA representative when an area of\n12 prepared subgrade is complete prior to constructing the overlying layer. The construction general\n13 contractor can proceed with the overlying layer upon acceptance of the area of prepared subgrade by the\n14 CQA representative. The CQA certifying engineer will provide a certificate of layer completion to the\n15 construction general contractor and the IDF project engineer, certifying that the area is complete.\n16 2.3 Soil Bentonite Admix Liner and Test Pads\n17 The soil bentonite admix liner (SBL) is composed of a mixture of base soil and bentonite material. Two\n18 SBL test pads will include both a horizontal and a sloped test pad. The horizontal test pad will be\n19 constructed by using the same compaction methods as that used for the production SBL, to ensure the\n20 SBL is constructed to meet the minimum hydraulic conductivity requirements. The sloped test pad will\n21 be constructed on a sloping surface to verify that compaction methods (determined during the horizontal\n22 test pad) will be adequate for the side slopes of the landfill. If necessary, the technical specifications\n23 and/or CQA Plan may be modified, based on the results of the test pads.\n24 2.3.1 Test Pads\n25 Test pads will be constructed by the construction general contractor to determine acceptable placement\n26 and compaction methods to produce a low permeable SBL on a horizontal surface and on a 3H:IV side\n27 slope that satisfies the performance requirements of the technical specifications.\n28 In addition, the mixing of the base soil and bentonite admixture using the pugmill will be tested to ensure\n29 adequate control of the ratio of admixture components as well as the homogeneity of the completed SBL\n30 mixture.\n31 2.3.1.1 Construction Quality Assurance Evaluation\n32 During test pad construction, the CQA representative will continuously observe and document the\n33 construction of the test pad. These guidelines will be followed to ensure that the test pad accurately\n34 represents the performance of the full-scale facility:\n35 * Construction of the test pad will use the same soil material, design specifications, equipment, and\n36 procedures as proposed for the full-scale facility.\n37 * The test pad length, width, and depth will be as required by the technical specifications and for\n38 the in-situ hydraulic conductivity test spacing.\n39 * The number of lifts used to construct the test pad will be as required by the technical\n40 specifications.\n41 The test pad will be constructed to allow determination of the relationship among density, moisture\n42 content, and method of compaction. Field variables can affect this relationship and must be carefully\n43 measured and controlled, both in the test pad and during construction of the full-scale liner. At a\n44 minimum, the following will be observed and documented:\nAppendix 4B.24\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Track weight of base soil and bentonite during mixing operations.\n2 * Mixing operation homogeneity.\n3 * Test pad configuration and dimensions.\n4 * Compaction equipment type, configuration, and weight.\n5 * Number of passes and speed of the compaction equipment.\n6 * Uncompacted and compacted lift thickness.\n7 * Weather conditions, including ambient temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and\n8 precipitation.\n9 The CQA representative will provide the necessary surveying and/or reference grid points, for adequately\n10 and expeditiously, determining the elevation and dimensions of the test pad, including each lift.\n11 The CQA representative will be responsible for all testing, surveying, and documentation necessary to\n12 verify that the test pad performs in accordance with the technical specifications, and that the methods,\n13 equipment, and materials used can achieve the same results or better during full-scale construction.\n14 Testing methods and frequencies will be as indicated in Table 2-4. Additional tests may be conducted at\n15 the direction of the CQA certifying engineer. All tests will be conducted in accordance with the methods\n16 and procedures specified in Table 2-4. Tests are separately identified in Table 2-4 which are intended to\n17 provide the following:\n18 * Information Only, for use in evaluating overall methods, materials, or equipment.\n19 * Pass/Fail, which have criteria established in the technical specifications which must be met.\n20 * Calibration and Check, for use in calibrating instruments.\n21 The CQA certifying engineer will compare the results of the test pad constructed on the level surface with\n22 the results of the test pad on the side slopes. The CQA certifying engineer will recommend changes to\n23 compaction methods, if necessary, to the IDF project engineer. The CQA certifying engineer will prepare\n24 an interim report, which summarizes the construction and testing of the test pads.\n25 It is important to note that an acceptable zone has been established in the technical specifications for the\n26 allowable moisture content and density ranges that are applicable for the SBL admix to meet minimum\n27 permeability requirements. This zone may be adjusted as a result of the test pad data obtained during\n28 construction to reflect specific conditions observed based on the construction general contractor's\n29 proposed blending, placement, and compaction methods. With the range of placement moisture content\n30 and density allowed with this approach, minimum compaction effort (i.e., the number of passes a piece of\n31 compaction equipment needs to bring the admix into the allowable moisture/density zone) will vary based\n32 on material conditions and placement location. Minimum compaction effort recommendations will be\n33 developed by the CQA certifying engineer for application to both bottom slope and side-slope admix\n34 construction based on test pad results. However, these minimums should be considered as guidelines\n35 only and may need to be adjusted based on changes to admix properties (primarily moisture content), site\n36 conditions, and compaction location as needed to bring the admix into the required acceptable zone for\n37 compaction.\n38 2.3.2 Soil Bentonite Admix Liner\n39 The CQA team will verify and document that the SBL is placed to the elevations, grades, and thicknesses\n40 shown in the construction drawings, with bentonite-amended material meeting the requirements of the\n41 technical specifications as determined by the test methods and frequencies specified within this CQA\n42 Plan.\n43 2.3.2.1 Construction Quality Assurance Evaluation\n44 CQA testing will be performed during processing and placement of the SBL. The CQA team will\n45 conduct the processing and placement tests for the SBL as specified in Table 2-5. The maximum\n46 allowable percentage of failing tests is specified in Table 2-6.\nAppendix 4B.25\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Processing\n2 The construction general contractor shall process and condition admix material using a central type\n3 pugmill plant as described in the technical specifications. Prior to amending the base soil with bentonite,\n4 a CQA representative will verify and document the following:\n5 * Equipment and methods are the same or equivalent as determined from the test pad studies.\n6 * All submittals have been reviewed and approved.\n7 * The base soil source area (either onsite excavation or borrow area) has been approved by the\n8 design engineer, IDF PM, or IDF project engineer.\n9 * The mixing equipment is suitable for amending base soils with bentonite.\n10 * The base soil does not contain rocks with dimensions in excess of those required by the technical\n11 specifications.\n12 During processing, the CQA representative will verify and document the following:\n13 * The bentonite is in conformance with the technical specifications.\n14 * Close observation of the base soil excavation and processing is performed by the field inspector.\n15 * The processed SBL material meets the requirements of the technical specifications as determined\n16 by the CQA testing methods and frequency in Table 2-5.\n17 * The moisture content and consistency of base soil allow bentonite to be mixed uniformly.\n18 * Bentonite amendments are mixed uniformly with the base soil.\n19 * The processed SBL material is stored, protected, and allowed to cure in accordance with the\n20 conditions and minimum requirements of the technical specifications.\n21 * Calibration of the pugmill operation feed rate controls for bentonite, base soil, and water.\n22 * The bentonite is mixed at the required application rate, established by the technical specifications\n23 as determined by the CQA testing methods and frequency in Table 2-5.\n24 The CQA representative will document the properties of the processed soil bentonite material, as\n25 determined by the test methods and frequency prescribed by this CQA Plan, and will report any non-\n26 conformance with the technical specifications, following procedures outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n27 The CQA representative will observe processing activities including base soil excavation, bentonite\n28 blending, and moisture conditioning.\n29 The CQA representative will monitor the excavation of base soil from the approved borrow source or\n30 onsite excavations. Deleterious base soil or base soil not meeting the technical specifications will be\n31 identified and reported to the CQA certifying engineer and not allowed in the processing area.\n32 CQA tests will be performed on the raw bentonite used in the SBL to verify conformance to the technical\n33 specifications. The CQA representative will collect samples of raw bentonite delivered to the site for\n34 testing. The CQA laboratory technician will conduct free swell, and grain size tests of the bentonite in\n35 accordance with Table 2-5. If the test results of a sample fail to meet specifications, a confirmatory test\n36 will be performed immediately subsequent to the failed test. If the confirmatory test meets or exceeds\n37 specifications, a second confirmatory test will be performed. If the second confirmatory test also meets or\n38 exceeds specifications, the bentonite will be declared as meeting project specifications and the\n39 confirmatory tests will be reported. In the event that either confirmatory test fails to meet specifications,\n40 the bentonite will be rejected and removed from the site.\n41 The CQA representative will observe mixing and test the bentonite-amended soil, prior to placing it in the\n42 landfill.\n43 Placement\n44 Prior to the placement of the SBL, the CQA representative will verify and document the following:\nAppendix 4B.26\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * The test pads have been constructed with the approved liner material and production scale\n2 equipment to confirm placement and compaction procedures produce the required low-\n3 permeability admix for both on a horizontal surface and on a 3H: IV side slope.\n4 * All or an approved portion of the prepared subgrade meets specifications as determined by the\n5 test requirements of this CQA Plan and the CQA certifying engineer has issued the completion\n6 certificate.\n7 * The SBL material is free of roots, stumps, vegetation, or any other type of deleterious material\n8 that may impact the performance of the placed SBL.\n9 * The SBL material does not contain stones with dimensions in excess of those required by the\n10 technical specifications.\n11 * The SBL material meets or exceeds the requirements of the technical specifications as determined\n12 by the CQA testing methods and frequency in Table 2-5.\n13 * The moisture content of the SBL material is uniform.\n14 During placement and compaction of the SBL, the CQA Team will verify and document the following:\n15 * Close observation of the placement and compaction of SBL material with earthmoving equipment\n16 is performed by the field inspectors. Inspectors to verify that means and methods are the same as\n17 those approved in the test pad process.\n18 * The SBL material meets the requirements of the technical specifications as determined by the\n19 CQA testing methods and frequency in Table 2-5 and is within the maximum allowable failure\n20 rates in Table 2-6.\n21 * The SBL is placed in accordance with the conditions and minimum requirements of the technical\n22 specifications.\n23 * Each lift is compacted to the required thickness and minimum dry unit weight within the range of\n24 moisture contents established by the technical specifications as determined by the CQA testing\n25 methods and frequency in Table 2-5.\n26 * Shelby tube samples are collected for laboratory permeability testing at the frequency specified in\n27 Table 2-5.\n28 * Penetrations in the SBL at testing and sampling locations are repaired in accordance with the\n29 technical specifications.\n30 * The SBL is maintained until it is covered by the geomembrane liner in accordance with the\n31 technical specifications.\n32 * In areas of inaccessibility by the compactor, in areas of nonstandard SBL placement, and/or in\n33 areas of different compaction methods, more frequent testing will be performed due to thinner lift\n34 thicknesses to achieve equivalent compactive effort. Each lift, no matter how thin, will be tested\n35 for density and moisture in accordance with Table 2-5.\n36 The CQA representative will document the properties of the SBL as determined by the test methods and\n37 frequency prescribed by this CQA Plan and will report any non-conformance in accordance with the\n38 non-conformance reporting, as outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n39 The CQA representatives will collect samples immediately after a loose lift of SBL materials has been\n40 placed for property tests, prior to compaction. Once compacted, nuclear density gauge test methods will\n41 be used for testing the in situ compacted dry unit weight and moisture content of the SBL. Standard\n42 count calibration and moisture content tests will be used to calibrate the reading of the nuclear density\n43 gauge. Standard count calibration and in situ moisture content tests, using the oven dry method, will be\n44 performed at the frequencies specified in Table 2-5. The results of the oven dry moisture content tests\n45 will be compared with the field moisture content results to determine a field moisture correction factor.\nAppendix 4B.27\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The CQA representative will adjust the field moisture correction factor as test data is collected (i.e.,\n2 moving average). The CQA representative will collect Shelby tube samples of the SBL for laboratory\n3 permeability tests as specified in Table 2-5.\n4 If in-place density test results fail to meet specifications, a confirmatory test will be performed\n5 immediately adjacent to (within 3 ft of) the failed test. If the confirmatory test meets or exceeds\n6 specifications, a second confirmatory test will be performed at a second location immediately next to\n7 (within 3 ft of) the failed test. If the second confirmatory test also meets or exceeds specifications, the\n8 area will be declared as meeting project specifications and the confirmatory tests will be reported. In the\n9 event that either confirmatory test fails to meet specifications, additional testing will be performed to\n10 identify the limits of the area that does not meet project specifications. All confirmatory tests, failing\n11 tests, and re-tests will be recorded in the CQA representative's field book or compaction testing form.\n12 The approximate location and elevation of each test will be recorded.\n13 Rapid laboratory permeability tests, such as the constant volume tests, will be used when possible to\n14 determine permeability. Once the sample has achieved the specified permeability, the test result will be\n15 reported immediately to the CQA certifying engineer. The number of failing tests will be less than the\n16 maximum percentage of failing tests specified in Table 2-6. The maximum percentage of failing tests are\n17 anticipated to cover laboratory or field recording mistakes, math errors, or other unknown circumstances\n18 that are not discovered until after the layer is covered with the succeeding layer(s). Otherwise, all failed\n19 tests will be corrected in the field as they are observed.\n20 If a defective area is discovered in the SBL other than a failed in-place density test, the CQA\n21 representative will determine the extent and nature of the defect. If the defect is indicated by an\n22 unsatisfactory test result, the CQA representative will determine the extent of the defective area by\n23 additional tests, observations, a review of records, or other means that the CQA representative deems\n24 appropriate. If the defect is related to adverse site conditions, such as excessively wet soils or surface\n25 desiccation, the CQA representative will define the limits and nature of the defect by testing or\n26 observation. After the extent and nature of a defect is determined and remedied by the construction\n27 general contractor, the CQA representative will verify that the deficiency has been corrected by re-testing\n28 repaired areas before any additional work is performed by the construction general contractor in the area\n29 of the deficiency.\n30 The testing frequency during the SBL construction may be increased or modified at the discretion of the\n31 CQA certifying engineer, when visual observations of construction performance indicate potential\n32 problems or when field experience with the proposed SBL material have been obtained.\n33 During construction, the frequency of testing may be increased by the CQA representative during adverse\n34 weather conditions, if equipment breaks down, at the start and finish of grading, if the material fails to\n35 meet the requirements of the technical specifications, or if the extent of the work area is reduced.\n36 The construction general contractor will repair all penetrations in the SBL resulting from sampling and\n37 other CQA activities, in accordance with the technical specifications. These perforations will be\n38 identified to the construction general contractor by the CQA representative. All repairs will be inspected\n39 by the CQA representative.\n40 The construction general contractor will be required to use all means necessary to protect all prior work as\n41 well as all materials and completed work of other sections. In the event of damage, the construction\n42 general contractor will be required to make immediately all repairs and replacements necessary. The\n43 CQA representative will verify and document that all damages are repaired.\n44 2.3.2.2 Layer Completion Certification\n45 The construction general contractor will be required to notify the CQA representative when an area of\n46 SBL is complete, prior to constructing the overlying layer. The construction general contractor may\n47 begin placement of the overlying layer after acceptance of the SBL by the CQA certifying engineer.\nAppendix 4B.28\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The CQA certifying engineer will provide a certificate of layer completion to the construction general\n2 contractor and the IDF project engineer, certifying that the area is complete.\n3 The CQA certifying engineer will ensure all CQA tests are complete and that all defective areas have\n4 been repaired and re-tested in accordance with this CQA Plan and the technical specifications. The\n5 certificate of layer completion will indicate that the SBL meets the low permeability requirement, based\n6 on laboratory tests and the thickness of the SBL meeting the minimum requirement specified in the\n7 technical specifications.\n8 2.4 Drain Gravel\n9 2.4.1 Conformance Evaluation\n10 No CQA conformance material testing is planned for the drain gravel. Construction general contractor is\n11 required to submit gradation test results demonstrating conformance with required material properties as\n12 part of source quality control, in accordance with the technical specifications.\n13 2.4.2 Placement and Compaction\n14 The CQA representative will verify and document that the drain gravel is constructed to the elevations,\n15 grades, and thicknesses shown in the construction drawings, with material meeting the requirements of\n16 the technical specifications as determined by the test methods and frequencies specified within this CQA\n17 Plan.\n18 Prior to the placement of the drain gravel, the CQA representative will verify and document that:\n19 * The underlying geosynthetic layers are free of holes, tears, excessive wrinkles, or foreign objects.\n20 * All work on underlying layers is complete and accepted by the CQA certifying engineer.\n21 During placement and compaction of the drain gravel, the CQA representative will verify and document\n22 the following:\n23 * Drain gravel material satisfies the requirements of the technical specifications as determined by\n24 the source quality control submittals.\n25 * Drain gravel material is non-angular and free of material that could damage the underlying liner\n26 materials.\n27 * Drain gravel material is spread during cooler portions of the day, unless otherwise approved by\n28 the CQA certifying engineer.\n29 * Spreading and hauling equipment and operations are in compliance with material thickness and\n30 operations requirements, given in the technical specifications.\n31 * If excessive wrinkles begin to develop in the underlying geosynthetics during gravel or sand\n32 placement or spreading, the wrinkles are worked out prior to continued placement operations.\n33 * The drain gravel is placed in a manner that will not damage underlying geosynthetics, will\n34 minimize slippage of geosynthetic layers, and will not provide excess tensile stress on the\n35 geosynthetics, in accordance with the technical specifications.\n36 * Close observation of the placement and compaction of drain gravel with earth moving equipment\n37 is performed.\n38 2.4.3 Construction Quality Assurance Evaluation\n39 No density tests will be conducted on the drain gravel. If the CQA representative suspects damage to\n40 pipes or underlying geosynthetic, the construction general contractor will be required to expose the\n41 potentially damaged materials and repair any observed damage.\n42 2.4.4 Layer Completion Certification\n43 The construction general contractor will be required to notify the CQA representative when an area of the\n44 LCRS or LDS drain gravel is complete, prior to constructing the overlying layer.\nAppendix 4B.29\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The construction general contractor may begin placing the overlying layer when the drain gravel is\n2 accepted by the CQA certifying engineer. The CQA certifying engineer will provide a certificate of layer\n3 completion to the construction general contractor and the IDF project engineer, certifying that the area is\n4 complete.\n5 2.5 Operations Layer\n6 The CQA representative will verify and document that the operations layer, including the operations layer\n7 material placed in the SLDS sump area, is constructed to the elevations, grades, and thicknesses shown in\n8 the construction drawings, with material meeting the requirements of the technical specifications as\n9 determined by the test methods and frequencies specified within this CQA Plan.\n10 Prior to the placement of the operations layer, the CQA representative will verify and document the\n11 following:\n12 * The underlying geosynthetic layer is free of holes, tears, excessive wrinkles, or foreign objects.\n13 * All work on underlying layers is complete and accepted by the CQA certifying engineer.\n14 During placement of the operations layer, the CQA representative will verify and document that:\n15 * The soil is suitable and satisfies the requirements of the technical specifications as determined by\n16 the test methods and frequencies prescribed in Table 2-7.\n17 * The operations soil is placed in accordance with the technical specifications and construction\n18 drawings.\n19 * The lift thicknesses and total thickness of the operations layer agree with the requirements of the\n20 construction drawings.\n21 * If excessive wrinkles begin to develop in the underlying geosynthetics during material placement\n22 or spreading, the wrinkles are worked out prior to continued placement operations.\n23 * The operations layer is placed in a manner that will not damage underlying geosynthetics, will\n24 minimize slippage of geosynthetic layers, and will not provide excess tensile stress on the\n25 geosynthetics, in accordance with the technical specifications.\n26 * Spreading and hauling equipment and operations are in compliance with material thickness and\n27 operations requirements given in the technical specifications.\n28 * The operations layer is placed on the side slopes to the limits shown in the construction drawings.\n29 * No operations layer material is placed or compacted during periods of unfavorable weather\n30 conditions, such as after heavy rains or snow, in accordance with requirements given in the\n31 technical specifications.\n32 2.5.1 Conformance Evaluation\n33 The test methods and frequencies for CQA conformance testing for the operations layer are specified in\n34 Table 2-7.\n35 If damage to underlying geosynthetics is suspected, the CQA representative will require that the overlying\n36 operations layer material be removed to expose the geosynthetics.\n37 The construction general contractor will be required to use all means necessary to protect all prior work,\n38 as well as all materials and completed work of other sections. In the event of damage, the construction\n39 general contractor will be required to make immediately all repairs and replacements necessary. The\n40 CQA representative will verify and document that all damages are repaired.\n41 2.5.2 Layer Completion Certification\n42 The construction general contractor will be required to notify the CQA representative when an area of the\n43 operations layer is complete. The CQA certifying engineer will provide a certificate of layer completion\n44 to the construction general contractor and the IDF project engineer, certifying that the area is complete.\nAppendix 4B.30\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 2.6 Soil Surveying\n2 A survey will be performed by or under the direction of a professional land surveyor registered in the\n3 State of Washington. The surveyor will independently survey the elevations and grades of the soil layers\n4 including, but not limited to:\n5 * Top of prepared subgrade.\n6 * Top of SBL.\n7 * Top of LCRS drain gravel.\n8 * Top of operations layer.\n9 Surveys will be performed on the base, side slopes of the landfill, to confirm that the grades and\n10 elevations in the field agree with those shown in the construction drawings and with the minimum\n11 acceptable tolerances required in the technical specifications. The results of the survey, conducted by the\n12 surveyor, will be compiled in a report signed by the surveyor and the CQA certifying engineer.\n13 The surveyor will be required to survey each soil layer of the liner system for the IDF landfill, in\n14 accordance with the requirements of this CQA Plan.

The CQA representative will\n6 examine GCL rolls upon delivery and deviation from the above requirements will be reported to the CQA\n7 certifying engineer prior to installation of the GCL.\n8 3.1.2 Transportation and Handling\n9 The CQA representative will observe and document that the type of GCL handling equipment used by the\n10 installer minimizes damage to the material. Upon delivery at the site, the CQA representative will\n11 conduct a visual inspection of all rolls for defects and for damage. This examination will be conducted\n12 without unrolling rolls unless visible defects or damages are found. The CQA representative will indicate\n13 to the CQA certifying engineer:\n14 * Any rolls that need to be unrolled to allow for their inspection.\n15 * Any rolls, or portions thereof, that need to be rejected and removed from the site because they\n16 have severe flaws.\n17 * Any rolls that include minor repairable flaws.\n18 3.1.3 Storage\n19 The CQA representative will verify and document that storage of the GCL is in accordance with the\n20 technical specifications.\n21 3.1.4 Inventory\n22 All geosynthetic materials that arrive onsite will be inventoried. The inventory will include the specific\n23 roll numbers delivered with each shipment. The inventory will be compared to the QC testing\n24 information, supplied by the manufacturer to ensure that the material tested is the same material that was\n25 delivered to the site. Material for which QC testing data has been supplied will be sampled for\n26 conformance testing. Conformance samples may be obtained by the CQA representative at the\n27 manufacturing plant or taken upon delivery of the material to the site by a CQA representative. As\n28 shipments arrive at the site, a CQA representative will monitor the unloading operations and will\n29 inventory the material. Rolls selected for conformance testing will be set aside for sampling as soon as\n30 possible.\n31 The CQA representative will record the following information, at a minimum, for each roll:\n32 * Manufacturer-Indicate the manufacturer of the material that is being inventoried, which may\n33 not be the same as the installer.\n34 * Date of Inventory-Date that the material was inventoried.\n35 * Date of Delivery-Enter date when the truck arrived onsite, if known.\n36 * Truck Type-Indicate type of truck used for shipping geosynthetics (covered or uncovered\n37 flatbed, box trailer).\n38 * Bill of Lading Number-If the bill-of-lading is available, indicate number and date (also attach\n39 copy to inventory form).\n40 * CQA Representative-Indicate name of CQA representative performing inventory.\n41 * Unloading Equipment-Indicate the type and model number of the equipment unloading the\n42 geosynthetic material; also note any special attachments that are used to unload the material\n43 (stinger, straps, forks).\nAppendix 4B.36\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Weather Conditions-Describe the weather conditions, including temperature, wind, cloud cover,\n2 and precipitation during unloading and conformance sampling operation.\n3 * Material Type-Indicate type of geosynthetic material.\n4 * Roll Number-Indicate each roll number that is written on the roll. (The roll numbers contain a\n5 variety of information regarding the material and the manufacturing process.)\n6 * Lot Number-Lot number.\n7 * Roll (L x W)-Indicate the roll width as written on the roll label; if two materials are bonded\n8 together (i.e., geonet/geotextile), obtain measurements for both materials.\n9 * Area (square feet)-Indicate the total square footage of the roll.\n10 * Damage Remarks-Document any visible damage to the roll; if possible, indicate if damage was\n11 present prior to unloading or if it occurred during unloading.\n12 The CQA representative will immediately notify the IDF CM if a nonconforming or conditional use tag is\n13 attached to any of the inventoried items.\n14 Items that are restricted from further use until the inspections have been completed will be clearly\n15 delineated by the CQA representative. Accepted materials will be kept separate or clearly delineated\n16 from inventoried and approved items, to the extent possible. The CQA representative will be responsible\n17 for coordinating with the construction general contractor during material delivery, so that the material is\n18 not moved more than necessary after it is unloaded and damage due to handling is minimized.\n19 The CQA representative will perform the inventory immediately after the material arrives on the site to\n20 avoid delaying construction. The CQA representative will be responsible for verifying that only accepted\n21 material is installed at the IDF landfill and that all inventories and inspections are documented and\n22 maintained.\n23 3.1.5 Quality Assurance Conformance Testing\n24 Either at the manufacturer's plant or upon delivery of the rolls of GCL, the CQA representative will\n25 ensure that samples are removed at the specified frequency and forwarded to the Geosynthetics CQA\n26 Laboratory for testing, to verify and document conformance with the technical specifications.\n27 Conformance samples will be taken across the entire width of the roll and will not include the first 3 feet\n28 along the length of the roll. Unless otherwise specified, samples will be 1.5 feet (minimum) long by the\n29 roll width. The CQA representative will mark the machine direction on the samples with an arrow.\n30 Unless otherwise specified, samples will be taken at a rate of one per lot or one per 50,000 square feet,\n31 whichever is greater. These samples will be tested for:\n32 * Index Flux (ASTM D5887).\n33 * Bentonite Mass per Unit Area (ASTM D5993).\n34 * Bentonite Swell Index Test (ASTM D5890).\n35 The test will be conducted in accordance with the test procedure presented in the technical specifications.\n36 The CQA representative will examine all results from laboratory conformance testing and compare the\n37 results to the specifications presented in the technical specifications. In addition, the CQA representative\n38 will report any non-conformance to the CQA certifying engineer as soon as practical after the test results\n39 become available.\n40 The following procedure will apply whenever a sample fails a conformance test that is conducted by the\n41 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory:\n42 * The construction general contractor will be required to replace the roll (or rolls) of GCL not in\n43 conformance with the specifications with a roll, that meets the requirements of the technical\n44 specifications.\nAppendix 4B.37\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n* The CQA representative will ensure that conformance samples are removed for testing by the\n2 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory from the closest numerical roll on both sides of the roll from\n3 which the failing sample was obtained. These two samples must pass the above conformance\n4 tests. If either of these samples fails to meet the requirements, samples will be collected from the\n5 five numerically closest untested rolls on both sides of the failed samples and tested by the\n6 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory. These ten samples must pass the above conformance tests. If\n7 any of these samples fail, a sample from every roll of GCL onsite and a sample from every roll\n8 that is subsequently delivered from the same manufacturer must be conformance tested by the\n9 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory until the manufacturer has thoroughly demonstrated compliance\n10 with the above requirements to the sole satisfaction of the CQA certifying engineer. The costs of\n11 all such tests are to be borne by the construction general contractor.\n12 * The CQA representative will document actions taken in conjunction with conformance test\n13 failures as outlined in Section 8.1.4 and report all actions to the CQA certifying officer.\n14 3.2 Geosynthetic Clay Liner Installation\n15 3.2.1 Surface Preparation\n16 For fill surfaces that will underlay a GCL layer, the CQA representative will verify and document the\n17 following:\n18 * The surface of the fill does not contain holes, ruts, protrusions, or other surface irregularities in\n19 excess of those dimensions specified by the technical specifications.\n20 * The surface of the fill has been compacted to form a firm, stable base.\n21 * The surface of the fill is free of any type of deleterious material that may cause damage to GCL,\n22 including debris, organic material, frozen soil, ice, and rocks.\n23 * The surface of the fill is free of standing water or excessive moisture.\n24 * The construction general contractor has certified in writing that the surface on which the GCL\n25 will be installed is acceptable.\n26 The subgrade surface will be inspected immediately prior to commencement of GCL installation. If any\n27 change in the surface requires repair work, in accordance with the technical specifications, the\n28 construction general contractor will be responsible for repairing the fill surface.\n29 A certificate of subgrade surface acceptance will be required from the construction general contractor.\n30 The CQA representative will verify that the subgrade is accepted by the GCL installer, immediately prior\n31 to commencement of GCL installation.\n32 After the surface on which the GCL is to be installed has been accepted by the construction general\n33 contractor, it will be the CQA representative's responsibility to indicate to the CQA certifying engineer\n34 any change in the underlying layer that may, in accordance with the technical specifications, require\n35 repair work. If the CQA certifying engineer requires that repair work be done, it will be the responsibility\n36 of the construction general contractor to repair the underlying layer.\n37 3.2.2 Anchor Trenches and Sumps\n38 Prior to placement of geosynthetics in the anchor trenches or sumps, the CQA representative will verify\n39 and document the following:\n40 * The sumps and anchor trenches are excavated to the grades and dimensions shown in the\n41 construction drawings. Any anomalies in the soil encountered during excavation will be brought\n42 to the attention of the IDF project engineer and removed as directed.\n43 * The anchor trench excavation surface is prepared for installation of geosynthetics, with rounded\n44 corners, and free of loose soil or deleterious material.\nAppendix 4B.38\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 After geosynthetics deployment into the anchor trench is complete, the CQA representative will verify\n2 and document that the backfill for the geosynthetic anchor trenches is placed and compacted in\n3 accordance with the technical specifications.\n4 3.2.3 Geosynthetic Clay Liner Deployment\n5 3.2.3.1 Field Panel Identification\n6 A field panel is the unit area of GCL that is to be placed in the field (i.e., a field panel is a roll or a portion\n7 of roll cut in the field).\n8 The CQA representative will track the placement location of each GCL panel by assigning an\n9 identification code (number or letter-number) or by an equivalent tracking method. The identification\n10 method will be agreed upon by the CQA certifying engineer and the construction general contractor. This\n11 field panel identification scheme will be as simple and logical as possible. (Note: manufacturing plant\n12 roll numbers are usually cumbersome and are not related to location in the field.) It will be the\n13 responsibility of the construction general contractor to ensure that each field panel placed is marked with\n14 the manufacturing plant roll number. The roll number will be marked in the center of the panel in a color\n15 to allow for easy inspection.\n16 The CQA representative will establish a table or chart showing correspondence between manufacturing\n17 plant roll numbers and field panel identification codes. The field panel identification code will be used\n18 for all CQA records.\n19 3.2.3.2 Field Panel Placement\n20 Installation Schedule\n21 The CQA representative will evaluate significant changes in the schedule, proposed by the construction\n22 general contractor, and will advise the CQA certifying engineer on the acceptability of that change. The\n23 CQA representative will verify and document that the condition of the underlying layer has not changed\n24 detrimentally during installation. Any damage to the surface of the underlying layer will be repaired by\n25 the construction general contractor, in accordance with the technical specifications.\n26 Weather Conditions\n27 The CQA representative will verify and document that GCL is not placed during inclement weather\n28 conditions, as specified in the technical specifications. Additionally, the CQA monitor will verify and\n29 document that the existing underlying layer has not been damaged by weather conditions.\n30 Damage\n31 The CQA representative will visually observe each panel, after placement, for damage. The CQA\n32 representative will inform the construction general contractor which panels, or portions of panels, are\n33 rejected, repaired, or accepted. Damaged panels or portions of damaged panels that have been rejected by\n34 the CQA representative will be marked, and their removal from the work area will be documented by the\n35 CQA representative.\n36 Seam Overlap and Bentonite Seal\n37 The construction general contractor will observe and document that the seam overlaps and bentonite\n38 material placed between panels, if required, along the seams meets specification guidelines. The CQA\n39 representative will verify overlap width and will observe bentonite seal placement.\n40 3.2.3.3 Field Panel Protection\n41 The CQA representative will observe and document that the GCL is completely covered with\n42 geomembrane or protective plastic cover at the end of each workday and protected from damage and\n43 hydration due to weather. The CQA representative will verify and document that equipment does not\n44 operate directly on the GCL and that a smooth rub sheet is used to maneuver textured geomembrane over\n45 the GCL to prevent damage to the GCL.\nAppendix 4B.39\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.2.4 Defects and Repairs\n2 Any defects and subsequent repairs will be documented, using NCR procedures outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n3 3.2.4.1 Identification\n4 All seams and non-seam areas of the GCL will be inspected by the CQA representative for evidence of\n5 defects, holes, contamination of geotextiles, displaced panels, premature hydration, and any sign of\n6 contamination by foreign matter. The CQA representative will observe and document repair procedures\n7 described below.\n8 3.2.4.2 Repair Procedures\n9 Prior to cover material placement, damage to the GCL will be identified and repaired by the installer.\n10 Rip and Tear Repair (Flat Surfaces)\n11 Rips or tears may be repaired by completely exposing the affected area, removing all foreign objects or\n12 soil, and by then placing a patch cut from unused GCL over the damage (damaged material may be left in\n13 place), with a minimum overlap of 12 inches on all edges.\n14 Accessory bentonite will be placed between the patch edges and the repaired material at a rate of a quarter\n15 pound per lineal foot of edge, spread in a continuous 6-inch fillet.\n16 Rip and Tear Repair (Slopes)\n17 Damaged GCL material on slopes will be repaired by the same procedures as described above, however,\n18 the overlapped edges of the patch need to be wide enough to ensure the patch will keep its position during\n19 backfill or cover operations.\n20 Displaced Panels\n21 Displaced panels will be adjusted to the correct position and orientation. The adjusted panel will then be\n22 inspected for any geotextile damage or bentonite loss. Damage will be repaired by the above-described\n23 procedure.\n24 Premature Hydration\n25 If the GCL is subjected to premature hydration, the construction general contractor will notify the CQA\n26 certifying engineer for a site-specific determination as to whether the material is acceptable or if\n27 alternative measures must be taken to ensure the quality of the design dependent upon the degree of\n28 damage.\n29\nAppendix 4B.40\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 SECTION 4 GEOMEMBRANE CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE\n2 4.1 Geomembrane Material\n3 4.1.1 Labeling\n4 The CQA representative will verify and document that the geomembrane manufacturer has labeled each\n5 roll of geomembrane and includes the information required by the technical specifications. The CQA\n6 representative will examine geomembrane rolls upon delivery and deviation from the requirements will\n7 be reported to the CQA certifying engineer, prior to installation of the geomembrane.\n8 4.1.2 Transportation and Handling\n9 Upon delivery at the site, the CQA representative will conduct a visual inspection of all rolls for defects\n10 and damage. This examination will be conducted without unrolling rolls unless visible defects or damage\n11 is found. The CQA representative will indicate the following to the CQA certifying engineer:\n12 * Any rolls that need to be unrolled to allow for their inspection.\n13 * Any rolls, or portions thereof, that need to be rejected and removed from the site because they\n14 have severe flaws.\n15 * Any rolls that include minor repairable flaws.\n16 4.1.3 Storage\n17 The CQA representative will verify and document that storage of the geomembrane is in accordance with\n18 the technical specifications.\n19 4.1.4 Inventory\n20 All geosynthetic materials that arrive onsite will be inventoried in accordance with the technical\n21 specifications. The inventory will include the specific roll numbers delivered with each shipment. The\n22 inventory will be compared to the QC testing information supplied by the manufacturer to ensure that the\n23 material tested is the same material that was delivered to the site. Material for which QC testing data has\n24 been supplied will be sampled for conformance testing. Conformance samples may be obtained by the\n25 CQA representative at the manufacturing plant or taken upon delivery of the material to the site by a CQA\n26 representative. As shipments arrive at the site, a CQA representative will monitor the unloading\n27 operations and will inventory the material. Rolls selected for conformance testing will be set aside for\n28 sampling as soon as possible.\n29 The CQA representative will record the following information, at a minimum, for each roll:\n30 * Manufacturer-indicate the manufacturer of the material that is being inventoried, that may not\n31 be the same as the installer.\n32 * Date of Inventory-Date that the material was inventoried.\n33 * Date of Delivery-Enter date when the truck arrived onsite, if known.\n34 * Truck Type-Indicate type of truck used for shipping geosynthetics (covered or uncovered\n35 flatbed, box trailer).\n36 * Bill-of-Lading Number-If the bill-of-lading is available, indicate number and date (also attach\n37 copy to inventory form).\n38 * CQA Representative-Indicate name of CQA representative performing inventory.\n39 * Unloading Equipment-Indicate the type and model number of the equipment unloading the\n40 geosynthetic material; also note any special attachments that are used to unload the material\n41 (stinger, straps, forks).\n42 * Weather Conditions-Describe the weather conditions, including temperature, wind, cloud cover,\n43 and precipitation during unloading and conformance sampling operation.\n44 * Material Type-Indicate type of geosynthetic material (HDPE, geotextile, or geonet)\nAppendix 4B.41\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Roll Number-Indicate each roll number that is indicated on the roll. (The roll numbers contain a\n2 variety of information regarding the material and the manufacture process.)\n3 * Lot Number-Lot number as indicated.\n4 * Roll (L x W)-Indicate the roll width as indicated on the roll label; if two materials are bonded\n5 together (i.e., geonet/geotextile), obtain measurements for both materials.\n6 * Area (square feet)-Indicate the total square footage of the roll.\n7 * Damage Remarks-Document any visible damage to the roll; if possible, indicate if damage was\n8 present prior to unloading or if it occurred during unloading.\n9 Items that are restricted from further use until the inspections have been completed will be clearly\n10 delineated by the CQA representative. Accepted materials will be kept separate or clearly delineated\n11 from inventoried and approved items to the extent possible. The CQA representative will be responsible\n12 for coordinating with the construction general contractor during material delivery, so that the material is\n13 not moved more than necessary after it is unloaded and damage due to handling is minimized.\n14 The CQA representative will perform the inventory immediately after the material arrives onsite to avoid\n15 delaying construction. The CQA representative will be responsible for verifying that only accepted\n16 material is installed at the IDF landfill, and that all inventories and inspections are documented and\n17 maintained.\n18 4.1.5 Quality Assurance Conformance Testing\n19 Either at the manufacturer's plant or upon delivery of the rolls of geomembrane, the CQA representative\n20 will ensure that samples are removed at the specified frequency and forwarded to the Geosynthetics CQA\n21 Laboratory for testing to verify and document conformance with the technical specifications.\n22 Conformance samples will be taken by the CQA representative across the entire width of the roll and will\n23 not include the first 3 feet. Unless otherwise specified, samples will be 3 feet (minimum) long by the roll\n24 width. The CQA representative will mark the direction of the machine used to cut the samples with an\n25 arrow.\n26 Unless otherwise specified, samples will be taken at a rate of one per lot or one per 50,000 square feet,\n27 whichever is greater. These samples will be tested for:\n28 * Thickness (ASTM D5199 or D5994).\n29 * Tensile characteristics (yield strength and elongation at yield, ASTM D638).\n30 * Asperity (GRI GM-12).\n31 * Puncture resistance (ASTM D4833).\n32 Test will be conducted in accordance with the test procedure presented in the technical specifications.\n33 The CQA representative will examine all results from laboratory conformance testing and will report any\n34 non-conformance after the test results become available. The following procedure will apply whenever a\n35 sample fails a conformance test that is conducted by the CQA representative:\n36 * The construction general contractor will be required to replace the roll (or rolls) of geomembrane\n37 in non-conformance with the technical specifications with a roll, that meets the technical\n38 specifications.\n39 * The CQA certifying engineer will ensure that conformance samples are removed for testing by\n40 the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory from the closest numerical roll on both sides of the failed roll.\n41 These two samples must pass the above conformance tests. If either of these samples fails,\n42 samples will be collected from the five numerically closest untested rolls on both sides of the\n43 failed sample and tested by the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory. These ten samples must pass the\n44 above conformance tests.\nAppendix 4B.42\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 If any of these samples fail, a sample from every roll of geomembrane onsite and every roll\n2 subsequently delivered from the same manufacturer must be conformance tested by the\n3 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory, until the manufacturer has thoroughly demonstrated compliance\n4 with the above requirements to the sole satisfaction of the CQA certifying engineer. The costs of\n5 all such tests are to be borne by the construction general contractor.\n6 4.1.6 Manufacturing Plant Site Visit\n7 The manufacturer shall allow the CQA certifying engineer or his designated representative to visit the\n8 manufacturing plant, if the CQA certifying engineer so chooses. If possible, the visit shall be prior to or\n9 during the manufacturing of the geomembrane rolls for the specific project. The CQA Engineer or his\n10 designated representative shall review the manufacturing process, quality control, laboratory facilities,\n11 and testing procedures as described in the technical specifications (see Section 02661).\n12 4.2 Installation\n13 4.2.1 Surface Preparation\n14 For SBL surfaces that will underlay a geomembrane layer, the CQA representative will verify and\n15 document the following:\n16 * The surface of the subgrade or SBL does not contain holes, depressions, or protrusions in excess\n17 of those dimensions specified by the technical specifications.\n18 * The surface of the subgrade or SBL has been rolled with a smooth-drum roller to form a firm\n19 stable base without ridges, wheel ruts, and surface irregularities.\n20 * The surface of the subgrade or SBL is free of any type of deleterious material that may cause\n21 damage to geomembrane.\n22 * The construction general contractor has certified in writing that the surface on which the\n23 geomembrane will be installed is acceptable.\n24 The subgrade and SBL surface will be inspected immediately prior to commencement of geomembrane\n25 installation. If any change in the surface requires repair work, in accordance with the technical\n26 specifications, the construction general contractor will be responsible for repairing the surface. A\n27 certificate of subgrade surface acceptance will be required from the construction general contractor. The\n28 CQA representative will verify that the subgrade is accepted by the geomembrane installer immediately\n29 prior to commencement of geomembrane installation.\n30 After the surface on which the geomembrane is to be installed has been accepted by the construction\n31 general contractor, it will be the CQA representative's responsibility to indicate to the CQA certifying\n32 engineer any change in the underlying layer that may, in accordance with the technical specifications,\n33 require repair work. If the CQA certifying engineer requires that repair work be done, it will be the\n34 responsibility of the construction general contractor to repair the underlying layer.\n35 4.2.2 Anchor Trenches and Sumps\n36 Prior to placement of geosynthetics in the anchor trenches or sumps, the CQA representative will verify\n37 and document the following:\n38 * The excavation of the sumps and anchor trenches is performed in accordance with the technical\n39 specifications. Any anomalies in the soil encountered during excavation will be brought to the\n40 attention of the IDF project engineer and removed as directed.\n41 * The anchor trench excavation surface is prepared for installation of geosynthetics with rounded\n42 corners and is free of loose soil or deleterious material.\n43 After geosynthetics deployment into the anchor trench is complete, the CQA representative will verify\n44 and document that the backfill for the geosynthetic anchor trenches is placed and compacted in\n45 accordance with the technical specifications and construction drawings.\nAppendix 4B.43\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.2.3 Geomembrane Deployment\n2 4.2.3.1 Layout Drawing\n3 The construction general contractor will be required to produce layout drawings that show the\n4 geomembrane panel configuration, dimensions, details, and seam locations. The layout drawings must be\n5 approved by the CQA certifying engineer, prior to the installation of the geomembrane.\n6 4.2.3.2 Field Panel Identification\n7 A field panel is the unit area of geomembrane that is to be seamed in the field (i.e., a field panel is a roll\n8 or a portion of roll cut in the field).\n9 The CQA representative will verify that each field panel is given an identification code (number or letter-\n10 number) consistent with the layout plan. This identification code will be agreed upon by the CQA\n11 representative and the construction general contractor. This field panel identification code will be as\n12 simple and logical as possible. (Note: manufacturing plant roll numbers are usually cumbersome and are\n13 not related to location in the field.) It will be the responsibility of the construction general contractor to\n14 ensure that each field panel placed is marked with the manufacturing plant roll number. The roll number\n15 will be marked in the center of the panel in a color to allow for easy inspection.\n16 The CQA representative will establish a table or chart showing correspondence between manufacturing\n17 plant roll numbers and field panel identification codes. The field panel identification code will be used for\n18 all CQA records.\n19 4.2.3.3 Field Panel Placement\n20 Location\n21 The CQA representative will verify and document that field panels are installed at the locations and\n22 positions indicated in the construction general contractor's layout plan, as approved or modified by the\n23 CQA certifying engineer.\n24 Installation Schedule\n25 The CQA representative will evaluate significant changes in the schedule, proposed by the construction\n26 general contractor, and will advise the CQA certifying engineer on the acceptability of that change. The\n27 CQA representative will verify and document that the condition of the underlying layer has not changed\n28 detrimentally during installation. Any damage to the surface of the underlying layer will be repaired by\n29 the construction general contractor in accordance with the technical specifications.\n30 The CQA representative will record the identification code, location, and date of installation of each field\n31 panel.\n32 Weather Conditions\n33 The CQA representative will verify and document that geomembrane is not placed during inclement\n34 weather conditions, as specified in the technical specifications. Additionally, the CQA representative will\n35 verify and document that the underlying layer has not been damaged by weather conditions.\n36 Damage\n37 The CQA representatives will visually observe each panel, after placement and prior to seaming, for\n38 damage (e.g., holes, blisters, and creases). The CQA representative will inform the construction general\n39 contractor which panels, or portions of panels, need to be rejected, repaired, or accepted. Damaged panels\n40 or portions of damaged panels that have been rejected by the CQA certifying engineer will be marked,\n41 and their removal from the work area will be documented by the CQA representative, using the NCR\n42 procedures outlined in Section 8.1.4.\nAppendix 4B.44\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.2.4 Field Seaming\n2 4.2.4.1 Seam Layout\n3 The CQA certifying engineer will verify and document that the seam layout shown in the panel layout\n4 drawing is consistent with the technical specifications. A seam numbering system compatible with the\n5 panel numbering system will be agreed upon by the construction general contractor and CQA certifying\n6 engineer.\n7 4.2.4.2 Seaming Equipment and Products\n8 Processes approved by the technical specifications for field seaming are extrusion seaming; and fusion\n9 seaming. Proposed alternate processes will be required to be documented and submitted to the CQA\n10 certifying engineer for approval. The construction general contractor will be required to use a pyrometer\n11 to ensure that accurate temperatures of the extrudate and seamer nozzle are being achieved.\n12 The extrusion seaming apparatus will be equipped with gauges, indicating the temperatures of the\n13 extrudate and nozzle. The construction general contractor will be required to provide to the CQA\n14 certifying engineer the manufacturer's certification that the extrudate is compatible with the\n15 geomembrane material and is comprised of the same resin as the geomembrane.\n16 The CQA representative will log ambient temperatures, seaming apparatus temperatures, and extrudate\n17 temperatures or fusion seaming apparatus speeds. Ambient temperatures will be measured to verify\n18 compliance with the technical specifications.\n19 4.2.4.3 Seam Preparation\n20 The CQA certifying engineer will verify and document the following:\n21 * Prior to seaming, the seam area is clean and free of moisture, dust, dirt, debris, and foreign\n22 material.\n23 * Preparation of seams is in accordance with the technical specifications.\n24 4.2.4.4 Weather Conditions for Seaming\n25 The CQA representative will verify and document that weather conditions for seaming are within the\n26 limits specified in the technical specifications.\n27 4.2.4.5 Trial Seams\n28 The construction general contractor will be required to make trial seams on fragment pieces of\n29 geomembrane liner to verify that seaming conditions are adequate. The construction general contractor\n30 will be required to make and test trial seams at the frequency and in accordance with the methods\n31 specified in the technical specifications.\n32 The CQA representative will observe all trial seam procedures. The trial seam samples will be assigned a\n33 number and marked accordingly by the CQA representative, along with the date, hour, ambient\n34 temperature, number of seaming unit, name of seamer, and pass or fail description. A sample of the trial\n35 seam will be retained by the CQA team until the construction of the liner is complete and the liner has\n36 been accepted by the CQA certifying engineer.\n37 4.2.4.6 Nondestructive Seam Continuity Testing\n38 Except as otherwise noted in the technical specifications, the construction general contractor will\n39 nondestructively test all field seams over their full length, in accordance with the technical specifications.\n40 The purpose of nondestructive tests is to check the continuity of seams. Continuity testing will be carried\n41 out as the seaming work progresses, not at the completion of all field seaming.\n42\nAppendix 4B.45\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Nondestructive testing will not be permitted before sunrise or after sunset unless the construction general\n2 contractor demonstrates to the CQA certifying engineer that the construction general contractor has the\n3 capabilities to perform continuity testing under reduced light conditions. The CQA representative will\n4 perform the following tasks:\n5 * Observe the continuity testing.\n6 * Record location, date, test unit number, name of tester, and outcome of all testing\n7 * Document and inform the construction general contractor of any required repairs.\n8 The construction general contractor will be required to complete any required repairs, in accordance with\n9 the technical specifications. The CQA representative will perform the following tasks:\n10 * Observe the repair and re-testing of the repair.\n11 * Mark on the geomembrane that the repair has been made.\n12 * Document the results.\n13 The CQA representative will verify and document the procedures specified in the technical specifications\n14 where seams cannot be nondestructively tested. The location, date of visual observation, name of tester,\n15 and outcome of the test or observation will be recorded by the CQA representative and reported to the\n16 CQA certifying engineer.\n17 4.2.4.7 Destructive Seam Testing\n18 Concept\n19 Destructive seam tests will be performed at selected locations. The purpose of these tests is to evaluate\n20 seam strength and integrity. Seam strength testing will be done as the seaming work progresses, not at\n21 the completion of all field seaming.\n22 Location and Frequency\n23 The CQA representative will select locations where seam samples will be cut out for laboratory testing at\n24 the frequency specified in the technical specifications (see Section 02661). In general, destructive tests\n25 will be located in non-critical areas, such as seam run-out areas or near three-panel intersections or other\n26 areas that will require a patch anyway. In addition, because extrusion welding may be limited on a daily\n27 basis, extrusion destructive samples may be welded after passing a trial seam on scrap material not used\n28 for construction. However, when significant lengths (greater than 100 feet) of seams or caps are extrusion\n29 welded, a destructive test of the weld will be taken.\n30 Control charts will be used to track the performance of each welding machine and technician to allow for\n31 biased sampling, according to performance. An upper control limit (UCL) will be established to identify\n32 statistically the sources of test failures. Machines and technicians whose failure rates exceed the UCL\n33 will then be identified and destructively tested at twice the original frequency (one per 250 feet of seam\n34 length) to better monitor their performance. Once the failure rate drops back into compliance with the\n35 UCL, the original testing frequency will be reinstated. Machines and technicians whose failure notes are\n36 below the UCL will be identified to decrease the original frequency, as approved by the CQA certifying\n37 engineer.\n38 The UCL is established based on the failure rate for all destructive tests plus three standard deviations\n39 with a ceiling of 3.5 percent. The ceiling is the maximum failure rate determined to be acceptable, as\n40 agreed upon jointly by the construction general contractor and CQA certifying engineer. The initial UCL\n41 will be calculated once a single machine or technician fails two destructive tests and will typically be\n42 updated daily with the most recent destructive testing results. Destructive tests tracking a failed\n43 destructive will not be included in the calculation of the failure rates.\n44\n45\nAppendix 4B.46\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Additional destructive test locations may be required during seaming operations. The necessity for such\n2 additional sampling and testing will be determined by CQA representatives and will be implemented\n3 when there is cause to suspect the presence of excess crystallinity, contamination, offset welds, or any\n4 other reason to suspect potentially defective seams. The location selection of the additional testing will\n5 be based on the CQA representative's judgment and observation of a suspected problem.\n6 The construction general contractor will not be informed in advance of the locations where the seam\n7 samples will be taken.\n8 Sampling Procedure\n9 The construction general contractor will be required to cut samples, as directed by the CQA representative\n10 as the seaming progresses, in order to have laboratory test results before the geomembrane is covered by\n11 another material. The CQA representative will perform the following tasks:\n12 * Observe sample cutting.\n13 * Assign a number to each sample and mark it accordingly.\n14 * Record the sample number and location on the panel layout drawing.\n15 * Record the reason for taking the sample at this location (e.g., routine testing, suspicious feature of\n16 the geomembrane).\n17 All holes in the geomembrane resulting from destructive seam sampling will be covered by the\n18 construction general contractor immediately after sampling and will be repaired in accordance with the\n19 repair procedures described in the technical specifications. The continuity of the new seams in the\n20 repaired area will be nondestructively tested, according to the technical specifications.\n21 Size of Samples\n22 At a given sampling location, two types of samples will be taken by the construction general contractor.\n23 First, two specimens for field-testing will be taken. Each of these specimens will be 1 inch wide by 6 to\n24 12 inches long, with the seam centered parallel to the width. The distance between these two specimens\n25 will be approximately 42 inches. If both specimens pass the field test described in the technical\n26 specifications, a sample for laboratory testing will be taken.\n27 The sample for laboratory testing will be required to be taken between the two specimens for field-testing.\n28 The destructive sample will be 12 inches wide by 42 inches long, with the seam centered lengthwise. The\n29 sample will be cut into three parts and distributed as follows:\n30 * One portion to the construction general contractor, 12 inches long.\n31 * One portion to the IDF CM for archive storage, 12 inches long.\n32 * One portion to the CQA certifying engineer for CQA Laboratory testing, 18 inches long.\n33 Final determination of the sample sizes will be made at the preconstruction meeting.\n34 Field Testing\n35 The two 1-inch-wide specimens, as specified above, will be required to be tested in the field by the CQA\n36 representative by tensiometer for peel and shear and need not to fail in the seam. If any field test sample\n37 fails to pass, the procedures outlined in the technical specifications will be followed.\n38 The CQA representative will mark all samples and portions with their number, date, and time.\n39 Geosynthetic Construction Quality Assurance Laboratory Testing\n40 Laboratory destructive test samples will be packaged and shipped to the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory\n41 by the CQA representative in a manner that will not damage the test sample. The CQA representative\n42 will store the archive samples until the completion of the project.\n43 Testing will include \"Shear Strength\" and \"Peel Strength\" (ASTM D6392) with 1-inch-wide strip, tested\n44 at 2 inches per minute. The minimum acceptable values to be obtained in these tests are those indicated in\n45 the technical specifications. At least five specimens will be tested for each test method.\nAppendix 4B.47\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Specimens will be selected alternately by test from the samples (i.e., peel, shear, peel, and shear). At least\n2 four out of five of the specimens for each test must pass.\n3 The laboratory will provide test results verbally to the CQA certifying engineer in a timely manner after\n4 they receive and test the samples. The CQA certifying engineer will review laboratory test results as soon\n5 as they become available and will inform the CQA certifying engineer of the test results.\n6 Procedures for Destructive Test Failure\n7 The procedures specified in the technical specifications will be required whenever a sample fails a\n8 destructive test, whether that test is conducted by the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory or by field\n9 tensiometer. The CQA certifying engineer will verify and document that one of the options specified in\n10 the technical specifications is followed. The CQA representative will document all actions taken in\n11 conjunction with destructive test failures, including preparation of NCRs, as outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n12 4.2.5 Defects and Repairs\n13 4.2.5.1 Identification\n14 All seams and non-seam areas of the geomembrane will be inspected by the CQA representative for\n15 evidence of defects, holes, blisters, undispersed raw materials, and any sign of contamination by foreign\n16 matter. Because light reflected by the geomembrane helps to detect defects, the surface of the\n17 geomembrane will be required to be clean at the time of examination. The geomembrane surface will be\n18 required to be swept or washed by the construction general contractor if the amount of dust or mud\n19 inhibits examination.\n20 4.2.5.2 Evaluation\n21 Each suspect location both in seam and non-seam areas will be required to be either non-destructively\n22 tested using the methods described in the technical specifications, or repaired as appropriate as\n23 determined by the CQA certifying engineer. Each location that fails the non-destructive testing will be\n24 marked by the CQA representative and will be required to be repaired by the construction general\n25 contractor. Materials will not be placed over geomembrane locations that have been repaired until the\n26 CQA representative has approved the repair.\n27 4.2.5.3 Large Wrinkles\n28 When seaming of the geomembrane is completed (or when seaming of a large area of the geomembrane is\n29 completed) and prior to placing overlying materials, the CQA representative will visually inspect the\n30 geomembrane for wrinkles. Based on the requirements of the technical specifications, the CQA\n31 representative will indicate to the construction general contractor, which wrinkles, if any, are to be cut,\n32 overlapped, and seamed to remove the wrinkle. The seam thus produced will be tested like any other\n33 seam.\n34 4.2.5.4 Repair Procedures\n35 Any portion of the geomembrane either exhibiting a flaw or failing a destructive or nondestructive test\n36 will be repaired by the construction general contractor in accordance with the applicable method specified\n37 in the technical specifications. An NCR will be prepared to document all flaws and failed tests, as\n38 outlined in Section 8.1.4. Each repair will be located and logged by the CQA representative.\n39 4.2.5.5 Testing of Repairs\n40 Each repair will be non-destructively tested, using the methods described in the technical specifications as\n41 appropriate. Repairs that pass the non-destructive test will be considered adequate. Large caps may be of\n42 sufficient extent to require destructive testing, at the discretion of the CQA certifying engineer. Failed\n43 tests will require the repair to be redone and re-tested until passing test results are obtained. The CQA\n44 representative will observe the non-destructive testing of repairs and will document the date of the repair\n45 and test outcome.\nAppendix 4B.48\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 4.2.6 Appurtenances\n2 The CQA representative will verify and document the following:\n3 * Installation of the geomembrane around, and connection of geomembrane to, appurtenances have\n4 been made according to the technical specifications or manufacturer's recommendations.\n5 * Extreme care is taken while seaming around appurtenances, since neither non-destructive nor\n6 destructive testing may be feasible in these areas.\n7 * The geomembrane has not been visibly damaged while being connected to appurtenances.\n8 The CQA representative will inform the CQA certifying engineer if the above conditions are not fulfilled.\n9 4.3 Geomembrane Panel Layout Survey\n10 A survey will be performed by or under the direction of a professional land surveyor registered in the\n11 State of Washington. The surveyor will independently survey the elevations and location of each panel\n12 intersection and destructive sample. The results of the survey conducted by the surveyor will be compiled\n13 in a report signed by the surveyor and the CQA certifying engineer.\n14 The surveyor will be required to survey each geomembrane panel intersection and destructive sample\n15 location for the IDF landfill, in accordance with the requirements of this CQA Plan. A record drawing\n16 will be submitted to the CQA certifying engineer by the surveyor. The survey will include enough\n17 information to confirm that the geomembrane layout is in accordance with the panel layout and include,\n18 but not be limited to, the following information:\n19 Geomembrane panel intersections:\n20 * Destructive sample location and identification\n21 * Edge of geomembrane liner\n22 * Panel identification numbers\n23 Each geomembrane layer will be surveyed including, but not be limited to:\n24 * Secondary leak detection system geomembrane\n25 * Secondary geomembrane\n26 * Primary geomembrane\n27 4.4 Layer Completion Certification\n28 The construction general contractor will be required to notify the CQA representative when an area of\n29 geomembrane is complete, prior to constructing the overlying layer. The construction general contractor\n30 may place overlying layer after acceptance of geomembrane layer by the CQA Certifying Engineer. The\n31 CQA certifying engineer will provide a certificate of layer completion to the construction general\n32 contractor and the IDF project engineer, certifying that all CQA tests are complete and all defects have\n33 been repaired and tested.\n34\nAppendix 4B.49\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 SECTION 5 GEOTEXTILE CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE\n2 5.1 Geotextile Material And Installation\n3 5.1.1 Labeling\n4 The CQA representative will verify and document that the geotextile manufacturer has labeled all rolls of\n5 geotextile with the information specified in the technical specifications. The CQA representative will\n6 examine rolls upon delivery, and any deviation from the requirements will be reported to the CQA\n7 certifying engineer. Geotextile rolls that are not labeled or that have illegible labels will be removed and\n8 disposed by the construction general contractor.\n9 5.1.2 Transportation and Handling\n10 The CQA representative will observe rolls of geotextile upon delivery at the site, and any deviation from\n11 the transportation and handling requirements specified in the technical specifications will be reported to\n12 the CQA certifying engineer. Any damaged rolls will be rejected by the CQA certifying engineer and\n13 required to be repaired or replaced by the construction general contractor.\n14 5.1.3 Storage\n15 The CQA representative will verify and document that storage of the geotextile is in accordance with the\n16 technical specifications.\n17 5.1.4 Inventory\n18 All geotextile materials that arrive onsite will be inventoried. The inventory will include the specific roll\n19 numbers delivered with each shipment. The inventory will be compared to the QC testing information,\n20 supplied by the manufacturer to ensure that the material tested is the same material that was delivered to\n21 the site. Material for which QC testing data has been supplied will be sampled for conformance testing.\n22 Conformance samples may be obtained by the CQA representative at the manufacturing plant or taken\n23 upon delivery of the material to the site by a CQA representative.\n24 As shipments arrive at the site, a CQA representative will monitor the unloading operations and will\n25 inventory the material. Rolls selected for conformance testing will be set aside for sampling as soon as\n26 possible.\n27 The CQA representative will record the following information, at a minimum, for each roll:\n28 * Manufacturer-Indicate the manufacturer of the material that is being inventoried, that may not\n29 be the same as the installer.\n30 * Date of Inventory-Date that the material was inventoried.\n31 * Date of Delivery-Enter date when the truck arrived onsite, if known.\n32 * Truck Type-Indicate type of truck used for shipping geosynthetics (covered or uncovered\n33 flatbed, box trailer).\n34 * Bill-of-Lading Number-If the bill-of-lading is available, indicate number and date (also attach\n35 copy to inventory form).\n36 * CQA Representative-Indicate name of CQA representative performing inventory.\n37 * Unloading Equipment-Indicate the type and model number of the equipment unloading the\n38 geosynthetic material; also note any special attachments that are used to unload the material\n39 (stinger, straps, forks).\n40 * Weather Conditions-Describe the weather conditions, including temperature, wind, cloud cover,\n41 and precipitation during unloading and conformance sampling operation.\n42 * Material Type-Indicate type of geosynthetic material.\n43 * Roll Number-Indicate each roll number that is indicated on the roll.\n44 * Lot Number-Lot number.\nAppendix 4B.50\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Roll (Lx W)-Indicate the roll width as indicated on the roll label; if two materials are bonded\n2 together (i.e., geonet/geotextile), obtain measurements for both materials.\n3 * Area (square feet)-Indicate the total square footage of the roll.\n4 * Damage Remarks-Document any visible damage to the roll; if possible, indicate if damage was\n5 present prior to unloading or if it occurred during unloading.\n6 Items that are restricted from further use until the inspections have been completed will be clearly\n7 delineated by the CQA representative. Accepted materials will be kept separate or clearly delineated\n8 from inventoried and approved items to the extent possible. The CQA representative will coordinate with\n9 the construction general contractor during material delivery so that the material is not moved more than\n10 necessary after it is unloaded and damage due to handling is minimized.\n11 The CQA representative will perform the inventory immediately after the material arrives onsite to avoid\n12 delaying construction. The CQA representative will be responsible for verifying that only accepted\n13 material is installed at the IDF landfill and that all inventories and inspections are documented and\n14 maintained.\n15 5.1.5 Conformance Testing\n16 Either at the manufacturer's factory or upon delivery of the geotextile rolls, the CQA representative will\n17 ensure that samples are removed and forwarded to the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory for testing to\n18 verify and document conformance with the requirements of the technical specifications. Conformance\n19 samples will be taken across the entire width of the roll and will not include the first 3 feet along the edge\n20 of the roll. Unless otherwise specified, samples will be 3 feet (minimum) long by the roll width. The\n21 CQA representative will mark the machine direction on the samples with an arrow.\n22 Samples will be taken at a rate of one per material lot or one per 50,000 square foot, whichever is greater.\n23 These samples will be tested for the following:\n24 * Permittivity (ASTM D4491, Type 1 only).\n25 * Grab strength (ASTM D4632).\n26 * Tear strength (ASTM D4533).\n27 * Puncture strength (ASTM D4833).\n28 The CQA representative will examine all results of laboratory conformance testing and report any non-\n29 conformance to the CQA certifying engineer as soon as results become available. The following\n30 procedure will apply whenever a sample fails a conformance test that is conducted by the Geosynthetics\n31 CQA Laboratory:\n32 * The construction general contractor will replace the roll (or rolls) of geotextile not in\n33 conformance with the specifications with a roll, that meets the requirements of the technical\n34 specifications.\n35 * The CQA representative will ensure that conformance samples are removed for testing by the\n36 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory from the closest numerical roll on both sides of the roll from\n37 which the failing sample was obtained. These two samples must pass the above conformance\n38 tests. If either of these samples fails to meet the requirements, samples will be collected from the\n39 five numerically closest untested rolls on both sides of the failed sample and tested by the\n40 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory. These ten samples must pass the above conformance tests. If\n41 any of these samples fail, a sample from every roll of geotextile onsite and a sample from every\n42 roll that is subsequently delivered from the same manufacturer must be conformance tested by the\n43 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory, until the manufacturer has thoroughly demonstrated compliance\n44 with the above requirements to the sole satisfaction of the CQA certifying engineer. The costs of\n45 all such tests are to be borne by the construction general contractor.\nAppendix 4B.51\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The CQA representative will document actions taken in conjunction with conformance test failures and\n2 report all actions taken to the CQA certifying engineer. Failed tests will be documented using NCR\n3 procedures, outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n4 5.1.6 Deployment\n5 The construction general contractor will be required to handle all geotextile material in such a manner as\n6 to ensure that it is not damaged in any way.\n7 It will be the CQA representative's responsibility to indicate to the CQA certifying engineer any change\n8 in the underlying layer that may, in accordance with the technical specifications, require repair work. If\n9 the CQA certifying engineer requires that repair work be done, it will be the responsibility of the\n10 construction general contractor to repair the underlying layer.\n11 The CQA representative will verify and document compliance with the following:\n12 * Just prior to geotextile placement, the layer that underlies the geotextile, if it is a geosynthetic, is\n13 clean and free of excessive amounts of dust, dirt, stones, rocks, or other obstructions that could\n14 potentially damage the liner system.\n15 * In the presence of excessive wind, the geotextile is weighted with sandbags (or equivalent weight\n16 approved by the CQA representative).\n17 * Geotextile is kept under tension to minimize the presence of wrinkles in the geotextile. If\n18 necessary, the geotextile is positioned by hand after being unrolled to minimize wrinkles.\n19 * Geotextile is cut using a geotextile cutter approved by the geotextile manufacturer and the CQA\n20 representative. If in place, special care is taken to protect other materials (such as underlying\n21 geosynthetics) from damage that could be caused by the cutting of the geotextiles.\n22 * The construction general contractor takes any necessary precautions to prevent damage to the\n23 underlying layers during placement of the geotextile.\n24 * During placement of geotextile, care is taken not to entrap stones, excessive dust, or moisture that\n25 could damage the underlying layers, generate clogging of drains or filters, or hamper subsequent\n26 seaming.\n27 * Geotextile is not left exposed for an excess of 14 days after placement, to prevent damage from\n28 exposure to ultraviolet radiation (sunlight). If the geotextile is exposed for more than 14 days, a\n29 temporary cover may be deployed for the duration of the delay or samples may be submitted to an\n30 independent testing laboratory to ensure that detrimental levels of UV degradation have not\n31 occurred. Test results shall be submitted to CQA certifying engineer for review and approval.\n32 Detrimental level of UV degradation is defined in the technical specifications (see Section\n33 02371).\n34 The CQA representative will document any non-compliance with the above requirements and report them\n35 to the CQA certifying engineer.\n36 5.1.7 Seams and Overlaps\n37 The CQA representative will verify and document that all geotextile seams are oriented and overlapped,\n38 in accordance with the technical specifications. The construction general contractor will be required to\n39 pay close attention at seams to ensure that no protective soil layer material could be inadvertently placed\n40 beneath the geotextile.\n41 5.1.8 Repair\n42 The CQA representative will verify and document that any holes or tears in the geotextile are repaired, in\n43 accordance with the requirements of the technical specifications. The CQA representative will document\n44 any noncompliance with the above requirements and report it to the CQA certifying engineer.\nAppendix 4B.52\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI SECTION 6 COMPOSITE DRAINAGE NET CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE\n2 6.1 Composite Drainage Net Material and Installation\n3 6.1.1 Labeling\n4 The CQA representative will verify and document that the composite drainage net manufacturer has\n5 labeled all rolls of composite drainage net as specified in the technical specifications. The CQA\n6 representative will examine rolls upon delivery, and any deviation from the above requirements will be\n7 reported to the CQA certifying engineer prior to installation of the composite drainage net.\n8 6.1.2 Transportation and Handling\n9 The CQA representative will observe rolls of composite drainage net upon delivery at the site, and any\n10 deviation from the requirements of the technical specifications will be reported to the CQA certifying\n11 engineer. Any damaged rolls will be rejected by the CQA representative and be required to be repaired or\n12 replaced by the construction general contractor.\n13 6.1.3 Storage\n14 The CQA representative will verify and document that the storage of the composite drainage net is in\n15 accordance with the technical specifications.\n16 6.1.4 Inventory\n17 All CDN that arrive onsite will be inventoried. The inventory will record the specific roll numbers\n18 delivered with each shipment. The inventory will be compared to the QC testing information supplied by\n19 the manufacturer, to ensure that the material tested is the same material that was delivered to the site.\n20 Material for which QC testing data has been supplied will be sampled for conformance testing.\n21 Conformance samples may be obtained by the CQA representative at the manufacturing plant or taken\n22 upon delivery of the material to the site by a CQA representative.\n23 As shipments arrive at the site, a CQA representative will monitor the unloading operations and will\n24 inventory the material. Rolls selected for conformance testing will be set aside for sampling as soon as\n25 possible.\n26 The CQA representative will record the following information, at a minimum, for each roll:\n27 * Manufacturer-Indicate the manufacturer of the material that is being inventoried that may not\n28 be the same as the installer.\n29 * Date of Inventory-Date that the material was inventoried.\n30 * Date of Delivery-Enter date when the truck arrived onsite, if known.\n31 * Truck Type-Indicate type of truck used for shipping geosynthetics (covered or uncovered\n32 flatbed, box trailer).\n33 * Bill-of-Lading Number-If the bill-of-lading is available, indicate number and date (also attach\n34 copy to inventory form).\n35 * CQA Representative-Indicate name of CQA representative performing inventory.\n36 * Unloading Equipment-Indicate the type and model number of the equipment unloading the\n37 geosynthetic material; also note any special attachments that are used to unload the material\n38 (stinger, straps, forks).\n39 * Weather Conditions-Describe the weather conditions, including temperature, wind, cloud cover,\n40 and precipitation during unloading and conformance sampling operation.\n41 * Material Type-Indicate type of geosynthetic material (high-density polyethylene, geotextile, or\n42 geonet).\n43 * Roll Number-Indicate each roll number that is written on the roll.\n44 * Lot Number-Lot number as indicated.\nAppendix 4B.53\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Roll (L x W)-Indicate the roll width as indicated on the roll label; if two materials are bonded\n2 together (i.e., geonet/geotextile), obtain measurements for both materials.\n3 * Area (square feet)-Indicate the total square footage of the roll.\n4 * Damage Remarks-Document any visible damage to the roll; if possible, indicate if damage was\n5 present prior to unloading or if it occurred during unloading.\n6 Items that are restricted from further use until the inspections have been completed will be clearly\n7 delineated by the CQA representative. Accepted materials will be kept separate or clearly delineated\n8 from inventoried and approved items to the extent possible. The CQA representative will coordinate with\n9 the construction general contractor during material delivery so that the material is not moved more than\n10 necessary after it is unloaded and damage due to handling is minimized.\n11 The CQA representative will perform the inventory immediately after the material arrives onsite to avoid\n12 delaying construction. The CQA representative will be responsible for verifying that only accepted\n13 material is installed at the IDF landfill and that all inventories and inspections are documented and\n14 maintained.\n15 6.1.5 Conformance Testing\n16 Either at the manufacturer's plant or upon delivery of the composite drainage net rolls, the CQA\n17 representative will ensure that samples are removed and forwarded to the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory\n18 for testing, to verify and document conformance with the requirements of the technical specifications.\n19 Conformance samples will be taken across the entire width of the roll and will not include the first 3 feet.\n20 Unless otherwise specified, samples will be 3 feet long (minimum) by the roll width. The CQA\n21 representative will mark the machine direction on the samples with an arrow.\n22 Samples will be taken at a rate of one per lot or one per 50,000 square feet, except as noted otherwise\n23 below, whichever is greater. The geonets will be tested for the following:\n24 * Polymer specific gravity (ASTM D1505).\n25 * Thickness (ASTM D5199).\n26 * Nominal transmissivity (ASTM D4716 -one per production lot).\n27 The composite drainage nets will be tested for the following:\n28 * Adhesion (GRI-GC7 or ASTM D413).\n29 * Transmissivity (ASTM D4716 -one per production lot).\n30 The CQA representative will examine all results from laboratory conformance testing and will report any\n31 non-conformance to the CQA certifying engineer as soon as the results become available.\n32 The following procedure will apply whenever a sample fails a conformance test that is conducted by the\n33 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory:\n34 * The construction general contractor will be required to replace the roll (or rolls) of composite\n35 drainage net not in conformance with the specifications with a roll that meets the requirements of\n36 the technical specifications.\n37 * The CQA representative will ensure that conformance samples are removed for testing by the\n38 Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory from the closest numerical roll on both sides of the failed roll.\n39 These two samples must pass the above conformance tests. If either of these samples fails,\n40 samples will be collected from the five numerically closest untested rolls on both sides of the\n41 failed sample and tested by the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory. These ten samples must pass the\n42 above conformance tests.\n43\nAppendix 4B.54\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI If any of these samples fail, a sample from every roll of composite drainage net onsite and a\n2 sample from every roll that is subsequently delivered from the same manufacturer must be\n3 conformance tested by the Geosynthetics CQA Laboratory, until the manufacturer has thoroughly\n4 demonstrated compliance with the above requirements to the sole satisfaction of the CQA\n5 certifying engineer. The cost of such tests is to be borne by the construction general contractor.\n6 The CQA representative will document actions taken in conjunction with conformance test failures and\n7 report all actions to the CQA certifying engineer. Failed tests will be documented using NCR procedures,\n8 outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n9 6.1.6 Deployment\n10 The construction general contractor will be required to handle all composite drainage net in such a\n11 manner as to ensure that it is not damaged.\n12 The construction general contractor (responsible for composite drainage net installation) will be required\n13 to certify in writing that the surface on which the composite drainage net will be installed is complete and\n14 acceptable. A certificate of partial completion will be given by the construction general contractor to the\n15 CQA representative, who will then verify to the CQA certifying engineer that the deployment surface is\n16 complete, prior to commencement of composite drainage net installation.\n17 After the surface on which the composite drainage net is to be installed has been accepted by the\n18 construction general contractor, the CQA representative will have responsibility to indicate to the CQA\n19 certifying engineer any change in the underlying layer that may, in accordance with the technical\n20 specifications, require repair work. If the CQA certifying engineer requires that repair work be done, it\n21 will be the responsibility of the construction general contractor to repair the underlying layer.\n22 The CQA representative will verify and document compliance with the following:\n23 * Just prior to composite drainage net placement, the layer that will underlie the composite drainage\n24 net is clean and free of excessive amounts of dust, dirt, stones, rocks, or other obstructions that\n25 could potentially damage the underlying layers or clog the drainage system.\n26 * In the presence of excessive wind, the composite drainage net is weighted with sandbags (or\n27 equivalent weight approved by the CQA certifying engineer).\n28 * Composite drainage net is kept under tension to minimize the presence of wrinkles in the\n29 composite drainage net. If necessary, the composite drainage net is positioned by hand after\n30 being unrolled, to minimize wrinkles.\n31 * Composite drainage net is cut using a composite drainage net cutter, approved by the composite\n32 drainage net manufacturer and the CQA representative. If in place, special care is taken to protect\n33 other materials from damage that could be caused by the cutting of the composite drainage net.\n34 * The construction general contractor takes all necessary precautions to prevent damage to the\n35 underlying layers during placement of the composite drainage net.\n36 0 Composite drainage net is not welded to geomembranes.\n37 * During placement of clean composite drainage net, care is taken not to entrap stones, excessive\n38 dust, or moisture that could damage the underlying geomembrane, generate clogging of drains or\n39 filters, or hamper subsequent seaming.\n40 * A visual examination of the composite drainage net is carried out over the entire surface, after\n41 installation, to ensure that no potentially harmful foreign objects, such as needles, are present.\n42 * Composite drainage net is not left exposed for an excess of 14 days after placement, to prevent\n43 damage from exposure to ultraviolet radiation (sunlight).\n44 The CQA representative will document any noncompliance with the above requirements and report it to\n45 the CQA certifying engineer.\nAppendix 4B.55\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.1.7 Seams and Overlaps\n2 The components of the composite drainage net (e.g., geotextile-geonet-geotextile) are not bonded together\n3 at the ends and edges of the rolls. The CQA representative will document that the composite drainage net\n4 is overlapped and secured in accordance with the technical specifications.\n5 6.1.8 Repair\n6 The CQA representative will verify that any holes or tears in the composite drainage net are repaired, in\n7 accordance with the technical specifications. The CQA representative will observe any repair, document\n8 any noncompliance with the above requirements, and report the noncompliance to the CQA certifying\n9 engineer. Repair areas will be documented using NCR procedures, outlined in Section 8.1.4.\n10\nAppendix 4B.56\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI SECTION 7 POLYETHYLENE PIPE AND FITTINGS CONSTRUCTION QUALITY\n2 ASSURANCE\n3 7.1 Pipe and Fittings\n4 The CQA representative will monitor the placement of the LCRS, LDS, and SLDS pipe, located on the\n5 IDF landfill floor and on the landfill slopes.\n6 7.1.1 Labeling\n7 The CQA representative will verify that the pipe is labeled with the information specified in the technical\n8 specifications. Any deviations from the labeling requirements will be reported to the CQA certifying\n9 engineer prior to pipe installation.\n10 7.1.2 Transportation and Handling\n11 The CQA representative will verify and document that the pipe and fittings are handled in accordance\n12 with the technical specifications. The CQA representative will visually inspect the pipe upon delivery at\n13 the site, and any deviations from the requirements of the technical specifications will be reported to the\n14 CQA certifying engineer.\n15 7.1.3 Storage\n16 The CQA representative will verify and document that storage of the pipe and fittings is in accordance\n17 with the technical specifications.\n18 7.1.4 Inventory\n19 The CQA representative will inventory the polyethylene piping and fitting, delivered to the site that will\n20 be installed at the bottom and on the slopes of the landfill. The CQA representative will perform the\n21 following tasks:\n22 * Verify the material for conformance with the technical specifications and construction drawings.\n23 * Verify slot dimensions for conformance with the technical specifications.\n24 * Check the material for damage, mishandling, and adverse exposure.\n25 Items that are restricted from further use until the inspections have been completed will be clearly\n26 delineated by the CQA representative. Accepted materials will be kept separate from inventoried and\n27 approved items, to the extent possible. The CQA representative will be responsible for coordinating with\n28 the construction general contractor during material delivery, to limit the material being moved more than\n29 necessary after it is unloaded and thereby minimizing damage due to handling.\n30 The CQA representative will perform the inventory immediately after the material arrives onsite to avoid\n31 delaying construction. The CQA representative will be responsible for verifying that only accepted\n32 material is installed at the IDF landfill, and that all inventories and inspections are documented and\n33 maintained.\n34 7.1.5 Conformance Testing\n35 No conformance testing will be conducted on the materials delivered to the site.\n36 7.1.6 Handling and Laying\n37 The CQA representative will verify and document that the pipe is installed at the specified locations,\n38 grades, and angles, and that placement of backfill around and over the pipe is conducted in accordance\n39 with the requirements of the technical specifications and in a manner intended to prevent damage to the\n40 pipe.\n41 The pipe and fittings will be carefully examined before installation by the CQA representative. The CQA\n42 representative will verify and document that cracks, damage, or defects are not present in the pipe and\n43 fittings in excess of that allowed by the technical specifications.\nAppendix 4B.57\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The CQA representative will also note the condition of the interior of pipes and fittings. Foreign material\n2 will be removed from the pipe interior before it is moved into final position. No pipe will be permitted to\n3 be placed until the CQA representative has observed the condition of the pipe. The CQA representative\n4 will document any deviation from the requirements and report it to the CQA certifying engineer.\n5 7.1.7 Joints and Connections\n6 Lengths of pipe will be required to be assembled into suitable installation lengths by the butt-fusion\n7 process. Butt-fusion refers to the butt joining of the pipe by softening the aligned faces of the pipe ends\n8 in a suitable apparatus and pressing them together under controlled pressure. The CQA representatives\n9 will spot-monitor butt-fusion welding operations to ensure that the construction general contractor\n10 follows the technical specifications for both slotted and solid pipes. The CQA representative will verify\n11 that internal weld beads have been removed from the horizontal and side slope sections of the LCRS,\n12 LDS, and SLDS riser pipes. The CQA representative will document any noncompliance with the\n13 requirements and report it to the CQA certifying engineer.\n14 7.1.8 Surveying\n15 A survey will be performed by or under the direction of a professional land surveyor registered in the\n16 State of Washington. The surveyor will independently survey the final elevation and alignment of the top\n17 of the pipe and fittings. Surveys will be performed on all pipe locations within the footprint of the landfill\n18 to confirm that the alignment and elevations in the field agree with those shown in the construction\n19 drawings. The results of the survey will be compiled in a report signed by the surveyor and the CQA\n20 certifying engineer.\n21 The surveyor will be required to survey each pipe location within the IDF landfill, in accordance with the\n22 requirements of this CQA Plan. A record drawing will be submitted to the CQA certifying engineer by\n23 the surveyor before placement of the next liner system layer. The surveys will be conducted every 50 feet\n24 along the pipe alignment and appurtenances. The survey will include enough information to confirm that\n25 the following features of the landfill piping are constructed in accordance with the construction drawings:\n26 * Beginning and end top of pipe elevations\n27 * Connection location\n28 * Grade breaks\n29 * Riser pipes\n30 0 Sump extensions\n31 The piping that will be surveyed will include, but not be limited to, the following:\n32 * SLDS piping\n33 * LDS piping\n34 * LCRS piping\n35 The CQA certifying engineer will approve the survey results for each layer before the subsequent\n36 component of the lining system is constructed.\n37\nAppendix 4B.58\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 SECTION 8 CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ASSURANCE DOCUMENTATION AND\n2 CERTIFICATION\n3 8.1 Documentation and Certification\n4 A major function of CQA is to properly and adequately document and certify the work. This section\n5 describes the minimum required documentation. The CQA certifying engineer may recommend to the\n6 IDF CM additional documentation for performing CQA tasks that are for certification. In addition, the\n7 CQA certifying engineer will prepare forms, field data sheets, sample labeling schemes, and chain-of-\n8 custody procedures and submit them to the IDF CM and IDF PM for approval, prior to construction.\n9 8.1.1 Daily Reports\n10 Daily reports will be completed by the CQA representatives when they are onsite. All CQA personnel\n11 will be assigned field books by the CQA certifying engineer that will be labeled with a unique number.\n12 The CQA representatives, including the CQA certifying engineer, will record all field observations and\n13 the results of field tests in their assigned field book. When not in use, all field books will be left in the\n14 field records file. After each book is filled (or at the end of the project), the field book will be returned to\n15 the CQA certifying engineer and routed to the project files.\n16 Each page of the field book will be numbered, dated, and initialed by CQA personnel. At the start of a\n17 new work shift, CQA personnel will list the following information at the top of the page:\n18 * Job name\n19 * Job number\n20 * Date\n21 * Name\n22 * Weather conditions\n23 * Page number (if pages are not pre-numbered)\n24 The remaining individual entries will be prefaced by an indication of the time at which they occurred. If\n25 the results of test data are being recorded on separate sheets, it will be noted in the field book. Entries in\n26 the field book will include, but not be limited to, the following information:\n27 * Reports on any meetings held and their results.\n28 * Equipment and personnel being used in each location, including construction general contractors.\n29 * Descriptions of areas being observed and documented.\n30 * Descriptions of materials delivered to the site, including any quality verification (vendor\n31 certification) documentation.\n32 * Descriptions of materials incorporated into construction.\n33 * Calibrations, or recalibrations, of test equipment, including actions taken as a result of\n34 recalibration.\n35 * Decisions made regarding use of material and/or corrective actions to be taken in instances of\n36 substandard quality.\n37 * Unique identifying sheet numbers of inspection data sheets and/or problem reporting and\n38 corrective measures reports used to substantiate the decisions described in the preceding item\n39 At the end of each day, the field CQA monitor will summarize the day's activities on a daily field\n40 monitoring report form. The field report will include a brief summary of the day's activities and highlight\n41 any unresolved issues that must be addressed by the CQA certifying engineer or by CQA representatives\n42 the following day.\n43 The daily field monitoring report will be filled out in triplicate. The CQA monitor will attach three copies\n44 of the field book notes for that day. The three copies will be distributed as follows:\nAppendix 4B.59\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Original will be filed in field office.\n2 * One copy will be transmitted to the CQA certifying engineer.\n3 * One copy will be transmitted to the IDF CM.\n4 The CQA certifying engineer will review and initial each summary field report before distributing to the\n5 project quality records and the IDF CM.\n6 8.1.2 Inspection Data Sheets\n7 All observed field and laboratory test data will be recorded on an inspection data sheet. At a minimum,\n8 each inspection data sheet will include the following information:\n9 * Unique identifying sheet number for cross-referencing and document control.\n10 * Description of the inspection activity.\n11 * If appropriate, location of inspection activity or location from which the sample was obtained.\n12 * Type of inspection activity and/or procedure used (reference to standard method when\n13 appropriate).\n14 * Any recorded observation or test data, with all necessary calculations.\n15 * Results of the inspection activity and comparison with specification requirements.\n16 * Identification of any personnel involved in the inspection activity.\n17 * Signature of the individual(s) performing the CQA representative activity and concurrence by the\n18 CQA certifying engineer.\n19 * Identification of deficiencies and any required reinspections.\n20 Forms used for the data sheets will be prepared and submitted to the IDF CM and IDF PM in accordance\n21 with this section. The data sheets will include, but are not limited to, the forms listed below:\n22 * Sample log\n23 * Compaction test result log\n24 * Soil test result summary form\n25 * Equipment calibration log\n26 8.1.3 Record Drawing Maintenance\n27 The construction general contractor will maintain a complete set of construction drawings labeled\n28 \"Red-Line\" as-built drawings. At the completion of the project, the as-built drawings pertaining to the\n29 work certified under this CQA Plan will be produced in electronic format and submitted to the CQA\n30 certifying engineer. The CQA certifying engineer will review the completed set of as-built drawings and\n31 certify the drawing set as the record drawings for the IDF.\n32 8.1.4 Non-Conformance Reporting\n33 Deficiencies/defects identified by in-process testing may be reworked in accordance with the technical\n34 specifications or CQA Plan to correct the deficiency without initiating the NCR process (i.e., failed\n35 compaction test or failed geomembrane destructive test), and in-process tests will be tracked by the CQA\n36 representative until it is corrected. A non-conformance is considered to be a deficiency in characteristics,\n37 documentation, or procedures that renders the quality of an item or activity unacceptable or indeterminate.\n38 All deficiencies, defects, damage, or test failures that are not corrected by in-process rework will be\n39 considered a non-conformance and will be documented on a Non-Conformance Report (NCR) form. The\n40 non-conformance will be referred to the IDF CM, for disposition and initiation of corrective action\n41 processes.\n42 All NCR situations will be brought to the attention of the IDF CM for concurrence, prior to initiating the\n43 NCR.\nAppendix 4B.60\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Upon issuance of the non-conformance report, the IDF CM will notify the IDF design engineer, IDF\n2 quality engineer, and IDF PM that the report has issued. Other individuals, as directed by the IDF PM,\n3 will participate in NCR disposition, resolution, and corrective action processes as needed. All\n4 documentation relating to NCR situations will be retained in the project quality records.\n5 8.1.5 Resolution of Contract Document Questions and Clarifications\n6 Request for Information (RFI) forms will be provided to the CQA certifying engineer for the purpose of\n7 submitting written requests to the IDF CM, for assistance in understanding the design intent of the\n8 contract documents. The CM will determine whether the IDF design engineer's technical support staff\n9 will address the RF.\n10 RFIs initiated by the construction general contractor will be addressed by the IDF project engineer and\n11 CM, not by the CQA certifying engineer, and are not in the scope of the CQA Plan.\n12 Any RFIs that result in contract document changes will be incorporated by the IDF CM and PM,\n13 following the procedures outlined in Section 8.1.6.\n14 8.1.6 Construction Change Order and Contract Document Changes\n15 Requests for changes to the technical specifications or construction drawings will be referred to the IDF\n16 CM and initiated as a change order. All change orders and resulting design changes will be approved by\n17 the appropriate project team member prior to implementation, as outlined in procedure HNF-IP-0842,\n18 Volume 4., Section 4.29 (Engineering Document Change Control Requirements). Requests for\n19 modifications to the CQA Plan will also be made by completing a change order to the IDF CM and\n20 procurement agent, with copies to the IDF quality engineer and IDF project engineer.\n21 If, during the course of construction, questions arise regarding interpretation of the plans and/or\n22 specifications, the IDF CM will be contacted by the CQA certifying engineer. Any clarification of the\n23 construction drawings will be documented by a change order, if necessary, or by telephone conversation\n24 records or meeting minutes, and routed to the IDF design engineer, IDF CM, and IDF PM. The change\n25 order will also be routed to the project files.\n26 8.1.7 Progress Reports\n27 The CQA certifying engineer will prepare a summary progress report each week, or at time intervals\n28 established at the pre-construction meeting. At a minimum, this report will include the following\n29 information:\n30 * A unique identifying sheet number for cross-referencing and document control.\n31 * The date, project name, location, and other information.\n32 * A summary of work activities accomplished during the progress reporting period.\n33 * Identification of areas or items inspected and/or tested during the reporting period that are\n34 addressed by the report.\n35 * A summary of the quality characteristics being evaluated, with appropriate cross-references to\n36 technical specifications and/or construction drawings.\n37 * References to the technical specifications or construction drawings defining the acceptance\n38 criteria for each inspected characteristic.\n39 * A summary of inspection and test results, failures, and re-tests.\n40 * A summary of construction situations, deficiencies, and/or defects occurring during the progress\n41 reporting period.\n42 * A summary of other problem resolutions and dispositions.\n43 * The signature of the CQA certifying engineer.\nAppendix 4B.61\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The progress report will be submitted to the IDF PM no more than two days after the last reporting day in\n2 the progress report. Copies will also be submitted to the IDF PM, IDF quality engineer, and construction\n3 general contractor.\n4 8.1.8 Final Documentation and Certification\n5 All daily inspection summary reports, inspection sheets, problem identification and corrective measures\n6 reports, acceptance reports, change orders, NCRs, photographic records, progress reports, construction\n7 drawings, construction drawing revisions, and other pertinent documentation will be retained as\n8 permanent project quality records. At the completion of the project, a final CQA report that incorporates\n9 all such information, along with as-built drawings, will be prepared by the CQA certifying engineer and\n10 submitted to the IDF PM. The CQA certifying engineer will prepare an interim report for construction\n11 and testing of the test pads. A final CQA report and certification letter will be completed at the end of the\n12 construction that will fulfill the CQA certification requirements specified in WAC 173-303-335(4).\n13 The CQA certifying engineer will coordinate the completion of the as-built record drawings that will be\n14 generated by a land surveyor licensed in the State of Washington. The as-built records will include scale\n15 drawings depicting depths, plan dimensions, elevations, fill thicknesses, and geosynthetic panel layouts.\n16 The report will include documentation of each construction component monitored by CQA personnel and\n17 will be signed, stamped, and certified by the CQA certifying engineer.\n18 8.1.9 Storage of Records\n19 During the construction of the IDF, the CQA certifying engineer will be responsible for all CQA\n20 documents. This includes the CQA certifying engineer's copy of the design criteria, plans, procedures,\n21 and specifications; the CQA Plan; and the originals of all the data sheets and reports. The field records\n22 will be kept in lockable, metal cabinets or on metal shelving within a facility, protected by a fire alarm\n23 and/or a communication system that provides fire department response and/or fire suppression systems;\n24 or, in an Underwriters Laboratory-listed, one-hour fire-rated cabinet. At the completion of the project, all\n25 completed documents will be routed to the project quality records.\n26 8.1.10 Storage of Archive Construction Material Samples\n27 The CQA certifying engineer will be responsible for storing construction material samples collected\n28 during the duration of the project.\n29 The CQA certifying engineer will coordinate with the IDF PM and IDF CM on which samples will be\n30 archived at the completion of the project. All samples will be kept in small containers (i.e., 5-gallon\n31 plastic buckets). Each container will be labeled with the following information:\n32 * Project name\n33 * Date\n34 0 Sample I.D.\n35 0 Material type\n36 * Point of contact\n37 Control and protection of samples will be accomplished through the use of an index listing of samples.\n38 This index will identify each sample gathered and include the same information required for the sample\n39 containers. It will also identify where the sample is stored and person responsible for the sample storage,\n40 thus providing a documented record of each sample and methodology for verifying that all samples are\n41 available in storage and that no samples have been misplaced.\n42 All samples will be stored neatly in a cool, dry location, approved by the CQA certifying engineer. The\n43 CQA certifying engineer will coordinate with the IDF PM and IDF CM to determine which sample will\n44 be archived at the project completion.\n45\nAppendix 4B.62\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI SECTION 9 REFERENCES\n2 40 CFR 264.19.

FACILITY RESPONSE ACTION PLAN\n2 4C.1. Leakage Response Action Plan\n3 WAC 173-303-665(9) regulations require the owner of the operator of a landfill unit to have an approved\n4 Response Action Plan (RAP) before receipt of waste. The RAP is a site-specific plan that establishes\n5 actions to be taken if leakage through the upper (primary) lining system of a landfill exceeds a certain\n6 rate. The intent of the RAP is to assure that any leachate that leaks through the primary lining system will\n7 not migrate out of the landfill into the environment.\n8 A key element of the RAP is the Action Leakage Rate (ALR), a threshold value which triggers the\n9 responses described in the RAP, but below which no special actions are required. Because landfill liner\n10 systems have not yet been perfected, a small amount of leakage through the primary liner generally\n11 occurs, despite the use of best available materials, construction techniques, and quality assurance\n12 procedures. (This leakage is collected by the LDS system and removed from the landfill.) Hence, the\n13 ALR is set at some level higher than normally expected leakage rates to serve as an indicator that the\n14 primary lining system is not functioning as expected. Exceeding the ALR may reflect serious failure of\n15 the primary lining system and indicates the need for investigation and possibly corrective action while the\n16 problem is still manageable.\n17 This RAP has been prepared in accordance with requirements of WAC 173-303-665(9). The\n18 requirements for determining the ALR are contained in WAC 173-303-665(8) and the Environmental\n19 Protection Agency (EPA) guidance document, Action Leakage Rates for Leak Detection Systems (EPA\n20 530-R-92-004).\n21 The following sections establish the ALR and discuss response actions to be taken if the ALR is\n22 exceeded.\n23 4C.1.1. Action Leakage Rate\n24 Section 5.11 provides a detailed discussion of the analysis to determine the ALR into the LDS for the\n25 Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF). Based on this analyses, the ALR for the IDF permitted cell is\n26 206 gallons per acre per day, or approximately 1,800 gallons per day per cell (each cell area is\n27 approximately 8.5 acres). This value includes a factor of safety of 2 in accordance with EPA guidelines\n28 (57 FR 19). It is also much lower than the LDS pump capacity. Details of the calculation are presented\n29 in Appendix C.10.\n30 In accordance with WAC 173-303-665(8)(b), the flow rate used to determine if the ALR has been\n31 exceeded will be calculated as the average daily flow rate into the sump, expressed as gallons per acre per\n32 day (unless Ecology approves a different calculation). This calculation will be performed on a weekly\n33 basis during the active (operational) life of the landfill, and monthly after the landfill has been closed.\n34 Post-closure frequency may be reduced if only minimal amounts of leachate accumulate in the leak\n35 detection system sump. As outlined in WAC 173-303-665(4)(c)(ii), during post-closure monitoring, if\n36 the liquid level in the LDS sump stays below the pump operating level for two consecutive months,\n37 monitoring of the amount of liquid in the LDS sumps can be reduced to at least quarterly. If the liquid\n38 level in the LDS sump stays below the pump operating level for two consecutive quarters, monitoring of\n39 the amount of liquid in the LDS sumps can be reduced to at least semiannually. Pump operating level is\n40 defined as a liquid level approved by Ecology, based on pump activation level, sump dimensions, and\n41 level that minimizes head in the sump.\n42 4C.1.2. Response Actions\n43 WAC 173-303-665(9) lists several required actions if the ALR is exceeded. In the event that the ALR is\n44 exceeded, the United States Department of Energy (DOE) will:\n45 * Notify Ecology in writing of the exceedance within 7 days of the determination.\nAppendix 4C.5\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Submit a preliminary written assessment to Ecology within 14 days of the determination, as to the\n2 amount of liquids, likely sources of liquids, possible location, size, cause of any leaks, and short-\n3 term actions taken and planned.\n4 * Determine, to the extent practicable, the location, size, and cause of any leak.\n5 * Determine whether waste receipt should cease or be curtailed, whether any waste should be\n6 removed from the unit for inspection, repairs, or controls, and whether or not the unit should be\n7 closed.\n8 * Determine any other short-term and longer-term actions to be taken to mitigate or stop any leaks.\n9 * Within 30 days after the notification that the action leakage rate has been exceeded, submit to\n10 Ecology the results of the analyses specified in bullets 3, 4, and 5 of this section, the results of\n11 actions taken, and actions planned. Monthly thereafter, as long as the flow rate in the leak\n12 detection system exceeds the action leakage rate, the owner or operator must submit to the\n13 regional administrator a report summarizing the results of any remedial actions taken and actions\n14 planned.\n15 If the ALR is exceeded, DOE will submit the required notifications to Ecology, as stated above. The EPA\n16 will also receive copies of this confirmation.\n17 The leachate will be analyzed for Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) constituents. If the\n18 analytical results indicate that these constituents are present, and if the constituents can be traced to a\n19 particular type of waste stored in a known area of the landfill, then it may be possible to estimate the\n20 location of the leak. However, because the waste will meet land disposal restrictions, it will contain no\n21 free liquids and will be stabilized or solidified, except as allowed by Appendix 3A, section 1.2. In\n22 addition, the canister(s) or other type of waste package(s) may not undergo enough deterioration during\n23 the active life of the landfill to permit escape of its contents. For these reasons, it is possible that the\n24 leachate may be clean or the composition too general to indicate a specific source location.\n25 If the source location cannot be identified, large-scale removal of the waste and operations layer to find\n26 and repair the leaking area of the liner would be one option for remediation. However, this procedure\n27 risks damaging the liner. In addition, waste would have to be handled, stored, and replaced in the landfill.\n28 Backfill would need to be removed from around the waste packages to accomplish this. If the waste\n29 packages are damaged during this process, the risk of accidental release may be high. For these reasons,\n30 large scale removal of waste and liner system materials is not considered a desirable option and will not\n31 be implemented except as a last resort.\n32 The preferred options for remediation include covers and changes in landfill operating procedures. The\n33 preferred alternative will depend on factors such as the amount of waste already in the landfill, the rate of\n34 waste receipt, the chemistry of the leachate, the availability of other RCRA-compliant disposal facilities,\n35 and similar considerations. Hence, at this time no single approach can be selected. If the ALR is\n36 exceeded, potential options will be evaluated prior to selecting a remediation process. If necessary, an\n37 interim solution will be implemented while the evaluation and permanent remediation is performed.\n38 Examples of potential approaches include the following:\n39 * The surface of the intermediate soil cover over the waste could be graded to direct runoff into a\n40 shallow pond. The surface would then be covered with a discardable, temporary geomembrane\n41 (e.g., 30-mil PVC or reinforced polypropylene). Precipitation water would be pumped or\n42 evaporated from the pond and would not infiltrate the waste already in the landfill. Waste\n43 packages would be placed only during periods of dry weather and stored temporarily at other\n44 times. This type of approach would also be used, if necessary, to reduce leakage during the time\n45 immediately after the ALR was exceeded, while other remediation options were being evaluated.\n46 * If the landfill was nearly full, partial construction of the final closure cover might be an option.\n47 This would reduce infiltration into the landfill and possibly the leakage rate, if the cover was\n48 constructed over the failed area.\nAppendix 4C.6\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI * A layer of low-permeability soil could be placed over the existing waste, perhaps in conjunction\n2 with a geomembrane, to create a second \"primary\" liner higher in the landfill. This new liner\n3 would intercept precipitation and allow its removal.\n4 * A rigid-frame or air-supported structure could be constructed over the landfill to ensure that no\n5 infiltration occurred. Although costly, this approach might be less expensive than constructing a\n6 new landfill.\n7 In general, the selected remediation efforts would be those that are easiest to implement, with more\n8 difficult or expensive options to be applied only if earlier approaches were not satisfactory.\n9 4C.2.

A & B\n2 Part 1 -General\n3 Work Included\n4 This section describes requirements for clearing, grubbing and stripping of the IDF project area and\n5 associated facilities.\n6 Definitions\n7 Interfering or Objectionable Material: Trash, rubbish, and junk.\n8 Clearing: Removal of existing vegetation and interfering or objectionable material lying on or\n9 protruding above ground surface.\n10 Grubbing: Removal of vegetation and other organic matter including sagebrush, stumps, buried logs,\n11 and roots greater than 2 inches caliper to a depth of 6 inches below subgrade.\n12 Stripping: Removal of topsoil and other organic matter. Strippings suitable for topsoil shall be limited\n13 to upper 6 inches.\n14 Project Limits: Areas actually needed for site improvements, stockpiles, and borrow areas, as shown or\n15 specified, within which work is to be performed.\n16 Raw Water SuppyI\n17 Depending on the availability of connections to the raw water pipeline system, water for dust control may\n18 be obtained either from an existing water fill station on 4th Street near the west exit of the 200 East Area\n19 or from the raw water line that crosses the IDF site. A new raw water pipeline is being installed as part of\n20 Schedule A of the IDF project.\n21 Whether water is obtained from the existing water fill station or from new facilities on the IDF site, use of\n22 connections to the raw water system shall be in accordance with guidance from the Hanford Site Water\n23 Purveyor. Use and discharge of raw water during construction for construction activities, including dust\n24 control and fire protection, shall be controlled through the Hanford Site Water Purveyor, and shall comply\n25 with WAC 173-200 and the State Waste Discharge Permit No. ST 4508. For any use of existing water fill\n26 station or a water connection on the IDF site, the total of all IDF project water usage from the raw water\n27 system shall not exceed 1,500 gpm. There is no guarantee that the 1,500 gpm will be available at all\n28 times or that will be available from a single location on the IDF water system. In addition, the maximum\n29 water use limitation may be periodically reduced by the Hanford Site Water Purveyor depending on the\n30 other Hanford Site demands on the raw water system and/or the availability of raw water pumping\n31 capacity within the Hanford raw water system. When using any connection to the raw water system, the\n32 Construction General Contractor shall take whatever means are necessary to operate fill stations and other\n33 connections in such a manner to prevent causing water hammer. If water usage from the system is found\n34 to cause water hammer, the Hanford Site Water Purveyor may require the use of orifice plates, changes to\n35 valve operation methods, and/or a reduction in water use at a water connection as necessary to eliminate\n36 the water hammer. For any onsite fill station, Construction General Contractor shall provide a water\n37 storage tank (minimum size 20,000 gallons) equipped with a float actuated fill valve to minimize demand\n38 surges on the Hanford Water Supply.\n39 Submittals-Approval Required\n40 See Section 01300, SUBMITTALS, for submittal procedures.\n41 Site Preparation Plan: Prior to any mobilization of equipment to the site, the Construction General\n42 Contractor shall submit a Site Preparation Plan for approval. This plan shall include the following\n43 information as a minimum:\nAppendix 4D.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Detailed description of the proposed method for clearing, grubbing, and stripping the site. The plan\n2 shall identify those areas of the project site, which will be cleared, grubbed, and stripped. In addition,\n3 it will identify staging areas, stockpile areas, and the sequence in which the site preparation will be\n4 executed.\n5 Dust Control Plan:\n6 Prior to any earthwork activities on the project site such as site preparation and excavation,\n7 Construction General Contractor shall submit a Dust Control Plan for approval. The plan shall\n8 identify methods and equipment to minimize/control dust generation during all earthwork operations\n9 and include the following minimum requirements:\n10 Continuous control of dust generation during excavation and backfill placement, etc.\n11 Continuous control of wind-generated dust, including disturbed areas that are not being actively\n12 worked.\n13 Keep haul roads watered to control dust.\n14 A minimum two full water trucks (5,000 gallons each) for the duration of the project.\n15 Apply water or other approved dust suppressants as minimum to keep visible dust to a minimum\n16 during execution of work.\n17 Appropriate hand-held hose lines, sprinklers, and other equipment as needed to access and control\n18 non-vehicle access areas such as borrow and stockpile side slopes.\n19 Maintain and protect native cover where possible, through minimization of site disturbance.\n20 Limit access road development to minimum necessary to execute work.\n21 Stabilization of inactive disturbed work areas by longer-term methods such as matting, tack and\n22 mulch or crusting agents.\n23 Implementation of permanent stabilization on a regular basis when sufficient area exists for\n24 application or as needed to control dust.\n25 General Construction Contractor shall use daily field reports to document dust control measures.\n26 implemented and their effectiveness.\n27 These dust control plan items are required to satisfy the requirements of Section 3.0 -Mitigation of\n28 Potential Dust Impacts from Construction Activities of the \"Mitigation Action Plan for USDOE,\n29 Hanford Site, Immobilized Low-Activity Waste (ILAW) Disposal Site Construction\n30 (Project W-520),\" prepared by PNNL for USDOE.\n31 Submit details of raw water supply, storage, and water withdrawal limiting equipment as part of the\n32 Dust Control Plan.\n33 Scheduling and Sequencing\n34 The sequence of the activities listed below shall be followed by the Construction General Contractor\n35 for the site preparation work.\n36 Initial site preparation activities shall commence only after Dust Control Plan and Site Preparation\n37 Plan have been approved.\n38 Following the approved Site Preparation Plan, establish an adequate water supply source for dust\n39 control use.\n40 After establishing an adequate water supply and sediment controls, proceed with site preparation\n41 activities as specified.\nAppendix 4D.10\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Part 2 -Products (Not Used)\n2 Part 3 -Execution\n3 General\n4 Clear, grub, and strip only areas actually needed for stockpiles, borrow, or site improvements within\n5 limits shown and specified.\n6 Extent of Site Preparation required for individual designated stockpile areas shall be as directed by\n7 the Construction Manager.\n8 Do not injure or deface vegetation that does not require removal.\n9 As an initial step in clearing the site, the General Construction Contractor shall remove all trash,\n10 rubbish, and junk from the site. This material shall be disposed in accordance with Division 1\n11 requirements.\n12 Clearing\n13 Cut off shrubs, brush, weeds, and grasses to within 4 inches of ground surface.\n14 Grubbing\n15 Grub all areas where excavations, fill, roadways, structures, and ditches are to be placed.\n16 Vegetation other than noxious weeds, removed by the clearing and grubbing, shall be placed in\n17 stockpile with the strippings to be used as topsoil. Place vegetation at the base of the strippings\n18 stockpile area and track with equipment to break apart and crush the material. Obtain Construction\n19 Manager approval of the vegetation placement.\n20 Stripping\n21 Strip all areas where excavations, borrow areas, stockpiles, fills, roadways, structures, and ditches are\n22 to be placed, to remove organic materials.

Prepare the underlying soil surface as specified in\n13 Section 02319, SUBGRADE PREPARATION, and as approved by the Geomembrane Installer.\n14 The Geomembrane Installer shall certify in writing that the surface on which the geomembrane will\n15 be installed is acceptable. The certificate of acceptance shall be given by the Installer to the\n16 Construction General Contractor prior to commencement of geomembrane installation in the area\n17 under consideration. The CQA Certifying Engineer shall be given a copy of this certificate by the\n18 Construction General Contractor. The form for Geomembrane Installer certification is provided as\n19 Supplement to this Specification. Submittal of this form only applies to soil surfaces underlying the\n20 geomembrane. In this case Geomembrane Installer Certification of Subsurface Acceptability is only\n21 required for the surface on which the secondary and SLDS geomembrane shall be installed.\n22 After the subgrade surface has been accepted by the Installer, it shall be the Installer's responsibility\n23 to indicate to the Construction General Contractor any change in the subgrade surface condition that\n24 may require repair work.\n25 Special care shall be taken to avoid desiccation cracking or freezing of the admix liner.\n26 Specifications for allowable desiccation cracking of soil liner and repair measures are contained in\n27 Section 02666, ADMIX LINER.

Two cases are defined:\n38 If the geomembrane is fabricated into panels in a factory, a field panel is a factory panel or a portion\n39 of factory panel cut in the field.\n40 If the geomembrane is not fabricated into factory panels, a field panel is a roll or a portion of roll cut\n41 in the field.\n42 It will be the responsibility of the CQA Certifying Engineer to assign each field panel an\n43 \"identification code\" (number or letter-number) consistent with the layout plan. This identification\n44 code shall be agreed upon by the Construction Manager, Installer, and CQA Certifying Engineer.\nAppendix 4D.69\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 This field panel identification code shall be as simple and logical as possible. (Note that roll numbers\n2 assigned in the manufacturing plant are usually cumbersome and are not related to location in the\n3 field.)\n4 The CQA Certifying Engineer will establish a table or chart showing correspondence between roll\n5 numbers, factory panels, and field panel identification codes. The field panel identification code shall\n6 be used for all quality assurance records, including Installer's quality control (QC) testing.\n7 Field Panel Placement:\n8 Location: Field panels shall be installed at the locations indicated in the Installer's layout plan, as\n9 approved or modified.\n10 Installation Schedule: In general seaming of geomembrane will be performed the same day as\n11 deployment. However, at the discretion of Geosynthetic Installer, seaming may be carried over to the\n12 following workday.\n13 Placement Conditions:\n14 Geomembrane placement shall not proceed at an ambient temperature below 32 degrees F or above\n15 104 degrees F as measured 6 inches above the geomembrane surface unless installation procedures\n16 approved by the CQA Certifying Engineer are in place to address environmental conditions.\n17 Geomembrane placement shall not be done during any precipitation, in the presence of excessive\n18 moisture (e.g., fog, dew), in an area of ponded water, or in the presence of excessive winds.\n19 Placement methods shall prevent damage to underlying soil liner or geosynthetic materials.\n20 Factors such as expansion, contraction, overlap at seams, anchorage requirements, seaming progress,\n21 and drainage shall be considered. Textured-surface sheets shall be aligned in a manner, which\n22 maximizes theii frictional capabilities along the slope. Maneuver sheets of geomembrane into place\n23 in a manner, which prevents wrinkles, folds, or similar distress, which can damage the geomembrane\n24 or prevent its satisfactory alignment or seaming. A smooth-surface HDPE geomembrane rub sheet\n25 shall be used when placing textured HDPE geomembrane over underlying GCL. The rub sheet shall\n26 be maintained in good condition without tears, rough edges, holes, or scuff marks that can catch,\n27 displace, or otherwise disturb the underlying GCL, or the overlying geomembrane.\n28 Damage: Damaged panels or portions of damaged panels, which have been rejected, shall be removed\n29 from the work area. Any repairs shall be made according to procedures described in this Part of the\n30 Specifications.\n31 Exposed Geomembrane Protection: After panel deployment, all geomembrane, except those shown as\n32 permanently exposed on the Drawings, shall be covered to within a maximum period of 20 working days\n33 to minimize exposure to temperature cycles that cause expansion/contraction of the geomembrane and\n34 desiccation of the underlying admix liner. Exposure in excess of 15 days, Construction General\n35 Contractor will peel back leading panel of geomembrane on a routine basis (established by the CQA\n36 inspector) for CQA to inspect for desiccation of admix liner. Any observed desiccation observed outside\n37 of specification tolerance will be repaired and the geomembrane covered immediately. Additional\n38 exposure areas may be required by CQA to verify complete repair areas required. Geomembrane panels\n39 shall be covered by other geosynthetic components of the lining system or overlying soil cover materials\n40 as shown on the Drawings.\n41 Field Seaming -Polyethylene Geomembranes\n42 Seaming Equipment and Products: Approved processes for field seaming are extrusion welding and\n43 fusion welding, except that use of extrusion welding shall be limited to areas (such as sumps or repairs)\n44 where fusion welding cannot be employed. Proposed alternate processes shall be documented and\n45 submitted by the Installer to the Construction Manager and CQA Certifying Engineer for approval. Only\n46 equipment, which has been specifically approved by make and model, shall be used.\nAppendix 4D.70\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Extrusion Process:\n2 The extrusion-welding machine shall be equipped with gages capable of measuring the temperature at\n3 the nozzle or the preheat temperature.\n4 The Installer shall provide documentation regarding the extrudate and shall certify that the extrudate\n5 is compatible with these Specifications and is comprised of the same resin type as the geomembrane\n6 sheeting.\n7 The Installer shall comply with the following:\n8 The Installer shall maintain on-site a sufficient number of spare operable seaming machines (at least\n9 one at all times) to ensure continuous operation.\n10 The equipment used for seaming shall not be likely to damage the geomembrane.\n11 The extruder shall be purged prior to beginning a seam until all heat-degraded extrudate has been\n12 removed from the barrel.\n13 The electric generator shall be placed on a smooth base such that no damage occurs to the\n14 geomembrane.\n15 Grinding shall be completed no more than 1 hour prior to seaming.\n16 A smooth insulating plate or fabric shall be placed beneath the hot welding machine after usage.\n17 The geomembrane shall be protected from damage in heavily trafficked areas.\n18 Fusion Process: The fusion-welding machines shall be automated vehicular-mounted devices. The\n19 fusion-welding machines shall be equipped with gages giving the pertinent temperatures.\n20 The Installer shall comply with the following:\n21 The Installer shall maintain on site a sufficient number of spare operable seaming machines (at least\n22 one at all times) to ensure continuous operations.\n23 The equipment used for seaming shall not be likely to damage the geomembrane.\n24 The electric generator shall be placed on a smooth base such that no damage occurs to the\n25 geomembrane.\n26 A smooth insulating plate or fabric shall be placed beneath the hot welding machine after usage.\n27 The geomembrane shall be protected from damage in heavily trafficked areas.\n28 If a build-up of moisture is observed prior to seaming a movable protective layer shall be used directly\n29 below each overlap of geomembrane to be seamed to prevent buildup of moisture between the sheets.\n30 Seam Layout: In general, seams shall be oriented parallel to the line of maximum slope, i.e., oriented up\n31 and down, not across, the slope to the maximum extent practical. In comers and odd-shaped geometric\n32 locations, the number of seams shall be minimized. No seams shall be permitted within the LCRS sump\n33 trough for leachate collection and riser pipes. One full panel width shall span the LCRS sump trough.\n34 On the landfill floor:\n35 No horizontal seam shall be less than 5 feet from the toe of the slope, or other area of potential stress\n36 concentrations.\n37 Over the LCRS, LDS, and SLDS sump areas in each cell, no horizontal seam shall be placed less than\n38 150 feet from the toe of the north slope for a distance of at least 100 feet in each direction from the\n39 LCRS and LDS sump centerline.\n40 Seams shall be aligned to produce the fewest possible number of wrinkles and \"fishmouths\".\n41 A seam numbering system consistent with the panel numbering system shall be utilized.\nAppendix 4D.71\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Weather Conditions for Seaming: The allowable weather conditions for seaming are as follows:\n2 Unless authorized in writing by the Construction Manager, no seaming shall be attempted at ambient\n3 temperatures below 32 degrees F or above 104 degrees F as measured 6 inches above the\n4 geomembrane surface.\n5 The geomembrane shall be dry, protected from wind, and free of dust.\n6 If the Installer wishes to use methods, which may allow seaming at ambient temperatures below\n7 32 degrees F, the Installer shall certify in writing that the quality of the seams welded at these\n8 temperatures is the same as the quality of seams welded at temperatures above 32 degrees F. In\n9 addition, if the Installer wishes to seam at ambient temperatures below 32 degrees F, the following\n10 conditions shall be satisfied in addition to the general seaming procedures:\n11 For extrusion welding, preheating shall be performed. Preheating may be waived by the Construction\n12 Manager if it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the CQA Certifying Engineer that welds of\n13 equivalent quality may be obtained without preheating at the expected temperature of installation.\n14 Sheet grinding, if required, may be performed before preheating.\n15 Observe all areas of the geomembrane that have been preheated to determine that they have not been\n16 subjected to excessive melting.\n17 Confirm that geomembrane surface temperatures have not decreased below the minimum specified\n18 for welding, due to wind or other adverse conditions. Wind protection for the seam area may be\n19 required.\n20 Trial seams, as described in paragraph Trial Seams of this section, shall be made in the immediate\n21 area where seaming will occur, under the same ambient temperature and preheating conditions as the\n22 actual seams. New trial seams shall be made if the ambient temperature decreases by more than\n23 5 degrees F from the previous trial seam conditions. Such new trial seams shall be conducted as soon\n24 as seams in progress during the temperature drop have been completed.\n25 Additional destructive seam tests, as described in paragraph Destructive Seam Strength Testing of\n26 this section, shall be performed at intervals of 250 to 500 feet of seam length at the CQA Certifying\n27 Engineer's discretion.\n28 The Installer shall provide sample coupons cut from each end of the seam.\n29 Seam Preparation:\n30 Cleaning: Prior to seaming, the seam area shall be clean and free of moisture, dust, dirt, debris of any\n31 kind, and foreign material. Special attention shall be paid to cleaning the existing geomembrane at tie-in\n32 locations.\n33 Overlap: Cross slope, seams on both the trench floor and sideslopes shall be overlapped so that liquids\n34 are not trapped, i.e., seams shall be shingled downslope. If seam overlap grinding is required, the process\n35 shall be completed according to the geomembrane manufacturer's instructions within I hour of the\n36 seaming operation, and in a way, that does not damage the geomembrane. Panels of geomembrane shall\n37 have a finished overlap of a minimum of 3 inches for extrusion welding and 5 inches for fusion welding.\n38 Use of Solvents: No solvent or adhesive shall be used.\n39 Temporary Bonding: The procedure used to temporarily bond adjacent panels together shall not\n40 damage the geomembrane; in particular, the temperature of hot air at the nozzle of any spot welding\n41 apparatus shall be controlled such that the geomembrane is not damaged.\n42 General Seaming Procedure: The general seaming procedure used by the Installer shall be as follows:\n43 Seaming shall extend to the outside edge of panels to be placed in the anchor trench.\n44 If required, a firm substrate shall be provided by using a flat board, a conveyor belt, or similar hard\n45 surface directly under the seam overlap to achieve proper support.\nAppendix 4D.72\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI If seaming operations are carried out at night, adequate illumination shall be provided.\n2 \"Fishmouths\" or wrinkles at the seam overlaps shall be cut along the ridge of the wrinkle in order to\n3 achieve a flat overlap. The cut \"fishmouths\" or wrinkles shall be seamed, and any portion where the\n4 overlap is inadequate shall then be patched with an oval or round patch of the same geomembrane\n5 extending a minimum of 6 inches beyond the cut in all directions.\n6 Construction Quality Control Testing -Polyethylene Geomembranes\n7 General: Testing requirements specified herein are intended for the Construction General Contractor\n8 (and Geomembrane Installer) during geomembrane installation. Testing requirements for the CQA\n9 Certifying Engineer are provided in the CQA Plan.\n10 Trial Seams:\n11 Trial seams shall be made on fragment pieces of geomembrane liner to verify that seaming conditions\n12 are adequate. A trial seam shall be made prior to each seaming period (maximum of 6 hours) for each\n13 seaming machine used that day. Also, each seamer shall make at least one trial seam each day. Trial\n14 seams shall be made under the same conditions as actual seams.\n15 The trial seam sample shall be at least 2 feet long by 1 foot wide (after seaming) with the seam\n16 centered lengthwise. Seam overlap shall be as indicated in this Part.\n17 Test three specimens for peel and two specimens for shear. Each specimen shall be at least 1 inch\n18 wide and shall be cut from the trial seam sample by the Installer. The specimens shall be tested\n19 respectively in shear and peel using a field tensiometer, and they shall not fail in the seam. All trial\n20 seam specimens must meet the minimum requirements of Table 2, Required Seam Properties, for trial\n21 seam acceptance. If a specimen fails, the entire operation shall be repeated. If the additional\n22 specimen fails, the seaming apparatus and seamer shall not be accepted and shall not be used for\n23 seaming until the deficiencies are corrected and two consecutive successful full trial seams are\n24 achieved.\n25 All test equipment shall be in calibration and conform to manufacturer's specifications. The Installer\n26 shall provide the Construction Manager and CQA Certifying Engineer with current calibration\n27 certificates.\n28 Nondestructive Seam Continuity Testing:\n29 General:\n30 The Installer shall nondestructively test all field seams over their full length using a vacuum test unit,\n31 air pressure test (for double fusion seams only), or other approved method (i.e., spark test). Vacuum\n32 testing and air pressure testing are described below. The purpose of the nondestructive test is to\n33 check the continuity of seams. It does not provide any information on seam strength. Continuity\n34 testing shall be done as the seaming work progresses. Nondestructive testing will not be permitted\n35 before sunrise or after sunset unless the Construction General Contractor demonstrates to the CQA\n36 Certifying Engineer their capability to perform testing under reduced light conditions. Any seams,\n37 which fail nondestructive testing, shall be repaired in accordance with these Specifications. Seams,\n38 which cannot be nondestructively tested because of seam geometry, shall be double welded or\n39 capped.\n40 All test equipment shall be in calibration and conform to manufacturer's specifications. The Installer\n41 shall submit current calibration certificates.\n42 Vacuum Testing: The equipment shall be comprised of the following:\n43 A vacuum box assembly consisting of a rigid housing, a transparent viewing window, a soft neoprene\n44 gasket attached to the bottom, port hole or valve assembly, and a vacuum gage.\n45 A steel vacuum tank and pump assembly equipped with a pressure controller and connections.\n46 A rubber pressure/vacuum hose with fittings and connections.\nAppendix 4D.73\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 A bucket and wide paint brush.\n2 A soapy solution.\n3 The following procedures shall be used:\n4 Energize the vacuum pump and reduce the tank pressure to a minimum of 5 inches of mercury.\n5 Wet a strip of geomembrane approximately 12 inches wide by 48 inches long with the soapy solution.\n6 Place the vacuum box over the test area.\n7 Close the bleed valve and open the vacuum valve.\n8 Ensure that a leak tight seal is created.\n9 For a period of not less than 10 seconds, examine the geomembrane through the viewing window for\n10 the presence of soap bubbles.\n11 If no bubbles appear coming from the seam after 10 seconds, close the vacuum valve and open the\n12 bleed valve, move the box over the next adjoining area with a minimum 3-inch overlap, and repeat\n13 the process.\n14 All areas where soap bubbles appear shall be marked and repaired in accordance with this Part.\n15 Air Pressure Testing: The following procedures are applicable only to those processes, which produce a\n16 double seam with an enclosed air channel. All double seams with an enclosed air channel shall be air\n17 pressure tested. The equipment shall be comprised of the following:\n18 An air pump (manual or motor driven) capable of generating and sustaining a pressure of 60 to 65 psi.\n19 A rubber hose with fittings and connections.\n20 A sharp hollow needle, or other approved pressure feed device.\n21 A calibrated pressure gage capable of reading pressures up to 65 psi.\n22 The following procedures shall be used:\n23 Seal both ends of the seam to be tested.\n24 Insert needle with pressure gage, or other approved pressure feed device, into the air channel created\n25 by the fusion weld.\n26 Energize the air pump and pressurize the channel to a minimum 25 psi for a 1/2-inch wide channel, or\n27 55 psi for a 1-inch wide channel. Close the valve and sustain the pressure for a minimum of\n28 5 minutes.\n29 If loss of pressure exceeds 2 psi, or does not stabilize, locate faulty area and repair in accordance with\n30 this section. If significant changes in geomembrane temperature occur during the test (e.g., due to\n31 cloud cover), the test shall be repeated after the geomembrane temperature has stabilized.\n32 Cut end of seam opposite to the pressure gage and observe that the pressure drops. If the pressure\n33 does not drop, locate the obstruction(s) in the seam, repair, and retest seam.\n34 Remove needle or other approved pressure feed device and repair seam.\n35 Destructive Seam Strength Testing:\n36 General:\n37 Destructive seam tests shall be performed at selected locations. The purpose of these tests is to\n38 evaluate seam strength. Seam strength testing shall be done as the seaming work progresses. The\n39 samples shall meet the requirements of Table 2, Required Seam Properties.\n40 All test equipment shall be in calibration and conform to manufacturer's specifications. The Installer\n41 shall submit current calibration certificates.\n42 Each sample shall be tested for bonded seam shear and peel strength by an independent testing\n43 laboratory.\nAppendix 4D.74\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Test at least five specimens for each seam test method (shear and peel). Four out of five specimens\n2 must meet the minimum requirements of Table 2, Required Seam Properties, for field seam\n3 acceptance.\n4 Location and Frequency:\n5 Destructive seam samples shall be obtained from actual fabricated field seams as work progresses, not\n6 at the completion of field seaming. The CQA Certifying Engineer will select locations where seam\n7 samples will be removed.\n8 Sampling frequency shall be a minimum of one sample per 500 feet of seam length per welding\n9 machine (this minimum frequency shall be determined as an average taken from all the panels,\n10 including welds for caps), or a minimum of two samples per factory panel, whichever gives the\n11 largest number of samples. If agreed by all parties (Construction General Contractor, Construction\n12 Manager, and the CQA Certifying Engineer) the frequency of destructive seam testing may be\n13 reduced to one sample per 1,000 feet of seam if test results and other nondestructive seam tests appear\n14 adequate for assuring seam quality. If, based on the specified test frequency, a destructive test\n15 location should fall within the LCRS or LDS sump area (as shown on the Drawings); the distance\n16 between destructive tests shall be reduced to relocate the destructive test location outside the sump\n17 area.\n18 Sampling Procedures:\n19 Samples shall be cut by the Installer as the seaming progresses in order to provide laboratory test\n20 results before completion of installation. The CQA Certifying Engineer shall assign a number to each\n21 sample, mark it accordingly, and record the sample location on the layout drawing.\n22 All holes in the geomembrane resulting from destructive seam sampling shall be immediately\n23 repaired in accordance with repair procedures. The continuity of the new seams in the repaired area\n24 shall be tested as described in this Part.\n25 Sample Size: The samples shall be minimum 12 inches wide by minimum 42 inches long with the seam\n26 centered lengthwise. One 1-inch wide strip shall be cut from each end of the samples, and these shall be\n27 tested in the field as described below. The remaining sample shall be distributed as follows:\n28 One portion (minimum 12 inches by 12 inches) to the Installer for laboratory testing at his discretion.\n29 One portion (minimum 12 inches by 12 inches) to the Construction Manager for archive storage.\n30 One portion (minimum 12 inches by 18 inches) to the CQA Certifying Engineer for laboratory\n31 testing.\n32 Field Testing:\n33 The two 1-inch wide strips described above shall be tested in the field by tensiometer for peel and\n34 shear and shall not fail in the seam. If any test sample fails to pass, then the procedures outlined\n35 below (Procedures for Areas Failing Destructive Tests) shall be followed.\n36 The CQA Certifying Engineer will mark all samples and portions with its number. The CQA\n37 Certifying Engineer will also record the date and time, ambient temperature, number of seaming unit,\n38 name of seamer, welding apparatus temperatures and pressures, and pass or fail descriptions, and\n39 attach a copy to each sample portion.\n40 Procedures for Areas Failing Destructive Tests: The following procedures shall apply whenever a\n41 sample fails a destructive test, whether that test is conducted by the independent testing laboratory, the\n42 Installer's laboratory, or by field tensiometer. The Installer has two options:\n43 The Installer shall cap the seam between any two passing test locations, or\n44 The Installer shall trace the seam to two intermediate locations 10 feet minimum from the point of the\n45 failed test in each direction and take a small sample for an additional field test at each location. If\n46 these additional samples pass the test, then full samples shall be taken for laboratory testing.\nAppendix 4D.75\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 If these laboratory samples pass the tests, then the seam shall be capped between these locations. If\n2 either sample fails, then the sampling and testing process shall be repeated to establish the zone over\n3 which the seam shall be capped.\n4 All acceptable capped seams shall be bounded by two locations from which samples passing CQA\n5 laboratory destructive tests have been taken. In cases where the length of the capped seam exceeds\n6 150 feet, a sample of the capping seam shall be taken and shall pass destructive testing as described in this\n7 Part.\n8 Repairs -Polyethylene Geomembranes\n9 General:\n10 Any portion of the geomembrane exhibiting a flaw or failing a destructive or nondestructive test shall\n11 be repaired. All repairs shall be conducted in accordance with this Part. All repairs shall be subjected\n12 to the nondestructive seam testing procedures described in this Part.\n13 Each patch or other type of repair will be numbered and recorded.\n14 Repair Procedures:\n15 Patching, used to repair large holes, tears, undispersed raw materials, and contamination by foreign\n16 matter.\n17 Grinding and rewelding, used to repair small sections (typically with a maximum length of no more\n18 than several inches) of extruded seams.\n19 Spot welding or seaming used to repair pinholes.\n20 Capping, used to repair large lengths of failed seams or areas where large wrinkles or fish mouths\n21 have been cut to flatten the geomembrane sheet.\n22 Topping, used to repair areas of inadequate seams, which have an exposed edge. Topping shall be\n23 limited to an aggregate length of no more than 3 m (10 feet) on any given seam.\n24 Removing bad seam and replacing with a strip of new material welded into place, used with large\n25 lengths of fusion seams.\n26 For all repair methods, the following provisions shall be satisfied as applicable:\n27 Surfaces of the geomembrane, which are to be repaired, shall be abraded no more than one hour prior\n28 to the repair.\n29 All surfaces shall be clean and dry at the time of the repair.\n30 Patches or caps shall extend at least 6 inches beyond the edge of the defect, and all corners of patches\n31 shall be rounded with a radius of at least 3 inches.\n32 The geomembrane below large caps shall be appropriately cut to avoid water or gas collection\n33 between the two sheets.\n34 Verification of Repairs: Each repair shall be numbered and recorded. Each repair shall be\n35 nondestructively tested using the methods described in this Part. Large caps may be of sufficient extent to\n36 require destructive test sampling. Repairs that fail nondestructive or destructive tests shall be redone and\n37 retested until a passing test is obtained.\n38 Protection Of Termination Edges\n39 Along the south termination of the geomembrane, and along any termination edges of the membrane that\n40 may be exposed or buried for extended periods of time prior to their joining to adjacent subsequent\n41 sections, the Construction General Contractor shall protect leading edges with protective (sacrificial)\n42 layers of cushion geotextile and plywood sheet as shown on the Drawings.\nAppendix 4D.76\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Materials In Contact With Geomembrane\n2 The requirements of this Part are intended only to assure that the installation of other materials does not\n3 damage the geomembrane.

During admix\n6 production; the CQA Certifying Engineer may request a recalibration of the feed rate for each\n7 material as described above.\n8 All measuring equipment shall be calibrated and calibration certificates provided to the CQA\n9 Certifying Engineer prior to starting admix production.\n10 Preparation Requirements:\n11 The base soil shall be processed through a pugmill to add bentonite at the specified rate, to add\n12 additional water if required, and to provide mechanical mixing action required to homogeneously\n13 blend the bentonite and water into the mix. Additional mixing by rotovator or other approved means\n14 shall be performed at the Construction General Contractor's sole expense as required to further break\n15 down the soil clumps or if additional mixing is needed to achieve a homogenous blend of soil, water,\n16 and bentonite. The admix shall be broken down in size sufficiently to result in at least 80 percent of\n17 the soil clumps broken down to 1/2 inch in maximum size. Clods are defined as dry hard particles in\n18 the admix that cannot be remolded by hand pressure.\n19 If mixing is found to be insufficient to produce a thoroughly blended, uniform mixture of base soil\n20 and bentonite, or the base soil and bentonite are not being mixed in the specified proportions, the\n21 Construction General Contractor shall stop production of admix material. The Construction General\n22 Contractor shall not restart production and installation of admix liner until procedures and equipment\n23 have been modified so that the specified material is produced. Admix liner that is installed without\n24 complete mixing or the correct percentage of bentonite shall be removed and modified by the\n25 Construction General Contractor to meet the Specifications. After being modified to meet the\n26 Specifications, the material may be reinstalled in the lining. Additional work and delays caused by\n27 inadequate or incorrect mixing shall be performed at the Construction General Contractor's sole\n28 expense. The Construction General Contractor shall not change the bentonite application rate unless\n29 directed to do so by the Engineer in writing.\n30 Admix shall be processed and allowed to cure at least 12 hours prior to placement. The Construction\n31 General Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining the moisture content of the admix within the\n32 specified limits. Admix that does not meet Specifications shall not be reused as feed stock unless\n33 approved by the Engineer and CQA Certifying Engineer.\n34 Test Pad(s)\n35 Test pads for the admix liner shall be constructed as specified in Article ADMIX LINER\n36 PLACEMENT AND COMPACTION, by the Construction General Contractor to determine\n37 acceptable placement and compaction methods to produce a low-permeability admix liner that\n38 satisfies the requirements of this section. Both a horizontal and sideslope test pad shall be\n39 constructed. The location of the test pads will be designated by the Construction Manager and the\n40 CQA Certifying Engineer.\n41 Test Pad Material: The Construction General Contractor will prepare a sufficient quantity of soil for the\n42 test pad in accordance with the requirements of Article ADMIX LINER MATERIAL. All specified\n43 procedures for mixing, conditioning, and stockpiling of the soil material will be followed.\n44 Horizontal Test Pad Construction:\n45 The test pad will be constructed on a horizontal surface within the limits of the IDF in an area\n46 representative of conditions beneath the waste disposal cells. The pad will be located in a well-drained\n47 area to prevent surface water intrusion or saturation of the test pad soils.\nAppendix 4D.85\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The test pad location will be cleared and grubbed, and the subgrade will be compacted in the same\n2 manner anticipated for construction beneath the waste disposal cells. Prior to placement of the test pad\n3 materials, the Contractor's Site Superintendent and the CQA Certifying Engineer will evaluate the\n4 condition of the subgrade; areas containing potentially unsuitable materials will be replaced, or another\n5 location will be selected for the test pad.\n6 So that the test pad will accurately represent the performance of the full-scale facility, the following\n7 guidelines will be followed:\n8 Construction of the test pad will use the same soil materials, design specifications, equipment, and\n9 procedures as proposed for the full-scale facility.\n10 The test pad will be constructed at least four times wider than the construction compactor drum width\n11 to be used for the full-scale facility and allow for installation of field permeability testing per method\n12 ASTM D6391 or 50 feet minimum (whichever is greater). This is required to ensure a sufficient\n13 representative area for testing, avoiding the edges of the test pad. The test pad may be subdivided\n14 into \"lanes\" to facilitate evaluation of different compaction methods; however, the width of any\n15 individual lane shall be no less than twice the width of the construction compactor drum equipment.\n16 The test pad will be long enough to allow construction equipment to achieve normal operating speed\n17 before reaching the area that will be used for testing or 80 feet minimum (whichever is greater).\n18 The test pad will be constructed with at least six lifts to evaluate the methodology used to tie lifts\n19 together. Lift thickness will be as described in Article ADMIX PLACEMENT AND\n20 COMPACTION, and the total thickness of the test pad will be at least 3 feet.\n21 The test pad constructed will include the removal and replacement of a portion of the soil to evaluate\n22 the method proposed for repairing defective portions of the full-scale liner as specified in Article\n23 REPAIR OF ADMIX LINER.\n24 Sideslope Test Pad Construction:\n25 The sideslope test pad will be constructed on a 3H: 1V sideslope (within the lined area of Phase 1) to\n26 evaluate compaction methods and performance on the sideslope. Field permeability testing is not\n27 required for sideslope test pad. Sideslope test pad will be used to demonstrate that compaction and\n28 placement methods to achieve acceptable moisture and density requirements can be achieved.\n29 So that the test pad will accurately represent the performance of the full-scale facility, the following\n30 guidelines will be followed:\n31 Construction of the test pad will use the same soil materials, design specifications, equipment, and\n32 procedures as proposed for the full-scale facility.\n33 The test pad will be constructed at least four times wider than the widest piece of construction\n34 equipment to be used for the full-scale facility or 40 feet minimum (whichever is greater). This is\n35 required to ensure a sufficient representative area for testing, avoiding the edges of the test pad. The\n36 test pad may be subdivided into \"lanes\" to facilitate evaluation of different compaction methods;\n37 however, the width of any individual lane shall be no less than twice the width of the widest piece of\n38 construction equipment.\n39 The test pad will be long enough to allow construction equipment to achieve normal operating speed\n40 before reaching the area that will be used for testing or 80 feet minimum (whichever is greater).\n41 The test pad will be constructed with at least six lifts to evaluate the methodology used to tie lifts\n42 together. Lift thickness will be as described in Article SOIL BENTONITE PLACEMENT AND\n43 COMPACTION, and the total thickness of the test pad will be at least 3 feet.\n44 Demonstrate the Following During Test Pad(s) Construction:\n45 Base soil/bentonite mixing process prior to compaction.\n46 Compaction equipment type, configuration, and weight.\nAppendix 4D.86\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The method used to break down clods before compaction and maximum resulting clod size.\n2 The speed of compaction equipment traveling over the test pad.\n3 Moisture content of soil bentonite at time of compaction.\n4 Lift thicknesses (compacted), compaction procedures, and number of passes for proposed compaction\n5 equipment.\n6 Dry unit weight achieved and measured by field density testing.\n7 Hydraulic conductivity of compacted test fill on undisturbed samples (Shelby Tubes) as described in\n8 the Construction Quality Assurance (CQA) Plan.\n9 Field permeability of compacted test fill using ASTM D6391 (horizontal test pad only) as described\n10 in the CQA Plan.\n11 Excavate at least four holes, each 3 feet square, through each completed pad for observation,\n12 sampling, and testing of compacted material. These holes shall be used for the purpose of\n13 demonstrating repair methods as specified herein.\n14 No admix liner shall be placed until the associated test pad has been constructed and the results from\n15 all test methods indicate that the admix liner will satisfy the permeability requirements specified in\n16 this section. Testing for each test pad shall be as described in the CQA Plan. At the completion of\n17 the test pad(s), the CQA Certifying Engineer, as described in the CQA Plan, will prepare an interim\n18 report with recommendations for compaction and placement methods to be applied to the full-scale\n19 admix liner construction.\n20 After all testing has been completed and approved, the material in the test pad can be used by the\n21 Construction General Contractor for liner construction provided that the material satisfies the\n22 requirements of these Specifications.\n23 Subqrade Preparation\n24 As specified in Section 02319, SUBGRADE PREPARATION, Article PREPARED SUBGRADE FOR\n25 ADMIX LINER.\n26 Admix Liner Placement and Compaction\n27 Lift Thickness: Admix liner material, as specified in Article ADMIX LINER MATERIAL, shall be\n28 placed in loose lifts, and compacted such that the compacted lift thickness is 6 inches or less (within a\n29 tolerance of 0.1 foot). However, the first lift of admix liner placed over subgrade soils may be placed and\n30 compacted to a maximum thickness of 8 inches (within a tolerance of 0.1 foot).\n31 Placement methods shall prevent excessive mixing of admix liner with subgrade soil.\n32 Compaction: The intent of this Specification is that admix liner shall be produced to meet an in-place\n33 performance specification of less than 1x10 -'cm/sec hydraulic conductivity within the limits of edge of\n34 liner shown on the Drawings. See paragraph Outside Edge of Liner in this Article for compaction and\n35 hydraulic conductivity requirements beyond edge of liner. The Construction General Contractor is\n36 responsible to develop and use compaction methods that produce the required relative compaction.\n37 The moisture-density ranges of the compacted admix shall lie within a trapezoidal-shaped field with the\n38 following corners:\nMoisture Content (%) Dry Density (pcf)\n8 126\n12 110\n14 126\n19 110\nAppendix 4D.87\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Hydraulic Conductivity: The in-place compacted admix liner shall achieve a saturated hydraulic\n2 conductivity as listed below:\n3 All field (in-situ) test results shall be I x 10-7 cm/sec or less. Field (in-situ) hydraulic conductivity\n4 tests will be performed only on admix liner of the horizontal test pad.\n5 All hydraulic conductivity during admix production placement will be verified on undisturbed Shelby\n6 tube samples (see ASTM D1587) obtained from in-place admix liner per the CQA plan and then\n7 tested in laboratory using methods as described in ASTM D5084.\n8 Hydraulic conductivity will be verified on undisturbed samples from completed areas of the liner as\n9 described in the CQA Plan. The arithmetic average of laboratory test results on undisturbed Shelby\n10 tube samples shall be less than or equal to 5 x 10-8 cm/sec, with no individual test result exceeding 1 x\n11 10-7cm/sec. The acceptable values for laboratory test results will be verified or adjusted prior to\n12 admix liner production placement based on the correlation of field and laboratory hydraulic\n13 conductivity test results from the horizontal test pad. The final laboratory hydraulic conductivity\n14 requirement will be approved by the CQA Certifying Engineer and documented in the horizontal test\n15 pad report.\n16 Outside Edge of Liner: Compact admix liner as specified herein. Performance specification for admix\n17 hydraulic conductivity do not apply to admix placed beyond edge of liner.\n18 Uniformity: The compacted soil distribution and gradation throughout the liner shall be free from lenses,\n19 pockets, streaks, layers, or material differing substantially in texture, moisture content, dry density, or\n20 gradation from surrounding material. The admix liner material shall be free of organic debris, frozen\n21 material, rubbish, construction debris, and other deleterious material. Any soil containing unacceptable\n22 material shall be removed and discarded in the permanent stockpile, placed in accordance with\n23 Section 02315, FILL AND BACKFILL.\n24 Moisture Conditioning:\n25 The moisture content of the admix liner shall be uniform throughout each lift prior to and during\n26 compaction of the material. If the moisture content of a lift of compacted admix liner falls below the\n27 acceptable limit during placement operations, the Construction General Contractor shall moisture\n28 condition the dry soil and re-compact the lift prior to placement of additional lifts. If the moisture\n29 content of a lift of compacted soil exceeds the acceptable limit due to precipitation or over watering,\n30 the Construction General Contractor, before placement of additional lifts, shall either allow the wet\n31 soil to dry back or remove the wet soil. If the admix liner material cannot be conditioned to meet the\n32 placement specifications, the material shall be removed and replaced with new admix liner.\n33 When the final lift of admix liner placement will be interrupted for more than a few hours or when\n34 precipitation is imminent, as determined by the Contractor's Site Superintendent, the lift surface shall\n35 be sealed with a smooth drum roller to prevent excessive moisture infiltration. This surface shall be\n36 scarified with a rotovator, or other equivalent equipment, immediately prior to resuming soil\n37 placement. The Construction General Contractor shall verify that existing moisture content is within\n38 the range specified in Article ADMIX LINER PLACEMENT AND COMPACTION, prior to\n39 resumption of soil placement activities.\n40 Placement Equipment: The Construction General Contractor shall place layers of the admix liner to\n41 form a continuous monolithic material. All admix liner shall be placed and compacted with a self-\n42 propelled pegfoot or padfoot roller compactor having a minimum operating weight of 68,000 pounds.\n43 Smaller compaction equipment may be used in limited areas as necessary provided that the required\n44 moisture/density, lift bonding, and hydraulic conductivity can be achieved. Hydraulic conductivity\n45 performance specification for the admix liner will be verified in areas where the lighter equipment is\n46 used. Hauling and spreading equipment will not be considered as compaction equipment. The compactor\n47 feet shall be sufficiently long to knead (bond) new lifts into previously placed lifts.\nAppendix 4D.88\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The feet shall be kept free of large amounts of dried soil that might restrict foot penetration or become\n2 incorporated into the soil lift. The top of each lift may be scarified with a rotovator, or other equivalent\n3 equipment or procedures, prior to placing the subsequent lift. The final lift of admix liner may be\n4 compacted with a smooth drum roller provided that all other requirements are met.\n5 Provide a smooth soil surface on the final lift prior to placement of the HDPE geomembrane as specified\n6 in Article SURFACE FINISHING.\n7 Tie-in Areas: Where new admix liner is tied in to existing admix of a previous day's placement, any\n8 areas of the existing admix which are soft, cracked, or otherwise unsuitable shall be removed until\n9 acceptable material is exposed. Where new admix will be placed, the surface of the existing admix liner\n10 shall be scarified and moisture conditioned as described in this section. New admix liner shall be placed\n11 in accordance with the requirements of this section and shall be thoroughly kneaded into the existing\n12 admix liner to form a monolithic mass free of seams or other discontinuities.\n13 Placement Method: Admix liner may be placed on the sideslopes in either horizontal lifts (along the\n14 contour) or in lifts parallel to the slope (up and down the slope). If admix liner is placed parallel to the\n15 slope, compaction equipment shall not spin their wheels or in any other way disturb the previously placed\n16 lifts. If this occurs, the Construction General Contractor shall place all of the admix liner in horizontal\n17 lifts.\n18 Restrictions: Production, mixing, and stockpiling of admix or native clay soil shall be restricted to the\n19 area shown on the Drawings or within the Phase I footprint as approved by the Construction Manager.\n20 Surface Finishing\n21 The surface of the admix liner shall be trimmed to the design grades and tolerances as shown on the\n22 Drawings. The surface of the admix liner shall be rolled with a smooth-drum roller to remove all\n23 ridges and surface irregularities as specified in Section 02319, SUBGRADE PREPARATION. All\n24 wheel ruts in excess of depths specified in Section 02319, SUBGRADE PREPARATION, on the\n25 surface of the admix liner shall be repaired by the Construction General Contractor prior to placement\n26 of the geomembrane. Acceptable methods for repair of the admix liner are specified in Article\n27 REPAIR OF ADMIX LINER.\n28 Maintenance\n29 The Construction General Contractor shall maintain the admix liner surface in a condition suitable for\n30 geomembrane installation until the surface is covered. The admix liner shall be protected from\n31 desiccation or excessive moisture. This may be accomplished by periodic watering, exclusion of\n32 traffic, placement of a temporary removable plastic cover, or other methods. Desiccation cracks\n33 larger than 1 inch deep or 0.25 inch wide shall be excavated to the full depth of the crack and repaired\n34 as specified in Article REPAIR OF ADMIX LINER. In the event that the geomembrane cannot be\n35 installed within 12 hours after placement of the final admix liner lift, the final lift of admix liner shall\n36 be constructed 4 to 6 inches thicker than required and cut to finish grade immediately before\n37 geomembrane deployment.\n38 The Construction General Contractor shall take measures to prevent the admix liner from freezing.\n39 Lifts of admix liner shall not be placed on frozen surfaces. Geomembrane shall not be placed on a\n40 surface, which is frozen or has been frozen and thawed until directed by the Construction Manager\n41 and the CQA Certifying Engineer.\n42 Repair of Admix Liner\n43 The Construction General Contractor shall repair the surface of any areas identified to be out of\n44 tolerance. The size of the repair area shall be as required to remove and/or repair defective areas of\n45 the admix liner.

C. Lowe\nDOCUMENT OWNER: R. E. Larson\n3 1.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE\n4 The purpose of this management directive (MD) is to establish the requirements for standardized criteria\n5 for new graphic process displays (human-machine interfaces) that are being designed or acquired for\n6 process monitoring and control systems of CH2M HILL Hanford Group, Inc. (CH2M HILL) facilities\n7 and managed projects.\n8 The requirements of this MD are applicable to new monitoring and control system designs (Human-\n9 Machine Interfaces) for CH2M facilities and to projects that have not completed an Acceptance Test\n10 Procedure (ATP). Application of the MD requirements to existing human-machine interfaces systems\n11 and human-machine interfaces systems with a completed ATP will be determined, planned, and\n12 performed in accordance with the resolution of PER-2003-4039.\n13 2.0 IMPLEMENTATION\n14 This management directive is effective on the date shown in the header and will remain in effect until a\n15 new Graphic Process Display Criteria for Human-Machine Interface Standard is issued.\n16 3.0 DIRECTIVE\n17 The following requirements that are based on the national standard ISA-S5.5-1985, \"Graphic Symbols for\n18 Process Displays,\" are the Tank Farm Contractors (TFC) design requirement for new process monitoring\n19 and control systems (Human-Machine Interfaces).\n20 3.1 General\n21 The following general symbol usage standards apply:\n22 1. The graphic process display will follow requirements specified in ISA-S5.5 standard.\n23 2. The use of outline and solid (filled) symbol forms to indicate status is as follows:\n24 * An outline symbol form indicates an off, stopped, or nonactive state.\n25 * A solid (filled) symbol form indicates an on, running, or active state.\n26 * Status designation by use of solid or outline forms are particularly applicable to the rotating\n27 equipment and valves and actuators. In depicting valve position, use solid to show open\n28 (material flowing or active) and outline to show closed (material stopped or nonactive).\n29 * A symbol may be partially filled or shaded to represent the characteristic of the contents of a\n30 vessel, e.g. level, temperature, etc.\nAppendix 4D.260\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 3.2 Color\n2 The following standards are to be applied to the application of color to process displays:\n3 1. The following color application guidelines are to be followed:\n4 * The number of colors in one display should be limited to the minimum necessary (typically 4\n5 or less) to satisfy the process interface objectives of the display.\n6 * Compatible color combinations should be used.\n7 * Use color as a redundant indictor along with text, symbol, shape, size, reverse video,\n8 blinking, and intensity coding to preserve communication with individuals having limited\n9 color perception.\n10 * Colors are not to be used to indicate quantitative value.\n11 2. Colors are to be assigned consistent with Tables 1-4.\n12 Table 1.

This chapter\n4 describes the groundwater monitoring plan for the IDF and addresses the requirements of RCRA, as\n5 described in 40 CFR 264, Subpart F, by reference of WAC 173-303-645(3). Figure 5.1 shows the\n6 location of the IDF and surrounding groundwater wells in the 200 East Area. This chapter is designed to\n7 meet final status detection-level groundwater monitoring requirements for the IDF. This groundwater\n8 monitoring plan is based on the application of a modified data quality objectives (EPA QA/G-4) process\n9 to a conceptual model, and the most recent evaluations of groundwater hydrology and chemistry at the\n10 site.\n11 This plan describes the characteristics of the waste to be disposed in the IDF and the site geology and\n12 hydrology used to design and operate the monitoring well network and to interpret the groundwater data.\n13 The historic groundwater chemistry from wells near the IDF site is provided. Much of the information\n14 pertaining to waste characterization is taken from HNF-4921 and that pertaining to hydrogeology from\n15 PNNL-1 1957, PNNL-12257, PNNL-13652, and PNNL-14029.\n16 The plan includes a description of network well locations, well construction, sample constituents, and\n17 sampling frequency for detection-level groundwater monitoring. Procedures for determination of\n18 compliance point groundwater quality also are included. Finally, this plan provides the basis for rapid\n19 development of a compliance monitoring plan if a validated exceedance of an indicator parameter is\n20 found. This plan controls initial baseline monitoring and subsequent detection level monitoring only for\n21 the IDF.\n22 Source, special nuclear, and byproduct materials as defined by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as\n23 amended, are regulated at the United States Department of Energy (DOE) facilities exclusively by DOE\n24 acting pursuant to its AEA authority.

Interim status groundwater monitoring is\n35 not applicable.\n36 5.3 Aquifer Identification\n37 The following sections discuss geology and hydrology.\n38 5.3.1 Geology of the IDF Site\n39 The 200 East Area lies on the Cold Creek bar, a geomorphic remnant of the cataclysmic, glacial related\n40 floods of the Pleistocene Epoch. As the floodwaters raced across the lowlands of the Pasco Basin and\n41 Hanford Site, floodwaters lost energy and began to deposit sand and gravel. The 200 Area Plateau is one\n42 of the most prominent deposits. The 200 Area Plateau lies just southwest of one of the major flood\n43 channels across the Hanford Site that forms the topographic lowland south of Gable Mountain.\n44 Borehole data provide the principal source of geologic, hydrologic, and groundwater information for the\n45 200 East Area and the IDF site.\n46\nChapter 5.5\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Numerous boreholes (both vadose zone boreholes and groundwater monitoring wells) have been drilled in\n2 the 200 East Area for groundwater monitoring and waste management studies (Figure 5.1 shows the\n3 location of groundwater wells near the IDF site.) However, data are limited within the IDF site primarily\n4 because no previous construction or waste disposal activities have occurred in this part of the Hanford\n5 Facility. Most boreholes in the 200 East Area have been drilled using the cable tool method and either a\n6 hard tool or drive barrel to advance the hole. Some boreholes have been drilled by rotary and wire line\n7 coring methods. More recently, boreholes in the area have been drilled, and in five cases cored, by\n8 percussion hammer methods. Geologic logs are based on examination of drill core, chips, and cuttings\n9 from these boreholes. Chip samples typically are taken at 1.5-meter intervals and routinely archived at\n10 the Hanford Geotechnical Sample Library.\n11 5.3.1.1 Structural Framework\n12 The IDF site will be located south of the Gable Mountain segment of the Umtanum Ridge anticline and\n13 about 3 kilometers north of the axis of the Cold Creek syncline, which controls the structural grain of the\n14 basalt bedrock and the Ringold Formation. The basalt surface and Ringold Formation trend roughly\n15 southeast-northwest parallel to the major geologic structures of the site. As a result, the Ringold\n16 Formation and the underlying Columbia River Basalt Group gently dip to the south off the Umtanum\n17 Ridge anticline into the Cold Creek syncline.\n18 Geologic mapping on the Hanford Site and examination of drill core and borehole cuttings in the area\n19 have not identified any faults in the vicinity of the IDF site (DOE/RW-0164). The closest known faults\n20 are along the Umtanum Ridge-Gable Mountain structure north of the disposal site and the May Junction\n21 fault east of the site (Figure 5.2).\n22 5.3.1.2 Stratigraphy\n23 The basalt and post-basalt stratigraphy for the IDF site is shown in Figure 5.3. Approximately 137 to 167\n24 meters of suprabasalt sediments overlie the basalt bedrock at the site.\n25 Basalt Bedrock. Previous studies (RHO-BWI-ST-14; Reidel and Fecht 1994) have shown that the\n26 youngest lava flows of the Columbia River Basalt Group at the 200 East Area are those of the\n27 10.5 million year old Elephant Mountain Member. This member underlies the entire 200 East Area and\n28 surrounding area and forms the base of the suprabasalts aquifer. No erosional windows in the basalt are\n29 known or suspected to occur in the area of the IDF site.\n30 Ringold Formation. Few boreholes penetrate the entire Ringold Formation at the IDF site so available\n31 data are limited. The Ringold Formation reaches a maximum thickness of 95 meters on the west side of\n32 the site and thins eastward. The member of Wooded Island (Figure 5.3) is the only member of the\n33 Ringold Formation in the 200 East Area. The deepest Ringold Formation unit encountered is the lower\n34 gravel, unit A. Lying above unit A is the lower mud unit and overlying the lower mud unit is upper\n35 gravel, unit E. The sand and silt units of the members of Taylor Flat and Savage Island of the Ringold\n36 Formation are not present at the IDF site. Unit A and unit E are equivalent to the Pliocene-Miocene\n37 continental conglomerates (Reidel and Fecht 1994). The lower mud unit is equivalent to the\n38 Pliocene-Miocene continental sand, silt, and clay beds (Reidel and Fecht 1994).\n39 Only three boreholes have penetrated unit A in the area of the IDF site. Unit A is 19 meters thick on the\n40 west side of the site and thins to the northeast. Unit A is partly to well cemented conglomerate consisting\n41 of both felsic and basaltic clasts in a sandy matrix and is interpreted as a fluvial gravel facies\n42 (Lindsey 1996). There are minor beds of yellow to white interbedded sand and silt. Green colored,\n43 reduced-iron stain is present on some grains and pebbles. Although the entire unit appears to be\n44 cemented, the zone produced abundant high quality water in borehole 299-E17-21 (PNNL-1 1957).\n45 Nineteen meters of the lower mud unit were encountered in one borehole at the IDF site (PNNL-1 1957).\n46 The upper most 1-meter or so consists of a yellow mud to sandy mud. The yellow mud grades downward\n47 into about 10 meters of blue mud.\n48\nChapter 5.6\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The blue mud, in turn, grades down into 7 meters of brown mud with organic rich zones and occasional\n2 wood fragments. The lower mud unit is absent in the center of the site (northeast of borehole 299-E24-7\n3 on Figure 5.4).\n4 Unit E is described as a sandy gravel to gravelly sand. Unit E is interpreted to consist of as much as\n5 15 meters of conglomerate with scattered large pebbles and cobbles up to 25 centimeters in size in a\n6 sandy matrix. The gravel consists of both felsic and basaltic rocks that are well rounded with a sand\n7 matrix supporting the cobbles and pebbles. Cementation of this unit ranges from slight to moderate.\n8 The upper contact of unit E is not identified easily at the IDF site. In the western part of the study area,\n9 unconsolidated gravels of the Hanford formation directly overly the Ringold Formation unit E gravels,\n10 making exact placement of the contact difficult. The dominance of basalt and the absence of cementation\n11 in the Hanford formation are the key criteria used to distinguishing these (PNNL-1 1957). In the central\n12 and northeast part of the area, unit E has been eroded completely. Unconsolidated gravels and sands\n13 typical of the Hanford formation replace unit E.\n14 Unconformity at the Top of the Ringold Formation. The surface of the Ringold Formation is irregular\n15 in the area of the IDF site. A northwest-southeast trending erosional channel or trough (the Columbia\n16 River/Missoula flood channel) is centered through the northeast portion of the site. The trough is deepest\n17 near borehole 299-E24-21 in the northern part of the site (PNNL-13652). This trough is interpreted as\n18 part of a larger trough under the 200 East Area resulting from scouring by the Missoula floods. Borehole\n19 299-E17-21, located at the southwest corner of the IDF site, is at the west side of the channel where\n20 approximately 46 meters of Ringold Formation have been removed and replaced by Hanford formation\n21 gravels. Boreholes 299-E17-25 and 299-E17-23, located along the southeastern edge of the Site, are near\n22 the deepest portion of the channel where it is interpreted that almost all of the Ringold Formation has\n23 been eroded. At this location, the water table in the channel is interpreted to be 52 meters above the\n24 basalt, which forms the floor of the channel. The surface of basalt rises to the north where the water table\n25 is approximately 27 meters above the basalt at the northeast corner of the site near borehole 299-E24-21.\n26 Hanford formation. The Hanford formation is as much as 116 meters thick in and around the IDF site.\n27 The Hanford formation thickens in the erosional channel cut into the Ringold Formation and thins to the\n28 southwest along the margin of the channel.\n29 At the IDF site, the Hanford formation consists mainly of sand dominated facies with lesser amounts of\n30 silt dominated and gravel dominated facies. The Hanford formation has been described as poorly sorted\n31 pebble to boulder gravel and fine- to coarse-grained sand, with lesser amounts of interstitial and\n32 interbedded silt and clay. In previous studies of the site (WHC-MR-0391), the Hanford formation was\n33 described as consisting of three units: an upper and lower gravel facies and a sand facies between the two\n34 gravelly units. The upper gravel dominated facies appears to be thin or absent in the immediate area of\n35 the IDF site (PNNL-12257, PNNL-13652, and PNNL-14029).\n36 The lowermost part of the Hanford formation encountered in boreholes at the IDF site consists of the\n37 gravel-dominated facies. Drill core and cuttings from boreholes 299-E17-21, 299-E17-22, 299-E17-23,\n38 299-E17-25, and 299-E24-21 indicate that the unit is a clast-supported pebble- to cobble gravel with\n39 minor amounts of sand in the matrix. The cobbles and pebbles almost are exclusively basalt with no\n40 cementation. This unit pinches out west of the IDF site and thickens to the east and northeast\n41 (Figure 5.4). The water table beneath the IDF site is located in the lower gravel unit. The lower gravel\n42 unit is interpreted to be Missoula flood gravels deposited in the erosional channel carved into the\n43 underlying Ringold Formation.\n44 The upper portion of the Hanford formation consists of at least 73 meters of fine- to coarse-grained sand\n45 with minor amounts of silt and clay and some gravelly sands.\n46 Holocene Deposits. Holocene, eolian deposits cover the southern part of the IDF site. Caliche coatings\n47 on the bottom of pebbles and cobbles in drill cores through this unit are typical of Holocene caliche\n48 development in the Columbia Basin.\nChapter 5.7\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The southern part of the IDF site is capped by a stabilized sand dune. The eolian unit is composed of\n2 fine- to coarse-grained sands with abundant silt, as layers and as material mixed with the sand.\n3 Clastic Dikes. A clastic dike was encountered in borehole C3828, adjacent to well 299-E17-25, at the\n4 IDF site. Clastic dikes also have been observed in excavations surrounding the site [e.g., US Ecology, the\n5 former Grout area, the 216-BC cribs, the Central Landfill, and the Environmental Restoration Disposal\n6 Facility (BHI-01103)]. In undisturbed areas, such as the IDF site, clastic dikes typically are not observed\n7 because these are covered by windblown sediments. The occurrence of a clastic dike in borehole C3828\n8 suggests that these probably are present elsewhere in the subsurface at the disposal site. The IDF\n9 excavation will be geologically mapped to document the occurrence of any clastic dikes that may exist at\n10 the site.\n11 5.3.2 Groundwater Hydrology\n12 The unconfined aquifer under the IDF site occurs in the fluvial gravels of the Ringold Formation and\n13 flood deposits of the Hanford formation. The thickness of the aquifer ranges from about 70 meters at the\n14 southwest corner of the site to about 30 meters under the northeast corner of the IDF site. The Elephant\n15 Mountain Member of the Columbia River Basalt Group forms the base of the unconfined aquifer\n16 (Figure 5.4).\n17 The unsaturated zone beneath the land surface at the IDF site is approximately 100 meters thick and\n18 consists of the Hanford formation. The water level in boreholes in and around the site indicates that the\n19 water table is in the lower gravel sequence of the Hanford formation and at an elevation of approximately\n20 123 meters above sea level. The water table is nearly flat beneath the IDF site. Table 5.1 gives water\n21 level information from wells near the site. The locations of the wells are shown on Figure 5.1. The latest\n22 water table map shows less than about 0.1 meter of hydraulic head differential across the IDF site\n23 (Figure 5.5).\n24 The Ringold Formation lower mud unit occurs within the aquifer at the southwest corner of the IDF site\n25 (299-E17-21) but is absent in the central and northern parts of the site (299-E24-7 and 299-E24-21). The\n26 lower mud unit is known to be a confining or partly confining layer at places under the Hanford Site\n27 (PNNL-12261) and this might be the case under the southwest corner of the IDF site. Groundwater\n28 samples were collected and analyzed from above and below the lower mud unit during drilling of well\n29 299-E17-21. Chemical parameters (pH, electrical conductivity, and Eh) were different in the two samples\n30 suggesting that the lower mud is at least partly confining in the area. No contamination was found above\n31 or below the lower mud. An interpretation of the distribution and thickness of this stratum is shown in\n32 Figure 5.4. The surface of the lower mud unit is interpreted to dip gently to the southwest\n33 (PNNL-13652).\n34 Hydrographs for selected wells near the IDF site are shown in Figure 5.6. Although the water table is\n35 extremely flat in the area of the IDF, hydrographs suggest that groundwater flow has had an easterly\n36 component throughout the 1990s and has not significantly changed due to cessation of discharges to the\n37 216-B Pond system. Hydrographs for the older wells (299-E23-1, 299-E23-2, and 299-E24-7) show two\n38 maxima in the water level. These coincide with the operation of the PUREX Plant, which operated\n39 between 1956 and 1972 and between 1983 and 1988. All the hydrographs show a decline in the water\n40 table during recent years. The rate of decline is between 0.18 and 0.22 meter per year and will take\n41 between 10 and 30 years to stabilize. The reason for the decline is the cessation of effluent discharge to\n42 the 216-B Pond System, which is centered northeast of 200 East Area. Based on hindcast water table\n43 maps (BNWL-B-360), the water table is expected to decline another 2 to 7 meters before reaching\n44 pre-Hanford Site elevations. The cessations of effluent discharge also are responsible for changes in the\n45 direction of groundwater flow across much of the 200 East Area.\n46 Groundwater flow beneath the IDF site recently was modeled to be southeasterly (PNNL- 13400). This\n47 direction differs from the easterly direction predicted by the analysis of WHC-SD-WM-RPT-241 and\n48 other earlier reports.\n49\nChapter 5.8\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The southeasterly flow direction primarily is attributable to inclusion of the highly permeable Hanford\n2 formation sediments in the ancestral Columbia River/Missoula flood channel in the analysis.\n3 A southeasterly flow direction is reflected in the geographic distribution of the regional nitrate plume and\n4 in the distribution of other constituents under the south-central 200 East Area (PNNL-14187, 1 of 2,\n5 2 of 2). As stated in PNNL-13404 (1 of 2, 2 of 2), the water table gradient is too low to be used for\n6 determining flow direction or flow rate at the PUREX Plant cribs immediately east of the IDF site.\n7 Hydraulic conductivity directly beneath the IDF site was estimated from data collected during four slug\n8 tests at well 299-E17-21 and five slug tests of 299-E24-21. The interval tested at 299-E17-21 was the\n9 upper 7.8 m of the unconfined aquifer from 101.3 to 109.1 m depth. That portion of the aquifer is\n10 Hanford formation gravel from 101.3 to 102.1 m depth and Ringold Formation unit E gravels from 102.1\n11 to 109.1 m depth (PNNL-1 1957). The interval tested at well 299-E24-21 was entirely in the Hanford\n12 formation gravel sequence between 95.2 and 101.3 m depth. The best fit value to the data from\n13 299-E17-21 indicated a hydraulic conductivity of about 68.6 meters per day (PNNL-1 1957) and from\n14 299-E24-21 suggested a hydraulic conductivity of 75 meters per day (PNNL-13652).\n15 5.4 Contaminant Plume Description\n16 Although no groundwater monitoring has been done for the IDF, groundwater monitoring has been done\n17 in support of RCRA permitting activities and in support of other activities in the area. The results of that\n18 monitoring show that a regional nitrate plume exists beneath the IDF site (PNNL-14187, I of 2, 2 of 2).\n19 In the south-central 200 East Area, the plume extends in a northwest -southeast direction along the axis\n20 of the Columbia River/Missoula flood channel eroded into the Ringold Formation sediments. The\n21 channel is filled with more transmissive Hanford formation sediments.\n22 5.4.1 Groundwater Contamination\n23 Nitrate, associated with past-practice activities in 200 East Area, is a general groundwater chemistry\n24 parameter and is not a contaminant of concern for the IDF. However, the distribution of existing nitrate\n25 in the groundwater gives an indication of the general groundwater flow direction and the influence that\n26 adjacent sites might have on the IDF.\n27 High nitrate concentrations found near liquid waste disposal facilities located outside the IDF site that\n28 received effluent from the PUREX Plant are decreasing steadily with time. The highest nitrate\n29 concentration found in 2002 was 170,000 pig/L in well 299-E17-9 at the 216-A-36B crib and the crib is\n30 thought to be the source of the nitrate. The drinking water standard for nitrate is 45,000 ptg/L (nitrate\n31 ion).\n32 Nitrate in well 299-E24-18, just inside the east boundary of the IDF site, decreased from a high of\n33 86,300 gg/L in 1990 to a low of 17,000 jig/L in 1993, reflecting the cessation of PUREX Plant operations\n34 in 1988. Since 1993, nitrate has increased to 48,300 gg/L in 2003 (Figure 5.7). The reason for the\n35 increase is not understood. One possibility is related to changing groundwater flow direction. During\n36 PUREX Plant operations, flow direction was probably to the northwest because of effluent discharges to\n37 the B Pond System and PUREX Plant cribs, and nitrate contamination might have spread to the northwest\n38 during that period. Subsequently, liquid discharges to the B Pond System and PUREX Plant cribs have\n39 ceased and the flow direction in the area of the IDF site apparently has returned to the southeast direction.\n40 With that change, higher levels of nitrate contaminated groundwater might be returning to the area from\n41 the northwest.\n42 Except for an anomalous value of 82,600 gg/L in 1988, nitrate concentration in well 299-E24-7 was\n43 steady and ranged between 12,800 and 35,400 g/L between 1985 and 1996 when the well was last\n44 sampled (Figure 5.7). The last two measured values from 1995 and 1996 were 26,000 pg/L. Farther\n45 southwest, nitrate detected in 1998 in well 299-E17-21 in Ringold unit E was 23,600 ptg/L.\n46 5.4.2 Vadose Zone Contamination\n47 Very little characterization and monitoring of the soil have been done at the IDF site because no major\n48 construction or waste disposal activities have occurred in this part of the Hanford Site.\nChapter 5.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Implementation of the Integrated Disposal Facility Preoperational Monitoring Plan (RPP-6877) has\n2 begun and characterization activities will occur during the next few years. The Integrated Disposal\n3 Facility Preoperational Monitoring Plan (RPP-6877) has a strong emphasis on vadose zone\n4 characterization and deferred groundwater monitoring to this groundwater monitoring plan. Vadose zone\n5 information resulting from preoperational monitoring will be included, if applicable, in updates to this\n6 groundwater monitoring plan.\n7 The Integrated Disposal Facility Preoperational Monitoring Plan (RPP-6877) identified three areas near\n8 the IDF site that might have had an influence on the vadose zone beneath the site. These are the 218-E-i\n9 Burial Ground and an unplanned release associated with the burial ground; the coal ash pile in the\n10 northwest part of the site; and a transfer line along the northern part of the west boundary of the IDF site\n11 (RPP-6877). Work was outlined in the Integrated Disposal Facility Preoperational Monitoring Plan to\n12 determine whether these three areas had introduced contamination to the site. Appropriate results from\n13 preoperational monitoring will be incorporated into this groundwater monitoring plan as results become\n14 available and as revisions are needed.\n15 In addition to these facilities, the 216-A-38-1, 216-A-45, and 216-A-10 cribs and the 299-E24-1 11\n16 injection well are located east of the IDF site. The 216-A-38-1 crib never was used (DOE/RL-92-04).\n17 The 299-E24-1 11 injection well never received any waste (DOE/RL-92-04). The 216-A-45 and the\n18 216-A 10 cribs both received large quantities of liquid waste (DOE/RL-92-04). Because these latter two\n19 facilities are more than 200 meters from the IDF site, it is unlikely these facilities have affected the soil\n20 beneath the IDF site. Data from the vadose zone in IDF wells drilled along the east side of the site\n21 support this.\n22 5.5 Detection Monitoring Program\n23 Because the IDF has not been constructed, no contaminants have been released to the ground or to the\n24 groundwater.\n25 5.5.1 Indicator Parameters, Waste Constituents, Reaction Products to be Monitored\n26 5.5.1.1 Regulated Constituents\n27 The regulated constituents for this groundwater monitoring plan are the constituents identified on the IDF\n28 Part A Form.\n29 5.5.1.2 Monitoring Parameters\n30 The parameters to be routinely monitored are listed in Table 5.2. These parameters include the indicator\n31 parameters and supplemental parameters.\n32 The indicator parameters will be used to monitor for hazardous constituents reaching the groundwater as a\n33 result of IDF operations. Only the indicator parameters are subject to the statistical methods described in\n34 Section 5.5.4.7. Total organic carbon and total organic halides are indicator parameters selected to\n35 monitor impacts of RCRA regulated organic constituents on the groundwater quality. Specific\n36 conductance is selected as an indicator parameter to monitor impacts of metals and anions on\n37 groundwater quality. pH is a general indicator of groundwater quality. Specific conductance and pH are\n38 measured in the field at the time of sampling. Chromium is included as an indicator parameter because\n39 hexavalent chromium is one of the more mobile of the regulated metals to be disposed of at the IDF and\n40 should be one of the first constituents to enter groundwater if the regulated facility impacts groundwater.\n41 Analyses of alkalinity, anions, and metals are to provide supplemental data on general groundwater\n42 chemistry beneath the IDF. This information aids data interpretation and quality control. Supplemental\n43 parameters will not be used in statistical evaluations. Turbidity is analyzed at the well just before\n44 sampling and provides an indication of the groundwater condition at the time of sampling.\n45 For the first year of monitoring, all parameters listed in Table 5.2 will be monitored twice each quarter to\n46 determine background concentrations.\nChapter 5.10\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 After the first year, indicator and supplemental parameters will be monitored semi-annually. In addition,\n2 field measurements of temperature and turbidity will be made at each sampling event.\n3 During the first sampling event at each well for the first year of monitoring, samples will be collected for\n4 analysis of the indicator parameters, the supplemental parameters, and the Appendix IX constituents\n5 (40 CFR 264) included in IDF Part A Form. After the first sampling event, samples will be collected for\n6 analysis of indicator parameters and supplemental parameters only.\n7 After the first year of sampling, if an indicator parameter suggests there is an impact to groundwater,\n8 additional samples will be collected to verify the initial results. If a statistically significant increase in any\n9 indicator parameter is confirmed, analyses will be made for the regulated parameters in IDF Part A Form.\n10 Monitoring for baseline conditions was completed for the indicator parameters in April 2006 and for the\n11 complete Appendix IX list in January 2007. Semi-annual monitoring has continued since that time with\n12 the collection of four independent samples each semiannual period. During the Pre-Active life, sampling\n13 will continue at the IDF with the collection of one sample each year to maintain the baseline. When the\n14 IDF becomes operational, sampling will revert to four independent samples collected each semiannual\n15 period.\n16 5.5.1.3 Dangerous Waste Characterization\n17 This section describes the waste to be disposed in the IDF and gives background information on how the\n18 constituents of concern (regulated constituents) and indicator parameters were selected.\n19 5.5.1.3.1 Volume of the Waste Package\n20 The IDF will be a single, expandable disposal facility constructed to RCRA Subtitle C standards, half of\n21 which is for disposal of mixed waste the other half will be for disposal of low-level waste. Initial capacity\n22 for mixed waste disposal is 82,000 cubic meters of waste with an ultimate capacity of up to 450,000 cubic\n23 meters of waste. Disposal capacity beyond the initial 82,000 cubic meters will require a modification to\n24 the Part B Permit. The mixed waste types to be disposed in the IDF include vitrified Low Activity Waste\n25 (LAW) from the RPP-WTP and DBVS. Additionally, mixed waste generated by IDF operations will be\n26 disposed of in IDF.\n27 The vitrified LAW will be mostly silicate glass monoliths. The RPP-WTP packages nominally measure\n28 approximately 1.22 m diameter by 2.3 m high and the DBVS package nominally measure approximately\n29 2.4 m wide by 3.1 m high by 7.3 m long. Vitrified LAW will be remote handled.\n30 If other forms of immobilized LAW are considered in the future, this monitoring plan will be amended.\n31 Mixed waste generated through waste operations at IDF will be packaged based on the size of the waste,\n32 with the most common container being galvanized or aluminized 208 liter containers.\n33 5.5.1.3.2 Composition of the Waste Packages\n34 HNF-4921 provides detailed estimates for the inventory of hazardous chemicals in the vitrified LAW feed\n35 and in the vitrified LAW package. The composition of the vitrified LAW package was estimated in\n36 HNF-4921 based on:\n37 1) The Tank Waste Retrieval System Characterization Program tank-by-tank Best Basis Inventories.\n38 2) The latest U.S. Department of Energy, Office of River Protection (DOE/ORP) guidance.\n39 3) The requirements for waste retrieval and vitrification.\n40 4) Available information from waste treatment plant contractors, and (5) proposed operating\n41 scenarios for retrieval of waste from Double Shell Tanks (DSTs) and Single Shell Tanks (SSTs).\n42 5.5.1.4 Behavior of Constituents\n43 Almost all of the regulated constituents for the IDF show some degree of retardation in the vadose zone\n44 and in the saturated zone.\nChapter 5.11\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Table 5.3 indicates the range of expected behaviors in the subsurface at the IDF for selected regulated\n2 constituents. The constituents in Table 5.3 were selected by comparing the expected constituents in the\n3 vitrified LAW package (from HNF-492 1) and the historical inventories of the Hanford Site low-level\n4 burial grounds (from WHC-MR-0008 and WHC-SD-EN-AP-0 15) to 40 CFR 264, Appendix IX (see IDF\n5 Part A Form). The mobilities and solubilities in Table 5.3 give an estimated range for the properties of\n6 the constituents of concern.\n7 5.5.1.5 Detectability\n8 The detection limits in groundwater for each RCRA regulated constituent and the indicator parameters are\n9 given in Table 5.4.\n10 5.5.2 Groundwater Monitoring Program\n11 The following sections provide a description of wells, equipment decontamination, representative\n12 samples, and monitoring wells that are not upgradient.\n13 5.5.2.1 Description of Wells\n14 The groundwater monitoring well network for the IDF ultimately will have eight wells: three\n15 hydraulically upgradient of the facility and five hydraulically downgradient. The downgradient wells will\n16 be placed to sample groundwater passing the point of compliance. The point of compliance at the IDF\n17 site is a plane connecting the groundwater monitoring wells along the southern and eastern sides of the\n18 site in accordance with WAC 173-303-645(6), which states \"The point of compliance is a vertical surface\n19 located at the hydraulically downgradient limit of the waste management area that extends down into the\n20 uppermost aquifer underlying the regulated unit\". The monitoring network will consist of existing and\n21 new, downgradient wells to complete the monitoring network. All wells will be WAC 173-160\n22 compliant.\n23 Three upgradient wells will be used for the IDF monitoring network. Two of these wells (299-E18-1 and\n24 299-E24-21) are existing wells. Upgradient well 299-E24-21 was installed in March 2001 for\n25 characterization of the IDF site. The well, located at the northeast corner of the site (Figure 5.8), was\n26 constructed to RCRA standards as per WAC 173-160. Well 299-E18-1 was installed in 1988 as part of\n27 the 2101-M RCRA monitoring network. The well currently has 2 to 3 meters of water above the bottom\n28 of the screened interval.\n29 The third upgradient well will be a new well located at the northwest corner of the IDF (Figure 5.8). The\n30 well will be constructed to RCRA standard as per WAC 173-160 and screened at the water table.\n31 Three of the downgradient wells are existing wells (299-E17-22, 299-E17-23, and 299-E17-25) that were\n32 installed as WAC 173-160 compliant wells in 2002. Their location is shown in Figure 5.8. The\n33 remaining two downgradient wells will be installed in a sequence coordinated with the IDF operations.\n34 Three phases of trench construction are assumed for the purposes of this monitoring plan. Excavation for\n35 the first phase is scheduled for September 2004 and a new phase is planned for every ten subsequent\n36 years. Changes in the planned operations of the IDF will be reflected in changes to this groundwater\n37 monitoring plan as needed.\n38 The first new downgradient well will be installed along the eastern side of the facility (Figure 5.8) at least\n39 one year before the IDF receives waste. The second new downgradient well will be installed along the\n40 southern boundary of the Site at least one year before the third phase of waste disposal becomes\n41 operational. Both wells will be installed such that at least one year of background data can be obtained\n42 prior to the associated operational phase becoming active. Figure 5.8 shows the sequence for both\n43 groundwater well construction and waste disposal. The locations of all existing and new wells in the IDF\n44 monitoring network are noted on the figure.\n45\nChapter 5.12\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI The placement of the wells for the IDF monitoring network was based on professional judgment. The\n2 efficiency of the resulting groundwater monitoring network was evaluated using a simple two\n3 dimensional, horizontal transport model called the monitoring efficiency model (MEMO) (Wilson et al.\n4 1992). The model estimates the efficiency of a monitoring network at the point of compliance. The\n5 model simulates a contaminant plume originating from a series of grid points within the disposal facility\n6 using the Domenico-Robbins method (Domenico and Robbins, 1985). The model calculates both\n7 advective flow and dispersive flow in two dimensions and determines whether the resulting plume will be\n8 detected by a monitoring well before the plume travels some selected distance beyond the disposal facility\n9 boundary. The selected distance is termed the buffer zone. (A longitudinal dispersivity of 95 meters and\n10 horizontal dispersivity of 9.5 meters were used to evaluate the monitoring network in Figure 5.8.)\n11 Outputs from the model are the monitoring efficiency and a map of the disposal facility showing areas\n12 where leaks would not be detected under the given site-specific parameters provided as input to the\n13 model. Monitoring efficiency is defined as the ratio of the area within a disposal facility from which a\n14 release likely would be detected to the total area of the disposal facility, expressed as a percentage.\n15 The monitoring efficiency calculated by the MEMO model for the proposed monitoring network is 100%\n16 for phase I, 98% for phase II, and 99% for phase III (Figure 5.8).\n17 All wells for the IDF site will be constructed to meet WAC 173-160 requirements. The wells will be\n18 protected at the surface with a concrete pad, protective posts, a protective outer casing, and locking cap.\n19 The casing and screen will be stainless steel, an appropriate filter pack for the screen slot size will be\n20 used, and an annular seal of bentonite and cement will be emplaced. All wells will be screened at the\n21 water table with 10.6 meter long screens, which will accommodate the greatest possible future decrease in\n22 water level. The wells will be developed and dedicated sampling pumps will be installed.\n23 New wells will be surveyed with a down hole gyroscope at the time of construction to determine any\n24 deviation from vertical so that corrections can be made to subsequent water level measurements.\n25 Gyroscope surveys will also be conducted on existing wells in the network prior to IDF operations.\n26 5.5.2.2 Equipment Decontamination\n27 Drilling equipment will be decontaminated using high temperature and pressure [82oC (1800F) and\n28 greater than 70.3 kg/cm2 (1,000 psi)] washing with an approved cleaning solution. The equipment will be\n29 rinsed with clean water. The procedure is specified in controlled manuals.\n30 Equipment for collecting soil samples during drilling for later chemical analysis and for measuring the\n31 water table will be decontaminated according to established methods. The methods call for washing\n32 equipment with phosphate free detergent, rinsing three times with reverse osmosis/de-ionized water,\n33 rinsing once with IM or 10% nitric acid (glass or stainless steel equipment only), rinsing three more times\n34 with reverse osmosis/de-ionized water, and a final rinse with chromatograph grade hexane. Equipment\n35 will be dried for 50 minutes at 100oC (2120F). After drying, equipment will be wrapped in unused\n36 aluminum foil and sealed with tape.\n37 No decontamination of groundwater sampling equipment will be necessary because each well will have a\n38 dedicated pump.\n39 5.5.2.3 Representative Samples\n40 No groundwater chemistry data specific to the IDF site are available. Sample representativeness will be\n41 addressed after collection of the first year of background data.\n42 5.5.2.4 Locations of Background Groundwater Monitoring Wells that are not Upgradient\n43 All background groundwater monitoring wells at the IDF are located upgradient.\nChapter 5.13\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 5.5.3 Background Values\n2 Groundwater background (baseline) has not been established for the IDF site. Background data will be\n3 determined before construction of the site using the wells described previously (Section 5.5.2.1) for the\n4 use of upgradient vs. downgradient comparisons (Section 5.5.4.7).\n5 5.5.3.1 Plan for Establishing Groundwater Quality Data\n6 Well location, sampling frequency, sampling quantity, and background values are discussed in the\n7 following sections.\n8 5.5.3.1.1 Well Locations\n9 Groundwater monitoring wells in the IDF monitoring network were described in Section 5.5.2.1 and their\n10 locations are shown on Figure 5.8.\n11 5.5.3.1.2 Sampling Frequency\n12 Eight background samples will be collected during the first year of monitoring from phase I wells. Two\n13 samples will be collected quarterly for one year. For the new well needed for phase III operations, two\n14 samples will be collected quarterly for one year before phase III is operational. For all wells, two\n15 independent samples will be collected each quarter, one per month for 2 consecutive months followed by\n16 a month of non-sampling. This sequence will be repeated each quarter during the first year of monitoring.\n17 Section 5.5.3.1.3 provides frequency logic.\n18 5.5.3.1.3 Sampling Quantites\n19 The performance of the statistical method proposed for the IDF is evaluated by the following two goals:\n20 * To have adequate statistical power to detect real contamination when contamination occurs.\n21 * To keep the network wide Type I error (across all constituents and wells being tested) at an\n22 acceptably low level (approximately 5%). [Note that the Type I error in the detection monitoring\n23 stage equates to the false positive rate, that is, the probability that the test will indicate\n24 contamination has occurred although no contamination has truly occurred.]\n25 The statistical power and the network-side false positive rate of a test depend on several factors, including\n26 the background sample size, the type of proposed test, and the number of comparisons. All other factors\n27 being equal, the larger the sample size is (i.e., the number of background samples), the greater the\n28 statistical power is. Therefore, as recommended in EPA/530-R-93-003, at least eight independent\n29 samples will be collected from each well for background purposes. This is a sufficient number of samples\n30 to establish a reliable background (EPA/530-R-93-003) and meets the regulations in\n31 WAC 173-303-645(9)(d).\n32 5.5.3.1.4 Background Values\n33 The default method of analysis of variance (ANOVA) will be used to detect any impact on groundwater\n34 quality at the IDF where the mean of the measurements from compliance (downgradient) wells is\n35 compared to the mean of the distribution of background data from the upgradient wells. The details of the\n36 method are described in Section 5.5.4.7.1.\n37 5.5.4 Sampling, Analysis and Statistical Procedures\n38 Sample collection, sample preservation and transfer/shipment, analytical procedures, chain of custody and\n39 additional requirements for compliance point monitoring are discussed in the following sections.\n40 5.5.4.1 Sample Collection\n41 Groundwater sampling procedures, sample collection documentation, sample preservation and\n42 transfer/shipment, and chain-of-custody requirements are described in subcontractor operating\n43 procedures/manuals and in a quality assurance project plan for the Hanford Groundwater Performance\n44 Assessment Project.\nChapter 5.14\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Quality requirements for sampling activities, including requirements for procedures, containers, transport,\n2 storage, chain of custody, and records requirements, are specified in a statement of work (SOW) to\n3 subcontractors. To ensure that samples of known quality are obtained, the subcontractor will be required\n4 to use contractor controlled procedures based on standard methods for groundwater sampling whenever\n5 possible. The procedures will be reviewed for technical quality and consistency. In addition, periodic\n6 assessments of sample collection activities will be performed to ensure further that procedures are\n7 followed to maintain sample quality and integrity. The following is a brief description of the sampling\n8 requirements.\n9 Samples generally will be collected after three casing volumes of groundwater are withdrawn or after the\n10 field parameters pH, temperature, and specific conductance have stabilized. Field parameters are\n11 measured in a flow through chamber. Turbidity should be equal to or below 5 NTU (nephelometric\n12 turbidity units) before sample collection if possible. Sample preservatives will be added to the collection\n13 bottles in the laboratory before their use in the field. Samples to be analyzed for metals will be filtered in\n14 the field to ensure results represent dissolved metals and do not include particulates (40 CFR 136.3).\n15 Duplicates, trip blanks, and field equipment blanks will be collected as part of the general quality control\n16 program.\n17 Water level measurements will be made each time a well is sampled. Procedures developed in\n18 accordance with the techniques described in American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM 1988),\n19 Garber and Koopman (1968), and U. S. Geological Survey (1977) will be followed to measure water\n20 levels. Water levels will be measured primarily with laminated steel electrical sounding tapes, although\n21 graduated steel tapes are used occasionally.\n22 5.5.4.2 Sample Preservation and Shipment\n23 Sample preservation will be done in accordance with existing procedures. A chemical preservative label\n24 will be affixed to the sample container listing the specific preservative. The brand name, lot number,\n25 concentration, and date opened of the preservatives will be recorded. A calibrated dispenser or pipette\n26 will be used to dispense preservatives. Appropriate measures will be taken to eliminate any potential for\n27 cross contamination.\n28 Sample packaging and transfer/shipping will be done in accordance with subcontract procedures.\n29 Samples will be labeled and sealed with evidence tape, wrapped with bubble wrap, and placed in a\n30 Department of Transportation approved container with coolant (if required). Hazardous samples will\n31 have packaging parameters determined by associated hazards. A chain of custody will accompany all\n32 samples.\n33 5.5.4.3 Analytical Procedures\n34 The methods for analysis of chemical constituents in groundwater will conform to Test Methods for\n35 Evaluating Solid Wastes: Physical/Chemical Methods, 3rd Ed. (SW-846); Methods for Chemical Analysis\n36 of Water and Wastes (EPA-600/4-79-020) or other EPA methods; and the Annual Book ofASTM\n37 Standards (American Society for Testing and Materials, 1986). The methods used to obtain routine data\n38 results are presented in Table 5.4.\n39 5.5.4.3.1 Data Storage and Retrieval\n40 All contract analytical laboratory results will be submitted by the laboratory to be loaded into the Hanford\n41 Environmental Information System (HEIS) database. Most data are received from the laboratory in\n42 electronic form, and will be loaded electronically. Parameters measured in the field will be entered into\n43 HEIS either manually or through electronic transfer. Hard copy data reports are received for records\n44 storage. Data from the HEIS database will be retrieved for data validation, data reduction, and trend\n45 analysis. Copies of supporting analytical data will be sent yearly to Pacific Northwest National\n46 Laboratory (PNNL) for storage.\nChapter 5.15\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 5.5.4.3.2 Data Verification and Validation\n2 Verification of analytical data provided by the subcontracted laboratory will be performed in accordance\n3 with established procedure. This procedure includes checks for: (1) completeness of hardcopy\n4 deliverable, (2) condition of samples on receipt by the laboratory, (3) problems that arose during the\n5 analysis of the samples, and (4) correct reporting of results. The procedure also describes the actions to\n6 be taken if data are incomplete or deficient.\n7 Verification and validation of groundwater chemistry data will be performed according to established\n8 procedures. Data will be reviewed quarterly to assure the data are complete and representative. The\n9 review will include evaluation of quality control data (e.g., field blanks, duplicates, and laboratory blanks)\n10 and a technical review by a project scientist familiar with the hydrogeology of the site. The technical\n11 review might include comparison of recent data to historical trends and comparison of related\n12 constituents. Suspect data will be investigated through the data review process in accordance with\n13 established procedures and will be flagged in the database.\n14 5.5.4.3.3 Reporting\n15 Groundwater chemistry and water level data will be reviewed after each sampling event and will be\n16 available in the HEIS database. The results of the statistical evaluation and associated information will be\n17 submitted to Ecology quarterly in Hanford Site groundwater monitoring reports.\n18 If statistically, significant evidence of contamination is determined (after waste has been introduced to the\n19 facility and after the confirmation re-sampling evaluation process) for one or more of the indicator\n20 parameters at any monitoring well at the compliance point, and if the owner or operator decides not to\n21 make a false positive claim, the following will be performed.\n22 * Notify Ecology in writing within 7 days of the finding indicating which chemical parameters or\n23 dangerous waste constituents have shown statistically significant evidence of contamination.\n24 * Determine whether dangerous constituents are present and, if so, in what concentration.\n25 * The owner or operator might re-sample within I month and repeat the analysis for those\n26 compounds detected in the above (i.e., second bullet). The resample data will be compared with\n27 the trigger value.\n28 * Submit an application for a permit modification, if necessary, to establish a compliance\n29 monitoring program to Ecology in 90 days or within the time agreed to in writing by Ecology.\n30 The dangerous constituents detected, either in the initial analysis or in the second confirmation analysis,\n31 will form the basis for compliance monitoring.\n32 In case of a false positive claim [as allowed by WAC 173-303-645(9)(g)(vi)], the following will apply.\n33 * Notify Ecology in writing within 7 days of the finding (i.e., exceedance) and indicate that a false\n34 positive claim will be made.\n35 * Submit a report to Ecology within 90 days or within the time agreed to in writing by Ecology.\n36 This report should demonstrate that a source other than the regulated unit caused the\n37 contamination or that the contamination resulted from an error in sampling, analysis, evaluation,\n38 or natural variation in groundwater chemistry.\n39 * Submit an application for a permit modification, if necessary, to make any appropriate changes to\n40 the detection monitoring program within 90 days or within the time agreed to in writing by\n41 Ecology.\n42 * Continue to monitor in accordance with the detection monitoring program.\n43 * Submit an application for a permit modification, if the detection monitoring program is\n44 determined to no longer satisfy the requirements [of WAC 173-303-645(9)], to make any\n45 appropriate changes to the program within 90 days or within the time agreed to in writing by\n46 Ecology.\nChapter 5.16\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 5.5.4.4 Chain of Custody\n2 The procedures used for chain-of-custody control of samples are documented in existing manuals. The\n3 procedure requires that each transfer of custody shall be documented by the signatures of the custodian\n4 relinquishing the samples and the custodian receiving the samples, as well as the time and date of transfer.\n5 The laboratory custodian will sign and date the chain-of-custody form upon receipt of the samples at the\n6 laboratory.\n7 5.5.4.5 Additional Requirements for Compliance Point Monitoring\n8 This section describes sampling frequency and determination of groundwater quality for the samples from\n9 the groundwater monitoring network. Compliance data will be compared to baseline data collected from\n10 the upgradient wells and a determination of impacts to groundwater will be made using the proposed\n11 ANOVA method (explained in Section 5.5.4.7.1).\n12 5.5.4.5.1 Sampling Frequency\n13 Under final status regulations, the default sampling procedure states that a sequence of at least four\n14 samples from each well (background and compliance wells) must be collected at least semiannually\n15 during detection monitoring at an interval that ensures, to the greatest extent technically feasible, that an\n16 independent sample is obtained [40 CFR 264.97(g)(1) and (2), WAC 173-303-645(8)(g)(i) and (ii), and\n17 (9)(d)].\n18 The default sampling procedures are adopted for the IDF Active life as follows: four independent samples\n19 from each groundwater monitoring well will be sampled for the indicator parameters (Table 5.2)\n20 semiannually during the active life of the regulated unit (including the closure period), one per month for\n21 four consecutive months followed by two months of non-sampling. The mean of the measurements from\n22 the downgradient wells will be compared semiannually to the mean of the distribution of the background\n23 data using ANOVA.\n24 Semi-annual monitoring has been accomplished at the IDF since January 2007 with the collection of four\n25 independent samples each semiannual period. During the Pre-Active life, sampling will continue at the\n26 IDF with the collection of one sample each year to maintain the baseline. During Active life, sampling\n27 will revert to four independent samples collected each semiannual period described above.\n28 5.5.4.5.2 Compliance Point Groundwater Quality Values\n29 The groundwater quality data collected from the groundwater monitoring wells will be compared to the\n30 mean of the background data from upgradient wells for each constituent by ANOVA. If the mean is\n31 calculated from transformed baseline data (logarithmic transformation or nonparametric approach), then\n32 the monitoring data will be transformed accordingly; otherwise, the original monitoring data will be used\n33 in the comparisons.\n34 During detection monitoring, data verification will be applied in case of an initial exceedance. For\n35 ANOVA test, if the test of hypothesis of equal means for all wells fails, post hoc comparisons are needed\n36 to determine which compliance well(s) is (are) contaminated. This will be done by comparing\n37 concentration differences (called contrasts in the ANOVA and multiple comparison framework) between\n38 each compliance well with the background wells (EPA/530-SW-89-026). If the contaminated compliance\n39 well(s) is (are) determined by post hoc comparisons, verification sampling will be implemented for the\n40 constituent(s) in question. Verification sampling is needed to determine if the exceedance is an artifact\n41 caused by an error in sampling, analysis, or statistical evaluation or an actual variation in groundwater\n42 chemistry. A collection of at least four measurements from the re-sampled compliance well(s) is required\n43 to perform ANOVA test on comparison with the mean of the background data (EPA/530-R-93-003).\n44 Adequate time should elapse to ensure statistical independence between the original measurements and\n45 the re-sample measurements, which is assured by the sampling frequency proposed in Section 5.5.4.5.1.\n46 The existing nitrate plume beneath the IDF site is described in Section 5.4.1. Nitrate is not included in\n47 IDF Part A Form and, therefore, is not a constituent of concern for the IDF.\nChapter 5.17\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 Existing groundwater conditions will be monitored by the indicator parameters and supplemental\n2 constituents as described in Section 5.5.1. Specific conductance will respond to nitrate so that any\n3 changes in the nitrate concentration will be reflected by changes in the indicator parameter specific\n4 conductance.\n5 Anion analysis is one of the supplemental constituents to be monitored at the IDF site. Anion analysis\n6 will determine the nitrate concentration. Therefore, through comparison of regression lines of specific\n7 conductance and nitrate (Zar,1999) and/or contaminant source analysis (Gibbons, 1994), it can be\n8 determined whether any change in specific conductance is due to a change in nitrate. If a change in\n9 specific conductance is due to a change in nitrate, then that specific conductance change is not attributed\n10 to the IDF. If, however, a statistically significant change in specific conductance is not attributable to\n11 nitrate, verification sampling will occur as described above.\n12 5.5.4.6 Annual Determination\n13 Groundwater flow rate and flow direction at the IDF site will be determined annually for the uppermost\n14 aquifer. Flow rate will be determined by calculation using the groundwater gradient, and the Darcy flow\n15 equation, vh = Khih/ne, where Vh is the horizontal groundwater velocity, Kh is the horizontal hydraulic\n16 conductivity, ih is the horizontal hydraulic gradient, and ne is the effective porosity. Effective porosities\n17 used at Hanford Site RCRA regulated units are on the order of 0.1 to 0.3 (PNNL-14187, 1 of 2, 2 of 2);\n18 effective porosity might be determined specifically for the IDF from hydrologic tests.\n19 Hydraulic gradients will be determined from measurements of water levels.\n20 5.5.4.7 Statistical Determination\n21 This section describes the method of statistical evaluation and the statistical procedures to indicate\n22 whether dangerous waste or dangerous waste constituents from the IDF might have entered the\n23 groundwater in the uppermost aquifer. These evaluations will be made as soon as practicable after\n24 validation of the full data set from each sampling event.\n25 The monitoring program periodically will re-evaluate the statistical tests being used. The methods\n26 described will be reviewed during and after background, data are collected to ensure the methods are the\n27 most appropriate, considering site conditions.\n28 The goal of a RCRA final status detection-monitoring program [WAC 173-303-645(9)] is to monitor for\n29 indicator parameters that provide a reliable indication of the presence of dangerous constituents in\n30 groundwater in the uppermost aquifer beneath the site. This is accomplished by testing for statistically\n31 significant changes in concentrations of indicators in downgradient wells relative to baseline values. The\n32 default statistical method ANOVA is proposed for the detection monitoring program of the IDF. The\n33 proposed statistical method is consistent with EPA/530-SW-89-026, EPA/530-R-93-003, and\n34 WAC 173-303-645.\n35 The number of tested constituents will be limited to the indicators to maintain a sufficiently low false-\n36 positive rate (EPA/530-R-93-003, page 62; Gibbons 1994, page 16). Verification sampling is an integral\n37 part of the statistical design to lower the overall false-positive rate and determine whether the difference\n38 between background and compliance-point data is an artifact caused by an error in sampling, analysis, or\n39 statistical evaluation (Section 5.5.4.5.2).\n40 5.5.4.7.1 Statistical Procedure\n41 In accordance with WAC 173-303-645(8)(h), acceptable statistical methodology includes analysis of\n42 variance (ANOVA), tolerance intervals, prediction intervals, control charts, test of proportions, or other\n43 statistical methods approved by Ecology. The type of monitoring, the nature of the data, the proportions\n44 of non-detects, and spatial and temporal variations are some of the important factors to be considered in\n45 the selection of appropriate statistical methods. The EPA default method ANOVA will be implemented\n46 for the IDF site to compare the differences of means of the measurements from upgradient and\n47 downgradient wells.\nChapter 5.18\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The detailed discussions of the ANOVA test can be found in EPA/530-SW-89-026 and statistical\n2 textbooks (Gilbert, 1987; Casella and Berger. 1990; Davis, 2002), and can be executed using commercial\n3 statistical software such as SAS or SYSTAT. Under WAC 173-303-645(8)(i)(ii), the proposed statistical\n4 method must comply with the performance standard, that is, for a multiple comparisons procedure the\n5 Type I error level must be no less than 0.05, and maintained at the level of no less than 0.01 for individual\n6 well comparisons. By definition, Type I error is the false rejection rate of the null hypothesis (Ho) of the\n7 statistical test. In detection or compliance monitoring, the statistical test is defined as Ho: no release, i.e.,\n8 the means of the distributions from upgradient and downgradient wells are the same, and the alternative\n9 (Ha) evidence of release, e.g., \"clean until proven contaminated\" (EPA/530-R-93-003). Therefore, the\n10 proposed statistical method must comply with the requirement of maintaining Type I error, which equates\n11 false positive rate in the stage of detection monitoring at approximate 5% level. As described in\n12 EPA/530-SW-89-026, ANOVA procedures have the advantages of combining multiple downgradient into\n13 a single statistical test, thus enabling the network-wide false positive rate for any single constituent (not\n14 multiple constituents) to be kept at 5 percent, and also maintain reasonable power for detecting\n15 contamination.\n16 The details of the ANOVA procedures are described as follows (EPA/530-SW-89-026):\n17 * First, check the proportion of non-detects of the measurements from the upgradient and\n18 downgradient wells. When the proportion of non-detects is less than 15%, the non-detects will be\n19 reported as one-half the minimum detection limit or practical quantitation limit, and proceed with\n20 parametric ANOVA analysis. When the proportion of non-detects is greater than 15%,\n21 non-parametric ANOVA analysis will be used for comparing the means of downgradient and\n22 upgradient wells.\n23 * Evaluate the distributions of the measurements from the upgradient and downgradient wells. The\n24 assumptions with parametric ANOVA test are the residuals are normally distributed with equal\n25 variance. The normality of the distribution the residuals can be checked using coefficient of\n26 variation, plotting the data on probability plot, and/or Shapiro-Wilk's test (EPA/530-SW-89-026;\n27 Gibbons, 1994). The assumption of normality usually can be met by log-transforming the data or\n28 by other Box-Cox transformations. When the assumptions of normality and lognormality cannot\n29 be justified, the non-parametric ANOVA method will be used for the IDF. Bartlett's test can be\n30 used in checking equality, or homogeneity, of variances.\n31 * The parametric ANOVA procedures include:\n32 * Assume a monitoring network with k wells, and total number of observations N. First,\n33 compute well total, well mean, and well residuals (observations subtracted by well mean) for\n34 each well, and grand total and mean of all observations (all wells). The well residuals are\n35 used to check the assumption of normality.\n36 * Compute the sum of squares of difference between well means and the grand mean, SSwells\n37 that is a measure of the variability between wells with (k-1) degrees of freedom.\n38 * Compute the total sum of squares of differences between all observations and the grand\n39 mean, SStotal, which is a measure of the variability in all observations with (N-1) degrees of\n40 freedom.\n41 * Compute the sum of squares of differences of observations within wells from the well means,\n42 SSerror, which is a measure of the variability within wells with (N-k) degrees of freedom\n43 calculated by the following subtraction:\n44 SSnor = SStotal -SSwells\n45 * Test the hypothesis of equal means for all k wells by computing F value with the means\n46 squares of differences:\n47 F = MSwells / MSeor\nChapter 5.19\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 where the means of squares are the sums of squares divided by the associated degrees of\n2 freedom, that is, MSwenls = SSwelns / (k-1), and MSerror = SSerror / (N-k). Compare the F value to\n3 the tabulated F statistics with (k-1) and (N-k) degress of freedom at the 5% significance level\n4 (EPA/530-SW 89-026, Appendix B, Table 2). If the calculated F value exceeds the tabulated\n5 F statistics, the null hypothesis of equal well means is rejected. Proceed with test of contrasts\n6 in the next step. Otherwise, the hypothesis of equal means is accepted that there is no\n7 significant difference between the concentrations at k wells (upgradient and downgradient\n8 wells), that is, no evidence of contamination.\n9 * If the hypothesis of equal well means is rejected, contrasts (concentration differences between a\n10 compliance well and background wells) will be tested for each compliance well to determine\n11 which compliance well(s) is (are) contaminated. Bonferroni t-statistics will be computed to\n12 determine if the significant F value is due to difference between background and compliance\n13 wells. Assume that of the k wells, kb are background (upgradient) wells, and kc are compliance\n14 (downgradient) wells (i.e., kb + k, = k). Each of the k, compliance wells is compared to the mean\n15 of the background wells as the following steps:\n16 * Compute the mean mb from the kb background wells with a total of nb samples.\n17 * Compute the difference D, between the mean from the i' compliance well and the mean from\n18 the background wells.\n19 * Compute the standard error of the difference from the i' compliance well with ni observations\n20 as:\n21 SEi= [MSrror (1/nb + /Di)1\n22 where MSerror is computed previously as the measure of variability within wells.\n23 * Obtain the t-statistics from Bonferroni's t-table (EPA/530-SW-89-026, Appendix B, Table 3)\n24 with a significance level of (u=0.05/ke) but no less than 0.01 (for individual comparison) and\n25 (N-k) degrees of freedom. The critical value for the il compliance well is defined as Ci = SEi\n26 x t.\n27 * If the difference Di exceeds the critical value Ci, conclude that the mean of the i' compliance\n28 well is significantly higher than the mean of the background wells. Otherwise, conclude that\n29 the well is not contaminated.\n30 * The one-way non-parametric ANOVA tests the null hypothesis that the data from each well come\n31 from the same continuous distribution and hence have the same median. The procedures, called\n32 the Kruskal-Wallis test, include the following steps:\n33 * Assume the monitoring network as defined previously with a total of N observations from k\n34 wells (kb background wells and kc compliance wells). Rank all N observations from least (1)\n35 to greatest (N). Let the background wells be group 1, and denote the compliance wells as\n36 group 2 to (kc+1). (one group per compliance well).\n37 * Compute the sum (Ri) and the average (mi) of the ranks of the ni observations in the ith\n38 group.\n39 * Compute the Kruskal-Wallis statistics (H) as\n40 H 2 -3(N + 1)\nN (N + 1I) i= n1\n41 * Compare the calculated H value to the tabulated chi-squared value with kc degrees of freedom\n42 (EPA/530-SW-89-026, Appendix B, Table 1). The null hypothesis of equal medians is rejected\n43 when the calculated H value exceeds the tabulated critical value.\nChapter 5.20\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * When the null hypothesis of equal medians is rejected, compute the critical difference Ci for\n2 each compliance well to the background data (group 1 with nb observations):\n3 C, = Z(0 05 / kc) N(N+1) 1 ]1/2\n12 nb i,\n4 Where Z(O.05/ kc) is the upper (0.05/kc) percentile from the standard normal distribution\n5 (EPA/530-SW-89-026, Appendix B, Table 4). If there are more than five compliance wells\n6 (k; > 5), use Zool, the upper one-percentile from the standard normal distribution (Zo o=2.32) for\n7 individual comparison (WAC 173-303-645(8)(i)(ii)).\n8 * Compute the difference (Di = mi -mi) of average rank mi (i=2 to kc+1) for each compliance well\n9 to the background (mi). Compare the difference Di to the critical value Ci for each compliance\n10 well. If Di exceeds Ci, conclude that the median of the il compliance well is significantly higher\n11 than the background median.\n12 * As monitoring continues, the background data will be updated periodically (e.g., every year or\n13 two) to incorporate the new data from upgradient wells. This updating process will continue for\n14 the life of the monitoring program. Prior to updating older background data with more recent\n15 results, a two-sample t-test will be run to compare the older concentration levels with the\n16 concentrations of the proposed update samples. If the t-test does not show a significant difference\n17 at the 5 percent significant level, proceed to re-estimate the baseline parameters by including the\n18 more recent data. If the t-test does show a significant difference, the newer data will not be\n19 included as background unless some specific factors can be, identified explaining why\n20 background levels at the IDF site have naturally changed (EPA/530-R93-003).\n21 Formal testing for outliers will be done when an observation of the background data seems inconsistently\n22 high (by orders of magnitude) compared to the rest of the data set in order to avoid the artificial increase\n23 of the mean of the background data and a corresponding increase of the false negative rate. Statistical\n24 methods such as the Grubbs' method (Grubbs, 1969), the box-and-whisker plot (Ostle and Malone, 1988),\n25 EPA guidance (EPA/530-SW-89-026, p. 11-14) and/or American Society for Testing and Materials\n26 guidance (ASTM 1996) will be used for testing outliers. The outliers must be checked to determine if the\n27 measurements are in error and need to be corrected or excluded from calculating the background mean. If\n28 no specific error is found, the measurements must be retained in the data.\n29 A statistically significant exceedance over background (baseline) levels only indicates that the new\n30 measurement in a particular monitoring well for a particular constituent is inconsistent with chance\n31 expectations based on the available sample of background (baseline) measurements. Any statistical result\n32 must be supported by other information to determine if a waste disposal facility has impacted\n33 groundwater (ASTM 1996).\n34 5.5.4.7.2 Results\n35 Sampling and analysis results are reviewed at least semiannually (i.e., after each sampling event) and are\n36 available in HEIS. The DOE will submit results of statistical evaluations to Ecology.\n37 5.5.5 Compliance Monitoring Program\n38 A compliance monitoring program that satisfies requirements set forth in WAC 173-303-645(10) will be\n39 established for the IDF if detection-level monitoring reveals statistically significant evidence of dangerous\n40 waste contamination from sources within the regulated unit. If compliance monitoring is required, DOE\n41 will submit a revised monitoring plan to Ecology specifying dangerous constituents to be monitored,\n42 sampling and analysis protocols, statistical evaluation methods, etc. In the compliance monitoring\n43 program, the dangerous constituents or parameters will be compared to concentration limits specified in\n44 the facility permit as discussed in WAC 173-303-645(5) during the compliance period.\nChapter 5.21\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 The RCRA regulations [WAC 173-303-645(9)(g)] state that if a statistical exceedance occurs in a\n2 downgradient well, the entire network immediately must be resampled and analyzed for the constituents\n3 in Appendix IX of 40 CFR 264. This sampling would be conducted in parallel with a required permit\n4 modification. Appendix IX is an extensive list including a wide variety of volatile and semivolatile\n5 organic compounds and trace metals. It is prudent to narrow the analyte list to the specific exceedance\n6 event; e.g., if the exceeding contaminant is total organic halides, the project would analyze for the\n7 halogenated hydrocarbons most likely to be present in the area. Results of the resampling will form the\n8 basis for returning to detection monitoring or designing a compliance monitoring program.\n9 5.5.6 Corrective Action Program\n10 If, at a point of compliance (a well), dangerous constituents of concern are measured in the groundwater\n11 at concentrations that exceed the applicable groundwater concentration limit, Ecology must be notified in\n12 7 days, and an application to modify the permit to include a corrective action plan must be sent to\n13 Ecology within 90 days or within the time agreed to by Ecology. A description of the groundwater\n14 monitoring plan, including all additional corrective actions that are appropriate for a corrective action\n15 program will be prepared and submitted to Ecology when the need for corrective action first is identified.\nChapter 5.22\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n200 East Area\nO0\nE\n299-E28-17 0\n200-E24-4\n*299-E23-1\n4th Street 299-E23-2\n0299-E24-21\n20_-E24-7 299-E24-17\n299-E24-16\n299-E18-3 -41 * 299-1 7-9\nS2 299-E29 E *299-E17-14 299-El 8-2 p'299-El 7-20\n* -299-E18-4 299-E17-22. 299-E17-17\n299-E18-1 299-El7-1340 *0299-E17-16\n299-El 9-1 299-E17-12 299-E17-18\n99-E17-25--J : C29-El 7-210 0 0299-E17-23\n699-E37-47A\nIntegrated Disposal\n299-E13-14 Facility Site0 299-E13-10\n*Groundwater 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 meters\nMonitoring Well I I I\n0 1000 2000 3000 4000 feet\nG03100106-1\nFigure 5.1.

For all organics (except carbon tetrachloride), the calculation assumes an organic carbon content\n6 for Hanford Site soil of 1.0%. The value of organic carbon assumed is conservative recognizing that the organic carbon content\n7 of most Hanford Site soil falls considerably below this value. However, applying this level of conservatism also recognizes that\n8 mineral-driven sorption likely plays a role in organic constituent mobility for Hanford Site soils with organic carbon content at or\n9 below 0.1% (PNNL-13560). A calculation of a Kd value using acetonitrile as an example is as follows. The literature estimated\n10 value of Koc for acetonitrile is 16 (Howard 1993).\n11 Kd = c X Koc where foc= the mass fraction of organic carbon in the soil.\n12 Kd (acetonitrile) = 0.01 X 16 = 0.16.\n13 2 Creosote is a coal tar distillate containing high quantities of naphthalene and anthracene (Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1993).\n14 ' Because creosote is predominately a mixture of naphthalene and anthracene (footnote 2), assumed Koc values for naphthalene\n15 (Howard 1989) and anthracene (Mackay et al., Volume II) in calculating a Kd range for creosote.\n16 4 This constituent has a low octanol/water partition coefficient indicating that its adsorption to soil would be low (Howard,\n17 Volume II, 1990)\n18\nChapter 5.33\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nTable 5.4.

The requirements in this chapter that\n5 address activities involving the receipt and disposal of dangerous waste as defined in WAC 173-303-040\n6 shall be applied during the Active Life of the IDF. Active Life of a facility means the period from the\n7 initial receipt of dangerous waste at the facility until the department receives certification of final closure\n8 (WAC 173-303-040). The requirements of this chapter that do not apply to receipt and disposal of\n9 dangerous waste as defined in WAC 173-303-040, shall be implemented by the Permittees during the\n10 Pre-Active Life of IDF. Pre-Active Life is not defined in the regulations, but refers to the facility\n11 maintenance period between final construction and the start of Active Life.\n12 The IDF is designed and will be operated to minimize exposure of the general public and operating\n13 personnel to disposed waste. Shielding, contamination control, control of toxic or dangerous material,\n14 and safety and security procedures will be used to keep exposure as low as reasonably achievable\n15 (ALARA).\n16 6.1 Security\n17 The following sections describe the security measures, equipment, and warning signs to be used to control\n18 entry to the IDF. A discussion of Hanford Facility security is provided in Attachment 33, Section 6.1.\n19 6.1.1 Security Procedures and Equipment\n20 The following sections describe the 24-hour surveillance system, barrier, and warning signs to be used to\n21 provide security and control access to the IDF.\n22 6.1.1.1 24-Hour Surveillance System\n23 The Hanford Facility is a controlled-access area [refer to Attachment 33, Section 6.1].\n24 6.1.1.2 Barrier and Means to Control Entry\n25 Because the IDF is located within the portion of the Hanford Facility controlled by the 24-hour\n26 surveillance system, WAC 173-303-310(2)(c) does not apply.\n27 6.1.1.3 Warning Signs\n28 Signs will be visible from all angles of approach, and legible from a distance of at least 7.6 meters. Each\n29 active area used for disposal will be posted with a sign, in English, reading, DANGER-UNA UTHORIZED\n30 PERSONNEL KEEP OUT or an equivalent legend.\n31 6.1.2 Waiver\n32 A waiver of the security procedures and equipment requirements for the IDF was not requested.\n33 Therefore, the requirements of WAC 173-303-3 10(1)(a) and (b) are not applicable.\n34 6.2 Inspection Plan\n35 This section describes the method and schedule for inspections of the IDF. These inspections help to\n36 ensure that situations do not exist that might cause or lead to the release of waste to the environment,\n37 degradation of safety equipment and/or systems, or that might pose a threat to human health. Abnormal\n38 conditions identified by inspections must be corrected.\n39 6.2.1 General Inspection Requirements\n40 The content and frequency of inspections are described in this section. Inspection discrepancies are\n41 documented on inspection checklists and log sheets. The schedule and inspection records will be kept in\n42 the inspection logbooks and retained by the IDF operations personnel. Inspection records will be retained\n43 in accordance with Permit Condition 11.1.1 and contain the following information:\nChapter 6.5\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 * Date and time of inspection.\n2 * Printed name and the hand written signature of the inspector.\n3 * Notation of the observations made.\n4 * An account of spills or discharges in accordance with WAC 173-303-145.\n5 * Date and nature of any repairs or remedial actions taken.\n6 The inspection checklists consist of a listing of items that are assessed during each inspection. A yes/no\n7 response will be made for each listed item. A 'yes' response means that the item is in compliance with the\n8 conditions stated on the checklist. Any problems identified during the inspection, as indicated by a 'no'\n9 response on the checklist, will be reported immediately to the IDF operations supervisor.\n10 6.2.1.1 Types of Problems\n11 Types of problems looked for during an inspection in Pre-Active Life are in Table 6.2. Types of\n12 problems looked for during an inspection in Active Life are in Table 6.3. Once the IDF begins to receive\n13 dangerous waste, the requirements in Table 6.2 are no longer applicable. Each day mixed waste\n14 containers and/or bulk waste are handled within the IDF; an operator will perform a daily inspection of\n15 areas subject to spills (e.g., loading and unloading areas and waste handling areas).\n16 6.2.1.2 Frequency of Inspections\n17 Table 6.2 provides inspection frequencies during the Pre-Active Life. Tables 6.1, 6., and 6.3 provide\n18 inspection frequencies during the Active Life. For clarification, areas with operations that may result in\n19 spills are described below\n20 Each step in the waste placement operation occurs in the landfill over the double High Density\n21 Polyethylene (HDPE) liner system that provides containment of any spill from the waste handling\n22 operation.\n23 Waste Handling Operations involve the following:\n24 * Unloading of the waste shipment in the landfill Placement of the cover soil over the waste\n25 container\n26 During Active Life leachate,1 movement occurs within the double-contained leachate handling\n27 system. There is a potential for a leachate spill on the concrete containment slab of the Crest Pad\n28 Building, Leachate Transfer Building, and/or the Leachate Loading Truck Pad.\n29 Leachate Handling Operations involve the following:\n30 * Pumping leachate from the collection sumps to the Crest Pad Building.\n31 * Activities within the Crest Pad Building.\n32 * Transfer of leachate to and from the double-lined Leachate Tanks.\n33 * All activities that occur in the Leachate Transfer Building.\n34 * Pumping of leachate to a tanker truck on the Truck Loading Pad.\n35 Liquid handling operations involve the following:\n36 * The Secondary Leak Detection System (SLDS) is similar to the Leak Detection System (LDS),\n37 except that it is equipped with liquid level indication instrumentation only. A low-capacity\n38 submersible pump can be inserted into the SLDS sump if required. Pumping of liquid from the\n39 collection sump to the small, portable container on the SLDS Pad may be required. Collected\n40 liquid in the SLDS that may be construction water and/or liquid from other sources.\nWAC 173-303-040 defines \"Leachate\" as any liquid, including any components suspended in the liquid that has percolated\nthrough or drained from dangerous waste.\nChapter 6.6\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI (Note that the secondary leak detection system is not a design requirement of WAC 173-303-665,\n2 however United States Department of Energy (DOE) has added the design feature pursuant to its\n3 authority under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (AEA) and not for the purposes of compliance with the\n4 dangerous waste regulations. Therefore, information regarding the design, construction, and operation of\n5 the SLDS is provided for information only. Pursuant to AEA, DOE has sole and exclusive responsibility\n6 and authority to regulate the source, special nuclear and by-product material component of radioactive\n7 mixed waste at DOE-owned nuclear facilities. Source, special nuclear and by-product materials, as\n8 defined by AEA, are not subject to regulation under Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) or\n9 the Hazardous Waste Management Act, by the State of Washington and are not be subject to State\n10 dangerous waste permit, orders, or any other enforceable instrument issued there under. DOE recognizes\n11 that radionuclide data may be useful in the development and confirmation of geohydrologic conceptual\n12 models. Radionuclide data contained herein is therefore provided as a matter of comity so the\n13 information may be used for such purposes).\n14 6.2.2 Schedule for Remedial Action for Problems Revealed\n15 The operating organization will remedy any problems revealed by the inspection on a schedule that\n16 prevents hazards to human health and the environment. Where a hazard is imminent or already has\n17 occurred immediate action will be taken. Immediate actions will be implemented based on ALARA\n18 considerations, availability of supplies, equipment, and personnel.\n19 6.2.3 Specific Process or Waste Type Inspection Requirements\n20 The following sections detail the inspections to be performed at the IDF.\n21 6.2.3.1 Container Inspection\n22 On receipt, operations personnel will confirm appropriate documentation by inspecting each mixed\n23 wasted container for disposal and compliance with the container receipt inspection criteria (Chapter 3.0)\n24 before the mixed waste is placed in the IDF.\n25 If present, off-specification waste and vitrified waste requiring cooling in storage will be subject to the\n26 specific items and/or problems noted during weekly container inspection (Table 6.1) include the\n27 following:\n28 * Condition of trench floor and sides.\n29 * Container structural integrity.\n30 * Containers closed.\n31 * At a minimum, 76.2 centimeters aisle spacing.\n32 * Corrosion of containers.\n33 * Evidence of spills or leaks.\n34 * Container labels and markings in place, legible, and unobscured.\n35 * Areas in and around stored waste are free of combustibles (e.g., tumbleweeds).\n36 * Waste separations such as tape, rope, chain or other cordon mechanism are intact.\n37 If present, transport vehicles containing off specification waste or vitrified waste requiring cooling will be\n38 subject to the specific items and/or problems noted during weekly inspection include the following:\n39 * Transport vehicle structural integrity.\n40 * At a minimum, 76.2 centimeters aisle spacing between transporters.\n41 * Evidence of spills or leaks.\n42 * Areas in and around transport vehicles are free of combustibles (e.g. tumbleweeds).\n43 * Separations such as tape, rope, chain or other cordon mechanism are intact.\nChapter 6.7\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nI Transport vehicles will not be subject to an individual container inspection within the transporter.\n2 Records of inspection will be maintained as detailed in Section 6.2.1.\n3 6.2.3.2 Landfill Inspection\n4 The IDF will be inspected according to the frequencies in Table 6.2 during Pre-Active Life and in\n5 accordance with Table 6.3 during Active Life.\n6 6.2.3.2.1 Run-on and Runoff Control System\n7 A run-on control system is installed around the perimeter of each lined trench (Chapter 4.0). The system\n8 consists of a berm along the outer margin of each trench that prevents run-on from entering the trench.\n9 All run-on control system berms are inspected quarterly (Table 6.2) and after storms for signs of\n10 deterioration, malfunction, or improper operation. During Active Life, any precipitation that falls\n11 between the run-on control berm and the edge of the trench excavation eventually might flow into the\n12 primary leachate control and removal system sump and will be treated as leachate.\n13 6.2.3.2.2 Leak Detection System\n14 During pre-active life, the leak detection system will be monitored quarterly and after storms (Table 6.2)\n15 for the amount of liquid removed. To calculate the action leakage rate, measurements are needed to be\n16 collected over five consecutive days each quarter. The action leakage rate will be determined for the\n17 quarter using these measurements collected during one five day work week each quarter.\n18 During Active life (Table 6.3), leak detection for lined trench at the IDF is accomplished by the\n19 following:\n20 * Monitoring liquid level above the secondary liner.\n21 * Monitoring liquid levels above primary liner.\n22 * Inspecting for the presence of liquids after significant precipitation events.\n23 * Verifying certain gauges and instruments are in current calibration; calibration is performed\n24 annually or more frequently at intervals suggested by the manufacturer (Chapter 4.0,\n25 Section 4.3.7.4).\n26 * Recording secondary sump levels on a daily action leakage rate calculation sheet (Figure 6.1).\n27 If the action leakage rate (Chapter 4.0, Appendix 4C) has not been exceeded, the liner system will be\n28 functioning properly.\n29 6.2.3.2.3 Wind Dispersal Control System\n30 During pre-active life, berms will be inspected quarterly and after storms to ensure the berms are\n31 functioning properly (Table 6.2).\n32 During active life (Table 6.3), waste is inspected on receipt for evidence of damage, corrosion, or\n33 deterioration that might lead to dispersal of the contents.\n34 Unpackaged or bulk waste with any potential for wind dispersal is covered or sprayed with fixative after\n35 being placed in a trench.\n36 In addition, unpackaged or bulk waste handling operations are suspended in winds exceeding\n37 24 kilometers per hour unless specifically approved by operations supervisors. The supervisor only\n38 would grant approval to operate in winds over 24 kilometers per hour after determining that the risk to\n39 human health or the environment would be diminished by completing the work activity, or that the nature\n40 and form of the waste handling activity was such that the wind speed would have no significant impact.\n41 6.2.3.2.4 Leachate Collection and Removal System\n42 During pre-active life, the Leachate Collection and Removal System is inspected quarterly and after\n43 storms (Table 6.2) for the presence of liquids, and that the system is functioning properly.\nChapter 6.8\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 During active-life (Table 6.3), Liquids in the Leachate Collection and Removal System and Leak\n2 Detection System are monitored daily to ensure the action leakage rate (Chapter 4.0, Appendix 4A) is not\n3 exceeded and will be inspected per Table 6.2. In addition, a flow meter is used to check if the amount of\n4 actual leachate pumped corresponds to the amount accumulated in the leachate collection tank. This\n5 check will verify the proper function of the leachate collection and removal sump pumps with each use.\n6 6.3 Preparedness and Prevention Requirements\n7 Section 6.3.1 describes the preparedness and prevention measures to be implemented during Pre-Active\n8 Life. Sections 6.3.2 through 6.3.7 describe the preparedness and prevention measures taken at the IDF\n9 during Active Life.\n10 6.3.1 Pre-Active Life Preparedness and Prevention\n11 During Pre-Active Life, the Permittees will comply with Permit Attachment 4, Hanford Emergency\n12 Management Plan (DOE/RL-94-02) as applicable for a facility that does not contain dangerous waste. An\n13 emergency coordinator will be assigned to IDF who will manage and control all aspects of the initial\n14 facility response when an emergency occurs.\n15 6.3.2 Equipment Requirements\n16 The following sections describe the internal and external communications systems and the emergency\n17 equipment required.\n18 6.3.3 Internal Communication\n19 There is one building, MO-518, equipped to support communications. Immediate emergency instruction\n20 to personnel working at the IDF will be provided by cellular telephones.\n21 6.3.4 External Communications\n22 Personnel at the IDF will have voice communication or equivalent (e.g., hand signals) during work\n23 assignments to maintain external communications with shift supervisors. Supervision will contact the\n24 Hanford Facility emergency telephone number (911) (373-3800 for cellular telephones) if assistance is\n25 needed in the field.\n26 6.3.5 Emergency Equipment\n27 Emergency equipment will be available for use at the IDF. A list of equipment is included in the\n28 contingency plan (Addendum J. 1, Pre-Active Life, and Addendum J.2, Active Life).\n29 The Hanford Facility relies primarily on the Hanford Fire Department to control fires. Emergency\n30 equipment will not be located at IDF trenches. Portable fire extinguishers will be carried on IDF\n31 operations vehicles. Attachment 4, Hanford Emergency Management Plan, (DOE/RL-94-02) identifies\n32 the trained firefighting and emergency medical personnel and equipment.\n33 6.3.6 Water for Fire Control\n34 * Hanford Fire Department trucks as described in Permit Attachment 4, Hanford Emergency\n35 Management Plan, (DOE/RL-94-02); and fire hydrants described in Addendum J.1 and\n36 Addendum J.2 supply water for fire control at the IDF.\n37 6.3.7 Aisle Spacing Requirements for Off-Specification Waste\n38 Aisle spacing during off-specification and cooling vitrified waste storage operations is sufficient to allow\n39 the movement of personnel and fire protection equipment in and around the containers. This aisle spacing\n40 meets the requirements of WAC 173-303-340(3). Inspection aisle space must be at least 76.2 centimeters.\n41 During off-specification storage operations, rows of containers are placed no more than two containers\n42 wide in accordance with WAC 173-303-630(5)(c). Aisle spacing requirements will be applied to\n43 transport vehicles but not to the waste within the transport vehicles.\nChapter 6.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.4 Preventive Procedures, Structures, and Equipment\n2 The following sections will apply during the Active Life for the IDF and describe preventive procedures,\n3 structures, and equipment.\n4 6.4.1 Unloading Operations\n5 Methods used to prevent release of waste during unloading operations will be employed as follows.\n6 * Waste will be inspected according to the receipt inspection criteria (Chapter 3.0).\n7 o If waste fails the inspection, it will be designated as an off-specification waste and could be\n8 placed in the storage area or returned to the generator.\n9 * Containers and bulk waste will be handled by appropriate equipment (i.e., crane) during\n10 unloading.\n11 * Path from loading area to trench area will be clear of obstructions.\n12 Spills will be managed as identified in the contingency plan (Addendum J.2).\n13 Containers and bulk waste will be staged at the waste unloading area no longer than necessary for\n14 placement into the landfill. Administrative procedures may prevent immediate unloading and backfilling\n15 of waste containers. Containers might be left in the transporters as needed to resolve the administrative\n16 procedure requirements or to support the operational schedule before containers are placed into the\n17 landfill. The transfer vehicle containing vitrified waste requiring cooling may be temporarily placed in\n18 the storage area prior to unloading for disposal.\n19 6.4.2 Runoff\n20 The waste in the IDF will be placed below the land surface; thus, the IDF is designed to prevent run-off of\n21 precipitation that might have come in contact with the waste. The land surface is relatively level, so\n22 trenches have only internal drainage. The minimal amounts of precipitation that accumulate are\n23 contained within the trench.\n24 The IDF trench is designed to channel run-on liquid away from the trench. Precipitation that percolates to\n25 the bottom of the trench is captured in the leachate collection system and is managed as rainwater during\n26 Pre Active Life. During Active Life, these liquids will be managed as multi-source leachate waste.\n27 6.4.3 Water Supplies\n28 The design and operation of the IDF during Active Life is intended to minimize the generation of\n29 potentially contaminated leachate and to prevent leachate migration into groundwater resources in the\n30 local area. All activities performed during Active Life (Chapter 4.0) or Pre-active Life is designed to\n31 protect local water supplies.\n32 Activities that prevent contamination of water supplies or groundwater will include the following:\n33 * Placement of waste in lined trenches\n34 o Run-on and run-off will be controlled\n35 o Leak detection systems will be used\n36 o Leachate will be collected and managed as waste\n37 o Inspections will be performed\n38 * Placement of backfill will occur after a layer of waste has been placed in the trench.\n39 6.4.4 Equipment and Power Failure\n40 Electrical power is required for the landfill. Electricity supplies power to the sump pumps used to remove\n41 accumulated leachate from the primary and secondary liners. Electricity outages will be restored as soon\n42 as possible. Backup equipment will be acquired if necessary to provide electrical service. Failed\n43 equipment will be repaired or replaced as soon as possible.\nChapter 6.10\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 6.4.5 Personal Protection Equipment\n2 Personnel will be trained in the use of applicable personal protection equipment. The protective clothing\n3 required for Active Life will vary depending on the form and content of the waste.\n4 6.5 Prevention of Reaction of Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Waste\n5 The waste acceptance criteria will prohibit the disposal of ignitable, reactive, and incompatible waste at\n6 the IDF. Waste acceptance criteria (Chapter 3.0) will ensure that the required treatment has been\n7 performed before the waste is disposed in the IDF.\n8 Waste stream compatibility (i.e., compatibility between individual waste streams and compatibility\n9 between waste streams and landfill design and construction parameters) will be assessed on a case-by-\n10 case basis. Criteria for assessing and determining compatibility will be identified in either the facility\n11 Waste Acceptance Criteria, Waste Analysis Plan, or other protocol or procedure as appropriate\n12 (Chapter 3.0) for further discussion of waste stream compatibility.\n13\nChapter 6.11\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nAVERAGE DAILY ACTION LEAKAGE RATE CALCULATION\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nOperating Day / / Gallons\nSecondary Sump Total Volume TOTAL _ Gallons\n(DIVIDE TOTAL VOLUME BY 7)\nAVERAGE DAILY ACTION LEAKAGE RATE: Gallons\nNOTIFY IDF Operations Supervisor if Average Daily Action Leakage Rate is GREATER than XXX\nGallons\nRepairs or remedial action taken:\nOperator's Printed Name: Date\nOperator's Signature: Time hrs\nOperations Supervisor Printed Name: Date\nOperations Supervisor Signature: Time hrs\n2 Figure 6.1.

Permit Condition II.C (Personnel\n4 Training), contains training requirements applicable to Hanford Facility personnel and non-Facility\n5 personnel. Compliance with these requirements at the Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF) is demonstrated\n6 by information contained in Permit Attachment 5, and this chapter. This chapter supplements Permit\n7 Attachment 5.\n8 8.1 Outline of Introductory and Continuing Training Programs [H-2]\n9 The introductory and continuing training programs are designed to prepare personnel to manage and\n10 maintain the treatment, storage, and disposal (TSD) unit in a safe, effective, and environmentally sound\n11 manner. In addition to preparing personnel to manage and maintain TSD units under normal conditions,\n12 the training programs ensure that personnel are prepared to respond in a prompt and effective manner\n13 should abnormal or emergency conditions occur. Emergency response training is consistent with the\n14 description of actions contained in Addendum J.1, Contingency Plan, Pre-Active Life.\n15 Introductory training includes general Hanford Facility training and TSD unit-specific training. General\n16 Hanford Facility training is described in Permit Attachment 5, and is provided in accordance with Permit\n17 Condition II.C.2. TSD unit-specific training is provided to Hanford Facility personnel allowing personnel\n18 to work unescorted. Hanford Facility personnel cannot perform a task for which they are not properly\n19 trained, except to gain required experience while under the direct supervision of a supervisor or coworker\n20 who is properly trained. Hanford Facility personnel assigned the job title of Emergency Coordinator and\n21 alternates to this position performing tasks described in WAC 173-303-360 (e.g., Building Emergency\n22 Directors) are thoroughly familiar with applicable contingency plan documentation, operations, activities,\n23 location, and properties of all waste handled, location of all records, and the unit/building layout.\n24 Continuing training meets the requirements for WAC 173-303-330(1)(b) and includes general Hanford\n25 Facility training and TSD unit-specific training. General Hanford Facility training is the same as\n26 described for introductory training. TSD unit-specific training provides an annual review of emergency\n27 response training and an annual review of training necessary to ensure TSD unit operations are in\n28 compliance with WAC 173-303.\n29 8.2 Description of Training Plan\n30 In accordance with Permit Condition II.C.3, the unit-specific portion of the Hanford Facility Dangerous\n31 Waste Permit Application must contain a description of the training plan. The plan is written to comply\n32 with WAC 173-303-330. Written training plan documentation is maintained outside of the Hanford\n33 Facility Dangerous Waste Permit Application and the Permit. Therefore, changes made to the written\n34 training plan documentation are not subject to the Permit modification process. The training plan will be\n35 maintained as part of the operating records of the facility and will be available to regulators upon request.\nChapter 8.5\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nChapter 8.6\n N\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\nCHAPTER 11.0\nCLOSURE\nChapter 11.i\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nChapter 11 .ii\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1\n2 CHAPTER 11.0\n3 CLOSURE\n4\n5 TABLE OF CONTENTS\n6 11.0 CLOSURE......................................................11.5\n7 11.1 Closure Plan................ .......................................... 11.5\n8 11.2 Closure Performance Standards........................................11.5\n9 11.3 Preclosure Activities...............................................11.5\n10 11.4 Maximum Extent of Operation........................................11.5\n11 11.5 Decontaminating Equipment and Structures................................11.6\n12 11.5.1 Contaminated Soil ........................................................ 11.6\n13 11.6 Closure of Landfill Units............................................11.6\n14 11.6.1 Cover Design....................................................11.6\n15 11.6.2 Wind Erosion....................................................11.8\n16 11.6.3 Water Erosion....................................................11.8\n17 11.6.4 Deep-Rooted Plants................................................11.8\n18 11.7 Schedule for Closure................................................11.9\n19 11.8 Extension for Closure...............................................11.9\n20 11.9 Postclosure Plan..................................................11.9\n21\n22 FIGURE\n23 Figure 11.1.

This closure plan complies with WAC 173-303-610 and represents the baseline for closure.\n4 The IDF has been constructed on 25 hectares of vacant land southwest of the Plutonium Uranium\n5 Extraction Facility (PUREX) Plant in the 200 East Area [see the topographic map on file at the\n6 Department of Ecology library (3100 Port of Benton Boulevard, Richland, WA 99354)]. The landfill is\n7 segregated into a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) permitted side and a non-RCRA\n8 permitted side. The scope of this permit is limited to the western side of the landfill where the RCRA\n9 waste will be placed. The waste containers and bulk waste that meet the IDF waste acceptance criteria\n10 will be inventoried, and disposed in this lined landfill. Leachate collected from the lined landfill will be\n11 transferred to leachate collection tanks located in proximity to the landfill for subsequent treatment.\n12 A more detailed discussion of IDF waste types and the identification of the IDF processes and equipment\n13 are provided in Chapters 3.0 and 4.0, and attendant appendices. The IDF only will accept and dispose\n14 waste containers and bulk waste that meet the IDF waste acceptance criteria, RCRA and Land Disposal\n15 Restriction (LDR).\n16 The closure process will be the same for partial closure or closure of the entire IDF. The remainder of\n17 this chapter describes the performance standards that will be met, and the closure/post closure activities\n18 that will be conducted.\n19 11.1 Closure Plan\n20 Waste containers and bulk waste that meet the IDF waste acceptance criteria will be disposed in the lined\n21 landfill that complies with WAC 173-303-665 standards (Chapter 4.0). The IDF will be closed according\n22 to current applicable WAC 173-303 regulations, United States Department of Energy (DOE)\n23 requirements, best management practices, and will be integrated with the overall cleanup activities\n24 performed under the Tri-Party Agreement (HFFACO).\n25 The disposal landfill cover will be designed and located to comply with WAC 173-303-665(6) and\n26 WAC 173-303-610. The specification and/or variation for other cover designs will be provided at the\n27 time of closure once a hazard(s) has been defined.\n28 11.2 Closure Performance Standards\n29 Closure requirements found in WAC 173-303-665(6), incorporated by reference, and detailed here in\n30 Chapter 11.0 of the IDF portion of the permit, will make up the closure performance standards for the\n31 IDF.\n32 11.3 Preclosure Activities\n33 Preclosure activities could include, at a minimum, placing interim or final covers over the filled portions\n34 of the landfill as the landfill is expanded to accept more waste. Placement of covers over the filled\n35 portions might be deferred until closure of all the IDF. Once a decision is made to construct the final\n36 cover over the landfill, a closure cover design will be used that satisfies the dangerous waste disposal\n37 requirements defined in WAC 173-303.\n38 The selection of a final cover design has not been identified. Figure I1-I shows an example of a typical\n39 Hanford Site landfill cover design. Design(s) will include features to satisfy the minimum requirements\n40 found in WAC 173-303-665(6).\n41 11.4 Maximum Extent of Operation\n42 The maximum process design capacity of the IDF conservatively is calculated to be 100 hectare-meters,\n43 which is 1,000,000 cubic meters (Chapter 1.0, Part A, Form, Section III). The IDF landfill will be\n44 segregated into a RCRA permitted side of 50 hectare-meters and a non-RCRA permitted side of\n45 50 hectare-meters.\nChapter 11.5\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 11.5 Decontaminating Equipment and Structures\n2 All ancillary equipment and its secondary containment, and instrumentation (e.g., level-indicating\n3 devices, leak detection devices, pumps, piping) meet the definition of \"debris\" as defined in\n4 WAC 173-303-040. Items in direct contact with mixed waste are assumed to meet the definition of\n5 \"hazardous debris\" as defined in WAC 173-303-040.\n6 Currently, three options are available for treating hazardous debris. The first option is to treat the debris\n7 using one of the three debris treatment technologies-extraction, destruction, or immobilization-as\n8 described in 40 CFR 268.45. If the hazardous debris is treated using approved extraction or destruction\n9 technologies, the debris is no longer required to be managed as a dangerous waste as long as the debris\n10 does not exhibit a characteristic of a dangerous waste. If hazardous debris contaminated with a listed\n11 waste is treated using an immobilization technology, it remains a listed waste, even after the LDR\n12 treatment standards are met unless Ecology makes a case-by-case determination that the debris \"no longer\n13 contains\" a mixed waste. In effect, by making this \"contained-in\" determination on a case-by-case basis,\n14 Ecology will be setting clean closure standards in accordance with the closure performance standards of\n15 WAC 173-303-610(2)(a)(ii).\n16 The second option is to treat the hazardous debris to meet the constituent-specific LDR treatment standard\n17 for the waste or waste-specific constituents contaminating the debris; however, such debris, even after\n18 treatment, may be considered a dangerous waste under the dangerous waste regulations and may require\n19 management at a facility permitted to manage dangerous waste.\n20 The third option involves obtaining a \"contained-in determination\" for the hazardous debris, thereby\n21 rendering the waste \"non-hazardous\" for those waste-specific-listed constituents that fall below Model\n22 Toxic Control Act (MTCA) method B risk-based health limits. Moreover, it must be proven that the\n23 debris does not designate as a characteristic waste under WAC-173-303.\n24 11.5.1 Contaminated Soil\n25 Contaminated soil could be generated as a result of spill cleanup. Since the majority of IDF operations\n26 will be performed within secondary containment (see Chapters 4.0 and 6.0) the potential for spilling\n27 dangerous waste into the surrounding soil is low. Contaminated soil generated as a result of a dangerous\n28 waste spill will be managed pursuant to WAC-173-303-200.\n29 Once the soil is designated, appropriate treatment and disposal or storage options will be determined and\n30 implemented.\n31 A contained-in determination could also be sought for contaminated soil generated as a result of a spill.\n32 For contaminated media the contained-in policy requires that a statistically based sampling plan be used\n33 for obtaining the data to support a contained-in demonstration. The contained-in policy does not require\n34 that the waste be analytically nondetectable for it to be considered nondangerous. However, the\n35 analytical results must prove that the listed constituents in the soil are below health-based limits as\n36 provided in WAC 173-303-610(2)(b)(i) and that the soil does not exhibit any dangerous waste\n37 characteristics (i.e., soil does not designate for D codes). If approved by Ecology, this could allow waste\n38 that falls below specific health-based levels to be disposed of without requiring treatment\n39 11.6 Closure of Landfill Units\n40 Closure of the IDF will be consistent with the closure requirements specified in WAC-173-303-665(6)\n41 and WAC 173-303-610. The cover design(s) will satisfy the requirements of WAC 173-303-665(6).\n42 11.6.1 Cover Design\n43 The cover could consist of several layers constructed on top of a native soil base. A generalized\n44 cross-section of an example cover is shown on Figure I 1-1. It is assumed that before construction of the\n45 final cover, the waste form would be stabilized appropriately.\nChapter 11.6\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 11.6.1.1 Grade Layer\n2 The surface of the landfill would be graded and/or shaped, if necessary, to match the slope of the desired\n3 low-permeability layer. Additional soil would be placed over the landfill to achieve the required cover\n4 grade. This grade layer could taper from zero thickness near the edge of the cover boundary to perhaps\n5 several meters at the center of the cover; the thickness would depend on the lateral dimensions of the\n6 particular cover and the grade of the cover.\n7 11.6.1.2 Low-Permeability Layer\n8 The selection of an appropriate material for this layer would be based on the hazard that is to be isolated.\n9 The low-permeability layer will be the primary barrier in preventing soil and/or water from migrating into\n10 the waste zone and meet WAC 173-303-655(6)(v) \"Have a permeability less than or equal to the\n11 permeability of any bottom liner system or natural sub soils present\".\n12 11.6.1.3 Drainage Layer\n13 The drainage layer would conduct any water that percolates through the overlying layers laterally to the\n14 drainage ditch. Thus, the drainage layer would prevent hydraulic pressure from building up directly on\n15 the low-permeability liner, and thereby eliminate one set of forces that would drive moisture through the\n16 primary moisture control barrier.\n17 11.6.1.4 Plant, Animal, and Human Intrusion Layer (optional)\n18 The performance objectives for the permanent isolation surface barrier are summarized as follows:\n19 * Function in a semiarid to sub-humid environment.\n20 * Limit the recharge of water through the waste to near zero amounts [0.05 centimeter per year\n21 (1.6x109 centimeters per second)].\n22 * Be maintenance free.\n23 * Minimize the likelihood of plant, animal, and human intrusion.\n24 * Limit the exhalation of noxious gases.\n25 * Minimize erosion-related problems.\n26 * Meet or exceed WAC 173-303-665(6) cover performance requirements.\n27 * Isolate waste for 1,000 years.\n28 To satisfy the intrusion performance objective, an optional layer would be included in the design of\n29 barriers that require the additional human and/or biointrusion protection to reduce either the\n30 environmental or human health risk.\n31 11.6.1.5 Graded Filter Layer\n32 A graded filter consisting of crushed rock overlaid by sand would be placed on the plant, animal, and\n33 human intrusion layer if incorporated into the design, or directly over the drainage layer. The graded\n34 filter would serve to separate the surface soil layer from the drainage layer. A geotextile would be placed\n35 on the top of the graded filter to decrease the potential for fine material to enter the filter and drainage\n36 zone. The geotextile would be permeable, allowing drainage, and would not support a standing head of\n37 water.\n38 11.6.1.6 Surface Soil Layer\n39 The two most important factors in engineering the surface soil thickness would be the assignment of the\n40 water retention characteristics for soil and climate information. Surface soil would be placed over the\n41 geotextile to intercept, store, recycle water, and prevent damage to the underlying structure from natural\n42 and synthetic processes.\nChapter 11.7\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 11.6.1.7 Vegetative Cover\n2 The vegetative cover would perform three functions. First, the plants would return water stored in the\n3 surface soil back to the atmosphere, significantly decreasing net infiltration and reducing the amount of\n4 moisture available to penetrate the cover. Second, the vegetation would stabilize the surface soil\n5 component of the cover against wind and water erosion. Finally, the vegetative cover would restore the\n6 appearance of the land to a more natural condition and appearance.\n7 A mixture of seeds would be used to establish vegetation. The seed types would be selected based on\n8 resistance to drought, rooting density, and ability to extract water.\n9 11.6.2 Wind Erosion\n10 The principal hazard associated with wind erosion is the thinning of the cover surface soil layer. This in\n11 turn potentially could lead to breaching of the moisture barriers, gradually allowing larger quantities of\n12 water to reach the waste. The engineering approaches to mitigating wind erosion of the cover would be\n13 (1) designing the surface soil layer with an appropriate total thickness to compensate for future soil loss\n14 that might result from wind erosion, (2) establishing a vegetative cover on the surface to reduce wind\n15 erosion, and (3) including an appropriate coarse material (admix) in the upper layer of the surface soil to\n16 form an armor layer.\n17 11.6.3 Water Erosion\n18 The potential hazard associated with water erosion is the same as that for wind erosion, namely the loss of\n19 soil from the top or surface layer.\n20 Several of the following engineering approaches could be adopted to minimize the potential for water\n21 erosion:\n22 * Limiting the surface slopes.\n23 * Providing run-on control with the sideslope drainage ditches.\n24 * Compacting the surface soil in a way that promotes significant infiltration rather than excessive\n25 run-off.\n26 * Properly designing the sideslopes to prevent gullying.\n27 * Establishing a vegetative cover to slow surface run-off.\n28 * Incorporating coarse material (pea gravel admix) in the upper portion of the surface soil layer to\n29 help form an erosion-resistant armor.\n30 * Limiting flow path lengths through the use of vegetation and admix.\n31 The cover design would be evaluated for potential erosion damage from overall soil erodibility, sheet\n32 flow, and gullying.\n33 11.6.4 Deep-Rooted Plants\n34 The following design features could minimize the potential for problems with deep-rooted plants.\n35 * The surface soil (top two layers) would retain most of the precipitation, because the underlying\n36 drainage layer would have significantly higher permeability and much less water retention\n37 capacity. Therefore, it is expected that vegetation preferentially would occupy the surface soil\n38 layer and not have an affinity for growing into the drier underlying layers.\n39 * The thickness of the surface soils would be sized to promote the development of semiarid\n40 deep-rooted perennial grasses and to discourage the development of deep-rooting intrusive\n41 species.\nChapter 11.8\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1 11.7 Schedule for Closure\n2 As stated previously, closure of the IDF will be a complex process. At the time of closure, this closure\n3 plan will be updated to reflect the current closure plan schedule per WAC 173-303-830, Appendix I. In\n4 addition, when a closure date is established, a revised closure plan and closure schedule will be submitted\n5 to Ecology that contains detailed information regarding specific activities and implementation\n6 timeframes.\n7 11.8 Extension for Closure\n8 An extension for closure request is anticipated to complete the closure/post closure process of the IDF.\n9 11.9 Postclosure Plan\n10 Because of the long active life of the TDF, a comprehensive post closure plan will be developed when\n11 closure becomes imminent or when 200 Areas cleanup activities prescribed by the Tri-Party Agreement\n12 require integration.\nChapter 11.9\n WA7890008967\nIntegrated Disposal Facility\n1\nVegetative Cover Geocomposite Drainage Layer\nSurface Soil Layer Flexlble Membrane Liner (optional)\nCompacted Soli/Bentonite Admix\nGrade Layer\n2 ft Riprap Layer\n1 ft Riprap Bedding Layer\n3%\n3ft ..

The 200 Area ETF is located in the 200 East Area. Aqueous wastes managed by the 200 Area\n8 ETF include process condensate from the LERF and 200 Area ETF and other aqueous waste generated\n9 from onsite remediation and waste management activities.\n10 The LERF consists of three lined surface impoundments, or basins. Aqueous waste from LERF is\n11 pumped to the 200 Area ETF for treatment in a series of process units, or systems, that remove or destroy\n12 essentially all of the dangerous waste constituents. The treated effluent is discharged to a State-Approved\n13 Land Disposal Site (SALDS) north of the 200 West Area, under the authority of a Washington State\n14 Waste Discharge Permit (Ecology 2000) and 200 Area ETF Delisting (40 Code of Federal Regulations\n15 (CFR) 261, Appendix IX, Table 2). Construction of the LERF began in 1990. Waste management\n16 operations began at LERF in April 1994. Construction of the 200 Area ETF began in 1992. Waste\n17 management operations began at 200 Area ETF in November of 1995.\n18 This Chapter provides unit-specific Permit conditions applicable to the dangerous waste management\n19 units for LERF and 200 Area ETF.\n20 LIST OF ADDENDA SPECIFIC TO OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\n21 Addendum A Part A Form, dated March 31, 2015\n22 Addendum B Waste Analysis Plan, dated June 30, 2015\n23 Addendum C Process Information, dated December 31, 2014\n24 Addendum D Groundwater Monitoring, approved April 29, 2014\n25 Addendum E Security Requirements, dated, June 30, 2011\n26 Addendum F Preparedness and Prevention, dated April 8, 2014\n27 Addendum G Personnel Training, dated June 30, 2015\n28 Addendum H Closure Plan, dated June 30, 2011\n29 Addendum I Inspection Requirements, dated April 8, 2014\n30 Addendum J Contingency Plan, dated June 30, 2015\n31 DEFINITIONS\n32 State and federal delisting actions: The state delisting action pursuant to Washington Administrative\n33 Code (WAC) 173-303-910(3), August 8, 2005, and the federal delisting action appearing in 40 CFR 261,\n34 Appendix IX, Table 2 applicable to the United States, Department of Energy, Richland, Washington.\n35 ACRONYMS\n36 LERF and 200 Area ETF 200-Area Liquids Processing Facility\n37\nConditions.3\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1\n2 III.3.A COMPLIANCE WITH UNIT-SPECIFIC PERMIT CONDITIONS\n3 III.3.A.1 The Permittees will comply with all Permit Conditions in this Chapter and its\n4 Addendums and Chapters with respect to dangerous waste management and dangerous\n5 waste management units in LERF and 200 Area ETF, in addition to requirements in\n6 Permit Part I and Part II.\n7 III.3.B GENERAL WASTE MANAGEMENT\n8 III.3.B.1 The Permittees are authorized to accept dangerous and/or mixed waste for treatment in\n9 dangerous waste management units that satisfies the waste acceptance criteria in Permit\n10 Addendum B according to the waste acceptance procedures in Permit Addendum B.\n11 [WAC 173-303-300]\n12 III.3.B.2 The Permittees are authorized to manage dangerous and/or mixed wastes physically\n13 present in the dangerous waste management units in LERF and 200 Area ETF as of the\n14 effective date of this Permit according to the requirements of Permit Condition 111.15.B.1.\n15 III.3.B.3 The Permittees are authorized to treat and/or store dangerous/mixed waste in the\n16 dangerous waste management units in LERF and 200 Area ETF according to the\n17 following requirements:\n18 III.3.B.3.a The Permittees are authorized to treat, and store as necessary in support of treatment,\n19 dangerous waste in the 200 Area ETF tank systems identified in Permit Addendum C,\n20 Section C.2, and Section C.4 according to the Permit Conditions of this Chapter.\n21 III.3.B.3.b The Permittees are authorized to store and treat those dangerous and/or mixed waste\n22 identified in Permit Addendum C, Section C.3, in containers according to the\n23 requirements of this Chapter.

Nature of Business (provide a brief description that Includes both dangerous waste and non-dangerous\nwaste areas and activities)\nConstruction of the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (LERF) began in 1990. Waste management\noperations began at LERF in April 1994. Construction of the 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility (ETF)\nbegan in 1992. Waste management operations began at ETF in November of 1995.\nThe LERF and ETF comprise an aqueous waste treatment system located in the 200 East Area that provides\nstorage and treatment for a variety of aqueous mixed waste. This aqueous waste includes process\ncondensate from the 242-A Evaporator and other aqueous waste generated from onsite remediation and\nwaste management activities.\nThe LERF consists of three lined surface impoundments, or basins. Aqueous waste from LERF is pumped\nto the ETF for treatment in a series of process units, or systems, that remove or destroy dangerous waste\nconstituents. The treated effluent is discharged to a State-Approved Land Disposal Site (SALDS) north of\nthe 200 West Area, under the authority of a Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (ST4500) and the\nFinal Delisting (40 CFR 261, Appendix IX, Table 2)\nSludge that accumulates in the bottoms of ETF process tanks is removed periodically and placed into\ncontainers. The waste is solidified by decanting the supernate from the container and the remainder of the\nliquid is allowed to evaporate, or absorbents are added, as necessary, to address the residual liquid. The\nprocess design capacity for treatment of waste in containers (TO4) is 18,927 liters per day.\nECY 030-31 Hanford (Rev. 3/5/04) Page 3 of 16\n Permit WA7890008967 Part Ill, Operating Unit Group 3\nLiquid Effluent Retention Facility & 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility, Rev. 4\nEXAMPLE FOR COMPLETING ITEMS XII and XIII (shown in lines numbered X-1, X-2, and X-3 below): A facility has\ntwo storage tanks that hold 1200 gallons and 400 gallons respectively. There is also treatment in tanks at 20 gallons/hr.\nFinally, a one-quarter acre area that is two meters deep will undergo in situ vitrification.\nSection XII. Process Codes and Design Section XIII.

This\n9 WAP documents the sampling and analytical methods, and describes the procedures used to obtain this\n10 knowledge. This WAP also documents the requirements for generators sending aqueous waste to the\n11 LERF or 200 Area ETF for treatment. Throughout this WAP, the term generator includes any Hanford\n12 Site source, including treatment, storage, and disposal (TSD) units, whose process produces an aqueous\n13 waste.\n14 LERF consists of three surface impoundments, which provide treatment and storage. The 200 Area ETF\n15 includes a tank system, which provides treatment and storage, and a container management area, which\n16 provides container storage and treatment. Additionally, this WAP discusses the sampling and analytical\n17 methods for the treated effluent (treated aqueous waste) that is discharged from 200 Area ETF as a\n18 non-dangerous, delisted waste to the State Approved Land Disposal Site (SALDS). Specifically, the\n19 WAP contains sampling and analysis requirements including quality assurance/quality control\n20 requirements, for the following:\n21 * Influent Waste Acceptance Process -determines the acceptability of a particular aqueous waste\n22 at the LERF or 200 Area ETF pursuant to applicable Permit conditions, regulatory requirements,\n23 and operating capabilities prior to acceptance of the waste at the LERF or 200 Area ETF for\n24 treatment or storage. This includes documenting that wastes accepted for treatment at ETF are\n25 within the treatability envelope required by the Final Delisting 200 Area ETF, Permit Condition\n26 1.a.i. Refer to Section B.2.\n27 * Special Management Requirements -identifies the special management requirements for\n28 aqueous wastes managed in the LERF or 200 Area ETF. Refer to Section B.3.\n29 * Influent Aqueous Waste Sampling and Analysis -describes influent sampling and analyses\n30 used to characterize an influent aqueous waste to ensure proper management of the waste and for\n31 compliance with the special management requirements. Also includes rationale for analyses.\n32 Refer to Section B.4.\n33 * Treated Effluent Sampling and Analysis -describes sampling and analyses of treated effluent\n34 (i.e., treated aqueous waste) for compliance with Washington State Waste Discharge Permit,\n35 No. ST 4500 (Ecology 2000); and Final Delisting 200 Area ETF 40 CFR 261, Appendix IX,\n36 Table 2 and the corresponding State Final Delisting issued pursuant to WAC 173-303-910(3)\n37 limits. Also includes rationale for analyses.

The Washington State Waste\n11 Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500) Conditions are not within the scope of Resource Conservation and\n12 Recovery Act (RCRA) or WAC 173-303 or subject to the permit requirements of WAC 173-303-800.\n13 Therefore, revisions of this WAP that are not governed by the requirements of WAC 173-303 will not be\n14 considered as a modification subject to review or approval by Ecology. Any other revisions to this WAP\n15 will be incorporated through the Permit modification process as necessary to demonstrate compliance\n16 with requirements of this Permit, including Permit Conditions I.E.7 and I.E.8.\n17 B.1.1 Liquid Effluent Retention Facility and Effluent Treatment Facility Description\n18 The LERF and 200 Area ETF comprise an aqueous waste treatment system located in the 200 East Area.\n19 Both LERF and 200 Area ETF may receive aqueous waste through several inlets. 200 Area ETF can\n20 receive aqueous waste through three inlets. First, 200 Area ETF can receive aqueous waste directly from\n21 the LERF. Second, aqueous waste can be transferred from the Load-in Station to 200 Area ETF. Third,\n22 aqueous waste can be transferred from containers (e.g., carboys, drums) to the 200 Area ETF through\n23 either the Secondary Waste Receiving Tanks or the Concentrate Tanks. The Load-in Station is located\n24 just east of 200 Area ETF and currently consists of three storage tanks and a pipeline that connects to\n25 either LERF or 200 Area ETF through fiberglass pipelines with secondary containment.\n26 The LERF can receive aqueous waste through four inlets. First, aqueous waste can be transferred to\n27 LERF through a dedicated pipeline from the 200 West Area. Second, aqueous waste can be transferred\n28 through a pipeline that connects LERF with the 242-A Evaporator. Third, aqueous waste also can be\n29 transferred to LERF from a pipeline that connects LERF to the Load-in Station at 200 Area ETF. Finally,\n30 aqueous waste can be transferred into LERF through a series of sample ports located at each basin.\n31 The LERF consists of three lined surface impoundments with a nominal capacity of 29.5 million liters\n32 each. Aqueous waste from LERF is pumped to 200 Area ETF through a double walled fiberglass\n33 pipeline. The pipeline is equipped with leak detection located in the annulus between the inner and outer\n34 pipes. Each basin is equipped with six available sample risers constructed of 6-inch-perforated pipe. A\n35 seventh sample riser in each basin is dedicated to influent waste receipt piping, and an eighth riser in each\n36 basin contains liquid level instrumentation. Each riser extends along the sides of each basin from the top\n37 to the bottom of the basin. Detailed information on the construction and operation of the LERF is\n38 provided in Addendum C, Process Information.\n39 200 Area ETF is designed to treat the contaminants anticipated in process condensate from the\n40 242-A Evaporator and other aqueous wastes from the Hanford Site. Section B.1.2 provides more\n41 information on the sources of these wastes.\n42 The capabilities of 200 Area ETF were confirmed through pilot plant testing. A pilot plant was used to\n43 test surrogate solutions that contained constituents of concern anticipated in aqueous wastes on the\n44 Hanford Site. The pilot plant testing served as the basis for a demonstration of the treatment capabilities\n45 of 200 Area ETF in the 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility Delisting Petition (DOE/RL-92-72).\n46 200 Area ETF consists of a primary and a secondary treatment train (Figure B.1). The primary treatment\n47 train removes or destroys dangerous and mixed waste components from the aqueous waste.\nAddendum B.7\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI In the secondary treatment train, the waste components are concentrated and dried into a powder. This\n2 waste is containerized, and transferred to a waste treatment, storage, and/or disposal (TSD) unit.\n3 Each treatment train consists of a series of operations. The primary treatment train includes the\n4 following:\n5 * Surge tank\n6 * Filtration\n7 * Ultraviolet light oxidation (UV/OX)\n8 * pH adjustment\n9 * Hydrogen peroxide decomposition\n10 * Degasification\n11 * Reverse osmosis (RO)\n12 * Ion exchange\n13 * Final pH adjustment and verification\n14 The secondary treatment train uses the following:\n15 * Secondary waste receiving\n16 * Evaporation (with mechanical vapor recompression)\n17 * Concentrate staging\n18 * Thin film drying\n19 * Container handling\n20 * Supporting systems\n21 A dry powder waste is generated from the secondary treatment train, from the treatment of an aqueous\n22 waste. The secondary waste treatment system typically receives and processes by-products generated\n23 from the primary treatment train. However, in an alternate operating scenario, some aqueous wastes may\n24 be fed to the secondary treatment train before the primary treatment train.\n25 The treated effluent is contained in verification tanks where the effluent is sampled to confirm that the\n26 effluent meets the delisting criteria. Under 40 CFR 261, Appendix IX, Table 2, the treated effluent from\n27 200 Area ETF is considered a delisted waste; that is, the treated effluent is no longer a listed dangerous\n28 waste subject to the hazardous waste management requirements of RCRA provided that the delisting\n29 criteria are satisfied and the treated effluent does not exhibit a dangerous characteristic. The treated\n30 effluent is discharged under the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500) as a\n31 nondangerous, delisted waste to the SALDS, located in the 600 Area, north of the 200 West Area. A\n32 portion of the treated wastewater from the Verification Tanks is recycled as service water throughout the\n33 facility; for example, it is used to dilute bulk acid and caustic to meet processing needs, thereby reducing\n34 the demand for process water.\n35 B.1.2 Sources of Aqueous Waste\n36 200 Area ETF was intended and designed to treat a variety of mixed wastes. However, process\n37 condensate from the 242-A Evaporator was the only mixed waste initially identified for storage and\n38 treatment in the LERF and 200 Area ETF. As cleanup activities at Hanford progress, many of the\n39 aqueous wastes generated from site remediation and waste management activities are sent to the LERF\n40 and 200 Area ETF for treatment and storage. A brief discussion of waste streams that may be managed\n41 by LERF and 200 Area ETF in the future may be found in the 200 Area ETF Delisting Petition\n42 (DOE/RL-92-97).\nAddendum B.8\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Prior to management of any new waste streams, it may be necessary to modify this WAP through the\n2 permit modification process to ensure that adequate knowledge of such new waste streams is available\n3 prior to management of them in LERF and 200 Area ETF.\n4 The 242-A process condensate is a dangerous waste because it is derived from a listed, dangerous waste\n5 stored in the Double-Shell Tank (DST) System. The DST waste is transferred to the 242-A Evaporator\n6 where the waste is concentrated through an evaporation process. The concentrated slurry waste is\n7 returned to the DST System, and the evaporated portion of the waste is recondensed, collected, and\n8 transferred as process condensate to the LERF.\n9 Other aqueous wastes that are treated and stored at the LERF and 200 Area ETF include, but are not\n10 limited to the following Hanford wastes:\n11 * Contaminated groundwater from pump-and-treat remediation activities such as groundwater from\n12 the 200-UP-1 Operable Unit.\n13 * Purgewater from groundwater monitoring activities.\n14 * Water from deactivation activities, such as water from the spent fuel storage basins at deactivated\n15 reactors (e.g., N Reactor).\n16 * Laboratory aqueous waste from unused samples and sample analyses.\n17 * Leachate from landfills, such as the Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility.\n18 * Any dilute waste, which may be accepted for treatment and within the scope of wastewaters that\n19 maybe delisted under terms of the revised delisting (40 CFR 261, Appendix IX, Table 2).\n20 Most of these aqueous wastes are accumulated in batches in a LERF basin for interim storage and\n21 treatment through pH and flow equalization before final treatment in 200 Area ETF. However, some\n22 aqueous wastes, such as 200-UP-I Groundwater, maybe treated on a flow through basis in LERF en route\n23 to 200 Area ETF for final treatment. The constituents in these aqueous wastes are common to the\n24 Hanford Site and were considered in pilot plant testing or in vendor tests, either as a constituent or as a\n25 family of constituents. According to the 200 Area ETF Delisting, Permit Condition 1.a.i, all wastes\n26 accepted for treatment at 200 Area ETF must be within a specified treatability envelope that ensures that\n27 wastes will be within the treatment capability of 200 Area ETF.\n28 B.2 Influent Waste Acceptance Process\n29 Throughout the acceptance process, there are specific criteria required for an influent waste (i.e., aqueous\n30 waste) to be accepted at the LERF and/or 200 Area ETF. These criteria are identified in the following\n31 sections and summarized in Table B.2. The process of accepting a waste into the LERF and 200 Area\n32 ETF systems involves a series of steps, as follows.\n33 * Waste information: The generator of an aqueous waste works with LERF and 200 Area ETF\n34 personnel to provide characterization data of the waste stream (Section B.2.1).\n35 * Waste management decision process: LERF and 200 Area ETF management decision is based\n36 on a case-by-case evaluation of whether an aqueous waste stream is acceptable for treatment or\n37 storage at LERF and the 200 Area ETF. The evaluation has two categories:\n38 o Regulatory acceptability: a review to determine if there are any, regulatory concerns that\n39 would prohibit the storage or treatment of an aqueous waste in the LERF or 200 Area ETF;\n40 e.g., treatment would meet permit conditions that would comply with applicable regulations.\n41 o Operational acceptability: an evaluation to determine if there are any operational concerns\n42 that would prohibit the storage or treatment of an aqueous waste in the LERF or 200 Area\n43 ETF and storage of treatment residuals; e.g., determine treatability and compatibility or safety\n44 considerations (Section B.2.2.2).\nAddendum B.9\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 B.2.1 Waste Information\n2 When an aqueous waste stream is identified for treatment or storage in the LERF or 200 Area ETF, the\n3 generator is required to characterize the waste stream according to the requirements in Section B.2. 1.1\n4 and document the results of characterization on an aqueous waste profile sheet. This requirement is the\n5 first waste acceptance criterion.\n6 The LERF and 200 Area ETF personnel work with the generators to ensure that the necessary information\n7 is collected for the characterization of a waste stream (i.e., the appropriate analyses or adequate\n8 knowledge), and that the information provided on the waste profile sheet is complete. The completed\n9 waste profile sheet is maintained in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF File\n10 according to Permit Condition II.I.1.j.\n11 B.2.1.1 Waste Characterization\n12 Because the constituents in the individual aqueous waste streams vary, each waste stream is characterized\n13 and evaluated for acceptability on a case-by-case basis. The generator is required to designate an aqueous\n14 waste, which generally will be based on analytical data. However, a generator may use knowledge to\n15 substantiate the waste designation, or for general characterization information. Examples of acceptable\n16 knowledge include the following:\n17 * Documented data or information on processes similar to that which generated the aqueous waste\n18 stream\n19 * Information/documentation that the waste stream is from specific, well documented processes,\n20 e.g., F-listed wastes\n21 * Information/documentation that sampling/analyzing a waste stream would pose health and safety\n22 risks to personnel\n23 * Information/documentation that the waste stream does not lend itself to collecting a laboratory\n24 sample for example, wastewater collected (e.g., sump, tank) where the source water\n25 characterization is documented. Typically, these circumstances occur at decommissioned\n26 buildings or locations, not at operating units.\n27 When a generator performs characterization of a dangerous and/or mixed waste stream based on\n28 knowledge, LERF and 200 Area ETF personnel review the knowledge as part of the waste acceptance\n29 process to ensure the knowledge satisfies the definition of knowledge in WAC 173-303-040. Specifically,\n30 LERF and 200 Area ETF personnel review the generator's processes to verify the integrity of the\n31 knowledge, and determine whether the knowledge is current and consistent with requirements of this is\n32 WAP. LERF and 200 Area ETF management or their designee determines the final decision on the\n33 adequacy of the knowledge. The persons reviewing generator process knowledge and those making\n34 decisions on the adequacy of knowledge are trained according to the requirements of Addendum G,\n35 Personnel Training.\n36\nAddendum B.10\n eank Compressor\nFilled Container Storage Area OFed SeaO\nTruck Bay Spray Sump Tank - Water\nSCondenser u-2 Tank\n-4 No, I\nDryer Boiler Concentrate Tanks Secondary Waste Surge Tank\nryrR ceivng Tanks Eaoao\nThin Film-\nDryer (C\nN Rough0 Polishers Fine Fitter FSrg01 FitterFt SurgeContainer Fitei*Tank\nHandling Cnan s UVXEvaporator Pumps\n(D Room Conveyors Concentrae er Boiler ....... ........\nRoomuConcentrate s Secondary Waste Inlet Cooler - Unit\nCirculation Pumps Receiving Tank Pumps Building\nRD --at ------ Peroxide Decomposer wall( Second RO First RO\nRO Feed Second Cleaning Feed Degasification pH Adjustment Tank\npH Tank RO Stage Agent Feed Tank Column 4% Sodum\nEffluent pH q _'NO System d 64%Soiu\ntAdjuspet [ y UVOX Hydoxide\nZ;Tank Ei [l*[/nt Tn Hydroxide Tank\nEffluent pScdDOegasification Dute\n3 IBlower\nEffluent pH Se[ RO Ae e Chical\nA n ped Tank Sg dnk Degasicaton p Ad sment e\nPumps Pink RD Sta /pumps Tank Pumps Ttorage Reverse Osmosis System Degasification 4n Su urc AS\nColumn Inlet Cooler Acid Tank\nReturn Primary\nPunip -b.

Because the 200 Area ETF main treatment train is a\n4 Clean Water Act, equivalent treatment unit [40 CFR 268.37(a)] incorporated by reference by\n5 WAC 173-303-140, generators are not required to identify underlying hazardous constituents for\n6 characteristic wastes pursuant to 40 CFR 268.9, incorporated by reference by WAC 173-303-140, for\n7 wastewaters (i.e., <1 percent total suspended solids and <1 percent total organic carbon). The 200 Area\n8 ETF secondary waste (e.g., powder) reflects a change in LDR treatability group (i.e., wastewater to non-\n9 wastewater) so there is a new LDR point of generation, at which point any characteristic and associated\n10 underlying hazardous constituents must be identified. Therefore, generators of a non-wastewater may be\n11 required to identify underlying hazardous constituents for characteristic wastes pursuant to 40 CFR 268.9,\n12 incorporated by reference by WAC 173-303-140.\n13 When analyzing an aqueous waste stream for LERF and 200 Area ETF waste acceptance characterization,\n14 a generator is required to use the target list of parameters identified in Table B.3, of this WAP. This\n15 requirement is in addition to any analysis required for purposes of designation under WAC 173-303-070.\n16 These data are used by LERF and 200 Area ETF to verify the treatability of an aqueous waste stream, and\n17 to develop a treatment plan for the waste after acceptance. Refer to Table B.6, for the corresponding\n18 analytical methods. The generator may use knowledge in lieu of some analyses, as determined by LERF\n19 and 200 Area ETF management or their designee, if the knowledge satisfies the definition of knowledge\n20 in WAC 173-303-040. For example if a generator provides information that the process generating an\n21 aqueous waste does not include or involve organic chemicals, analyses for organic compounds likely\n22 would not be required. Additional analyses could be required if historical information and/or knowledge\n23 indicate that an aqueous waste contains constituents not included in the target list of parameters.\n24 The characterization and historical information are documented in the waste profile sheet, which is\n25 discussed in the following section and is part of the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and\n26 200 Area ETF File according to Permit Condition 11.1.\n27 B.2.1.2 Aqueous Waste Profile Sheet\n28 The waste profile sheet documents the characterization of each new aqueous waste stream. The profile\n29 includes a detailed description of the source, volume, waste designation and applicable LDR treatment\n30 standards, and physical nature (wastewater or non-wastewater) of the aqueous waste. For an aqueous\n31 waste to be accepted for treatment or storage in the LERF or 200 Area ETF, each new waste stream\n32 generator is required to complete and provide this form to LERF and 200 Area ETF management. Each\n33 generator also is required to provide the analytical data and/or knowledge used to designate the aqueous\n34 waste stream according to WAC 173-303-070 and to determine the chemical and physical nature of the\n35 waste.\n36 The LERF and ETF management determine whether the information on the waste profile sheet is\n37 sufficient according to the criteria above. The LERF and 200 Area ETF management use this information\n38 to evaluate the acceptability of the aqueous waste stream for storage and treatment in the LERF and\n39 200 Area ETF, and to determine if the secondary waste generated from treatment is acceptable for storage\n40 at the 200 Area ETF and has a defined path forward to final disposal.\n41 B.2.2 Waste Management Decision Process\n42 All aqueous waste under consideration for acceptance must be characterized using analytical data and/or\n43 knowledge. This information is used to determine the acceptability of an aqueous waste stream. The\n44 LERF and 200 Area ETF Facility Manager or their designee is responsible for making the decision to\n45 accept or reject an aqueous waste stream. The management decision to accept any aqueous waste stream\n46 is based on an evaluation of regulatory acceptability and operational acceptability. Each evaluation uses\n47 acceptance criteria, which were developed to ensure that an aqueous waste is managed in a safe,\n48 environmentally sound, and in compliance with this Permit. The following sections provide detail on the\n49 acceptance evaluation and the acceptance criteria.\nAddendum B.12\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 An aqueous waste stream could be rejected for one of the following reasons:\n2 * The paperwork and/or laboratory analyses from the generator are insufficient\n3 * Discrepancies with the regulatory and operational acceptance criteria cannot be reconciled,\n4 including:\n5 o An aqueous waste is not allowed under the current Washington State Waste Discharge Permit\n6 (No. ST 4500) or 200 Area ETF Delisting, and LERF and 200 Area ETF management elect\n7 not to pursue an amendment, or the Permit and Delisting cannot be amended\n8 (Section B.2.2.1)\n9 o An aqueous waste is incompatible with LERF liner materials or with other aqueous waste in\n10 LERF and no other management method is available (Section B.2.2.2.2).\n11 * Adequate storage or treatment capacity is not available.\n12 B.2.2.1 Regulatory Acceptability\n13 Each aqueous waste stream is evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if there are any regulatory\n14 concerns that would preclude the storage or treatment of a waste in the LERF or 200 Area ETF based on\n15 the criteria in Sections B2.2.1.1 and B.2.2.1.2. Before an aqueous waste can be stored or treated in either\n16 the LERF or 200 Area ETF, the waste designation must be determined. Information on the waste\n17 designation of an aqueous waste is documented in the waste profile sheet. This information is used to\n18 confirm that treating or storing the aqueous waste in the LERF or 200 Area ETF is allowed under and in\n19 compliance with WAC 173-303, Permit (WA7890008967), 200 Area ETF Delisting in 40 CFR 261,\n20 Appendix IX, Table 2, the corresponding State-Issued Delisting, and the Washington State Waste\n21 Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500) for 200 Area ETF.\n22 B.2.2.1.1 Dangerous Waste Regulations, State and Federal Delisting Actions, and\n23 Permits\n24 Before an aqueous waste stream is sent to the LERF or 200 Area ETF, the generator will characterize and\n25 designate the stream with the appropriate dangerous/hazardous waste numbers according to\n26 WAC 173-303-070. Addendum A, the 200 Area ETF Delisting and the corresponding State-Issued\n27 Delisting identify the specific waste numbers for dangerous/mixed waste that can be managed in the\n28 LERF and 200 Area ETF. Dangerous waste designated with waste numbers not specified in these\n29 documents cannot be treated or stored in the LERF or 200 Area ETF, unless the documents are\n30 appropriately modified.\n31 Additionally, aqueous wastes designated with listed waste numbers identified in the 200 Area ETF\n32 Delisting and the corresponding State-Issued Delisting will be managed in accordance with the conditions\n33 of the delisting, or an amended delisting.\n34 B.2.2.1.2 State Waste Permit Regulations/Permit\n35 Compliance with the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500), constitutes another waste\n36 acceptance criterion. In accordance with the permit conditions of the Washington State Waste Discharge\n37 Permit (No. ST 4500), the constituents of concern in each new aqueous waste stream must be identified.\n38 The waste designation and characterization data provided by the generator are used to identify these\n39 constituents. The Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500), defines a constituent of\n40 concern in an aqueous waste stream, under the conditions of the Discharge Permit, as any contaminant\n41 with a maximum concentration greater than one of the following:\n42 * Any limit in the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500)\n43 * Groundwater Quality Criteria (WAC 173-200)\n44 * Final Delisting level (40 CFR 261, Appendix IX, Table 2)\n45 * The corresponding State-Issued Delisting\nAddendum B.13\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n* Background groundwater concentration as measured at the SALDS disposal site. The practical\n2 quantification limit (PQL) is used for the groundwater background concentration for constituents\n3 not analyzed or not detected in the SALDs background data.\n4 The Permit conditions of the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500), also require a\n5 demonstration that 200 Area ETF can treat the constituents of concern to below discharge limits.\n6 B.2.2.2 Operational Acceptability\n7 Because the operating configuration or operating parameters at the LERF and 200 Area ETF can be\n8 adjusted or modified, most aqueous waste streams generated on the Hanford Site can be effectively\n9 treated to below Delisting and Discharge Permit limits. Because of this flexibility, it would be\n10 impractical to define numerical acceptance or decision limits. Such limits would constrain the acceptance\n11 of appropriate aqueous waste streams for treatment at the LERF and 200 Area ETF. The versatility of the\n12 LERF and 200 Area ETF is better explained in the following examples:\n13 * The typical operating configuration of 200 Area ETF is to process an aqueous waste through the\n14 UV/OX unit first, followed by the RO unit. However, high concentrations of nitrates may\n15 interfere with the performance of the UV/OX. In this case, 200 Area ETF could be configured to\n16 process the waste in the RO unit prior to the JV/OX unit.\n17 * For a small volume aqueous waste with high concentrations of some anions and metals, the\n18 approach may be to first process the waste stream in the secondary treatment train. This approach\n19 would prevent premature fouling or scaling of the RO unit. The liquid portion (i.e., untreated\n20 overheads from 200 Area ETF evaporator and thin film dryer) would be sent to the primary\n21 treatment train.\n22 * An aqueous waste with high concentrations of chlorides and fluorides may cause corrosion\n23 problems when concentrated in the secondary treatment train. One approach is to adjust the\n24 corrosion control measures in the secondary treatment train. An alternative may be to blend this\n25 aqueous waste in a LERF basin with another aqueous waste, which has sufficient dissolved\n26 solids, such that the concentration of the chlorides in the secondary treatment train would not\n27 pose a corrosion concern.\n28 * Some metal salts (e.g., barium sulfate) tend to scale the RO membranes. In this situation,\n29 descalants used in the treatment process may be increased.\n30 * Any effluent that does not meet these limits in one pass through 200 Area ETF treatment process\n31 is recycled to 200 Area ETF for re-processing.\n32 There are some aqueous wastes, whose chemical and physical properties preclude that waste from being\n33 treated or stored at the LERF or 200 Area ETF. Accordingly, an aqueous waste is evaluated to determine\n34 if it is treatable, if it would impair the efficiency or integrity of the LERF or 200 Area ETF, and if it is\n35 compatible with materials in these units. This evaluation also determines if the aqueous waste is\n36 compatible with other aqueous wastes managed in the LERF.\n37 The waste acceptance criteria in this category focus on determining treatability of an aqueous waste\n38 stream, and on determining any operational concerns that would prohibit the storage or treatment of an\n39 aqueous waste stream in the LERF or 200 Area ETF. The chemical and physical properties of an aqueous\n40 waste stream are determined as part of the waste characterization, and are documented on the waste\n41 profile sheet and compared to the design of the units to determine whether an aqueous waste stream is\n42 appropriate for storage and treatment in the LERF and 200 Area ETF. All decisions and supporting\n43 rationale and data will be documented in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area\n44 ETF File according to Permit Condition 11.1.\n45 B.2.2.3 Special Requirements Pertaining to Land Disposal Restrictions\n46 Containers of 200 Area ETF secondary waste are transferred to a storage or final disposal unit, as\n47 appropriate (e.g., the Central Waste Complex or to the Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility).\nAddendum B.14\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 200 Area ETF personnel provide the analytical characterization data and necessary process knowledge for\n2 the waste to be managed by the receiving staff, and the appropriate LDR documentation.\n3 The following information on the secondary waste is included on the LDR documentation provided to the\n4 receiving unit:\n5 * Dangerous waste numbers (as applicable)\n6 * Determination on whether the waste is restricted from land disposal according to the requirements\n7 of 40 CFR 268 incorporated by reference by WAC 173-303-140 (i.e., the LDR status of the\n8 waste)\n9 The waste tracking information associated with the transfer of waste\n10 * Waste analysis results.\n11 Generally, the operating parameters or operating configuration at the LERF or 200 Area ETF can be\n12 adjusted or modified to accommodate these properties. However, in those cases where a treatment\n13 process or operating configuration cannot be modified, the aqueous waste stream will be excluded from\n14 treatment or storage at the LERF or 200 Area ETF. Additionally, an aqueous waste stream is evaluated\n15 for the potential to deposit solids in a LERF basin (i.e., whether an aqueous waste contains sludge or\n16 could precipitate solids). This evaluation will also consider whether the blending or mixing of two or\n17 more aqueous waste streams will result in the formation of a precipitate. However, because the waste\n18 streams managed in the LERF and 200 Area ETF are generally dilute, the potential for mixing waste\n19 streams and forming a precipitate is low; no specific compatibility tests are performed. Filtration at the\n20 waste source could be required before acceptance into LERF. Waste streams with the potential to form\n21 precipitates in LERF or that cannot be blended with other waste streams to avoid precipitate formation are\n22 not accepted for treatment at LERF and 200 Area ETF. The Load-in Facility has the ability to perform\n23 filtration on incoming waste streams going to both the LERF and 200 Area ETF Load in. See additional\n24 discussions of precipitate formation and compliance with LDR requirements in Section B.3. Similar\n25 filtration requirements could apply to aqueous waste fed directly to 200 Area ETF without interim\n26 treatment in LERF.\n27 To determine if an aqueous waste meets the criterion of treatability, specific information is required.\n28 Treatability of a waste stream is evaluated from characterization data provided by the generator as\n29 verified through the waste acceptance process, the 200 Area waste acceptance criteria, and the treatability\n30 envelope for the 200 Area ETF as documented in Tables C.1 and C.2 of the November 29, 2001 delisting\n31 petition. Generators will also provide characterization data to identify those physical and chemical\n32 properties that would interfere with, or foul 200 Area ETF treatment process in consultation with LERF\n33 and 200 Area ETF representatives. In some instances, knowledge that meets the definition of knowledge\n34 in WAC 173-303-040 is used for purposes of identifying a chemical or physical property that would be of\n35 concern. For example, the generator could provide knowledge that the stream has two phases (an oily\n36 phase and an aqueous phase). In this case, if the generator could not physically separate the two phases,\n37 the aqueous waste stream would be rejected because the oily phase could compromise some of the\n38 treatment equipment. Typically, analyses for the following parameters are required to evaluate\n39 treatability and operational concerns:\n* total dissolved solids * barium * nitrite\n* total organic carbon * calcium * phosphate\n* total suspended solids * chloride * potassium\n* specific conductivity * fluoride * silicon\n* pH * iron * sodium\n* alkalinity * magnesium * sulfate\n* ammonia * nitrate\nAddendum B.15\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI These constituents are identified in Table B.2, which is the list of target analytes used for waste\n2 characterization and waste acceptance evaluation.\n3 B.2.2.3.1 Compatibility\n4 Corrosion Control. Because of the materials of construction used in 200 Area ETF, corrosion is\n5 generally not a concern with new aqueous waste streams. Additionally, these waste streams are managed\n6 in a manner that minimizes corrosion. To ensure that a waste will not compromise the integrity of\n7 200 Area ETF tanks and process equipment, each waste stream is assessed for its corrosion potential as\n8 part of the compatibility evaluation. This assessment usually focuses on chloride and fluoride\n9 concentrations; however, the chemistry of each new waste also is evaluated for other parameters that\n10 could cause corrosion.\n11 Compatibility with Liquid Effluent Retention Facility Liner and Piping. As part of the acceptance\n12 process, the criteria of compatibility with the LERF liner materials are evaluated for each aqueous waste\n13 stream. This evaluation is performed using knowledge (as defined by WAC 173-303-040) of constituent\n14 concentrations in the aqueous waste stream or using constituent concentrations obtained by analyzing the\n15 waste stream for the constituents identified in Table B.1 using the analytical methods for these\n16 constituents in Section B.9. Then, the constituent concentrations in the waste stream are compared to the\n17 decision criteria in Table B. 1. If all constituent concentrations are below the decision criteria, then the\n18 waste stream is considered compatible with the LERF liner and may be accepted for treatment.\n19 Otherwise, the waste stream is considered incompatible with the LERF liner, and it cannot be accepted for\n20 treatment in the LERF basins. However, a waste stream may still be acceptable for treatment in ETF if it\n21 is fed directly to ETF, bypassing the LERF Basins. Results of this evaluation are documented in the\n22 Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF File according to Permit Condition 11.1.\n23 The rational for establishing the liner compatibility constituents and decision criteria in Table B. I is as\n24 follows: The high-density polyethylene liners in the LERF basins potentially are vulnerable to the\n25 presence of certain constituents that might be present in some aqueous waste. Using EPA SW-846,\n26 Method 9090, the liner materials were tested to evaluate compatibility between aqueous waste stored in\n27 the LERF and synthetic liner components. Based on the data from the compatibility test and vendor data\n28 on the liner materials, several constituents and parameters were identified as potentially harmful (at high\n29 concentrations) to the integrity of the liners. From these data and the application of safety factors,\n30 concentration limits in Table B. 1 were established.\n31 The strategy for protecting the integrity of a LERF liner is to establish upfront that an aqueous waste is\n32 compatible before the waste is accepted into LERF. Characterization data on each new aqueous waste\n33 stream are compared to the limits outlined in Table B. I to ensure compatibility with the LERF liner\n34 material before acceptance into the LERF.\n35 Before a waste stream is processed at the 242-A Evaporator, the generator reviews DST analytical data\n36 and a process condensate profile is developed to ensure the process condensate is compatible with the\n37 LERF liner. For flow through aqueous wastes like the 200-UP-1 Groundwater, characterization data will\n38 be obtained and reviewed every two years to ensure that liner compatibility is maintained.\n39 In some instances, knowledge may be adequate to determine that an aqueous waste is compatible with the\n40 LERF liner. When knowledge is used, it must satisfy the definition of knowledge in WAC 173-303-040.\n41 In those instances where knowledge is adequate, the waste characterization would likely not require\n42 analysis for these parameters and constituents. Storm water is an example where knowledge is adequate\n43 to determine that this aqueous waste is compatible with the LERF liner.\n44 Compatibility with Other Waste. Some aqueous wastes, especially small volume streams, are\n45 accumulated in the LERF with other aqueous waste. Before acceptance into the LERF, the aqueous waste\n46 stream is evaluated for its compatibility with the resident aqueous waste(s). The evaluation focuses on\n47 the potential for an aqueous waste to react with another waste (40 CFR 264, Appendix V, Examples of\n48 Potentially Incompatible Wastes) including formation of any precipitate in the LERF basins.\nAddendum B.16\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 However, the potential for problems associated with commingling aqueous wastes is very low due to the\n2 dilute nature of the wastes; this evaluation confirms the compatibility of two or more aqueous wastes\n3 from different sources. Compatibility is determined by evaluating parameters such as pH, ammonia, and\n4 chloride. No specific analytical test for compatibility is performed.\n5 If it is determined that an aqueous waste stream is incompatible with other aqueous waste streams,\n6 alternate management scenarios are available. For example, another LERF basin that contains a\n7 compatible aqueous waste(s) might be used, or the aqueous waste stream might be fed directly into\n8 200 Area ETF for treatment. In any case, potentially incompatible waste streams are not mixed, and all\n9 aqueous waste is managed in a way that precludes a reaction, degradation of the liner, or interference with\n10 200 Area ETF treatment process.\n11 B.2.3 Periodic Review Process\n12 In accordance with WAC 173-303-300(4)(a), an influent aqueous waste will be periodically reviewed as\n13 necessary to ensure that the characterization is accurate and current. At a minimum, an aqueous waste\n14 stream will be reviewed in the following situations.\n15 * The LERF and 200 Area ETF management have been notified, or have reason to believe that the\n16 process generating the waste has changed.\n17 * The LERF and 200 Area ETF management note an increase or decrease in the concentration of a\n18 constituent in an aqueous waste stream, beyond the range of concentrations that was described or\n19 predicted in the waste characterization.\n20 * Waste streams will be reviewed every two years.\n21 In these situations, LERF and 200 Area ETF management will review the available information. If\n22 existing analytical information is not sufficient, the generator may be asked to review and update the\n23 current waste characterization, to supply a new WPS, or re-sample and re-analyze the aqueous waste, as\n24 necessary. Other situations that might require a re-evaluation of a waste stream are discussed in the\n25 following sections.\n26 B.2.4 Record/information and Decision\n27 The information and data collected throughout the acceptance process, and the evaluation and decision on\n28 whether to accept an influent aqueous waste stream for treatment or storage in the LERF or 200 Area ETF\n29 are documented as part of Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF File pursuant to\n30 Permit Condition 11.1. Specifically, the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF File\n31 contains the following components on a new influent aqueous waste stream:\n32 * The signed WPS for each aqueous waste stream and analytical data.\n33 * Knowledge used to characterize a dangerous/mixed waste (under WAC 173-303), and\n34 information supporting the adequacy of the knowledge.\n35 * The evaluation on whether an aqueous waste stream meets the waste acceptance criteria,\n36 including:\n37 o The evaluation for regulatory acceptability including appropriate regulatory approvals.\n38 o The evaluation for LERF liner compatibility and for compatibility with other aqueous waste.\n39\nAddendum B.17\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Table B.1.

This treatment exemption is subject to several conditions, including a requirement\n8 that the WAP address the sampling and analysis of the treatment 'residue' [40 CFR 268.4(a)(2)(i) and\n9 WAC 173-303-300(5)(h)(i) and (ii)] to ensure the 'residue' meets applicable treatment standards. Though\n10 the term 'residue' is not specifically defined, this condition further requires that sampling must be\n11 designed to represent the \"sludge and the supernatant\" indicating that a residue may have a sludge (solid)\n12 and supernatant (liquid) component.\nAddendum B.19\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Solid residue is not anticipated to accumulate in a LERF basin for the following reasons:\n2 * Aqueous waste streams containing sludge would not be accepted into LERF under the acceptance\n3 criteria of treatability (Section B.2.2.2. 1).\n4 * No solid residue was reported from process condensate discharged to LERF in 1995.\n5 * The LERF basins are covered and all incoming air first passes through a breather filter.\n6 * No precipitating or flocculating chemicals are used in flow and pH equalization.\n7 * Multiple waste streams managed in a single LERF basin are evaluated for the formation of\n8 precipitates. Wastes that would form precipitates are not accepted for treatment at LERF.\n9 Therefore, the residue component subject to this condition is the supernatant (liquid component).\n10 Additionally, an aqueous waste stream is evaluated for the potential to deposit solids in a LERF basin\n11 (i.e., an aqueous waste that contains suspended solids). If necessary, filtration at the waste source could\n12 be required before acceptance into LERF. Therefore, the residue component in LERF subject to this\n13 condition is the supernatant (liquid component). The contingency for removal of solids will be addressed\n14 during closure in Addendum H, Closure Plan.\n15 The conditions of the treatment exemption also require that treatment residues (i.e., aqueous wastes),\n16 which do not meet the LDR treatment standards \"must be removed at least annually\"\n17 [40 CFR 268.4(a)(2)(ii) incorporated by reference by WAC 173-303-140]. To address the conditions of\n18 this exemption, an influent aqueous waste is sampled and analyzed and the LDR status of the aqueous\n19 waste is established as part of the acceptance process. The LERF basins are then managed such that any\n20 aqueous waste(s), which exceeds an LDR standard is removed annually from a LERF basin, except for a\n21 heel of approximately 1 meter. A heel is required to stabilize the LERF liner. The volume of the heel is\n22 approximately 1.9 million liters.\n23 B.4 Influent Aqueous Waste Sampling and Analysis\n24 The following sections provide a summary of the sampling procedures, frequencies, and analytical\n25 parameters for characterization of influent aqueous waste (Section B.2) and in support of the special\n26 management requirements for aqueous waste in the LERF (Section B.3).\n27 B.4.1 Sampling Procedures\n28 With a few exceptions, generators are responsible for the characterization, including sampling and\n29 analysis, of an influent aqueous waste. Process condensate is either sampled at the 242-A Evaporator or\n30 accumulated in a LERF basin following a 242-A Evaporator campaign and sampled. Other exceptions\n31 will be handled on a case-by-case basis and the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area\n32 ETF File will be maintained at the unit for inspection by Ecology. The following section discusses the\n33 sampling locations, methodologies, and frequencies for these aqueous wastes. For samples collected at\n34 the LERF and 200 Area ETF, unit-specific sampling protocol is followed. The sample containers,\n35 preservation materials, and holding times for each analysis are listed in Section B.9.\n36 B.4.1.1 Batch Samples\n37 In those cases where an aqueous waste is sampled in a LERF basin, samples are collected from four of the\n38 six available sample risers located in each basin, i.e., four separate samples. When LERF levels are low,\n39 fewer than four samples can be taken if the sampling approach is still representative. Though there are\n40 eight sample risers at each basin, one is dedicated to liquid level instrumentation and another is dedicated\n41 as an influent port. Operating experience indicates that four samples adequately capture the spatial\n42 variability of an aqueous waste stream in the LERF basin. Specifically, sections of stainless steel\n43 (or other compatible material) tubing are inserted into the sample riser to an appropriate depth. Using a\n44 portable pump, the sample line is flushed with the aqueous waste and the sample collected. The grab\n45 sample containers typically are filled for volatile organic compounds (VOC) analysis first, followed by\n46 the remainder of the containers for the other parameters.\nAddendum B.20\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Several sample ports are also located at 200 Area ETF, including a valve on the recirculation line at\n2 200 Area ETF surge tank, and a sample valve on a tank discharge pump line at 200 Area ETF Load-in\n3 Station. All samples are obtained at the LERF or 200 Area ETF are collected in a manner consistent with\n4 SW-846 procedures (EPA as amended).\n5 B.4.2 Analytical Rationale\n6 As stated previously, each generator is responsible for designating and characterizing an aqueous waste\n7 stream. Accordingly, each generator samples and analyzes an influent waste stream using the target list\n8 of parameters (Table B.3) for the waste acceptance process. At the discretion of the LERF and ETF\n9 management, a generator may provide knowledge in lieu of some analyses as discussed in\n10 Section B.2.1.1. The LERF and ETF personnel will work with the generator to determine which\n11 parameters are appropriate for the characterization.\n12 The analytical methods for these parameters are provided in Section B.9. All methods are EPA methods\n13 satisfying the requirements of WAC 173-303-110(3). Additional analyses may be required if historical\n14 information and knowledge indicate that an influent aqueous waste contains constituents not included in\n15 the target list of parameters. For example, if knowledge indicates that an aqueous waste contains a\n16 parameter that is regulated by the Groundwater Quality Criteria (WAC 173-200), that parameter(s) would\n17 be added to the suite of analyses required for that aqueous waste stream.\n18 The analytical data for the parameters presented in Table B.3, including VOC, Semi-volatile Organic\n19 Compound (SVOC), metals, anions, and general chemistry parameters are used to define the physical and\n20 chemical properties of the aqueous waste for the following:\n21 * Set operating conditions in the LERF and ETF (e.g., to determine operating configuration, refer\n22 to Section B.2.2.2)\n23 * Identify concentrations of some constituents which may also interfere with, or foul ETF treatment\n24 process (e.g., fouling of the RO membranes, refer to Section B.2.2.2)\n25 * Evaluate LERF liner and piping material compatibility\n26 * Determine treatability to evaluate if applicable constituents in the treated effluent will meet\n27 Discharge Permit and Delisting limits\n28 * Estimate concentrations of some constituents in the waste generated in the secondary treatment\n29 train (i.e., dry powder waste).\n30\nAddendum B.21\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nTable B.3.

To determine whether the Discharge Permit early\n4 warning values, enforcement limits, and the Delisting criteria are met, the effluent routinely is sampled at\n5 the verification tanks. The sampling and analyses performed are described in the following sections.\n6 B.5.1 Rationale for Effluent Analysis Parameter Selection\n7 The parameters measured in the treated effluent are required by the following regulatory documents:\n8 * Delisting criteria from the 200 Area ETF Delisting (40 CFR 261, Appendix IX, Table 2)\n9 * Corresponding State Final Delisting issued pursuant to WAC 173-303-910(3)\n10 * Effluent limits from the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500)\n11 * Early warning values from the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500)\n12 The 200 Area ETF Delisting provides two testing regimes for the treated effluent. Initial verification\n13 testing is performed when a new influent waste stream is processed through the 200 Area ETF.\nAddendum B.22\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 For each 200 Area ETF influent waste stream, the first generated verification tank must be sampled and\n2 analyzed for all delisting constituents and conductivity. Subsequent verification sampling and analysis of\n3 all delisting parameters is performed on every 151 tank of that 200 Area ETF influent waste stream. If\n4 the concentration of any analyte is found to exceed a Washington State Waste Discharge Permit\n5 (No. ST 4500), enforcement limit or a Delisting criterion, the contents of the verification tank are\n6 reprocessed and/or re-analyzed. The next verification tank generated is also sampled for all delisting\n7 constituents. If the concentration of any analyte exceeds an early warning value, an early warning value\n8 report is prepared and submitted to Ecology.\n9 B.5.2 Effluent Sampling Strategy: Methods, Location, Analyses, and Frequency\n10 Effluent sampling methods and locations, the analyses performed, and frequency of sampling are\n11 discussed in the following sections.\n12 B.5.2.1 Effluent Sampling Method and Location\n13 Samples of treated effluent are collected and analyzed to verify the treatment process using 200 Area ETF\n14 specific sampling protocol. These verification samples are collected at a sampling port on the verification\n15 tank recirculation line. Section B.9 presents the sample containers, preservatives, and holding times for\n16 each parameter monitored in the effluent.\n17 B.5.2.2 Analyses of Effluent\n18 The parameters required by the current Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500), and\n19 Final Delisting 200 Area ETF, conditions are presented in Table B.4. The analytical methods and PQLs\n20 associated with each parameter are provided in Section B.9. The methods and PQLs are equivalent to\n21 those used in the analysis of influent aqueous waste.\n22 B.5.2.3 Frequency of Sampling\n23 Treated effluent is tested for all parameters listed in Table B.4 on a frequency satisfying the permit\n24 conditions of the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500), and the 200 Area ETF\n25 Delisting. This effluent must meet the Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500), and\n26 200 Area ETF Delisting limits associated with these parameters. Grab samples are collected from each\n27 verification tank.\n28 During operation of 200 Area ETF, if one or more of the constituents exceeds a Delisting criterion, the\n29 Delisting conditions require:\n30 * The characterization data and processing strategy of the influent waste stream be reviewed and\n31 changed accordingly to ensure the contents of subsequent tanks do not exceed the Delisting\n32 criteria\n33 * The contents of the verification tank are recycled for additional treatment. The contents that are\n34 recycled are resampled after treatment to ensure no constituents exceed a Delisting criteria\n35 * The contents of the following verification tank are sampled for compliance with the Delisting\n36 criteria.\n37 * Treated effluent that does not meet Washington State Waste Discharge Permit (No. ST 4500) is\n38 not discharged to the SALDS until the tank has been retreated and/or reanalyzed.\n39 B.6 Effluent Treatment Facility Generated Waste Sampling and Analysis\n40 The wastes discussed in this section include the wastes generated at 200 Area ETF and are managed in the\n41 container storage areas of 200 Area ETF. This section describes the characterization of the following\n42 secondary waste streams generated within 200 Area ETF:\n43 * Secondary waste generated from the treatment process, including the following waste forms:\n44 o dry powder waste\nAddendum B.23\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 o concentrate tanks slurry\n2 o sludge removed from process tanks\n3 * Waste generated by operations and maintenance activities\n4 * Miscellaneous waste generated within 200 Area ETF.\n5 For each waste stream described, a characterization methodology and rationale are provided, and\n6 sampling requirements are addressed.\n7 B.6.1 Secondary Waste Generated from Treatment Processes\n8 The following terms used in this Section, including powder, dry powder, waste powder, and dry waste\n9 powder, are equivalent to the term 'dry powder waste'.\n10 A dry powder waste is generated from the secondary treatment train, from the treatment of an aqueous\n11 waste. Waste is received in the secondary treatment train in waste receiving tanks where it is fed into an\n12 evaporator. Concentrate waste from the evaporator is then fed to a concentrate tank. From these tanks,\n13 the waste is fed to a thin film dryer and dried into a powder, and collected into containers. The containers\n14 are filled via a remotely controlled system. The condensed overheads from the evaporator and thin film\n15 dryer are returned to the surge tank to be fed to the primary treatment train.\n16 Occasionally, salts from the treatment process (e.g., calcium sulfate and magnesium hydroxide)\n17 accumulate in process tanks as sludge. Because processing these salts could cause fouling in the thin film\n18 dryer, and to allow uninterrupted operation of the treatment process, the sludge is removed and placed in\n19 containers. The sludge is dewatered and the supernate is pumped back to 200 Area ETF for treatment.\n20 The secondary treatment system typically receives and processes the following by-products generated\n21 from the primary treatment train:\n22 * Concentrate from the first RO stage\n23 * Backwash from the rough and fine filters\n24 * Regeneration waste from the ion exchange system\n25 * Spillage or overflow collected in the process sumps.\n26 In an alternate operating scenario, some aqueous wastes may be fed to the secondary treatment train\n27 before the primary treatment train.\n28 B.6.1.1 Special Requirements Pertaining to Land Disposal Restrictions\n29 Containers of 200 Area ETF secondary waste are transferred to a storage or final disposal unit, as\n30 appropriate (e.g., the Central Waste Complex or to the Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility).\n31 200 Area ETF personnel provide the analytical characterization data and necessary knowledge for the\n32 waste to be managed by the receiving staff, and for the appropriate LDR documentation.\n33 The following information on the secondary waste is included on the LDR documentation provided to the\n34 receiving unit:\n35 * Dangerous waste numbers (as applicable)\n36 * Determination on whether the waste is restricted from land disposal according to the requirements\n37 of 40 CFR 268 incorporated by reference by WAC 173-303-140 (i.e., the LDR status of the\n38 waste)\n39 The waste tracking information associated with the transfer of waste\n40 * Waste analysis results.\nAddendum B.24\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 B.6.1.2 Sampling Methods\n2 The dry powder waste and containerized sludge are sampled from containers using the principles\n3 presented in SW-846 (EPA as amended) and ASTM Methods (American Society for Testing Materials),\n4 as referenced in WAC 173-303-110(2). The sample container requirements, sample preservation\n5 requirements, and maximum holding times for each of the parameters analyzed in either matrix are\n6 presented in Section B.9.\n7 Concentrate tank waste samples are collected from recirculation lines, which provide mixing in the tank\n8 during pH adjustment and prevent caking. The protocol for concentrate tank sampling prescribes opening\n9 a sample port in the recirculation line to collect samples directly into sample containers. The sample port\n10 line is flushed before collecting a grab sample. The VOC sampling typically is performed first for grab\n11 samples.

A batch is defined as any volume of aqueous\n9 waste that is being treated under consistent and constant process conditions.\n10 When personnel exposures are of concern, one representative sample will be collected from the\n11 concentrate tank, if waste from the concentrate tank. The sample will be analyzed for the appropriate\n12 parameters identified in Table B.5 based on the needs identified from evaluating influent waste analysis\n13 data. If sampling of the concentrate tank is not technically practicable for purposes of designating the\n14 powder, direct sampling of the dry powder will be used to make determinations on the dry powder. The\n15 dry powder or concentrate tanks will be resampled in the following situations:\n16 * Change in influent characterization.\n17 * Change in process chemistry, as indicated by in-line monitoring of conductivity and pH.\n18 * The LERF and 200 Area ETF management have been notified, or have reason to believe that the\n19 process generating the waste has changed (for example, a source change such as a change in the\n20 well-head for groundwater that significantly changes the aqueous waste characterization).\n21 * The LERF and 200 Area ETF management note an increase or decrease in the concentration of a\n22 constituent in an aqueous waste stream, beyond the range of concentrations that was described or\n23 predicted in the waste characterization.\n24 B.6.2 Operations and Maintenance Waste Generated at the 200 Area Effluent\n25 Treatment Facility\n26 Operation and maintenance of process and ancillary equipment generates additional routine waste. These\n27 waste materials are segregated to ensure proper handling and disposition, and to minimize the\n28 commingling of potentially dangerous waste with nondangerous waste. The following waste streams are\n29 anticipated to be generated during routine operation and maintenance of 200 Area ETF. This waste might\n30 or might not be dangerous waste, depending on the nature of the material and its exposure to a dangerous\n31 waste.\n32 * Spent lubricating oils and paint waste from pumps, the dryer rotor, compressors, blowers, and\n33 general maintenance activities.\n34 * Spent filter media and process filters.\n35 * Spent ion exchange resin.\n36 * High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters.\n37 * UV light tubes.\n38 * RO membranes.\n39 * Equipment that cannot be returned to service.\n40 * Other miscellaneous waste that might contact a dangerous waste (e.g., plastic sheeting, glass,\n41 rags, paper, waste solvent, or aerosol cans).\n42 These waste streams are stored at 200 Area ETF before being transferred for final treatment, storage, or\n43 disposal as appropriate.\n44\nAddendum B.27\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 This waste is characterized and designated using knowledge (from previously determined influent\n2 aqueous waste composition information); analytical data; and material safety data sheets (MSDS) of the\n3 chemical products present in the waste or used (the data sheets are maintained at 200 Area ETF).\n4 Sampling of these waste streams is not anticipated; however, if an unidentified or unlabeled waste is\n5 discovered, that waste is sampled. This 'unknown' waste is sampled and analyzed for the parameters in\n6 Table B.5 as appropriate, and will be designated according to Washington state regulatory requirements.\n7 The specific analytical methods for these analyses are provided in Section B.9.\n8 B.6.3 Other Waste Generated at the 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility\n9 There are two other potential sources of waste at 200 Area ETF: spills and/or overflows, and discarded\n10 chemical products. Spills may be subject to the requirements of Permit Condition II.E. Spilled material\n11 that potentially might be dangerous waste generally is either containerized or routed to 200 Area ETF\n12 sumps where the material is transferred either to the surge tank for treatment or to the secondary treatment\n13 train. In most cases, knowledge and the use of MSDSs are sufficient to designate the waste material. If\n14 the source of the spilled material is unknown and the material cannot be routed to 200 Area ETF sumps, a\n15 sample of the waste is collected and analyzed according to Table B.5, as necessary, for appropriate\n16 characterization of the waste. Unknown wastes will be designated according to Washington State\n17 regulatory requirements at WAC 173-303-070. The specific analytical methods for these analyses are\n18 provided in Section B.9.\n19 A discarded chemical product waste stream could be generated if process chemicals, cleaning agents, or\n20 maintenance products become contaminated or are otherwise rendered unusable. In all cases, these\n21 materials are appropriately containerized and designated. Sampling is performed, as appropriate, for\n22 waste designation.\n23 Table B.5. 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility Generated Waste -Sampling and\n24 Analysis\nParameter' Rationale\n* Total solids or percent water2 * Calculate dry weight concentrations\n* Volatile organic compounds' * LDR -verify treatment standards\n* Semivolatile organic compounds' * LDR -verify treatment standards\n* Metals (arsenic, barium, cadmium, * Waste designation\nchromium, lead, mercury, selenium, * LDR -verify treatment standards\nsilver)\n* Cation and anions of concern * Address receiving TSD unit waste acceptance\nrequirements\n* pH * Waste designation\n25 1 For influent and concentrate tank samples, the total sample (solid plus liquid) is analyzed and the analytical result\n26 is expressed on a dry weight basis. The result for toxicity characteristic metal and organic is divided by a factor\n27 of 20 and compared to the toxicity characteristic (TC) constituent limits [WAC 173-303-090(8)]. If the TC limit\n28 is met or exceeded, the waste is designated accordingly. All measured parameters are compared against the\n29 corresponding treatment standards.\n30 2 Total solids or percent water are not determined for unknown waste and dry powder waste samples and are\n31 analyzed in maintenance waste and sludge samples, as appropriate ( i.e., percent water might not be required for\n32 such routine maintenance waste as aerosol cans, fluorescent tubes, waste oils, batteries, etc., or sludge that has\n33 dried).\n34 3 VOC and/or SVOC analysis of secondary waste is required unless influent characterization data and knowledge\n35 indicate that the constituent will not be in the final secondary waste at or above the LDR.\n36 LDR = land disposal restrictions\n37 TSD = treatment, storage, and/or disposal\nAddendum B.28\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 B.7 Quality Assurance/Quality Control\n2 The following quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) plan for LERF and 200 Area ETF is provided\n3 as required by WAC 173-303-810(6) and follows the guidelines of EPA QA/G-5.\n4 B.7.1 Project Management\n5 The following sections address project administrative functions and approaches.\n6 B.7.1.1.1 Project Organization\n7 Overall management of the LERF/200 Area ETF is performed by the Facility Manager, who is\n8 responsible for safe operation of the facility, including implementation of this QA/QC plan and\n9 compliance with applicable permits and regulations. The Facility Manager also provides retention of\n10 project records in accordance with this plan. Assisting the Facility Manager is an Environmental Field\n11 Representative that monitors compliance, reviews new requirements and regulations, and interfaces with\n12 EPA and Ecology. Also assisting the Facility Manager is a QA representative who is responsible for\n13 implementing the QA program at the facility.\n14 Reporting to the Facility Manager are several support groups. The Operations group consists of trained\n15 personnel who operate the plant, including operators performing sampling activities such as collection,\n16 packaging, and transportation of samples to the laboratory. The Maintenance group is responsible for\n17 performing calibrations and preventative maintenance on facility equipment, including pH, conductivity,\n18 and flow meters required by environmental permits. The Engineering group monitors the process with\n19 online instruments and sampling for process control. The Engineering group also performs waste\n20 acceptance, and environmental compliance activities, including scheduling sampling, generating data\n21 forms, and reviewing data.\n22 B.7.1.2 Special Training\n23 Individuals involved in sampling, analysis, and data review will be trained and qualified to implement\n24 safely the activities addressed in this WAP and QA/QC plan. Training will conform to the training\n25 requirements specified in WAC 173-303-330 and the LERF/200 Area ETF Dangerous Waste Training\n26 Plan (Addendum F). Training records will be maintained in accordance with Section B.7.1.3 of this\n27 WAP.\n28 B.7.1.3 Documentation and Records\n29 Sample records are documented as part of the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area\n30 ETF File pursuant to Permit Condition 11.1. These documents and records include the following:\n31 * Training\n32 * Chains of Custody for all regulatory sampling performed by LERF and 200 Area ETF\n33 * Data Summary Reports\n34 * QA/QC reports\n35 * Assessment reports\n36 * Instrument inspection, maintenance, and calibration logs\n37 B.7.2 Data Quality Parameters and Criteria\n38 Data quality parameters are listed by EPA QA/G-5S, Guidance for Choosing a Sampling Design for\n39 Environmental Data Collection as:\n40 * Purpose of Data Collection (e.g. determining if a parameter exceeds a threshold level).\n41 * Spatial and Temporal Boundaries of Study.\n42 * Preliminary Estimation of Sample Support (volume that each sample represents).\nAddendum B.29\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * Statistical Parameter of Interest (e.g. mean, percentile, percentage).\n2 * Limits on Decision Error/Precision (e.g. false acceptance error, false rejection error).\n3 The parameters for the first four bullets (limits, sample points, frequency of samples, etc.) are already\n4 established in the permits, delisting petition, and this WAP. The focus of this QA/QC plan is on limits on\n5 decision error/precision.\n6 The data quality parameters were chosen to ensure Limits on Decision Error/Precision are appropriate for\n7 purposes of using the data to demonstrate compliance with permits, delisting exclusion limits, and this\n8 WAP. The principal quality parameters are precision, accuracy, representativeness, comparability, and\n9 completeness. Secondary data parameters of importance include sensitivity and detection levels. The\n10 data quality parameters and the data acceptance criteria are discussed below.\n11 B.7.2.1 Precision\n12 Precision is a measure of agreement among replicate measurements of the same property, under\n13 prescribed similar conditions. Precision is expressed in terms of the relative percent difference (RPD) for\n14 duplicate measurements. QA/QC sample types that test precision include field and laboratory duplicates\n15 and spike duplicates. The RPDs for laboratory duplicates and/or matrix spike duplicates will be routinely\n16 calculated.\n17 RPD = (100)absolute value of sample result -duplicate sample result\naverage of sample result + duplicate sample result\n18 Matrix spike duplicates are replicates of matrix spike samples that are analyzed with every analytical\n19 batch that contains an ETF treated effluent sample. The precision of the analytical methods are estimated\n20 from the results of the matrix spike (MS) and the matrix spike duplicate (MSD) for selected analytes.\n21 Matrix spike analyses cannot be performed for certain analytical methods, including conductivity, pH,\n22 and total dissolved solids. Duplicate analyses are used to determine the RPD for these methods. The\n23 precision acceptance criteria are specified in Table B.6.\n24 B.7.2.2 Accuracy\n25 Accuracy assesses the closeness of the measured value to an accepted reference value. Accuracy of\n26 analytical results is typically assessed using matrix spikes. A matrix spike is the addition of a known\n27 amount of the analyte to the sample matrix being analyzed. Accuracy is expressed as a percent recovery\n28 of the spiked samples.\n29 Percent Recovery = 100 (matrix spike sample result -sample result\nspiked amount\n30 Matrix spike analyses cannot be performed on certain analytical methods, including conductivity, pH, and\n31 total dissolved solids. The percent recovery for the laboratory control standard samples demonstrates that\n32 these methods are working properly and gives an estimate of the method's accuracy. The percent\n33 recovery will be routinely calculated.\n34 Accuracy criteria are established to provide confidence that the result is below the action level. Therefore\n35 the closer the result is to the action level the higher the degree of accuracy needed. The upper and lower\n36 accuracy acceptance criteria are specified in Table B.6. The criteria are reasonable values based on\n37 previous analysis of constituents in the delisting exclusion, or similar constituents.\n38 B.7.2.3 Representativeness\n39 Representativeness expresses the degree to which data accurately and precisely represent selected\n40 characteristics of a parameter at a sampling point or process condition.\n41\nAddendum B.30\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Because of the matrix being analyzed, dilute aqueous solution, it is not expected that representativeness\n2 will be of concern, except when there are potential for changes to process conditions such as the facility\n3 influent concentrations or waste processing strategy. Sampling due to these changes in process conditions\n4 is addressed in Section B.6.1.3 of this WAP.\n5 The representativeness of a sample may be compromised by the presence of contaminants introduced in\n6 the field or the laboratory. To determine if contamination may be present, a blank sample of reagent\n7 water is analyzed. A method blank is performed by the laboratory on every batch of 20 samples being\n8 analyzed at the same time. The presence of a constituent in the sample and the blank sample indicates\n9 contamination has occurred.\n10 B.7.2.4 Completeness\n11 Completeness is a measure of the amount of valid data obtained from a measurement system, expressed\n12 as a percentage of the number of valid measurements that were planned to be collected. Lack of\n13 completeness is sometimes caused by loss of a sample, loss of data, or inability to collect the planned\n14 number of samples. Incompleteness also occurs when data are discarded because they are of unknown or\n15 unacceptable quality. Since most regulatory sampling events performed by LERF/200 Area ETF involve\n16 a single sample, all analysis must be complete and valid.\n17 B.7.2.5 Comparability\n18 Comparability is the confidence with which one data set can be compared to another. Comparability is\n19 achieved by using sampling and analytical techniques, which provide for measurements that are\n20 consistent and representative of the media and conditions measured. In laboratory analysis, the term\n21 comparability focuses on method type, holding times, stability issues, and aspects of overall analytical\n22 quantitation.\n23 B.7.2.6 Sensitivity and Detection Levels\n24 Sensitivity is the measure of the concentration at which an analytical method can positively identify and\n25 report analytical results. Sensitivity represents the maximum value for a detection level that will\n26 reasonably assure the results are below the established limits. The analytical method selected by\n27 LERF/200 Area ETF should have a detection level for each constituent that is below the sensitivity. The\n28 preferred detection level is the practical quantitation limit (PQL), which is lowest concentration that can\n29 be reliably measured during routine laboratory conditions. If the method PQL cannot meet the sensitivity\n30 for some constituents, the minimum concentration or attribute that can be measured by a method (method\n31 detection limit) or by an instrument (instrument detection limit) may be used. The sensitivity levels,\n32 specified in Table B.6, are derived from the delisting limits, water discharge limits, and uncertainty\n33 values, which are based on the required precision and accuracy for each constituent.\n34 B.7.3 Data Generation and Acquisition\n35 The following section addresses QA requirements for data generation and acquisition.\n36 B.7.3.1 Sampling Method\n37 LERF/200 Area ETF samples required by the permits and delisting are collected as grab samples.\n38 Sampling for the purpose of waste designation of secondary waste is performed using grab, composite,\n39 thief, scoop, or composite liquid waste sampler (COLIWASA). The selection of the sample collection\n40 device depends on the type of sample, the sample container, the sampling location, and the nature and\n41 distribution of the waste components. In general, the methodologies used for specific materials\n42 correspond to those referenced to WAC 173-303-110(2). The selection and use of the sampling device is\n43 supervised or performed by a person thoroughly familiar with the sampling requirements.\n44 The following protocol applies to all sampling methods:\n45 * All containers will be filled within as short a time period as reasonably achievable.\nAddendum B.31\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * Volatile Organic Analysis (VOA) sample containers will be filled first, and prior to any\n2 subdividing of a composited sample.\n3 * VOA samples consisting of a set of two or more sample containers will be filled sequentially.\n4 The sample containers are considered equivalent and given identical sampling times.\n5 * All VOA sample containers must have no headspace and be free of trapped air bubbles.\n6 * Grab sample protocol includes:\n7 o Sample lines should be as short as reasonably achievable and free of traps and pockets in\n8 which solids might settle.\n9 o The sample line should be flushed before sampling with a minimum volume equivalent to\n10 three times the sample line volume.\n11 0 Contamination to the sample from contact with the internal and external surfaces of the tap\n12 should be minimized.\n13 Thief and COLIWASA samplers are used to sample liquid waste containers such as drums. Scoop\n14 samplers are used to sample powder waste generated in the thin-film dryer. Sample requirements for\n15 these samples include:\n16 * Thief or COLIWASA sampler, the sampler should be lowered into the liquid slowly so the level\n17 of the liquid inside and outside the sampler tube remain about the same.\n18 * When lifting the thief or COLIWASA sampler from the solution, the outside should be wiped\n19 down, or the excess water allowed to drip off, before filling the sample container.\n20 B.7.3.2 Sample Handling, Custody, and Shipping\n21 The proper handling of sample bottles after sampling is important to ensure the samples are free of\n22 contamination and to demonstrate the samples have not been tampered with.\n23 B.7.3.2.1 Chain-of-Custody\n24 Evidence of collection, shipment, receipt at the laboratory, and laboratory custody until disposal will be\n25 documented using a chain-of-custody form. The chain-of-custody form will, as a minimum identify\n26 sample identification number, sampling date and time, sampling location, sample bottle type and number,\n27 analyses to be performed, and preservation method.\n28 The operations person who signs as the collector on the chain of custody is the first custodian of the\n29 samples. A custodian must maintain continuous custody of sample containers at all times from the time\n30 the sample is taken until delivery to the laboratory or until delivery to a common carrier for shipment to\n31 an off-site location. Custody is maintained by any of the following:\n32 * The custodian has the samples in view, or has placed the samples in locked storage, or keeps the\n33 samples within a secured area (e.g., controlled by authorized personnel only), or has applied a\n34 tamper-indicating device, such as evidence tape, to the sample containers or shipping containers.\n35 * The custodian has taken physical possession of the samples or the shipping containers sealed with\n36 an intact tamper-indicating device, such as evidence tape.\n37 B.7.3.2.2 Sample Preservation, Containers, and Holding Time\n38 Table B.6 lists the sample container, preservation method, and holding time requirements for different\n39 types of analyses. These parameters are based on the requirements of 40 CFR 136, Table II.\n40 B.7.3.3 Instrument Calibration and Preventive Maintenance\n41 LERF/200 Area ETF uses instruments to monitor operations and meet regulatory requirements. This\n42 includes continuous pH and conductivity monitors required by facility permits and delisting. All\n43 instruments are calibrated according to frequencies and tolerances established by the LERF/200 Area ETF\n44 engineering group.\nAddendum B.32\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Calibrations and other maintenance actions are scheduled and tracked by LERF/200 Area ETF\n2 maintenance group using a preventive maintenance database. Measuring and test equipment used for\n3 instrument calibration is controlled, calibrated at specified intervals, and maintained to establish accuracy\n4 limits.\n5 B.7.4 Assessment and Oversight\n6 Quality programs can only be effective if meaningful assessments are performed to monitor and respond\n7 to issues associated with program performance. Routine assessment of data is performed as part of the\n8 validation process discussed in Section B.7.5.1.\n9 B.7.4.1 Assessments and Response\n10 Management assessments are conducted by first line management and subject matter experts, focusing on\n11 procedural adequacy, compliance, and overall effectiveness of the program. Management assessments of\n12 the sample program typically include the LERF and 200 Area ETF QA representative. Each management\n13 assessment has a performance objective or lines of inquiry. Examples may include personnel training,\n14 proper performance of sample custody, or completeness of sampling records.\n15 B.7.4.2 Reports to Management\n16 Results of performance assessments, including any issues identified, are provided to the LERF and\n17 200 Area ETF Facility Manager in a written report. The Facility Manager is responsible to correct all\n18 findings from the report.\n19 B.7.5 Verification and Validation of Analytical Data\n20 The data verification and validation processes will ensure that the data resulting from the selected\n21 analytical method are consistent with requirements specified in this QA/QC plan.\n22 B.7.5.1 Data Verification\n23 The primary data reporting will be by electronic data systems. Data verification will be performed on\n24 laboratory data packages that support environmental compliance to ensure that their content is complete\n25 and in order. A review of the data package will be performed to ensure that:\n26 * The data package contains the required technical information.\n27 * Deficiencies are identified and documented.\n28 * Identified deficiencies are corrected by the laboratory and the appropriate revisions are made.\n29 * Deficient pages are replaced with the laboratory corrections.\n30 * A copy of the completed verification report is placed in the data file.\n31 B.7.5.2 Data Validation\n32 Data validation ensures that the data resulting from analytical measurements meet the quality\n33 requirements specified in the QA/QC plan. Data validation will be performed on data packages that\n34 support environmental compliance.\n35 The following are included in data validation:\n36 * Chain-of-Custody (COC) -Verify the COC shows unbroken custody from sampling through\n37 receipt at the laboratory.\n38 * Request analysis -Review the sample results to verify the requested analysis was performed. If\n39 an alternate method was used, verify permit-required detection limits were met.\n40 * Holding times -Review the sample results to verify the analyses were performed within required\n41 holing times and where applicable, extraction times.\nAddendum B.33\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * Blank -Review the results of trip, field, and equipment blank samples to verify the sample results\n2 are not compromised by contamination.\n3 * Laboratory QC -Verify the laboratory QC was completed and there are no outstanding problems\n4 B.8 References\n5 DOE/RL-92-72, 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility Delisting Petition, Revision 1, 1993,\n6 U.S. Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office, Richland, Washington.\n7 Ecology, 1996b, The Washington State Department ofEcology (Ecology) Regulatory Interpretation of the\n8 Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (LERF) Land Disposal Restriction Exemption, letter from\n9 Washington State Department of Ecology to T.

PROCESS INFORMATION\n2 This addendum provides a detailed discussion of the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (LERF) and\n3 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility (200 Area ETF) processes and equipment. The LERF and 200 Area\n4 ETF comprise an aqueous waste treatment system located in the 200 East Area that provides storage and\n5 treatment for a variety of aqueous mixed waste. This aqueous waste includes process condensate from\n6 the 242-A Evaporator and other aqueous waste generated from onsite remediation and waste management\n7 activities.\n8 The LERF consists of three lined surface impoundments, or basins. Aqueous waste from LERF is\n9 pumped to the 200 Area ETF for treatment in a series of process units, or systems, that remove or destroy\n10 essentially all of the dangerous waste constituents. The treated effluent is discharged to a State-Approved\n11 Land Disposal Site (SALDS) north of the 200 West Area, under the authority of a Washington State\n12 Waste Discharge Permit (Ecology 2000) and the Final Delisting (40 CFR 261, Appendix IX, Table 2).\n13 Both LERF and 200 Area ETF waste processing operations are controlled in a central Control room\n14 located in the 200 Area ETF building. The ETF control room is staffed continuously during ETF\n15 processing operations. Processing operations are defined as when liquid transfers of any sort are\n16 occurring to/from/within the LERF and ETF or when wastes are being treated at ETF'. Examples of\n17 processing operations include, but are not limited to, when liquid waste are transferred to/from the LERF\n18 basins [see section C. 1], during active liquid waste treatment/processing at the ETF (e.g., liquid waste\n19 treatment in tanks and liquid waste movement between primary and secondary treatment train processes\n20 and/or other ETF tanks [see Section C.2]), and liquid waste receipts at the load-in station [see Section\n21 C.2.1]). Section C.2.5.1 describes the centralized computer system (i.e., monitor and control system or\n22 MCS) that is located at the ETF control room and other locations at the ETF facility. This MCS monitors\n23 the performance of the ETF operations and records alarms from various equipment as described in this\n24 Addendum C and Addendum I, Inspection Requirements. At times when processing operations are not\n25 occurring, the ETF Control room is not manned continuously, and alarms are monitored daily as specified\n26 in Addendum I.\n27 C.1 Liquid Effluent Retention Facility Process Description\n28 Each of the three LERF basins has an operating capacity of 29.5-million liters. The LERF receives\n29 aqueous waste through several inlets including the following:\n30 * A pipeline that connects LERF with the 242-A Evaporator.\n31 * A pipeline from the 200 West Area.\n32 * A pipeline that connects LERF to the Load-In Station at the 200 Area ETF.\n33 * A series of sample ports located at each basin.\n34 Figure C.1 presents a general layout of LERF and associated pipelines. Aqueous waste from LERF is\n35 pumped to the 200 Area ETF through one of two double-walled fiberglass transfer pipelines. Effluent\n36 from the 200 Area ETF also can be transferred back to the LERF through one of these transfer pipelines.\n37 These pipelines are equipped with leak detection located in the annulus between the inner and outer pipes.\n38 In the event that these leak detectors are not in service, the pipelines are visually inspected during\n39 transfers for leakage by opening the secondary containment drain lines located at the 200 Area ETF end\n40 of the transfer pipelines.\n41 Each basin is equipped with six available sample risers constructed of 6-inch perforated pipe. A seventh\n42 sample riser in each basin is dedicated to influent aqueous waste receipt piping (except for aqueous waste\n43 received from the 242-A Evaporator), and an eighth riser in each basin contains liquid level\n44 instrumentation.\nI Liquid transfers does not include standard facility operations of liquid recirculation (e.g. for pump seals), sanitary water and\ncooling water, and outdoor rainwater management activities.\nAddendum C.6\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Each riser extends along the sides of each basin from the top to the bottom of the basin and allows\n2 samples to be collected from any depth. Personnel access to these sample ports is from the perimeter area\n3 of the basins. A catch basin is provided at the northwest corner of each LERF basin for aboveground\n4 piping and manifolds for transfer pumps. Aqueous waste from the 242-A Evaporator is transferred\n5 through piping which ties into piping at the catch basins. Under routine operations, a submersible pump\n6 is used to transfer aqueous waste from a LERF basin to the 200 Area ETF for processing or for basin-to-\n7 basin transfers. This pump is connected to a fixed manifold on one of four available risers.\n8 Each basin consists of a multilayer liner system supported by a concrete anchor wall around the basin\n9 perimeter and a soil-bentonite clay underlayment. The multilayer liner system consists of a primary liner\n10 in contact with the aqueous waste, a layer of bentonite carpet, a geonet, a geotextile, a gravel layer, and a\n11 secondary liner that rests on the bentonite underlayment. Any aqueous waste leakage through the primary\n12 liner flows through the geonet and gravel to a leachate collection system. The leachate flows to a sump at\n13 the northwest corner of each basin, where the leachate is pumped up the side slope and back into the basin\n14 above the primary liner. Each liner is constructed of high-density polyethylene. A floating cover made of\n15 very low-density polyethylene is stretched over each basin above the primary liner. These covers serve to\n16 keep unwanted material from entering the basins, and to minimize evaporation of the liquid contents.\n17 C.2 Effluent Treatment Facility Process Description\n18 The 200 Area ETF is designed as a flexible treatment system that provides treatment for contaminants\n19 anticipated in process condensate and other onsite aqueous waste. The design influent flow rate into the\n20 200 Area ETF is approximately 570 liters per minute, with planned outages for activities such as\n21 maintenance on the 200 Area ETF systems. Maintenance outages typically are scheduled between\n22 treating a batch of aqueous waste, referred to as treatment campaigns. The effluent flow (or volume) is\n23 equivalent to the influent flow (or volume).\n24 The 200 Area ETF generally receives aqueous waste directly from the LERF. However, aqueous waste\n25 also can be transferred from tanker trucks at the Load-In Station to the 200 Area ETF and from containers\n26 (e.g., carboys, drums) directly to ETF. Aqueous waste is treated and stored in the 200 Area ETF process\n27 areas in a series of tank systems, referred to as process units. Within the ETF, waste also is managed in\n28 containers through treatment and/or storage. Figure C.2 provides the relative locations of the process and\n29 container storage areas within the ETF.\n30 The process units are grouped in either the primary or the secondary treatment train. The primary\n31 treatment train provides for the removal or destruction of contaminants. Typically, the secondary\n32 treatment train processes the waste by-products from the primary treatment train by reducing the volume\n33 of waste. In the secondary treatment train, contaminants are concentrated and dried to a powder. The\n34 liquid fraction is routed to the primary treatment train. Figure C.3 provides an overview of the layout of\n35 the ETF, 2025E Building). Figure C.4 presents the 200 Area ETF floor plan, the relative locations of the\n36 individual process units and associated tanks within the ETF, and the location of the Load-In Station.\n37 The dry powder waste and maintenance and operations waste are containerized and stored or treated in\n38 the container storage areas or in collection or treatment areas within the Process Area. Secondary\n39 containment is provided for all containers and tank systems (including ancillary equipment) housed\n40 within the ETF. The trenches and floor of the 200 Area ETF comprise the secondary containment system.\n41 The floor includes approximately a 15.2-centimeter rise (berm) along the containing walls of the process\n42 and container storage areas. Any spilled or leaked material from within the process area or container\n43 storage area is collected into trenches that feed into either sump tank I or sump tank 2.\n44 From these sump tanks, the spilled or leaked material (i.e., waste) is fed to either the surge tank and\n45 processed in the primary treatment train or the secondary waste receiving tanks and processed in the\n46 secondary treatment train. All tank systems outside of the 200 Area ETF are provided with a secondary\n47 containment system.\n48 In the following sections, several figures are provided that present general illustrations of the treatment\n49 units and the relation to the process.\nAddendum C.7\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 C.2.1 Load-in Station\n2 The 200 Area ETF receives aqueous waste from LERF or the Load-In Station. The 200 Area ETF\n3 Load-In Station, located due east of the surge tank and outside of the perimeter fence (Figure C.4), was\n4 designed and constructed to provide the capability to unload, store, and transfer aqueous waste to the\n5 LERF or 200 Area ETF from tanker trucks and other containers (such as drums). The Load-In Station\n6 consists of two truck bays equipped with load-in tanks, transfer pumps, filtration system, level\n7 instrumentation for tanker trucks, leak detection capabilities for the containment basin and transfer line,\n8 and an underground transfer line that connects to lines in the surge tank berm, allowing transfers to either\n9 the 200 Area ETF surge tank or LERF. The Load-In Station is covered with a steel building for weather\n10 protection. Tanker trucks and other containers are used to unload aqueous waste at the Load-In Station.\n11 To perform unloading, the tanker truck is positioned on a truck pad, a 'load-in' transfer line is connected\n12 to the truck, and the tanker contents are pumped into one of the Load-In Station tanks, the surge tank, or\n13 directly to the LERF. For container unloading, the container is placed on the truck pad and the container\n14 contents are pumped into one of the Load-In Station tanks, the surge tank, or directly to the LERF.\n15 During unloading operations, solids may be removed from the waste by pumping the contents of the\n16 tanker truck or container through a filtration system. If solids removal is not needed, the filtration system\n17 is not used and the solution is transferred directly to the Load-In Station tanks, surge tank, or to LERF.\n18 Any leaks at the Load-In Station drain to the sump. A leak detector in the sump alarms locally and in the\n19 200 Area ETF control room. Alarms are monitored continuously in the control room during Load-in\n20 Station transfers and at least daily at times when waste is not being received at the Load-In Station.\n21 Alternatively, leaks can be visually detected.\n22 C.2.2 Effluent Treatment Facility Operating Configuration\n23 Because the operating configuration of the 200 Area ETF can be adjusted or modified, most aqueous\n24 waste streams can be effectively treated to below Delisting and Discharge Permit limits. The operating\n25 configuration of the 200 Area ETF depends on the unique chemistry of an aqueous waste stream(s).\n26 Before an aqueous waste stream is accepted for treatment, the waste is characterized and evaluated.\n27 Information from the characterization is used to adjust the treatment process or change the configuration\n28 of the 200 Area ETF process units, as necessary, to optimize the treatment process for a particular\n29 aqueous waste stream.\n30 Typically, an aqueous waste is processed first in the primary treatment train, where the 200 Area ETF is\n31 configured to process an aqueous waste through the UV/OX unit first, followed by the RO unit.\n32 However, under an alternate configuration, an aqueous waste could be processed in the RO unit first. For\n33 example, high concentrations of nitrates in an aqueous waste might interfere with the performance of the\n34 UV/OX. In this case, the 200 Area ETF could be configured to process the waste in the RO unit before\n35 the UV/OX unit.\n36 The flexibility of the 200 Area ETF also allows some aqueous waste to be processed in the secondary\n37 treatment train first. For example, for small volume aqueous waste with high concentrations of some\n38 anions and metals, the approach could be to first process the waste stream in the secondary treatment\n39 train. This approach would prevent premature fouling or scaling of the RO unit. The liquid portion (i.e.,\n40 untreated overheads from the 200 Area ETF evaporator and thin film dryer) would be sent to the primary\n41 treatment train.\n42 Figure C.5 and Figure C.6 provide example process flow diagrams for two different operating\n43 configurations.\n44 C.2.3 Primary Treatment Train\n45 The primary treatment train consists of the following processes:\n46 * Influent Receipt/Surge tank -inlet, surge capacity.\n47 * Filtration -for suspended solids removal.\nAddendum C.8\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * UV/OX -organic destruction.\n2 * pH adjustment -waste neutralization.\n3 * Hydrogen peroxide decomposition -removal of excess hydrogen peroxide.\n4 * Degasification -removal of carbon dioxide.\n5 * RO -removal of dissolved solids.\n6 * IX -removal of dissolved solids.\n7 * Verification -holding tanks during verification.\n8 Influent Receipt/Surge Tank. Depending on the configuration of the ETF, the surge tank is one inlet\n9 used to feed an aqueous waste into the 200 Area ETF for treatment. In Configuration 1 (Figure C.5), the\n10 surge tank is the first component downstream of the LERF. The surge tank provides a storage/surge\n11 volume for chemical pretreatment and controls feed flow rates from the LERF to the 200 Area ETF.\n12 However, in Configuration 2 (Figure C.6), aqueous waste from LERF is fed directly into the treatment\n13 units. In this configuration, the surge tank receives aqueous waste, which has been processed in the RO\n14 units, and provides the feed stream to the remaining downstream process units. In yet another\n15 configuration, some small volume aqueous waste could be received into the secondary treatment train\n16 first for processing. In this case, the aqueous waste would be received directly into the secondary waste\n17 receiving tanks. Finally, the surge tank also receives waste extracted from various systems within the\n18 primary and secondary treatment train while in operation.\n19 The surge tank is located outside the 200 Area ETF on the south side. In the surge tank (Fiyure C.7), the\n20 pH of an aqueous waste is adjusted using the metered addition of sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide, as\n21 necessary, to prepare the waste for treatment in downstream processes. In addition, hydrogen peroxide or\n22 biocides could be added to control biological growth in the surge tank. A pump recirculates the contents\n23 in the surge tank, mixing the chemical reagents with the waste to a uniform pH.\n24 Filtration. Two primary filter systems remove suspended particles in an aqueous waste: a rough filter\n25 removes the larger particulates, while a fine filter removes the smaller particulates. The location of these\n26 filters depends on the configuration of the primary treatment train. However, the filters normally are\n27 located upstream of the RO units.\n28 The solids accumulating on these filter elements are backwashed to the secondary waste receiving tanks\n29 with pulses of compressed air and water, forcing water back through the filter. The backwash operation is\n30 initiated either automatically by a rise in differential pressure across the filter or manually by an operator.\n31 The filters are cleaned chemically when the backwashing process does not facilitate acceptable filter\n32 performance.\n33 Auxiliary fine and rough filters (e.g., disposable filters) have been installed to provide additional filtration\n34 capabilities. Depending on the configuration of the ETF, the auxiliary filters are operated either in series\n35 with the primary filters to provide additional filtration or in parallel, instead of the primary fine and rough\n36 filters, to allow cleaning/maintenance of the primary fine and rough filters while the primary treatment\n37 train is in operation.\n38 Ultraviolet Light/Oxidation. Organic compounds contained in an aqueous waste stream are destroyed\n39 in the UV/OX system (Fiaure C.8). Hydrogen peroxide is mixed with the waste.\n40 The UV/OX system uses the photochemical reaction of UV light on hydrogen peroxide to form hydroxyl\n41 radicals and other reactive species that oxidize the organic compounds. The final products of the\n42 complete reaction are carbon dioxide, water, and inorganic ions.\n43 Organic destruction is accomplished in two UV/OX units operating in parallel. During the UV/OX\n44 process, the aqueous waste passes through reaction chambers where hydrogen peroxide is added. While\n45 in the UV/OX system, the temperature of an aqueous waste is monitored. Heat exchangers are used to\n46 reduce the temperature of the waste should the temperature of the waste approach the upper limits for the\n47 UV/OX or RO systems.\nAddendum C.9\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 pH Adjustment. The pH of a waste stream is monitored and controlled at different points throughout the\n2 treatment process. Within the primary treatment train, the pH of a waste can be adjusted with sulfuric\n3 acid or sodium hydroxide to optimize operation of downstream treatment processes or adjusted before\n4 final discharge. For example, the pH of an aqueous waste would be adjusted in the pH adjustment tank\n5 after the UV/OX process and before the RO process. In this example, pH is adjusted to cause certain\n6 chemical species such as ammonia to form ammonium sulfate, thereby increasing the rejection rate of the\n7 RO.\n8 Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposition. Typically, hydrogen peroxide added into the UV/OX system is not\n9 consumed completely by the system. Because hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizer, the residual\n10 hydrogen peroxide from the UV/OX system is removed to protect the downstream equipment. The\n11 hydrogen peroxide decomposer uses a catalyst to break down the hydrogen peroxide that is not consumed\n12 completely in the process of organic destruction. The aqueous waste is sent through a column that breaks\n13 down the hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The gas generated by the decomposition of the\n14 hydrogen peroxide is vented to the vessel off gas system.\n15 Degasification. The degasification column is used to purge dissolved carbon dioxide from the aqueous\n16 waste to reduce the carbonate loading to downstream dissolved solids removal processes within the\n17 200 Area ETF primary treatment train. The purged carbon dioxide is vented to the vessel off gas system.\n18 Reverse Osmosis. The RO system (Figure C.9) uses pressure to force clean water molecules through\n19 semi-permeable membranes while keeping the larger molecule contaminants, such as dissolved solids,\n20 and large molecular weight organic materials, in the membrane. The RO process uses a staged\n21 configuration to maximize water recovery. The process produces two separate streams, including a clean\n22 'permeate' and a concentrate (or retentate), which are concentrated as much as possible to minimize the\n23 amount of secondary waste produced.\n24 The RO process is divided into first and second stages. Aqueous waste is fed to the first RO stage from\n25 the RO feed tank. The secondary waste receiving tanks of the secondary treatment train receive the\n26 retentate removed from the first RO stage, while the second RO stage receives the permeate (i.e., 'treated'\n27 aqueous waste from the first RO stage). In the second RO stage, the retentate is sent to the first stage RO\n28 feed tank while the permeate is sent to the IX system or to the surge tank, depending on the configuration\n29 of the ETF.\n30 Two support systems facilitate this process. An anti-scale system injects scale inhibitors as needed into\n31 the feed waste to prevent scale from forming on the membrane surface. A clean-in-place system using\n32 cleaning agents, such as descalants and surfactants, cleans the membrane pores of surface and subsurface\n33 deposits that have fouled the membranes.\n34 Ion Exchange. Because the RO process removes most of the dissolved solids in an aqueous waste, the\n35 IX process (Figure C.10) acts as a polishing unit. The IX system consists of three columns containing\n36 beds of cation and/or anion resins. This system is designed to allow for regeneration of resins and\n37 maintenance of one column while the other two are in operation. Though the two columns generally are\n38 operated in series, the two columns also can be operated in parallel or individually.\n39 Typically, the two columns in operation are arranged in a primary/secondary (lead/lag) configuration, and\n40 the third (regenerated) column is maintained in standby.\n41 When dissolved solids breakthrough the first IX column and are detected by a conductivity sensor, this\n42 column is removed from service for regeneration, and the second column replaces the first column and\n43 the third column is placed into service. The column normally is regenerated using sulfuric acid and\n44 sodium hydroxide. The resulting regeneration waste is collected in the secondary waste receiving tanks.\n45 Spent resins are transferred into a disposal container should regeneration of the IX resins become\n46 inefficient Free water is removed from the container and returned to the surge tank. Dewatered resins are\n47 transferred to a final storage/disposal point.\nAddendum C.10\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Verification. The three verification tanks (Figure C. 11) are used to hold the treated effluent while a\n2 determination is made that the effluent meets discharge limits. The effluent can be returned to the\n3 primary treatment train for additional treatment, or to the LERF, should a treated effluent not meet\n4 Discharge Permit or Final Delisting requirements.\n5 The three verification tanks alternate between three operating modes: receiving treated effluent, holding\n6 treated effluent during laboratory analysis and verification, or discharging verified effluent. Treated\n7 effluent may also be returned to the 200 Area ETF to provide 'clean' service water for operational and\n8 maintenance functions, e.g., for boiler water and for backwashing the filters. This recycling keeps the\n9 quantity of fresh water used to a minimum.\n10 C.2.4 Secondary Treatment Train\n11 The secondary treatment system typically receives and processes the following by-products generated\n12 from the primary treatment train: concentrate from the first RO stage, filter backwash, regeneration waste\n13 from the ion exchange system, and spillage or overflow received into the process sumps. Depending on\n14 the operating configuration, however, some aqueous waste could be processed in the secondary treatment\n15 train before the primary treatment train (refer to Figure C.5 and Figure C.6 for example operating\n16 configurations).\n17 The secondary treatment train provides the following processes:\n18 * Secondary waste receiving -tank receiving and chemical addition.\n19 * Evaporation -concentrates secondary waste streams.\n20 * Concentrate staging -concentrate receipt, pH adjustment, and chemical addition.\n21 * Thin film drying -dewatering of secondary waste streams.\n22 * Container handling -packaging of dewatered secondary waste.\n23 Secondary Waste Receiving. Waste to be processed in the secondary treatment train is received into two\n24 secondary waste receiving tanks, where the pH can be adjusted with sulfuric acid or sodium hydroxide for\n25 optimum evaporator performance. Chemicals, such as reducing agents, may be added to waste in the\n26 secondary waste receiving tanks to reduce the toxicity or mobility of constituents in the powder.\n27 Evaporation. The 200 Area ETF evaporator is fed alternately by the two secondary waste receiving\n28 tanks. One tank serves as a waste receiver while the other tank is operated as the feed tank. The\n29 200 Area ETF evaporator vessel (also referred to as the vapor body) is the principal component of the\n30 evaporation process (Figure C.12).\n31 Feed from the secondary waste receiving tanks is pumped through a heater to the recirculation loop of the\n32 200 Area ETF evaporator. In this loop, concentrated waste is recirculated from the 200 Area ETF\n33 evaporator, to a heater, and back into the evaporator where vaporization occurs. As water leaves the\n34 evaporator system in the vapor phase, the concentration of the waste in the evaporator increases. When\n35 the concentration of the waste reaches the appropriate density, a portion of the concentrate is pumped to\n36 one of the concentrate tanks.\n37 The vapor that is released from the 200 Area ETF evaporator is routed to the entrainment separator, where\n38 water droplets and/or particulates are separated from the vapor. The 'cleaned' vapor is routed to the vapor\n39 compressor and converted to steam.\n40 The steam from the vapor compressor is sent to the heater (reboiler) and used to heat the recirculating\n41 concentrate in the 200 Area ETF evaporator. From the heater, the steam is condensed and fed to the\n42 distillate flash tank, where the saturated condensate received from the heater drops to atmospheric\n43 pressure and cools to the normal boiling point through partial flashing (rapid vaporization caused by a\n44 pressure reduction). The resulting distillate is routed to the surge tank. The non-condensable vapors,\n45 such as air, are vented through a vent gas cooler to the vessel off gas system.\nAddendum C. 11\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Concentrate Staging. The concentrate tanks make up the head end of the thin film drying process. From\n2 the 200 Area ETF evaporator, concentrate is pumped into two concentrate tanks, and pH adjusted\n3 chemicals, such as reducing agents, may be added to reduce the toxicity or mobility of constituents when\n4 converted to powder. Waste is transferred from the concentrate tanks to the thin film dryer for conversion\n5 to a powder. The concentrate tanks function alternately between concentrate receiver and feed tank for\n6 the thin film dryer. However, one tank may serve as both concentrate receiver and feed tank.\n7 Because low solubility solids (i.e., calcium and magnesium sulfate) tend to settle in the concentrate tanks,\n8 these solids must be removed to prevent fouling and to protect the thin film dryer, and to maintain\n9 concentrate tank capacity.\n10 Thin Film Drying. From the concentrate tanks, feed is pumped to the thin film dryer (Figure C.13) that\n11 is heated by steam. As the concentrated waste flows down the length of the dryer, the waste is dried. The\n12 dried film, or powder, is scraped off the dryer cylinder by blades attached to a rotating shaft. The powder\n13 is funneled through a cone-shaped powder hopper at the bottom of the dryer and into the Container\n14 Handling System.\n15 Overhead vapor released by the drying of the concentrate is condensed in the distillate condenser. Excess\n16 heat is removed from the distillate by a water-cooled heat exchanger. Part of the distillate is circulated\n17 back to the condenser spray nozzles. The remaining distillate is pumped to the surge tank. Any\n18 noncondensible vapors and particulates from the spray condenser are exhausted to the vessel off gas\n19 system.\n20 Container Handling. Before an empty container is moved into the Container Handling System\n21 (Figure C.14), the lid is removed and the container is placed on a conveyor. The containers are moved\n22 into the container filling area after passing through an air lock. The empty container is located under the\n23 thin film dryer, and raised into position. The container is sealed to the thin film dryer and a rotary valve\n24 begins the transfer of powder to the empty container. Air displaced from the container is vented to the\n25 distillate condenser attached to the 200 Area ETF evaporator that exhausts to the vessel off gas system.\n26 The container is filled to a predetermined level, then lowered from the thin film dryer and moved along a\n27 conveyor. The filled container is manually recapped, and moved along the conveyor to the airlock. At\n28 the airlock, the container is moved onto the conveyor by remote control. The airlock is opened, the smear\n29 sample (surface wipe) is taken, and the contamination level counted. A 'C' ring is installed to secure the\n30 container lid. If the container has contaminated material on the outside, the container is wiped down and\n31 retested. Filled containers that pass the smear test are labeled, placed on pallets, and moved by forklift to\n32 the filled container storage area. Section C.3 provides a more detailed discussion of container handling.\n33 C.2.5 Other Effluent Treatment Facility Systems\n34 The 200 Area ETF is provided with support systems that facilitate treatment in the primary and secondary\n35 treatment trains and that provide for worker safety and environmental protection. An overview of the\n36 following systems is provided:\n37 * Monitor and control system\n38 * Vessel off gas system\n39 * Sump collection system\n40 * Chemical injection feed system\n41 * Verification tank recycle system\n42 * Utilities\n43 C.2.5.1 Monitor and Control System\n44 The operation of the 200 Area ETF is monitored and controlled by a centralized computer system\n45 (i.e., monitor and control system or MCS).\nAddendum C.12\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI The MCS continuously monitors data from various field indicators, such as pH, flow, tank level,\n2 temperature, pressure, conductivity, alarm status, and valve switch positions. Data gathered by the MCS\n3 enable operations and engineering personnel to document and adjust the operation of the ETF.\n4 Emergency communications equipment and warning systems (e.g. fire alarms and evacuation alarms) are\n5 included in Addendum J, Contingency Plan. These emergency response notification alarms are\n6 monitored continuously at central Hanford Facility locations (e.g. Hanford Fire Station) and do not rely\n7 on staff being present in the ETF control room for notification and response.\n8 C.2.5.2 Vessel Off gas System\n9 Ventilation for various tanks and vessels is provided through the vessel off gas system. The system\n10 includes a moisture separator, duct heater, pre-filter, high-efficiency particulate air filters, carbon absorber\n11 (when required to reduce organic emissions), exhaust fans, and ductwork. Gasses ventilated from the\n12 tanks and vessels enter the exhaust system through the connected ductwork. The vessel off gas system\n13 draws vapors and gasses off the following tanks and treatment systems:\n14 * Surge tank\n15 * Vent gas cooler (off the ETF evaporator/distillate flash tank)\n16 * pH adjustment tank\n17 * Concentrate tanks\n18 * Degasification system\n19 * First and second RO stages\n20 * Dry powder hopper\n21 * Effluent pH adjustment tank\n22 * Drum capping station\n23 * Secondary waste receiving tanks\n24 * Distillate condenser (off the thin film dryer)\n25 * Sump tanks 1 and 2\n26 The vessel off gas system maintains a negative pressure with respect to the atmosphere, which produces a\n27 slight vacuum within tanks, vessels, and ancillary equipment for the containment of gas vapor. This\n28 system also provides for the collection, monitoring, and treatment of confined airborne in-vessel\n29 contaminants to preclude over-pressurization. The high-efficiency particulate air filters remove\n30 particulates and condensate from the air stream before these are discharged to the heating, ventilation, and\n31 air conditioning system.\n32 C.2.5.3 Sump Collection System\n33 Sump tanks I and 2 compose the sump collection system that provides containment of waste streams and\n34 liquid overflow associated with the 200 Area ETF processes. The process area floor is sloped to two\n35 separate trenches that each drain to a sump tank located under the floor of the 200 Area ETF\n36 (Figure C.15). One trench runs the length of the primary treatment train and drains to Sump Tank 2,\n37 located underneath the verification tank pump floor. The second trench collects spillage primarily from\n38 the secondary treatment train and flows to Sump Tank 1, located near the 200 Area ETF evaporator.\n39 Sump tanks I and 2 are located below floor level (Figure C. 15). An eductor in these tanks prevents\n40 sludge from accumulating.\n41 C.2.5.4 Chemical Injection Feed System\n42 At several points within the primary and secondary treatment trains, sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide\n43 (or dilute solutions of these reagents) are metered into specific process units to adjust the pH. For\n44 example, a dilute solution of 4 percent sulfuric acid and 4 percent sodium hydroxide could be added to\n45 the secondary waste receiving tanks to optimize the evaporation process.\nAddendum C.13\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI C.2.5.5 Verification Tank Recycle System\n2 To reduce the amount of water added to the process, verification tank water (i.e., verified effluent) is\n3 recycled throughout the 200 Area ETF process. Tanks and ancillary equipment that use verification tank\n4 water include:\n5 * 4 percent H2SO4 solution tank and ancillary equipment.\n6 * 4 percent NaOH solution tank and ancillary equipment.\n7 * Clean-in-place tank and ancillary equipment.\n8 * IX columns (during resin regeneration).\n9 * 200 Area ETF evaporator boiler and ancillary equipment.\n10 * Thin film dryer boiler and ancillary equipment\n11 * Seal water system.\n12 In addition, verification tank water is used extensively during maintenance activities. For example, it may\n13 be used to flush piping systems or to confirm the integrity of piping, a process tank or tank truck.\n14 C.2.5.6 Utilities\n15 The 200 Area ETF maintains the following utility supply systems required for the operation of the ETF:\n16 * Cooling water system -removes heat from process water via heat exchangers and a cooling\n17 tower.\n18 * Compressed air system -provides air to process equipment and instrumentation.\n19 * Seal water system -provides cool, clean, pressurized water to process equipment for pump seal\n20 cooling and pump seal lubrication, and provides protection against failure and fluid leakage.\n21 * Demineralized water system -removes solids from raw water system to produce high quality, low\n22 ion-content, water for steam boilers, and for the hydrogen peroxide feed system.\n23 * Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system -provides continuous heating, cooling, and air\n24 humidity control throughout the ETF.\n25 The following utilities support 200 Area ETF activities:\n26 * Electrical power\n27 * Sanitary water\n28 * Communication systems\n29 * Raw water\n30 C.3 Containers\n31 This section provides specific information on container storage and treatment operations at the 200 Area\n32 ETF, including descriptions of containers, labeling, and secondary containment structures.\n33 A list of dangerous and/or mixed waste managed in containers at the 200 Area ETF is presented in\n34 Addendum A. The types of dangerous and/or mixed waste managed in containers in the 200 Area ETF\n35 could include:\n36 * Secondary waste powder generated from the treatment process.\n37 * Aqueous waste received from other Hanford site sources awaiting treatment.\n38 * Miscellaneous waste generated by operations and maintenance activities.\n39 The secondary treatment train processes the waste by-products from the primary treatment train, which\n40 are concentrated and dried into a powder. Containers are filled with dry powder waste from the thin film\n41 dryer via a remotely controlled system. Containers of aqueous waste received from other Hanford site\n42 sources are stored at 200 Area ETF until their contents can be transferred to the process for treatment.\nAddendum C.14\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 The waste is usually transferred to the secondary waste receiving or concentration tanks. Miscellaneous\n2 waste generated from maintenance and operations activities are stored at the ETF. The waste could\n3 include process waste, such as used filter elements; spent RO membranes; damaged equipment, and\n4 decontamination and maintenance waste, such as contaminated rags, gloves, and other personal protective\n5 equipment. Containers of miscellaneous waste which have free liquids generally are packaged with\n6 absorbents.\n7 Several container collection areas could be located within the 200 Area ETF process and container\n8 handling areas. These collection areas are used only to accumulate waste in containers. Once a container\n9 is filled, the container is transferred to a container storage area (Figure C.3 and Figure C.4), to another\n10 TSD unit, or to a less-than-90-day storage pad. Containers stored in the additional storage area\n11 (Figure C.4) are elevated or otherwise protected from contact with accumulated liquids. The container\n12 storage area within 200 Area ETF is a 22.9 x 8.5-meter room located adjacent to the 200 Area ETF\n13 process areas. The containers within the container storage area are clearly labeled, and access to these\n14 containers is limited by barriers and by administrative controls. The 200 Area ETF floor provides\n15 secondary containment, and the 200 Area ETF roof and walls protects all containers from exposure to the\n16 elements.\n17 Waste also could be placed in containers for treatment as indicated in Addendum A. For example, sludge\n18 that accumulates in the bottoms of the process tanks is removed periodically and placed into containers.\n19 In this example, the waste is solidified by decanting the supemate from the container and the remainder of\n20 the waste is allowed to evaporate, or absorbents are added, as necessary, to address remaining liquids.\n21 Following treatment, this waste either is stored at the 200 Area ETF or transferred to another treatment,\n22 storage, and disposal (TSD) unit.\n23 C.3.1 Description of Containers\n24 The containers used to collect and store dry powder waste are 208-liter steel containers. Most of the\n25 aqueous waste received at 200 Area ETF, and maintenance and operation waste generated, are stored in\n26 208-liter steel or plastic containers; however, in a few cases, the size of the container could vary to\n27 accommodate the size of a particular waste. For example, some process waste, such as spent filters,\n28 might not fit into a 208-liter container. In the case of spent resin from the IX columns, the resin is\n29 dewatered, and could be packaged in a special disposal container. In these few cases, specially sized\n30 containers could be required. In all cases, however, only approved containers are used and are compatible\n31 with the associated waste. Typically, 208-liter containers are used for treatment.\n32 Current operating practices indicate the use of new 208-liter containers that have either a polyethylene\n33 liner or a protective coating. Any reused or reconditioned container is inspected for container integrity\n34 before use. Overpack containers are available for use with damaged containers. Overpack containers\n35 typically are unlined steel or polyethylene.\n36 Per Addendum A, a maximum of 147,630 liters of dangerous and/or mixed waste could be stored in\n37 containers in the 200 Area ETF.\n38 C.3.2 Container Management Practices\n39 Before use, each container is checked for signs of damage such as dents, distortion, corrosion, or\n40 scratched coating.\n41 For dry powder loading, empty containers on pallets are raised by a forklift and manually placed on the\n42 conveyor that transports the containers to the automatic filling station in the container handling room\n43 (Figure C.14). The container lids are removed and replaced manually following the filling sequence.\n44 After filling, containers exit the container handling room via the filled drum conveyor. Locking rings are\n45 installed, the container label is affixed, and the container is moved by dolly or forklift to the container\n46 storage area.\n47\nAddendum C.15\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Before receipt at 200 Area ETF, each container from other Hanford site sources is inspected for leaks,\n2 signs of damage, and a loose lid. The identification number on each container is checked to ensure the\n3 proper container is received. The containers are typically placed on pallets and moved by dolly or forklift\n4 to the container storage area. These containers are later moved to the process area and the contents\n5 transferred to the process for treatment.\n6 Containers used for storing maintenance and operations secondary waste are labeled before being placed\n7 in the container storage area or in a collection area. Lids are secured on these containers when not being\n8 filled. When the containers in a collection area are full, the containers are transferred by dolly or forklift\n9 to the container storage area or to an appropriate TSD unit. Containers used for treating waste also are\n10 labeled. The lids on these containers are removed as required to allow for treatment. During treatment,\n11 access to these containers is controlled through physical barriers and/or administrative controls.\n12 The filled containers in the container storage area are inventoried, checked for proper labeling, and placed\n13 on pallets or in a separate containment device as necessary. Each pallet is moved by forklift. Within the\n14 container storage area, palletized containers are stacked no more than three pallets high and in rows no\n15 more than two containers wide. Unobstructed aisles with a minimum of 76-centimeter aisle space\n16 separate rows.\n17 C.3.3 Container Labeling\n18 Labels are affixed on containers used to store dry powder when the containers leave the container\n19 handling room. Labels are affixed on other waste containers before use. Every container is labeled with\n20 the date that the container was filled. Appropriate major risk labels, such as \"corrosive\", \"toxic\", or\n21 \"F-listed\", also are added. Each container also has a label with an identification number for tracking\n22 purposes.\n23 C.3.4 Containment Requirements for Managing Containers\n24 Secondary containment is provided in the container management areas within the ETF. The secondary\n25 containment provided for tank systems also serves the container management areas. This section\n26 describes the design and operation of the secondary containment structure for these areas.\n27 C.3.4.1 Secondary Containment System Design\n28 For the container management areas, the reinforced concrete floor and a 15.2-centimeter rise (berm) along\n29 the walls of the container storage area of the 200 Area ETF provides secondary containment. The\n30 engineering assessment required for tanks (Mausshardt 1995) also describes the design and construction\n31 of the secondary containment provided for the 200 Area ETF container management areas. All systems\n32 were designed to national codes and standards (e.g., American Society for Testing Materials, American\n33 Concrete Institute standards).\n34 The floor is composed of cast-in-place, pre-formed concrete slabs, and has a minimum thickness of 15.2\n35 centimeters. All slab joints and floor and wall joints have water stops installed at the mid-depth of the\n36 slab. In addition, filler was applied to each joint. The floor and berms are coated with a chemically\n37 resistant; high-solids epoxy coating system consisting of primer and top coating. This coating material is\n38 compatible with the waste managed in containers and is an integral part of the secondary containment\n39 system for containers.\n40 The floor is sloped to drain any solution in the container storage area to floor drains along the west wall.\n41 Each floor drain consists of a grating over a 20.3-centimeter diameter drain port connected to a 4-inch\n42 polyvinyl chloride transfer pipe. The pipe passes under this wall and connects to a trench running along\n43 the east wall of the adjacent process area. This trench drains solution to sump tank 1.\n44 The container storage area is separated from the process area by a common wall and a door for access to\n45 the two areas (Figure C.3). These two areas also share a common floor and trenches that, with the\n46 15.2-centimeter rise of the containing walls, form the secondary containment system for the process area\n47 and the container storage area.\nAddendum C.16\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI C.3.4.2 Structural Integrity of Base\n2 Engineering calculations were performed showing the floor of the container storage area is capable of\n3 supporting the weight of containers. These calculations were reviewed and certified by a professional\n4 engineer (Mausshardt 1995). The concrete was inspected for damage during construction. Cracks were\n5 identified and repaired to the satisfaction of the professional engineer. Documentation of these\n6 certifications is included in the engineering assessment (Mausshardt 1995).\n7 C.3.4.3 Containment System Capacity\n8 The container storage area is primarily used to store dry powder, aqueous waste awaiting treatment, and\n9 maintenance and operation waste. Where appropriate, absorbents are added to fix any trace liquids\n10 present. Large volumes of liquid are not stored in the container storage area. However, liquids might be\n11 present in those containers that are in the treatment process. The maximum volume of waste that can be\n12 stored in containers in the container storage area is 147,630 liters.\n13 Because they are interconnected by floor drains, both the process area and the container storage area are\n14 considered in the containment system capacity. The volume available for secondary containment in the\n15 process area is approximately 68,000 liters, as discussed in the engineering assessment (Mausshardt\n16 1995). Using the dimensions of the container storage area (23.6 by 8.5 by 0.2 meters), and assuming that\n17 50 percent of the floor area is occupied by containers, the volume of the container storage area is\n18 15,300 liters. The Truck Bay loading areas (see Figure C.4) also provides 10,500 liters of containment as\n19 it is connected to the other two areas. The combined volume of the Truck Bay loading areas and process\n20 area, and container handling area available for secondary containment, is 93,800 liters. This volume is\n21 greater than 10 percent of the maximum total volume of containers allowed for storage in the ETF, as\n22 discussed previously.\n23 C.3.4.4 Control of Run-on\n24 The container management areas are located within the ETF, which serves to prevent run-on of\n25 precipitation.\n26 C.3.4.5 Removal of Liquids from Containment Systems\n27 The container storage area is equipped with drains that route solution to a trench in the process area,\n28 which drains to sump tank 1. The sump tanks are equipped with alarms that notify operating personnel\n29 that a leak is occurring. The sump tanks also are equipped with pumps to transfer waste to the surge tank\n30 or the secondary treatment train.\n31 C.3.4.6 Prevention of Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Wastes in Containers\n32 Individual waste types (i.e., ignitable, corrosive, and reactive) are stored in separate containers. A waste\n33 that could be incompatible with other wastes is separated and protected from the incompatible waste.\n34 Incompatible wastes are evaluated using the methodology documented in 40 CFR 264, Appendix V. For\n35 example, acidic and caustic wastes are stored in separate containers. Free liquids are absorbed in\n36 miscellaneous waste containers that hold incompatible waste. Additionally, ETF-specific packaging\n37 requirements for these types of waste provide extra containment with each individual container. For\n38 example, each item of acidic waste is individually bagged and sealed within a lined container.\n39 C.4 Tank Systems\n40 This section provides specific information on tank systems and process units. This section also includes a\n41 discussion on the types of waste to be managed in the tanks, tank design information, integrity\n42 assessments, and additional information on the 200 Area ETF tanks that treat and store dangerous and/or\n43 mixed waste. The 200 Area ETF dangerous waste tanks are identified in Section C.4.1.1, and the relative\n44 locations of the tanks and process units in the 200 Area ETF are presented in Figure C.3.\nAddendum C.17\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI C.4.1 Design Requirements\n2 The following sections provide an overview of the design specifications for the tanks within the ETF. A\n3 separate discussion on the design of the process units also is provided. In accordance with the new tank\n4 system requirements of WAC 173-303-640(3), the following tank components and specifications were\n5 assessed:\n6 * Dimensions, capacities, wall thicknesses, and pipe connections.\n7 * Materials of construction and linings and compatibility of materials with the waste being\n8 processed.\n9 * Materials of construction of foundations and structural supports.\n10 * Review of design codes and standards used in construction.\n11 * Review of structural design calculations, including seismic design basis.\n12 * Waste characteristics and the effects of waste on corrosion.\n13 This assessment was documented in the Final RCRA Information Needs Report (Mausshardt 1995; the\n14 engineering assessment performed for the 200 Area ETF tank systems by an independent professional\n15 engineer. A similar assessment of design requirements was performed for Load-in tanks 59A-TK-109\n16 and -117 and is documented in 200 Area Effluent BAT/AKART Implementation, ETF Truck Load-in\n17 Facility, Project W-291H Integrity Assessment Report (KEH 1994). An assessment was also performed\n18 when Load-in tank 59A-TK-1 was placed into service for receipt of dangerous and mixed wastes. The\n19 assessment is documented in 200 Area ETF Purgewater Unloading Facility Tank System Integrity\n20 Assessment (HNF 2009a).\n21 The specifications for the preparation, design, and construction of the tank systems at the 200 Area ETF\n22 are documented in the Design Construction Specification, Project C-018H, 242-A Evaporator/PUREX\n23 Plant Process Condensate Treatment Facility (WHC 1992a). The preparation, design, and construction\n24 of Load-in tanks 59A-TK-109 and -117 are provided in the construction specifications in Project W-291,\n25 200 Area Effluent BAT/AKART Implementation ETF Truck Load-in Facility (KEH 1994). The\n26 preparation, design and construction of Load-in 59A-TK-1 are documented in Purgewater Unloading\n27 Facility Project Documentation (HNF 2009b).\n28 Most of the tanks in the 200 Area ETF are constructed of stainless steel. According to the design of the\n29 ETF, it was determined stainless steel would provide adequate corrosion protection for these tanks.\n30 Exceptions include Load-in tank 59A-TK-1, which is constructed of fiberglass-reinforced plastic and the\n31 verification tanks, which are constructed of carbon steel with an epoxy coating. The 200 Area ETF\n32 evaporator/vapor body (and the internal surfaces of the thin film dryer) is constructed of a corrosion\n33 resistant alloy, known as alloy 625, to address the specific corrosion concerns in the secondary treatment\n34 train. Finally, the hydrogen peroxide decomposer vessels are constructed of carbon steel and coated with\n35 a vinyl ester lining.\n36 The shell thicknesses of the tanks identified in Table C.5 represent a nominal thickness of a new tank\n37 when placed into operation. The tank capacities identified in this table represent the maximum volumes.\n38 Nominal tank volumes discussed below represent the maximum volume in a tank unit during normal\n39 operations.\n40 C.4.1.1 Codes and Standards for Tank System Construction\n41 Specific standards for the manufacture of tanks and process systems installed in the 200 Area ETF are\n42 briefly discussed in the following sections. In addition to these codes and industrial standards, a seismic\n43 analysis for each tank and process system is required [WAC 173-303-806(4)(a)(xi)]. The seismic\n44 analysis was performed in accordance with UCRL-15910 Design and Evaluation Guidelines for\n45 Department of Energy Facilities Subjected to Natural Phenomena Hazards, Section 4 (UCRL 1987).\n46 The results of the seismic analyses are summarized in the engineering assessment of the 200 Area ETF\n47 tank systems (Mausshardt 1995).\nAddendum C.18\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Storage and Treatment Tanks. The following tanks store and/or treat dangerous waste at the ETF.\n2 Tank name Tank number\n3 Surge tank 2025E-60A-TK-1\n4 pH adjustment tank 2025E-60C-TK-1\n5 Effluent pH adjustment tank 2025E-60C-TK-2\n6 First RO feed tank 2025E-60F-TK-1\n7 Second RO feed tank 2025E-60F-TK-2\n8 Verification tanks (three) 2025E-60H-TK-IA/IB/IC\n9 Secondary waste receiving tanks (two) 2025E-601-TK-1A/1B\n10 Evaporator (vapor body) 2025E-601-EV-1\n11 Concentrate tanks (two) 2025E-60J-TK-1A/1B\n12 Sump tanks (two) 2025E-20B-TK-1/2\n13 Distillate flash tank 2025E-601-TK-2\n14 Load-in tanks 2025ED-59A-TK-1/109/117\n15 The relative location of these tanks is presented in Figure C.3. These tanks are maintained at or near\n16 atmospheric pressure. The codes and standards applicable to the design, construction, and testing of the\n17 above tanks and ancillary piping systems are as follows:\n18 ASME -B31.3 Chemical Plant and Petroleum Refinery Piping (ASME 1990)\n19 ASME Sect. VIII, Division I Pressure Vessels (ASME 1992a)\n20 AWS -DI.1 Structural Welding Code -Steel (AWS 1992)\n21 ANSI -B16.5 Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings (ANSI 1992)\n22 ASME Sect. IX Welding and Brazing Qualifications (ASME 1992b)\n23 API 620 Design and Construction of Large Welded Low Pressure Storage\n24 Tanks (API 1990)\n25 AWWA -DIO Welded Steel Tanks for Water Storage (AWWA 1989)\n26 AWWA -D103 Factory-Coated Bolted Steel Tanks for Water Storage\n27 (AWWA 1987)\n28 AWWA -D120 Thermosetting Fiberglass-Reinforced Plastic Tanks\n29 (AWWA 1984)\n30 ASTM-D3299 Filament Wound Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Thermoset Resin\n31 Corrosion Resistant Tanks.\n32 The application of these standards to the construction of 200 Area ETF tanks and independent verification\n33 of completed systems ensured that the tank and tank supports had sufficient structural strength and that\n34 seams and connections were adequate to ensure tank integrity. In addition, each tank met strict quality\n35 assurance requirements. Each tank constructed offsite was tested for integrity and leak tightness before\n36 shipment to the Hanford Facility. Following installation, the systems were inspected for damage to\n37 ensure against leakage and to verify proper operation. If a tank was damaged during shipment or\n38 installation, leak tightness testing was repeated onsite.\n39 C.4.1.2 Design Information for Tanks Located Outside of Effluent Treatment Facility\n40 The load-in tanks, surge tank, and verification tanks are located outside the ETF. These tanks are located\n41 within concrete structures that provide secondary containment.\nAddendum C.19\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Load-In Tanks and Ancillary Equipment. The load-in tanks 59A-TK-109 and -1 l7are heated and\n2 constructed of stainless steel, and have a nominal capacity of 31,000 liters. Load-in tank 59A-TK-1 is\n3 heated and constructed of fiberglass reinforced plastic and has a nominal capacity of 24,500 liters.\n4 Load-in tanks 59A-TK-109 and -117 are located outside of the metal building while Load-in tank\n5 59A-TK-1 is located inside the building. Ancillary equipment includes transfer pumps, filtration\n6 systems, a double encased, fiberglass transfer pipeline, level instruments for tanker trucks, and leak\n7 detection equipment. From the Load-In Station, aqueous waste can be routed to the surge tank or to the\n8 LERF through a double-encased line. The load-in tanks, sump, pumps, and truck pad are all provided\n9 with secondary containment.\n10 Surge Tank and Ancillary Equipment. The surge tank is constructed of stainless steel and has a\n11 nominal capacity of 421,000 liters. Ancillary equipment to the surge tank includes two underground\n12 double encased (i.e., pipe-within-a-pipe) transfer lines connecting to LERF and three pumps for\n13 transferring aqueous waste to the primary treatment train. The surge tank is located at the south end of\n14 the ETF. The surge tank is insulated and the contents heated to prevent freezing. Eductors in the tank\n15 provide mixing.\n16 Verification Tanks and Ancillary Equipment. The verification tanks are located north of the ETF.\n17 The verification tanks have a nominal capacity of 2,760,000 liters each. For support, the tanks have a\n18 center post with a webbing of beams that extend from the center post to the sides of the tank. The roof is\n19 constructed of epoxy covered carbon steel that is attached to the cross beams of the webbing. The tank\n20 floor also is constructed of epoxy covered carbon steel and is sloped. Eductors are installed in each tank\n21 to provide mixing.\n22 Ancillary equipment includes a return pump that provides circulation of treated effluent through the\n23 eductors. The return pump also recycles effluent back to the 200 Area ETF for retreatment and can\n24 provide service water for 200 Area ETF functions. Two transfer pumps are used to discharge treated\n25 effluent to SALDS or back to the LERF.\n26 C.4.1.3 Design Information for Tanks Located Inside the Effluent Treatment Facility\n27 Building\n28 Most of the 200 Area ETF tanks and ancillary equipment that store or treat dangerous and/or mixed waste\n29 are located within the ETF. The structure serves as secondary containment for the tank systems.\n30 pH Adjustment Tank and Ancillary Equipment. The pH adjustment tank has a nominal capacity of\n31 16,000 liters. Ancillary equipment for this tank includes overflow lines to a sump tank and pumps to\n32 transfer waste to other units in the main treatment train.\n33 Effluent pH Adjustment Tank and Ancillary Equipment. The effluent pH adjustment tank has a\n34 nominal capacity of 13,700 liters. Ancillary equipment includes overflow lines to a sump tank and pumps\n35 to transfer waste to the verification tanks.\n36 First and Second Reverse Osmosis Feed Tanks and Ancillary Equipment. The first RO feed tank is a\n37 vertical, stainless steel tank with a round bottom and has a nominal capacity of 19,700 liters. Conversely,\n38 the second RO feed tank is a rectangular vessel with the bottom of the tank sloping sharply to a single\n39 outlet in the bottom center. The second RO feed tank has a nominal capacity of 7,800 liters. Each RO\n40 tank has a pump to transfer waste to the RO arrays. Overflow lines are routed to a sump tank.\n41 Secondary Waste Receiving Tanks and Ancillary Equipment. Two nominal 69,000-liter secondary\n42 waste receiving tanks collect waste from the units in the main treatment train, such as concentrate solution\n43 (retentate) from the RO units and regeneration solution from the IX columns.\n44 These are vertical, cylindrical tanks with a semi-elliptical bottom and a flat top. Ancillary equipment\n45 includes overflow lines to a sump tank and pumps to transfer aqueous waste to the 200 Area ETF\n46 evaporator.\nAddendum C.20\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Effluent Treatment Facility Evaporator and Ancillary Equipment. The 200 Area ETF evaporator,\n2 the principal component of the evaporation process, is a cylindrical pressure vessel with a conical bottom.\n3 Aqueous waste is fed into the lower portion of the vessel. The top of the vessel is domed and the vapor\n4 outlet is configured to prevent carryover of liquid during the foaming or bumping (violent boiling) at the\n5 liquid surface. The 200 Area ETF evaporator has a nominal operating capacity of approximately\n6 18,500 liters.\n7 The 200 Area ETF evaporator includes the following ancillary equipment:\n8 * Preheater\n9 * Recirculation pump\n10 * Waste heater with steam level control tank\n11 * Concentrate transfer pump\n12 * Entrainment separator\n13 * Vapor compressor with silencers\n14 * Silencer drain pump\n15 Distillate Flash Tank and Ancillary Equipment. The distillate flash tank is a horizontal tank that has a\n16 nominal operating capacity of 780 liters. Ancillary equipment includes a pump to transfer the distillate to\n17 the surge tank for reprocessing.\n18 Concentrate Tanks and Ancillary Equipment. Each of the two concentrate tanks has an approximate\n19 nominal capacity of 22,700 liters. Ancillary equipment includes overflow lines to a sump tank and pumps\n20 for recirculation and transfer.\n21 Sump Tanks. Sump tanks I and 2 are located below floor level. Both sump tanks are double-walled,\n22 rectangular tanks, placed inside concrete vaults. Both tanks have a working volume of 4,000 liters each.\n23 The sump tanks are located in pits below grade to allow gravity drain of solutions to the tanks. Each\n24 sump tank has two vertical pumps for transfer of waste to the secondary waste receiving tanks or to the\n25 surge tank for reprocessing.\n26 C.4.1.4 Design Information for Effluent Treatment Facility Process Units\n27 As with the 200 Area ETF tanks, process units that treat and/or store dangerous and/or mixed waste are\n28 maintained at or near atmospheric pressure. These units were constructed to meet a series of design\n29 standards, as discussed in the following sections. Table C.6 presents the materials of construction and the\n30 ancillary equipment associated with these process units. All piping systems are designed to withstand the\n31 effects of internal pressure, weight, thermal expansion and contraction, and any pulsating flow. The\n32 design and integrity of these units are presented in the engineering assessment (Mausshardt 1995).\n33 Filters. The load-in fine and rough filter vessels (including the influent and auxiliary filters) are designed\n34 to comply with the ASME Section VIII, Division I, Pressure Vessels (ASME 1992a). The application of\n35 these standards to the construction of the 200 Area ETF filter system and independent inspection ensure\n36 that the filter and filter supports have sufficient structural strength and that the seams and connections are\n37 adequate to ensure the integrity of the filter vessels.\n38 Ultraviolet Oxidation System. The UV/OX reaction chamber is designed to comply with manufacturers\n39 standards.\n40 Degasification System. The codes and standards applicable to the design, fabrication, and testing of the\n41 degasification column are identified as follows:\n42 * ASME -B31.3, Chemical Plant and Petroleum Refinery Piping (ASME 1990)\n43 * AWS -D1.1, Structural Welding Code -Steel (AWS 1992)\n44 * ANSI -B16.5, Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings (ANSI 1992)\nAddendum C.21\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Reverse Osmosis System. The pressure vessels in the RO unit are designed to comply with ASME\n2 Section VIII, Division I, Pressure Vessels (ASME 1992a), and applicable codes and standards.\n3 Ion Exchange (Polishers). The IX columns are designed in accordance with ASME Section VIII,\n4 Division I, Pressure Vessels (ASME 1992a), and applicable codes and standards. Polisher piping is\n5 fabricated of type 304 stainless steel or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and meets the requirements of\n6 ASME B31.3, Chemical Plant and Petroleum Refinery Piping (ASME 1990).\n7 Effluent Treatment Facility Evaporator. The 200 Area ETF evaporator is designed to meet the\n8 requirements of ASME Section VIII, Division 1, Pressure Vessels (ASME 1992a), and applicable codes\n9 and standards. The 200 Area ETF evaporator piping meets the requirements of ASME B31.3, Chemical\n10 Plant and Petroleum Refinery Piping (ASME 1990).\n11 Thin Film Dryer System. The thin film dryer is designed to meet the requirements of ASME\n12 Section VIII, Division I, Pressure Vessels (ASME 1992a), and applicable codes and standards. The\n13 piping meets the requirements of ASME -B31.3, Chemical Plant and Petroleum Refinery Piping\n14 (ASME 1990).\n15 C.4.1.5 Integrity Assessments\n16 The integrity assessment for 200 Area ETF (Mausshardt 1995) attests to the adequacy of design and\n17 integrity of the tanks and ancillary equipment to ensure that the tanks and ancillary equipment will not\n18 collapse, rupture, or fail over the intended life considering intended uses. For the load-in tanks, a similar\n19 integrity assessment was performed (KEH 1995 and HNF 2009a). Specifically, the assessment\n20 documents the following considerations:\n21 * Adequacy of the standards used during design and construction of the facility.\n22 * Characteristics of the solution in each tank.\n23 * Adequacy of the materials of construction to provide corrosion protection from the solution in\n24 each tank.\n25 * Results of the leak tests and visual inspections.\n26 The results of these assessments demonstrate that tanks and ancillary equipment have sufficient structural\n27 integrity and are acceptable for storing and treating dangerous and/or mixed waste. The assessments also\n28 state that the tanks and building were designed and constructed to withstand a design-basis earthquake.\n29 Independent, qualified registered professional engineers certified these tank assessments.\n30 The scope of the 200 Area ETF tank integrity assessment was based on characterization data from process\n31 condensate. To assess the effect that other aqueous waste might have on the integrity of the 200 Area\n32 ETF tanks, the chemistry of an aqueous waste will be evaluated for its potential to corrode a tank\n33 (e.g., chloride concentrations will be evaluated). The tank integrity assessment for the load-in tanks was\n34 based on characterization data from several aqueous waste streams. The chemistry of an aqueous waste\n35 stream not considered in the load-in tank integrity assessment also will be evaluated for the potential to\n36 corrode a load-in tank.\n37 Consistent with the recommendations of the integrity assessment, a corrosion inspection program was\n38 developed. Periodic integrity assessments are scheduled for those tanks predicted to have the highest\n39 potential for corrosion. These inspections are scheduled annually or longer, based on age of the tank\n40 system, materials of construction, characteristics of the waste, operating experience, and\n41 recommendations of the initial integrity assessment. These 'indicator tanks' include the concentrate\n42 tanks, secondary waste receiving tanks, and verification tanks. One of each of these tanks will be\n43 inspected yearly to determine if corrosion or coating failure has occurred. Should significant corrosion or\n44 coating failure be found, an additional tank of the same type would be inspected during the same year.\n45\nAddendum C.22\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI In the case of the verification tanks, if corrosion or coating failure is found in the second tank, the third\n2 tank also will be inspected. If significant corrosion were observed in all three sets of tanks,'the balance of\n3 the 200 Area ETF tanks would be considered for inspection. For tanks predicted to have lower potential\n4 for corrosion, inspections also are performed nonroutinely as part of the corrective maintenance program.\n5 C.4.2 Additional Requirements for New Tanks\n6 Procedures for proper installation of tanks, tank supports, piping, concrete, etc., are included in\n7 Construction Specification, Project C-018H, 242-A Evaporator/PUREX Plant Process Condensate\n8 Treatment Facility (WHC 1992a). For the load-in tanks, procedures are included in the construction\n9 specifications in Project W-291, 200 Area Effluent BAT/AKART Implementation ETF Truck Load-in\n10 Facility (KEH 1994) and Purgewater Unloading Facility Project Documentation (HNF 2009b).\n11 Following installation, an independent, qualified, registered professional engineer inspected the tanks and\n12 secondary containment. Deficiencies identified included damage to the surge tank, damage to the\n13 verification tank liners, and 200 Area ETF secondary containment concrete surface cracking. All\n14 deficiencies were repaired to the satisfaction of the engineer. The tanks and ancillary equipment were\n15 leak tested as part of acceptance of the system from the construction contractor. Information on the\n16 inspections and leak tests are included in the engineering assessment (Mausshardt 1995). No deficiencies\n17 were identified during installation of the load-in tanks and ancillary equipment.\n18 C.4.3 Secondary Containment and Release Detection for Tank Systems\n19 This section describes the design and operation of secondary containment and leak detection systems at\n20 the ETF.\n21 C.4.3.1 Secondary Containment Requirements for All Tank Systems\n22 The specifications for the preparation, design, and construction of the secondary containment systems at\n23 the 200 Area ETF are documented (WHC 1992a). The preparation, design, and construction of the\n24 secondary containment for the load-in tanks are provided in the construction specifications (KEH 1994\n25 and HNF 2009b). All systems were designed to national codes and standards. Constructing the 200 Area\n26 ETF per these specifications ensured that foundations are capable of supporting tank and secondary\n27 containment systems and that uneven settling and failures from pressure gradients should not occur.\n28 C.4.3.1.1 Common Elements\n29 The following text describes elements of secondary containment that are common to all 200 Area ETF\n30 tank systems. Details on the secondary containment for specific tanks, including leak detection systems\n31 and liquids removal, are provided in Section C.4.3.1,2.\n32 Foundation and Construction. For the tanks within the ETF, except for the sump tanks, secondary\n33 containment is provided by a coated concrete floor and a 15.2-centimeter rise (berm) along the containing\n34 walls. The double-wall construction of the sump tanks provides secondary containment. Additionally,\n35 trenches are provided in the floor that also provides containment and drainage of any liquid to a sump pit.\n36 For tanks outside the ETF, secondary containment also is provided with coated concrete floors in a\n37 containment pit (load-in tanks) or surrounded by concrete dikes (the surge and verification tanks).\n38 The transfer piping that carries aqueous waste into the 200 Area ETF is pipe-within-a-pipe construction,\n39 and is buried approximately 1.2 meters below ground surface. The pipes between the verification tanks\n40 and the verification tank pumps within the 200 Area ETF are located in a concrete pipe trench.\n41 For this discussion, there are five discrete secondary containment systems associated with the following\n42 tanks and ancillary equipment that treat or store dangerous waste:\n43 * Load-in tanks\n44 * Surge tank\n45 * Process area (including sump tanks)\n46 * Verification tanks\nAddendum C.23\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n* Transfer piping and pipe trenches\n2 All of the secondary containment systems are designed with reinforcing steel and base and berm thickness\n3 to minimize failure caused by pressure gradients, physical contact with the waste, and climatic conditions.\n4 Classical theories of structural analysis, soil mechanics, and concrete and structural steel design were used\n5 in the design calculations for the foundations and structures. These calculations are maintained at the\n6 ETF. In each of the analyses, the major design criteria from the following documents were included:\nV-CO18HCI-001 Design Construction Specification, Project C-018H, 242A Evaporator/PUREX\nPlant Process Condensate Treatment Facility (WHC 1992a)\nDOE Order General Design Criteria\n6430.1A\nSDC-4.1 Standard Architectural-Civil Design Criteria, Design Loads for Facilities\n(DOE-RL 1988)\nUCRL-15910 Design and Evaluation Guidelines for Department of Energy Facilities\nSubjected to Natural Phenomena Hazards (UCRL 1987)\nUBC-91 Uniform Building Code, 1991 Edition (ICBO 1991)\nUBC-97 Uniform Building Code, 1997 Edition (ICC 1997, for Load-in tank 59A-TK-1)\n7 The design and structural analysis calculations substantiate the structural designs in the referenced\n8 drawings. The conclusions drawn from these calculations indicate that the designs are sound and that the\n9 specified structural design criteria were met. This conclusion is verified in the independent design review\n10 that was part of the engineering assessment (Mausshardt 1995, KEH 1994, and HNF 2009a).\n11 Containment Materials. The concrete floor consists of cast-in-place and preformed concrete slabs. All\n12 slab joints and floor and wall joints have water stops installed at the mid-depth of the slab. In addition,\n13 filler was applied to each joint.\n14 Except for the sump tank vaults, all of the concrete surfaces in the secondary containment system,\n15 including berms, trenches, and pits, are coated with a chemical-resistant, high-solids, epoxy coating that\n16 consists of a primer and a top coating. This coating material is compatible with the waste being treated,\n17 and with the sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, and hydrogen peroxide additives to the process. The\n18 coating protects the concrete from contact with any chemical materials that might be harmful to concrete\n19 and prevents the concrete from being in contact with waste material. Table C.8 summarizes the specific\n20 types of primer and top coats specified for the concrete and masonry surfaces in the ETF. The epoxy\n21 coating is considered integral to the secondary containment system for the tanks and ancillary equipment.\n22 The concrete containment systems are maintained such that any cracks, gaps, holes, and other\n23 imperfections are repaired in a timely manner. Thus, the concrete containment systems do not allow\n24 spilled liquid to reach soil or groundwater. There are a number of personnel doorways and vehicle access\n25 points into the 200 Area ETF process areas. Releases of any spilled or leaked material to the environment\n26 from these access points are prevented by 15.2-centimeter concrete curbs, sloped areas of the floor\n27 (e.g., truck ramp), or trenches.\n28 Containment Capacity and Maintenance. Each of these containment areas is designed to contain more\n29 than 100 percent of the volume of the largest tank in each respective system. Secondary containment\n30 systems for the surge tank, and the verification tanks, which are outside the ETF, also are large enough to\n31 include the additional volume from a 25-year, 24-hour storm event; i.e., 5.3 centimeters of precipitation.\n32 Sprinkler System. The sprinkler system within the 200 Area ETF supplies firewater protection to the\n33 process area and the container storage area. This system is connected to a site wide water supply system\n34 and has the capacity to supply sufficient water to suppress a fire at the ETF. However, in the event of\n35 failure, the sprinkler system can be hooked up to another water source (e.g., tanker truck).\nAddendum C.24\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 C.4.3.1.2 Specific Containment Systems\n2 The following discussion presents a description of the individual containment systems associated with\n3 specific tank systems.\n4 Load-In Tank Secondary Containment. The load-in tanks 59A-TK-109 and -117 are mounted on a\n5 46-centimeter-thick reinforced concrete slab (Drawing H-2-817970). Secondary containment is provided\n6 by a pit with 30.5-centimeter-thick walls and a floor constructed of reinforced concrete. The load-in tank\n7 pit is sloped to drain solution to a sump. The depth of the pit varies with the slope of the floor, with an\n8 average thickness of about 1.1 meters. The volume of the secondary containment is about 73,000 liters,\n9 which is capable of containing the volume of at least one load-in tank (i.e., 34,200 liters). Leaks are\n10 detected by a leak detector that alarms locally, in the 200 Area ETF control room, and by visual\n11 inspection of the secondary containment. Alarms are monitored continuously in the ETF control room\n12 during Load-in Station transfers and at least daily when there are no Load-in Station transfers occurring.\n13 Adjacent to the pit is a 25.4-centimeter-thick reinforced concrete pad that serves as secondary\n14 containment for the load-in tanker trucks, containers, transfer pumps, and filter system that serve as the\n15 first tanker truck unloading bay. The pad is inside the metal Load-in building and is 15.2 centimeters\n16 below grade with north and south walls gently sloped to allow truck access. The pad has a 3-inch drain\n17 pipe to route waste solution to the adjacent load-in tank pit. The pad does not have protective coating\n18 because it would experience excessive wear from the vehicle traffic.\n19 Load-in tank 59A-TK-1 is located on a 25.4-centimeter-thick reinforced concrete slab\n20 (Drawing H-2-817970) inside the metal Load-in building. The tank has a flat bottom which sits on a\n21 concrete slab in the secondary containment. Secondary containment for the tank, filter system, and truck\n22 unloading piping is provided by an epoxy coated catch basin with a capacity of about 3,400 liters. The\n23 catch basin is sloped to route solution from the catch basin through a 15.2-centimeter-wide by 14.3-\n24 centimeter-deep trench to the adjacent truck unloading pad. This pad drains to the Load-in tank pit\n25 discussed above. The volume of the combined secondary containment of these two systems is greater\n26 than 76,400 liters, which is capable of holding the volume of tank 59A-TK-1 (i.e., 26,000 liters).\n27 Adjacent to tank 59A-TK-1 catch basin is a 25.4-centimeter-thick reinforced concrete pad that serves as\n28 the second tanker truck unloading bay. The pad is inside the metal Load-in building and has a 2.4-meter\n29 by 4.0-meter shallow, sloping pit to catch leaks during tanker truck unloading. The pit has a maximum\n30 depth of 6.0 centimeters and a 15.2-centimeter-wide by 6.0-centimeter-deep trench to route leaks to the\n31 adjacent tank 59A-TK-1 catch basin. The pad does not have protective coating because it would\n32 experience excessive wear from the vehicle traffic.\n33 Surge Tank Secondary Containment. The surge tank is mounted on a reinforced concrete ringwall.\n34 Inside the ringwall, the flat-bottomed tank is supported by a bed of compacted sand and gravel with a\n35 high-density polyethylene liner bonded to the ringwall. The liner prevents galvanic corrosion between the\n36 soil and the tank. The secondary containment is reinforced concrete with a 15.2-centimeter thick floor\n37 and a 20.3-centimeter thick dike. The secondary containment area shares part of the southern wall of the\n38 main process area. The dike extends up 2.9 meters to provide a containment volume of 856,000 liters for\n39 the 462,000-liter surge tank.\n40 The floor of the secondary containment slopes to a sump in the northwest corner of the containment area.\n41 Leaks into the secondary containment are detected by level instrumentation in the sump which alarms in\n42 the ETF control room and/or by routine visual inspections. Sump alarms are monitored continuously in\n43 the ETF control room during ETF processing operations and at least daily when ETF is not processing\n44 waste. A sump pump is used to transfer solution in the secondary containment to a sump tank.\n45 Process Area Secondary Containment. The process area contains the tanks and ancillary equipment of\n46 the primary and secondary treatment trains, and has ajointed, reinforced concrete slab floor. The\n47 concrete floor of the process area provides the secondary containment. This floor is a minimum of\n48 15.2 centimeters thick.\nAddendum C.25\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI With doorsills 15.2 centimeter high, the process area has a containment volume of approximately 93,800\n2 liters. The largest tanks in the process area are the secondary waste receiving tanks, which each have a\n3 maximum capacity of 73,800 liters.\n4 The floor of the process area is sloped to drain liquids to two trenches that drain to a sump. Each trench is\n5 approximately 38.1 centimeters wide with a sloped trough varying from 39.4 to 76.2 centimeters deep.\n6 Leaks into the secondary containment are detected by routine visual inspections of the floor area near the\n7 tanks, ancillary equipment, and in the trenches.\n8 A small dam was placed in the trench that comes from the thin film dryer room to contain minor liquid\n9 spills originating in the dryer room to minimize the spread of contamination into the process area. The\n10 dryer room is inspected for leaks in accordance with the inspection schedule in Addendum I. Operators\n11 clean up these minor spills by removing the liquid waste and decontaminating the spill area.\n12 A small dam was also placed in the trench adjacent to the chemical feed skid when the chemical berm\n13 area was expanded to accommodate acid and caustic pumps, which were moved indoors from the top of\n14 the surge tank to resolve a safety concern. This dam was designed to contain minor spills originating in\n15 the chemical berm area and prevent them from entering the process sump.\n16 The northwest corner of the process area consists of a pump pit containing the pumps and piping for\n17 transferring treated effluent from the verification tanks to SALDS. The pit is built 1.37 meters below the\n18 process area floor level and is sloped to drain to a trench built along its north wall that routes liquid to\n19 sump tank 1. Leaks into the secondary containment of the pump pit are detected by routine visual\n20 inspections.\n21 Sump Tanks. The sump tanks support the secondary containment system, and collect waste from several\n22 sources, including:\n23 * Process area drain trenches.\n24 * Tank overflows and drains.\n25 * Container washing water.\n26 * Resin dewatering solution.\n27 * Steam boiler blow down.\n28 * Sampler system drains.\n29 These double-contained tanks are located within unlined, concrete vaults. The sump tank levels are\n30 monitored by remote level indicators or through visual inspections from the sump covers. These\n31 indicators are connected to high- and low-level alarms that are monitored in the ETF control room during\n32 ETF processing operations and at least daily when ETF is not processing liquid waste. When a high-\n33 level alarm is activated, a pump is activated and the sump tank contents usually are routed to the\n34 secondary treatment train for processing. The contents also could be routed to the surge tank for\n35 treatment in the primary treatment train. In the event of an abnormally high inflow rate, a second sump\n36 pump is initiated automatically.\n37 Verification Tank Secondary Containment. The three verification tanks are each mounted on\n38 ringwalls with high-density polyethylene liners similar to the surge tank. The secondary containment for\n39 the three tanks is reinforced concrete with a 15.2-centimeter thick floor and a 20.3-centimeter thick dike.\n40 The dike extends up 2.6 meters to provide a containment of approximately 3,390,000 liters exceeding the\n41 capacity of a single verification tank (See Table C.5).\n42 The floor of the secondary containment slopes to a sump along the southern wall of the dike. Leaks into\n43 the secondary containment are detected by level instrumentation in the sump and/or by routine visual\n44 inspections. Sump alarms are monitored continuously in the ETF control room during ETF processing\n45 operations and at least daily when ETF is not processing waste. A sump pump is used to transfer solution\n46 in the secondary containment to a sump tank.\nAddendum C.26\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI C.4.3.2 Additional Requirements for Specific Types of Systems\n2 This section addresses additional requirements in WAC 173-303-640 for double-walled tanks like the\n3 sump tanks and secondary containment for ancillary equipment and piping associated with the tank\n4 systems.\n5 C.4.3.2.1 Double-Walled Tanks\n6 The sump tanks are the only tanks in the 200 Area ETF classified as 'double-walled' tanks. These tanks\n7 are located in unlined concrete vaults and support the secondary containment system for the process area.\n8 The sump tanks are equipped with a leak detector between the walls of the tanks that provide continuous\n9 monitoring for leaks. The leak detector alarms are monitored in the ETF control room. These sump tank\n10 alarms are monitored continuously during ETF processing operations and at least daily when ETF is not\n11 processing waste. The inner tanks are contained completely within the outer shells. The tanks are\n12 contained completely within the concrete structure of the 200 Area ETF so corrosion protection from\n13 external galvanic corrosion is not necessary.\n14 C.4.3.2.2 Ancillary Equipment\n15 The secondary containment provided for the tanks and process systems also serves as secondary\n16 containment for the ancillary equipment associated with these systems.\n17 Ancillary Equipment. Section C.4.3.1.2 describes the secondary containment systems that also serve\n18 most of the ancillary equipment within the 200 Area ETF. Between the 200 Area ETF and the\n19 verification tanks, a pipeline trench provides secondary containment for four pipelines connecting the\n20 transfer pumps (i.e., discharge and return pumps) in the 200 Area ETF with the verification tanks\n21 (Figure C.2). This concrete trench crosses under the road and extends from the verification tank pumps to\n22 the verification tanks. Treated effluent flows through these pipelines from the verification tank pumps to\n23 the verification tanks. The return pump is used to return effluent to the 200 Area ETF for use as service\n24 water or for reprocessing.\n25 For all of the ancillary equipment housed within the ETF, the concrete floor, trenches, and berms form the\n26 secondary containment system. For the ancillary equipment of the surge tank and the verification tanks,\n27 secondary containment is provided by the concrete floors and dikes associated with these tanks. The\n28 concrete floor and pit provide secondary containment for the ancillary equipment of the load-in tanks.\n29 Transfer Piping and Pipe Trenches. The two buried transfer lines between LERF and the surge tank\n30 have secondary containment in a pipe-within-a-pipe arrangement. The 4-inch transfer line has an 8-inch\n31 outer pipe, while the 3-inch transfer, line has a 6-inch outer pipe. The pipes are fiberglass and are sloped\n32 towards the surge tank. The outer piping ends with a drain valve in the surge tank secondary\n33 containment.\n34 These pipelines are equipped with leak detection located in the annulus between the inner and outer pipes;\n35 the leak detection equipment can continuously 'inspect' the pipelines during aqueous waste transfers. The\n36 alarms on the leak detection system are monitored in the ETF control room. The control room alarms are\n37 monitored continuously during aqueous waste transfers between LERF and the ETF surge tank and at\n38 least daily when no transfers are occurring. A low-volume air purge of the annulus is provided to prevent\n39 condensation buildup and minimize false alarms by the leak detection system. In the event that these leak\n40 detectors are not in service, the pipelines are inspected during transfers by opening a drain valve to check\n41 for solution in the annular space between the inner and outer pipe.\n42 The 3-inch transfer line between the load-in tanks and the surge tank has a 6-inch outer pipe in a pipe-\n43 within-a-pipe arrangement. The piping is made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic and slopes towards the\n44 load-in tank secondary containment pit. The drain valve and leak detection system for the load-in tank\n45 pipelines are operated similarly to the leak detection system for the LERF to 200 Area ETF pipelines.\n46 As previously indicated, a reinforced concrete pipe trench provides secondary containment for piping\n47 under the roadway between the 200 Area ETF and the verification tanks.\nAddendum C.27\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Three 15.2 centimeter thick reinforced concrete partitions divide the trench into four portions and support\n2 metal gratings over the trench. Each portion of the trench is 1.2 meters wide, 0.76 meter deep, and slopes\n3 to route any solution present to 4-inch drain lines through the north wall of the ETF building. These drain\n4 lines route solution to sump tank 2 in ETF. The floor of the pipe trench is 30.5 centimeters thick and the\n5 sides are 15.2 centimeters thick. The concrete trenches are coated with water sealant and covered with\n6 metal gratings at ground level to allow vehicle traffic on the roadway.\n7 C.4.4 Tank Management Practices\n8 When an aqueous waste stream is identified for treatment or storage at 200 Area ETF, the generating unit\n9 is required to characterize the waste. Based on characterization data, the waste stream is evaluated to\n10 determine if the stream is acceptable for treatment or storage. Specific tank management practices are\n11 discussed in the following sections.\n12 C.4.4.1.1 Rupture, Leakage, Corrosion Prevention\n13 Most aqueous waste streams can be managed such that corrosion would not be a concern. For example,\n14 an aqueous waste stream with high concentrations of chloride might cause corrosion problems when\n15 concentrated in the secondary treatment train. One approach is to adjust the corrosion control measures in\n16 the secondary treatment train. An alternative might be to blend this aqueous waste in a LERF basin with\n17 another aqueous waste that has sufficient dissolved solids, such that the concentration of the chlorides in\n18 the secondary treatment train would not pose a corrosion concern.\n19 Additionally, the materials of construction used in the tanks systems (Table C.5) make it unlikely that an\n20 aqueous waste would corrode a tank. For more information on corrosion prevention, refer to\n21 Addendum B, Waste Analysis Plan.\n22 If operating experience suggests that most aqueous waste streams can be managed such that corrosion\n23 would not be a concern, operating practices and integrity assessment schedules and requirements will be\n24 reviewed and modified as appropriate.\n25 When a leak in a tank system is discovered, the leak is immediately contained or stopped by isolating the\n26 leaking component. Following containment, the requirements of WAC 173-303-640(7), incorporated by\n27 reference, are followed. These requirements include repair or closure of the tank/tank system component,\n28 and certification of any major repairs.\n29 C.4.4.2 Overfilling Prevention\n30 Operating practices and administrative controls used at the 200 Area ETF to prevent overfilling a tank are\n31 discussed in the following paragraphs. The 200 Area ETF process is controlled by the MCS. The MCS\n32 monitors liquid levels in the 200 Area ETF tanks and has alarms that annunciate on high-liquid level to\n33 notify operators that actions must be taken to prevent overfilling of these vessels. As an additional\n34 precaution to prevent spills, many tanks are equipped with overflow lines that route solutions to sump\n35 tanks I and 2. These tanks include the pH adjustment tank; RO feed tanks, effluent pH adjustment tank,\n36 secondary waste receiving tanks, and concentrate tanks.\n37 The following section discusses feed systems, safety cutoff devices, bypass systems, and pressure\n38 controls for specific tanks and process systems.\n39 Tanks. All tanks are equipped with liquid level sensors that give a reading of the tank liquid volume. All\n40 of the tanks are equipped further with liquid level alarms that are actuated if the liquid volume is near the\n41 tank overflow capacity. In the actuation of the surge tank alarm, a liquid level switch trips, sending a\n42 signal to the valve actuator on the tank influent lines, and causing the influent valves to close.\n43 The operating mode for each verification tank, i.e., receiving, holding, or discharging, can be designated\n44 through the MCS; modes also switch automatically. When the high-level set point on the receiving\n45 verification tank is reached, the flow to this tank is diverted and another tank becomes the receiver. The\n46 full tank is switched into verification mode. The third tank is reserved for discharge mode.\nAddendum C.28\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 The liquid levels in the pH adjustment, first and second RO feed, and effluent pH adjustment tanks are\n2 maintained within predetermined operating ranges. Should any of these tanks overflow, the excess waste\n3 is piped along with any leakage from the feed pumps to a sump tank.\n4 When waste in a secondary waste-receiving tank reaches the high-level set point, the influent flow of\n5 waste is redirected to the second tank. In a similar fashion, the concentrate tanks switch receipt modes\n6 when the high-level set point of one tank is reached.\n7 Filter Systems. All filters at 200 Area ETF (i.e., the Load-In Station, rough, fine, and auxiliary filter\n8 systems) are in leak-tight steel casings. For the rough and fine filters, a high differential pressure, which\n9 could damage the filter element, activates a valve that shuts off liquid flow to protect the filter element\n10 from possible damage. To prevent a high-pressure situation, the filters are cleaned routinely with pulses\n11 of compressed air that force water back through the filter. Cleaning is terminated automatically by\n12 shutting off the compressed air supply if high pressure develops. The differential pressure across the\n13 auxiliary filters also is monitored. A high differential pressure in these filters would result in a system\n14 shutdown to allow the filters to be changed out.\n15 The Load-In Station filtration system has pressure gauges for monitoring the differential pressure across\n16 each filter. A high differential pressure would result in discontinuing filter operation until the filter is\n17 replaced.\n18 Ultraviolet Light/Oxidation System and Decomposers. A rupture disk on the inlet piping to each of\n19 the UV/OX reaction vessels relieves to the pH adjustment tank in the event of excessive pressure\n20 developing in the piping system. Should the rupture disk fail, the aqueous waste would trip the moisture\n21 sensor, shut down the UV lamps, and close the surge tank feed valve. Also provided is a level sensor to\n22 protect UV lamps against the risk of exposure to air. Should those sensors be actuated, the UV lamps\n23 would be shut down immediately.\n24 The piping and valving for the hydrogen peroxide decomposers are configured to split the waste flow:\n25 half flows to one decomposer and half flows to the other decomposer. Alternatively, the total flow of\n26 waste can be treated in one decomposer or both decomposers can be bypassed. A safety relief valve on\n27 each decomposer vessel can relieve excess system pressure to a sump tank.\n28 Degasification System. The degasification column is typically supplied aqueous waste feed by the pH\n29 adjustment tank feed pump. This pump transfers waste solution through the hydrogen peroxide\n30 decomposer, the fine filter, and the degasification column to the first RO feed tank.\n31 The degasification column is designed for operation at a partial vacuum. A pressure sensor in the outlet\n32 of the column detects the column pressure. The vacuum in the degasification column is maintained by a\n33 blower connected to the vessel off gas system. The column is protected from extremely low pressure\n34 developed by the column blower by the use of an intake vent that is maintained in the open position\n35 during operation. The column liquid level is regulated by a flow control system with a high- and low-\n36 level alarm. Plate-type heat exchanger cools the waste solution fed to the degasification column.\n37 Reverse Osmosis System. The flow through the first and second RO stages is controlled to maintain\n38 constant liquid levels in the first and second stage RO feed tanks.\n39 Polisher. Typically, two of the three columns are in operation (lead/lag) and the third (regenerated)\n40 column is in standby. When the capacity of the resin in the first column is exceeded, as detected by an\n41 increase in the conductivity of the column effluent, the third column, containing freshly regenerated IX\n42 resin, is brought online. The first column is taken offline, and the waste is rerouted to the second column,\n43 and to the third. Liquid level instrumentation and automatically operated valves are provided in the IX\n44 system to prevent overfilling.\n45 Effluent Treatment Facility Evaporator. Liquid level instrumentation in the secondary waste receiving\n46 tanks is designed to preclude a tank overflow. A liquid level switch actuated by a high-tank liquid level\n47 causes the valves to reposition, closing off flow to the secondary waste receiving tanks. Secondary\n48 containment for these tanks routes liquids to a sump tank.\nAddendum C.29\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Valves in the 200 Area ETF evaporator feed line can be positioned to bypass the secondary waste around\n2 the 200 Area ETF evaporator and to transfer the secondary waste to the concentrate tanks.\n3 Thin Film Dryer. The two concentrate tanks alternately feed the thin film dryer. Typically, one tank\n4 serves as a concentrate waste receiver while the other tank serves as the dryer feed tank. One tank may\n5 serve as both concentrate waste receiver and dryer feed tank. Liquid level instrumentation prevents tank\n6 overflow by diverting the concentrate flow from the full concentrate tank to the other concentrate tank.\n7 Secondary containment for these tanks routes liquids to a sump tank.\n8 An alternate route is provided from the concentrate receiver tank to the secondary waste receiving tanks.\n9 Dilute concentrate in the concentrate receiver tank can be reprocessed through the 200 Area ETF\n10 evaporator by transferring the concentrate back to a secondary waste-receiving tank.\n11 C.4.5 Labels or Signs\n12 Each tank or process unit in the 200 Area ETF is identified by a nameplate attached in a readily visible\n13 location. Included on the nameplate are the equipment number and the equipment title. Those tanks that\n14 store or treat dangerous waste at the 200 Area ETF (Section C.4. 1.1) are identified with a label, which\n15 reads PROCESS WATER/WASTE. The labels are legible at a distance of at least fifty feet or as\n16 appropriate for legibility within the ETF. Additionally, these tanks bear a legend that identifies the waste\n17 in a manner, which adequately warns employees, emergency personnel, and the public of the major risk(s)\n18 associated with the waste being stored or treated in the tank system(s).\n19 Caution plates are used to show possible hazards and warn that precautions are necessary. Caution signs\n20 have a yellow background and black panel with yellow letters and bear the word CA UTION. Danger\n21 signs show immediate danger and signify that special precautions are necessary. These signs are red,\n22 black, and white and bear the word DANGER.\n23 Tanks and vessels containing corrosive chemicals are posted with black and white signs bearing the word\n24 CORROSIVE. DANGER -UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL KEEP OUT signs are posted on all exterior\n25 doors of the ETF, and on each interior door leading into the process area. Tank ancillary piping is also\n26 labeled PROCESS WATER or PROCESS LIQUID to alert personnel which pipes in the process area\n27 contains dangerous and/or mixed waste.\n28 All tank systems holding dangerous waste are marked with labels or signs to identify the waste contained\n29 in the tanks. The labels or signs are legible at a distance of at least 50-feet and bear a legend that\n30 identifies the waste in a manner that adequately warns employees, emergency response personnel, and the\n31 public, of the major risk(s) associated with the waste being stored or treated in the tank system(s).\n32 C.4.6 Air Emissions\n33 Tank systems that contain extremely hazardous waste that is acutely toxic by inhalation must be designed\n34 to prevent the escape of such vapors. To date, no extremely hazardous waste has been managed in\n35 200 Area ETF tanks and is not anticipated. However, the 200 Area ETF tanks have forced ventilation that\n36 draws air from the tank vapor spaces to prevent exposure of operating personnel to any toxic vapors that\n37 might be present. The vapor passes through a charcoal filter and two sets of high-efficiency particulate\n38 air filters before discharge to the environment. The Load-in tanks and verification tanks are vented to the\n39 atmosphere.\n40 C.4.7 Management of Ignitable or Reactive Wastes in Tanks Systems\n41 Although the 200 Area ETF is permitted to accept waste that is designated ignitable or reactive, such\n42 waste would be treated or blended immediately after placement in the tank system so that the resulting\n43 waste mixture is no longer ignitable or reactive. Aqueous waste received does not meet the definition of a\n44 combustible or flammable liquid given in National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) code number\n45 30 (NFPA 1996).\n46\nAddendum C.30\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI The buffer zone requirements in NFPA-30, which require tanks containing combustible or flammable\n2 solutions be a safe distance from each other and from public way, are not applicable.\n3 C.4.8 Management of Incompatible Wastes in Tanks Systems\n4 The 200 Area ETF manages dilute solutions that can be mixed without compatibility issues. The\n5 200 Area ETF is equipped with several systems that can adjust the pH of the waste for treatment\n6 activities. Sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide are added to the process through the MCS for pH\n7 adjustment to ensure there will be no large pH fluctuations and adverse reactions in the tank systems.\n8 C.5 Surface Impoundments\n9 This section provides specific information on surface impoundment operations at the LERF, including\n10 descriptions of the liners and secondary containment structures, as required by WAC 173-303-650 and\n11 WAC 173-303-806(4)(d).\n12 The LERF consists of three lined surface impoundments (basins) with a design operating capacity of\n13 29.5 million liters each. The maximum capacity of each basin is 34 million liters. The dimensions of\n14 each basin at the anchor wall are approximately 103 meters by 85 meters. The typical top dimensions of\n15 the wetted area are approximately 89 meters by 71 meters, while the bottom dimensions are\n16 approximately 57 by 38 meters. Total depth from the top of the dike to the bottom of the basin is\n17 approximately 7 meters. The typical finished basin bottoms lie at about 4 meters below the initial grade\n18 and 175 meters above sea level. The dikes separating the basins have a typical height of 3 meters and\n19 typical top width of 11.6 meters around the perimeter of the impoundments.\n20 C.5.1 List of Dangerous Waste\n21 A list of dangerous and/or mixed aqueous waste that can be stored in LERF is presented in Addendum A.\n22 Addendum B, Waste Analysis Plan also provides a discussion of the types of waste that are managed in\n23 the LERF.\n24 C.5.2 Construction, Operation, and Maintenance of Liner System\n25 General information concerning the liner system is presented in the following sections. Information\n26 regarding loads on the liner, liner coverage, UV light exposure prevention, and location relative to the\n27 water table are discussed.\n28 C.5.2.1 Liner Construction Materials\n29 The LERF employs a double-composite liner system with a leachate detection, collection, and removal\n30 system between the primary and secondary liners. Each basin is constructed with an upper or primary\n31 liner consisting of a high-density polyethylene geomembrane laid over a bentonite carpet liner. The lower\n32 or secondary liner in each basin is a composite of a geomembrane laid over a layer of soil/bentonite\n33 admixture with a hydraulic conductivity less than 10' centimeters per second. The synthetic liners extend\n34 up the dike wall to a concrete anchor wall that surrounds the basin at the top of the dike. A batten system\n35 bolts the layers in place to the anchor wall (Figure C.16).\n36 Figure C.17 is a schematic cross-section of the liner system. The liner components, listed from the top to\n37 the bottom of the liner system, are the following:\n38 * Primary 1.5-millimeter high-density polyethylene geomembrane\n39 * Bentonite carpet liner\n40 * Geotextile\n41 * Drainage gravel (bottom) and geonet (sides)\n42 * Geotextile\n43 * Secondary 1.5-millimeter high-density polyethylene geomembrane\n44 * Soil/bentonite admixture (91 centimeters on the bottom, 107 centimeters on the sides)\nAddendum C.31\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n* Geotextile\n2 The primary geomembrane, made of 1.5-millimeter high-density polyethylene, forms the basin surface\n3 that holds the aqueous waste. The secondary geomembrane, also 1.5-millimeter high-density\n4 polyethylene, forms a barrier surface for leachate that might penetrate the primary liner. The high-density\n5 polyethylene chemically is resistant to constituents in the aqueous waste and has a relatively high strength\n6 compared to other lining materials. The high-density polyethylene resin specified for the LERF contains\n7 carbon black, antioxidants, and heat stabilizers to enhance its resistance to the degrading effects of UV\n8 light. The approach to ensuring the compatibility of aqueous waste streams with the LERF liner materials\n9 and piping is discussed in Addendum B, Waste Analysis Plan.\n10 Three geotextile layers are used in the LERF liner system. The layers are thin, nonwoven polypropylene\n11 fabric that chemically is resistant, highly permeable, and resistant to microbiological growth. The first\n12 two layers prevent fine soil particles from infiltrating and clogging the drainage layer. The second\n13 geotextile also provides limited protection for the secondary geomembrane from the drainage rock. The\n14 third geotextile layer prevents the mixing of the soil/bentonite admixture with the much more porous and\n15 granular foundation material.\n16 A 30.5-centimeters-thick gravel drainage layer on the bottom of the basins between the primary and\n17 secondary liners provides a flow path for liquid to the leachate detection, collection, and removal system.\n18 A geonet (or drainage net) is located immediately above the secondary geomembrane on the basin\n19 sidewalls. The geonet functions as a preferential flow path for liquid between the liners, carrying liquid\n20 down to the gravel drainage layer and subsequently to the leachate sump. The geonet is a mesh made of\n21 high-density polyethylene, with approximately 13-millimeter openings.\n22 The soil/bentonite layer is 91 centimeters thick on the bottom of the basins and 107 centimeters thick on\n23 the basin sidewalls; its permeability is less than 10-7 centimeters per second. This composite liner design,\n24 consisting of a geomembrane laid over essentially impermeable soil/bentonite, is considered best\n25 available technology for solid waste landfills and surface impoundments. The combination of synthetic\n26 and clay liners is reported in the literature to provide the maximum protection from waste migration\n27 (Forseth and Kmet 1983).\n28 A number of laboratory tests were conducted to measure the engineering properties of the soil/bentonite\n29 admixture, in addition to extensive field tests performed on three test fills constructed near the LERF site.\n30 For establishing an optimum ratio of bentonite to soil for the soil/bentonite admixture, mixtures of various\n31 ratios were tested to determine permeability and shear strength. A mixture of 12 percent bentonite was\n32 selected for the soil/bentonite liner and tests described in the following paragraphs demonstrated that the\n33 admixture meets the desired permeability of less than 10-7 centimeters per second. Detailed discussion of\n34 test procedures and results is provided in Report of Geotechnical Investigation, 242-A Evaporation and\n35 PUREX Interim Storage Basins (Chen-Northem 1990).\n36 Direct shear tests were performed according to ASTM D3080 test procedures (ASTM 1990) on\n37 soil/bentonite samples of various ratios. Based on these results, the conservative minimum Mohr-\n38 Coulomb shear strength value of 30 degrees was estimated for a soil/bentonite admixture containing\n39 12 percent bentonite.\n40 The high degree of compaction of the soil/bentonite layer [92 percent per ASTM Dl 557 (ASTM 1991)]\n41 was expected to maximize the bonding forces between the clay particles, thereby minimizing moisture\n42 transport through the liner. With respect to particle movement ('piping'), estimated fluid velocities in this\n43 low-permeability material are too low to move the soil particles. Therefore, piping is not considered a\n44 problem.\n45 For the soil/bentonite layer, three test fills were constructed to demonstrate that materials, methods, and\n46 procedures used would produce a soil/bentonite liner that meets the EPA permeability requirement of less\n47 than 10' centimeters per second. All test fills met the EPA requirements.\n48\nAddendum C.32\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 A thorough discussion of construction procedures, testing, and results is provided in Report of\n2 Permeability Testing, Soil-bentonite Test Fill (Chen-Northern 1991 a).\n3 The aqueous waste stored in the LERF is typically a dilute mixture of organic and inorganic constituents.\n4 Though isolated instances of soil liner incompatibility have been documented in the literature (Forseth\n5 and Kmet 1983), these instances have occurred with concentrated solutions that were incompatible with\n6 the geomembrane liners in which the solutions were contained. Considering the dilute nature of the\n7 aqueous waste that is and will be stored in LERF and the moderate pH, and test results demonstrating the\n8 compatibility of the high-density polyethylene liners with the aqueous waste [9090 Test Results\n9 (WHC 1991)], gross failure of the soil/bentonite layer is not probable.\n10 Each basin also is equipped with a floating very low-density polyethylene cover. The cover is anchored\n11 and tensioned at the concrete wall at the top of the dikes, using a patented mechanical tensioning system.\n12 Figure C.16 depict the tension mechanism and the anchor wall at the perimeter of each basin. Additional\n13 information on the cover system is provided in Section C.5.2.5.\n14 C.5.2.1.1 Material Specifications\n15 Material specifications for the liner system and leachate collection system, including liners, drainage\n16 gravel, and drainage net are discussed in the following sections. Material specifications are documented\n17 in the Final Specifications 242-A Evaporator and PUREX Interim Retention Basins (KEH 1990a) and\n18 Construction Specifications for 242-A Evaporator and PUREXInterim Retention Basins (KEH 1990b).\n19 Geomembrane Liners. The high-density polyethylene resin for geomembranes for the LERF meets the\n20 material specifications listed in Table C.9. Key physical properties include thickness (1.5 millimeters\n21 [60 mil]) and impermeability (hydrostatic resistance of over 360,000 kilogram per square meter).\n22 Physical properties meet National Sanitation Foundation Standard 54 (NSF 1985). Testing to determine\n23 if the liner material is compatible with typical dilute waste solutions was performed and documented in\n24 9090 Test Results (WHC 1991).\n25 Soil/Bentonite Liner. The soil/bentonite admixture consists of 11.5 to 14.5 percent bentonite mixed into\n26 well-graded silty sand with a maximum particle size of 4.75 millimeters (No. 4 sieve). Test fills were\n27 performed to confirm the soil/bentonite admixture applied at LERF has hydraulic conductivity less than\n28 10' centimeters per second, as required by WAC 173-303-650(2)() for new surface impoundments.\n29 Bentonite Carpet Liner. The bentonite carpet liner consists of bentonite (90 percent sodium\n30 montmorillonite clay) in a primary backing of woven polypropylene with nylon filler fiber, and a cover\n31 fabric of open weave spunlace polyester. The montmorillonite is anticipated to retard migration of\n32 solution through the liner, exhibiting a favorable cation exchange for adsorption of some constituents\n33 (such as ammonium). Based on composition of the bentonite carpet and of the type of aqueous waste\n34 stored at LERF, no chemical attack, dissolution, or degradation of the bentonite carpet liner is anticipated.\n35 Geotextile. The nonwoven geotextile layers consist of long-chain polypropylene polymers containing\n36 stabilizers and inhibitors to make the filaments resistant to deterioration from UV light and heat exposure.\n37 The geotextile layers consist of continuous geotextile sheets held together by needle punching. Edges of\n38 the fabric are sealed or otherwise finished to prevent outer material from pulling away from the fabric or\n39 raveling.\n40 Drainage Gravel. The drainage layer consists of thoroughly washed and screened, naturally occurring\n41 rock meeting the size specifications for Grading Number 5 in Washington State Department of\n42 Transportation construction specifications (WSDOT 1988). The specifications for the drainage layer are\n43 given in Table C.10. Hydraulic conductivity tests (Chen-Northern 1992a, 1992b, 1992c) showed the\n44 drainage rock used at LERF met the sieve requirements and had a hydraulic conductivity of at least\n45 1 centimeter per second, which exceeded the minimum of at least 0.1 centimeters per second required by\n46 WAC 173-303-650(2)(j) for new surface impoundments.\n47\nAddendum C.33\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Geonet. The geonet is fabricated from two sets of parallel high-density polyethylene strands, spaced\n2 1.3 centimeters center-to-center maximum to form a mesh with minimum two strands per 2.54 centimeter\n3 in each direction. The geonet is located between the liners on the sloping sidewalls to provide a\n4 preferential flow path for leachate to the drainage gravel and subsequently to the leachate sump.\n5 Leachate Collection Sump. Materials used to line the 3.0-meter by 1.8-meter by 0.30-meter-deep\n6 leachate sump, at the bottom of each basin in the northwest corner, include [from top to bottom\n7 (Figure C.18)]:\n8 * 25 millimeter high-density polyethylene flat stock (supporting the leachate riser pipe)\n9 * Geotextile\n10 * 1.5-millimeter high-density polyethylene rub sheet\n11 * Secondary composite liner:\n12 o 1.5-millimeter high-density polyethylene geomembrane\n13 o 91 centimeters of soil/bentonite admixture\n14 o Geotextile\n15 Specifications for these materials are identical to those discussed previously.\n16 Leachate System Risers. Risers for the leachate system consist of 10-inch and 4-inch pipes from the\n17 leachate collection sump to the catch basin northwest of each basin (Figure C. 18). The risers lay below\n18 the primary liner in a gravel-filled trench that also extends from the sump to the concrete catch basin.\n19 The risers are high-density polyethylene pipes fabricated to meet the requirements in ASTM D1248\n20 (ASTM 1989). The 10-inch riser is perforated every 20.3 centimeters with 1.3-centimeter holes around\n21 the diameter. Level sensors and leachate pump are inserted in the 10-inch riser to monitor and remove\n22 leachate from the sump. To prevent clogging of the pump and piping with fine particulate, the end of the\n23 riser is encased in a gravel-filled box constructed of high-density polyethylene geonet and wrapped in\n24 geotextile. The 4-inch riser is perforated every 10.2 centimeters with 0.64-centimeter holes around the\n25 diameter. A level detector is inserted in the 4-inch riser.\n26 Leachate Pump. A deep-well submersible pump, designed to deliver approximately 110 liters per\n27 minute, is installed in the 10-inch leachate riser in each basin. Wetted parts of the leachate pump are\n28 made of 316L stainless steel, providing both corrosion resistance and durability.\n29 C.S.2.1.2 Loads on Liner System\n30 The LERF liner system is subjected to the following types of stresses.\n31 Stresses from Installation or Construction Operations. Contractors were required to submit\n32 construction quality control plans that included procedures, techniques, tools, and equipment used for the\n33 construction and care of liner and leachate system. Methods for installation of all components were\n34 screened to ensure that the stresses on the liner system were kept to a minimum.\n35 Calculations were performed to estimate the risk of damage to the secondary high-density polyethylene\n36 liner during construction (Calculations for LERF Part B Permit Application [HNF 1997]). The greatest\n37 risk expected was from spreading the gravel layer over the geotextile layer and secondary geomembrane.\n38 The results of the calculations show that the strength of the geotextile was sufficiently high to withstand\n39 the stress of a small gravel spreader driving on a minimum of 15 centimeters of gravel over the geotextile\n40 and geomembrane. The likelihood of damage to the geomembrane lying under the geotextile was\n41 considered low.\n42 To avoid driving heavy machinery directly on the secondary liner, a 28-meter conveyer was used to\n43 deliver the drainage gravel into the basins. The gravel was spread and consolidated by hand tools and a\n44 bulldozer. The bulldozer traveled on a minimum thickness of 30.5 centimeters of gravel.\nAddendum C.34\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Where the conveyer assembly was placed on top of the liner, cribbing was placed to distribute the\n2 conveyer weight. No heavy equipment was allowed for use directly in contact with the geomembranes.\n3 Additional calculations were performed to estimate the ability of the leachate riser pipe to withstand the\n4 static and dynamic loading imposed by lightweight construction equipment riding on the gravel layer\n5 (HNF 1997). Those calculations demonstrated that the pipe could buckle under the dynamic loading of\n6 small construction equipment; therefore, the pipe was avoided by equipment during spreading of the\n7 drainage gravel.\n8 Installation of synthetic lining materials proceeded only when winds were less than 24 kilometers per\n9 hour, and not during precipitation. The minimum ambient air temperature for unfolding or unrolling the\n10 high-density polyethylene sheets was -10 C, and a minimum temperature of 0 C was required for seaming\n11 the high-density polyethylene sheets. Between shifts, geomembranes and geotextile were anchored with\n12 sandbags to prevent lifting by wind. Calculations were performed to determine the appropriate spacing of\n13 sandbags on the geomembrane to resist lifting caused by 130 kilometer per hour winds (HNF 1997). All\n14 of the synthetic components contain UV light inhibitors and no impairment of performance is anticipated\n15 from the short-term UV light exposure during construction. Section C.5.2.4 provides further detail on\n16 exposure prevention.\n17 During the laying of the soil/bentonite layer and the overlying geomembrane, moisture content of the\n18 admixture was monitored and adjusted to ensure optimum compaction and to avoid development of\n19 cracks.\n20 C.5.2.1.3 Static and Dynamic Loads and Stresses from the Maximum Quantity of Waste\n21 When a LERF basin is full, liquid depth is approximately 6.4 meters. Static load on the primary liner is\n22 roughly 6,400 kilograms per square meter. Load on the secondary liner is slightly higher because of the\n23 weight of the gravel drainage layer. Assuming a density of 805 kilograms per square meter for the\n24 drainage gravel [conservative estimate based on specific gravity of 2.65 (Ambrose 1988)], the secondary\n25 high-density polyethylene liner carries approximately 7,200 kilograms per square meter when a basin is\n26 full.\n27 Side slope liner stresses were calculated for each of the layers in the basin sidewalls and for the pipe\n28 trench on the northwest corner of each basin (HNF 1997). Results of these calculations indicate factors of\n29 safety against shear were 1.5 or greater for the primary geomembrane, geotextile, geonet, and secondary\n30 geomembrane.\n31 Because the LERF is not located in an area of seismic concern, as identified in Appendix VI of\n32 40 CFR 264 and WAC 173-303-282(6)(a)(I), discussion and calculation of potential seismic events are\n33 not required.\n34 C.5.2.1.4 Stresses Resulting from Settlement, Subsidence, or Uplift\n35 Uplift stresses from natural sources are expected to have negligible impact on the liner. Groundwater lies\n36 approximately 62 meters below the LERF, average annual precipitation is only 16 centimeters, and the\n37 average unsaturated permeability of the soils near the basin bottoms is high, ranging from about\n38 5.5 x 104 centimeters per second to about I centimeter per second (Chen-Northern 199 1b). Therefore, no\n39 hydrostatic uplift forces are expected to develop in the soil underneath the basins. In addition, the soil\n40 under the basins consists primarily of gravel and sand, and contains few or no organic constituents.\n41 Therefore, uplift caused by gas production from organic degradation is not anticipated.\n42 Based on the design of the soil-bentonite liner, no structural uplift stresses are present within the lining\n43 system (Chen-Northern 199 1b).\n44 Regional subsidence is not anticipated because neither petroleum nor extractable economic minerals are\n45 present in the strata underlying the LERF basins, nor is karst (erosive limestone) topography present.\n46\nAddendum C.35\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Dike soils and soil/bentonite layers were compacted thoroughly and proof-rolled during construction.\n2 Calculation of settlement potential showed that combined settlement for the foundation and soil/bentonite\n3 layer is expected to be about 2.7 centimeters. Settlement impact on the liner and basin stability is\n4 expected to be minimal (Chen-Northem 199 1b).\n5 C.5.2.1.5 Internal and External Pressure Gradients\n6 Pressure gradients across the liner system from groundwater are anticipated to be negligible. The LERF\n7 is about 62 meters above the seasonal high water table, which prevents buildup of water pressure below\n8 the liner. The native gravel foundation materials of the LERF are relatively permeable and free draining.\n9 The 2 percent slope of the secondary liner prevents the pooling of liquids on top of the secondary liner.\n10 Finally, the fill rate of the basins is slow enough (average 190 liters per minute) that the load of the liquid\n11 waste on the primary liner is gradually and evenly distributed.\n12 To prevent the buildup of gas between the liners, each basin is equipped with 21 vents in the primary\n13 geomembrane located above the maximum water level that allow the reduction of any excess gas\n14 pressure. Gas passing through these vents exit through a single pipe that penetrates the anchor wall into a\n15 carbon adsorption filter. This filter extracts nearly all of the organic compounds, ensuring that emissions\n16 to the air from the basins are not toxic.\n17 C.5.2.2 Liner System Location Relative to High-Water Table\n18 The lowest point of each LERF basin is the northwest corner of the sump, where the typical subgrade\n19 elevation is 175 meters above mean sea level. Based on data collected from the groundwater monitoring\n20 wells at the LERF site, the seasonal high-water table is located approximately 62 meters or more below\n21 the lowest point of the basins. This substantial thickness of unsaturated strata beneath the LERF provides\n22 ample protection to the liner from hydrostatic pressure because of groundwater intrusion into the\n23 soil/bentonite layer. Further discussion of the unsaturated zone and site hydrogeology is provided in\n24 Addendum D, Groundwater Monitoring Plan.\n25 C.5.2.3 Liner System Foundation\n26 Foundation materials are primarily gravels and cobbles with some sand and silt. The native soils onsite\n27 are derived from unconsolidated Holocene sediments. These sediments are fluvial and glaciofluvial sands\n28 and gravels deposited during the most recent glacial and postglacial event. Grain-size distributions and\n29 shape analyses of the sediments indicate that deposition occurred in a high-energy environment (Chen-\n30 Northern 1990).\n31 Analysis of five soil borings from the LERF site was conducted to characterize the natural foundation\n32 materials and to determine the suitability of onsite soils for construction of the impoundment dikes and\n33 determine optimal design factors. Well-graded gravel containing varying amounts of silt, sand, and\n34 cobbles comprises the layer in which the basins were excavated. This gravel layer extends to depths of\n35 10 to 11 meters below land surface (Chen-Northern 1990). The basins are constructed directly on the\n36 subgrade. Excavated soils were screened to remove oversize cobbles (greater than 15 centimeters in the\n37 largest dimension) and used to construct the dikes.\n38 Settlement potential of the foundation material and soil/bentonite layer was found to be low. The\n39 foundation is comprised of undisturbed native soils. The bottom of the basin excavation lies within the\n40 well-graded gravel layer, and is dense to very dense. Below the gravel is a layer of dense to very dense\n41 poorly graded and well-graded sand. Settlement was calculated for the gravel foundation soils and for the\n42 soil/bentonite layer, under the condition of hydrostatic loading from 6.4 meters of fluid depth. The\n43 combined settlement for the soils and the soil/bentonite layer is estimated to be about 2.7 centimeters.\n44 This amount of settlement is expected to have minimal impact on overall liner or basin stability\n45 (Chen-Northem 199 1b). Settlement calculations are provided in Calculations for Liquid Effluent\n46 Retention Facility Part B Permit Application (HNF 1997).\n47\nAddendum C.36\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 The load bearing capacity of the foundation material, based on the soil analysis discussed previously, is\n2 estimated at about 48,800 kilograms per square meter [maximum advisable presumptive bearing capacity\n3 (Hough 1969)]. Anticipated static and dynamic loading from a full basin is estimated to be less than\n4 9,000 kilograms per square meter (Section C.5.2.1.3), which provides an ample factor of safety.\n5 When the basins are empty, excess hydrostatic pressure in the foundation materials under the liner system\n6 theoretically could result in uplift and damage. However, because the native soil forming the foundations\n7 is unsaturated and relatively permeable, and because the water table is located at a considerable depth\n8 beneath the basins, any infiltration of surface water at the edge of the basin is expected to travel\n9 predominantly downward and away from the basins, rather than collecting under the excavation itself.\n10 No gas is expected in the foundation because gas-generating organic materials are not present.\n11 Subsidence of undisturbed foundation materials is generally the result of fluid extraction (water or\n12 petroleum), mining, or karst topography. Neither petroleum, mineral resources, nor karst are believed to\n13 be present in the sediments overlying the Columbia River basalts. Potential groundwater resources do\n14 exist below the LERF. Even if these sediments were to consolidate from fluid withdrawal, their depth\n15 most likely would produce a broad, gently sloping area of subsidence that would not cause significant\n16 strains in the LERF liner system. Consequently, the potential for subsidence related failures are expected\n17 to be negligible.\n18 Borings at the LERF site, and extensive additional borings in the 200 East Area, have not identified any\n19 significant quantities of soluble materials in the foundation soil or underlying sediments (Last et al. 1989).\n20 Consequently, the potential for sinkholes is considered negligible.\n21 C.5.2.4 Liner System Exposure Prevention\n22 Both primary and secondary geomembranes and the floating cover are stabilized with carbon black to\n23 prevent degradation from UV light. Furthermore, none of the liner layers experience long-term exposure\n24 to the elements. During construction, thin polyethylene sheeting was used to maintain optimum moisture\n25 content and provide protection from the wind for the soil/bentonite layer until the secondary\n26 geomembrane was laid in place. The secondary geomembrane was covered by the geonet and geotextile\n27 as soon as quality control testing was complete. Once the geotextile layer was completed, drainage\n28 material immediately was placed over the geotextile. The final (upper) geotextile layer was placed over\n29 the drainage gravel and immediately covered by the bentonite carpet liner. This was covered\n30 immediately, in turn, by the primary high-density polyethylene liner.\n31 Both high-density polyethylene liners, geotextile layers, and geonet are anchored permanently to a\n32 concrete wall at the top of the basin berm. During construction, liners were held in place with many\n33 sandbags on both the basin bottoms and side slopes to prevent wind from lifting and damaging the\n34 materials. Calculations were performed to determine the amount of fluid needed in a basin to prevent\n35 wind lift damage to the primary geomembrane. Approximately 15 to 20 centimeters of solution are kept\n36 in each basin to minimize the potential for uplifting the primary liner (HNF 1997).\n37 The entire lining system is covered by a very low-density polyethylene floating cover that is bolted to the\n38 concrete anchor wall. The floating cover prevents evaporation and intrusion from dust, precipitation,\n39 vegetation, animals, and birds. A patented tensioning system is employed to prevent wind from lifting the\n40 cover and automatically accommodate changes in liquid level in the basins. The cover tension\n41 mechanism consists of a cable running from the flexible geosynthetic cover over a pulley on the tension\n42 tower (located on the concrete anchor wall) to a dead man anchor. These anchors (blocks) simply hang\n43 from the cables on the exterior side of the tension towers. The anchor wall also provides for solid\n44 attachment of the liner layers and the cover, using a 6.4-millimeter batten and neoprene gasket to bolt the\n45 layers to the concrete wall, effectively sealing the basin from the intrusion of light, precipitation, and\n46 airborne dust (Figure C.16).\n47\nAddendum C.37\n WA7890008967LERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 The floating cover, made of very low-density polyethylene with UV light inhibitors, is not anticipated to\n2 experience unacceptable degradation during the service life of the LERF. The very low-density\n3 polyethylene material contains carbon black for UV light protection, anti-oxidants to prevent heat\n4 degradation, and seaming enhancers to improve its ability to be welded. A typical manufacturer's limited\n5 warranty for weathering of very low-density polyethylene products is 20 years (Poly America, undated).\n6 This provides a margin of safety for the anticipated medium-term use of the LERF for aqueous waste\n7 storage.\n8 The upper 3.4 to 4.6 meters of the sidewall liner also could experience stresses in response to temperature\n9 changes. Accommodation of thermal influences for the LERF geosynthetic layers is affected by inclusion\n10 of sufficient slack as the liners were installed. Calculations demonstrate that approximately\n11 67 centimeters of slack is required in the long basin bottom dimension, 46 centimeters across the basin,\n12 and 34 centimeters from the bottom of the basin to the top of the basin wall (HNF 1997).\n13 Thermal stresses also are experienced by the floating cover. As with the geomembranes, sufficient slack\n14 was included in the design to accommodate thermal contraction and expansion.\n15 C.5.2.4.1 Liner Repairs During Operations\n16 Should repair of a basin liner be required while the basin is in operation, the basin contents will be\n17 transferred to the 200 Area ETF or another available basin. After the liner around the leaking section is\n18 cleaned, repairs to the geomembrane will be made by the application of a piece of high-density\n19 polyethylene sheeting, sufficient in size to extend approximately 8 to 15 centimeters beyond the damaged\n20 area, or as recommended by the vendor. A round or oval patch will be installed using the same type of\n21 equipment and criteria used for the initial field installations.\n22 C.5.2.4.2 Control of Air Emissions\n23 The floating covers limit evaporation of aqueous waste and releases of volatile organic compounds into\n24 the atmosphere. To accommodate volumetric changes in the air between the fluid in the basin and the\n25 cover, and to avoid problems related to 'sealing' the basins too tightly, each basin is equipped with a\n26 carbon filter breather vent system. Any air escaping from the basins must pass through this vent,\n27 consisting of a pipe that penetrates the anchor wall and extends into a carbon adsorption filter unit.\n28 C.5.2.5 Liner Coverage\n29 The liner system covers the entire ground surface that underlies the retention basins. The primary liner\n30 extends up the side slopes to a concrete anchor wall at the top of the dike encircling the entire basin\n31 (Figure C.16).\n32 C.5.3 Prevention of Overtopping\n33 Overtopping prevention is accomplished through administrative controls and liquid-level instrumentation\n34 installed in each basin. The instrumentation includes local liquid-level indication as well as remote\n35 indication at the ETF. Before an aqueous waste is transferred into a basin, administrative controls are\n36 implemented to ensure overtopping will not occur during the transfer. The volume of feed to be\n37 transferred is compared to the available volume in the receiving basin. The transfer is not initiated unless\n38 there is sufficient volume available in the receiving basin or a cut-off level is established. The transfer\n39 into the basin would be stopped when this cut-off level is reached.\n40 In the event of a 25-year, 24-hour storm event, precipitation would accumulate on the basin covers.\n41 Through the self-tensioning design of the basin covers and maintenance of adequate freeboard, all\n42 accumulated precipitation would be contained on the covers and none would flow over the dikes or\n43 anchor walls. The 25-year, 24-hour storm is expected to deliver 5.3 centimeters of rain or approximately\n44 61 centimeters of snow. Cover specifications include the requirement that the covers be able to withstand\n45 the load from this amount of precipitation. Because the cover floats on the surface of the fluid in the\n46 basin, the fluid itself provides the primary support for the weight of the accumulated precipitation.\nAddendum C.38\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Through the cover self-tensioning mechanism, there is ample 'give' to accommodate the overlying load\n2 without overstressing the anchor and attachment points.\n3 Rainwater and snow evaporate readily from the cover, particularly in the arid Hanford Facility climate,\n4 where evaporation rates exceed precipitation rates for most months of the year. The black color of the\n5 cover further enhances evaporation. Thus, the floating cover prevents the intrusion of precipitation into\n6 the basin and provides for evaporation of accumulated rain or snow.\n7 C.5.3.1 Freeboard\n8 Under current operating conditions, 0.61 meter of freeboard is maintained at each LERF basin, which\n9 corresponds to an operating level of 6.8 meters, or 29.5 million liters.\n10 C.5.3.2 Immediate Flow Shutoff\n11 The mechanism for transferring aqueous waste is either through pump transfers with on/off switches or\n12 through gravity transfers with isolation valves. These methods provide positive ability to shut off\n13 transfers immediately in the event of overtopping. Overtopping a basin during a transfer is very unlikely\n14 because the low flow rate into the basin provides long response times. At a flow rate of 284 liters per\n15 minute, approximately 11 days would be required to fill a LERF basin from the 6.8-meter operating level\n16 (i.e., 0.61 meter of freeboard) to maximum capacity of 34 million liters (i.e., the 7.4-meter level).\n17 C.5.3.3 Oufflow Destination\n18 Aqueous waste in the LERF is transferred routinely to 200 Area ETF for treatment. However, should it\n19 be necessary to immediately empty a basin, the aqueous waste either would be transferred to the 200 Area\n20 ETF for treatment or transferred to another basin (or basins), whichever is faster. If necessary a\n21 temporary pumping system may be installed to increase the transfer rate.\n22 C.5.4 Structural Integrity of Dikes\n23 The structural integrity of the dikes was certified attesting to the structural integrity of the dikes, signed\n24 by a qualified, registered professional engineer.\n25 C.5.4.1 Dike Design, Construction, and Maintenance\n26 The dikes of the LERF are constructed of onsite native soils, generally consisting of cobbles and gravels.\n27 Well-graded mixtures were specified, with cobbles up to 15 centimeters in the largest dimension, but not\n28 constituting more than 20 percent of the volume of the fill. The dikes are designed with a 3:1 (3 units\n29 horizontal to 1 unit vertical) slope on the basin side, and 2.25:1 on the exterior side. The dikes are\n30 approximately 8.2 meters high from the bottom of the basin, and 3 meters above grade.\n31 Calculations were performed to verify the structural integrity of the dikes (HNF 1997). The calculations\n32 demonstrate that the structural strength of the dikes is such that, without dependence on any lining\n33 system, the sides of the basins can withstand the pressure exerted by the maximum allowable quantity of\n34 fluid in the impoundment. The dikes have a factor of safety greater than 2.5 against failure by sliding.\n35 C.5.4.2 Dike Stability and Protection\n36 In the following paragraphs, various aspects of stability for the LERF dikes and the concrete anchor wall\n37 are presented, including slope failure, hydrostatic pressure, and protection from the environment.\n38 Failure in Dike/Impoundment Cut Slopes. A slope stability analysis was performed to determine the\n39 factor of safety against slope failure. The computer program 'PCSTABL5' from Purdue University, using\n40 the modified Janbu Method, was employed to evaluate slope stability under both static and seismic\n41 loading cases. One hundred surfaces per run were generated and analyzed. The assumptions used were\n42 as follows (Chen-Northem 1991b):\n43 * Weight of gravel: 2,160 kilograms per cubic meter.\n44 * Maximum dry density of gravel: 2,315 kilograms per cubic meter.\nAddendum C.39\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * Mohr-Coulomb shear strength angle for gravel: minimum 33 degrees.\n2 * Weight of soil/bentonite: 1,600 kilograms per cubic meter.\n3 * Mohr-Coulomb shear strength angle for soil/bentonite: minimum 30 degrees.\n4 * Slope: 3 horizontal: I vertical.\n5 * No fluid in impoundment (worst case for stability).\n6 * Soils at in-place moisture (not saturated conditions).\n7 Results of the static stability analysis showed that the dike slopes were stable with a minimum factor of\n8 safety of 1.77 (Chen-Northern 199 1b).\n9 The standard horizontal acceleration required in the Hanford Plant Standards, \"Standard Architectural-\n10 Civil Design Criteria, Design Loads for Facilities\" (DOE-RL 1988), for structures on the Hanford Site is\n11 0.12 g. Adequate factors of safety for cut slopes in units of this type generally are considered 1.5 for\n12 static conditions and 1.1 for dynamic stability (Golder 1989). Results of the stability analysis showed that\n13 the LERF basin slopes were stable under horizontal accelerations of 0.10 and 0.15 g, with minimum\n14 factors of safety of 1.32 and 1.17, respectively (Chen-Northern 1991b). Printouts from the PCSTABL5\n15 program are provided in Calculations for Liquid Effluent Retention Facility Part B Permit Application\n16 (HNF 1997).\n17 Hydrostatic Pressure. Failure of the dikes due to buildup of hydrostatic pressure, caused by failure of\n18 the leachate system or liners, is very unlikely. The liner system is constructed with two essentially\n19 impermeable layers consisting of a synthetic layer overlying a soil layer with low-hydraulic conductivity.\n20 It would require a catastrophic failure of both liners to cause hydrostatic pressures that could endanger\n21 dike integrity. Routine inspections of the leachate detection system, indicating quantities of leachate\n22 removed from the basins, provide an early warning of leakage or operational problems that could lead to\n23 excessive hydrostatic pressure. A significant precipitation event (e.g., a 25-year, 24-hour storm) will not\n24 create a hydrostatic problem because the interior sidewalls of the basins are covered completely by the\n25 liners. The covers can accommodate this volume of precipitation without overtopping the dike\n26 (Section C.5.3), and the coarse nature of the dike and foundation materials on the exterior walls provides\n27 for rapid drainage of precipitation away from the basins.\n28 Protection from Root Systems. Risk to structural integrity of the dikes because of penetrating root\n29 systems is minimal. Excavation and construction removed all vegetation on and around the\n30 impoundments, and native plants (such as sagebrush) grow very slowly. The large grain size of the\n31 cobbles and gravel used as dike construction material do not provide an advantageous germination\n32 medium for native plants. Should plants with extending roots become apparent on the dike walls, the\n33 plants will be controlled with appropriate herbicide application.\n34 Protection from Burrowing Mammals. The cobble size materials that make up the dike construction\n35 material and the exposed nature of the dike sidewalls do not offer an advantageous habitat for burrowing\n36 mammals. Lack of vegetation on the LERF site discourages foraging. The risk to structural integrity of\n37 the dikes from burrowing mammals is therefore minimal. Periodic visual inspections of the dikes provide\n38 observations of any animals present. Should burrowing mammals be noted onsite, appropriate pest\n39 control methods such as trapping or application of rodenticides will be employed.\n40 Protective Cover. Approximately 7.6 centimeters of crushed gravel serve as the cover of the exterior\n41 dike walls. This coarse material is inherently resistant to the effect of wind because of its large grain size.\n42 Total annual precipitation is low (16 centimeters) and a significant storm event (e.g., a 25-year, 24-hour\n43 storm) could result in about 5.3 centimeters of precipitation in a 24-hour period. The absorbent capacity\n44 of the soil exceeds this precipitation rate; therefore, the impact of wind and precipitation run-on to the\n45 exterior dike walls will be minimal.\nAddendum C.40\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 C.5.5 Piping Systems\n2 Aqueous waste from the 242-A Evaporator is transferred to the LERF using a pump located in the\n3 242-A Evaporator and approximately 1,500 meters of pipe, consisting of a 3-inch carrier pipe within a\n4 6-inch outer containment pipeline. Flow through the pump is controlled through a valve at flow rates\n5 from 150 to 300 liters per minute. The pipeline exits the 242-A Evaporator below grade and remains\n6 below grade at a minimum 1.2 meter depth for freeze protection, until the pipeline emerges at the LERF\n7 catch basin, at the corner of each basin. All piping at the catch basin that is less than 1.2 meters below\n8 grade is wrapped with electric heat tracing tape and insulated for protection from freezing.\n9 The transfer line from the 242-A Evaporator is centrifugally cast, fiberglass-reinforced epoxy thermoset\n10 resin pressure pipe fabricated to meet the requirements of ASME D2997 (ASME 1984). The 3-inch\n11 carrier piping is centered and supported within 6-inch containment piping. Pipe supports are fabricated of\n12 the same material as the pipe, and meet the strength requirements of ANSI B31.3 (ANSI 1987) for dead\n13 weight, thermal, and seismic loads. A catch basin is provided at the northwest comer of each basin where\n14 piping extends from the basin to allow for basin-to-basin and basin-to-200 Area ETF liquid transfers.\n15 Drawing H-2-88766, Sheets I through 4, provide schematic diagrams of the piping system at LERF.\n16 Drawing H-2-79604 provides details of the piping from the 242-A Evaporator to LERF.\n17 C.5.5.1 Secondary Containment System for Piping\n18 The 6-inch containment piping encases the 3-inch carrier pipe from the 242-A Evaporator to the LERF.\n19 All of the piping and fittings that are not directly over a catch basin or a basin liner are of this pipe-\n20 within-a-pipe construction. A catch basin is provided at the northwest corner of each basin where the\n21 inlet pipes, leachate risers, and transfer pipe risers emerge from the basin. The catch basin consists of a\n22 20-centimeter-thick concrete pad at the top of the dike. The perimeter of the catch basin has a\n23 20-centimeter-high curb, and the concrete is coated with a chemical resistant epoxy sealant. The concrete\n24 pad is sloped so that any leaks or spills from the piping or pipe connections will drain into the basin. The\n25 catch basin provides an access point for inspecting, servicing, and operating various systems such as\n26 transfer valving, leachate level instrumentation and leachate pump. Drawing H-2-79593 provides a\n27 schematic diagram of the catch basins.\n28 C.5.5.2 Leak Detection System\n29 During operation, the 242-A Evaporator receives dilute tank waste directly from the Tank Farms, treats\n30 waste by evaporation, and returns the concentrated waste to Tank Farms. The process condensate which\n31 is generated is transferred to LERF. Single-point electronic leak detection elements are installed along\n32 the transfer line at 305-meter intervals. The leak detection elements are located in the bottom of specially\n33 designed test risers. Each sensor element employs a conductivity sensor, which is connected to a cable\n34 leading back to the 242-A Evaporator control room. If a leak develops in the carrier pipe, fluid will travel\n35 down the exterior surface of the carrier pipe or the interior of the containment pipe. As moisture contacts\n36 a sensor unit, an alarm sounds in the ETF control room, which is monitored continuously when the 242-A\n37 evaporator is transferring liquids to LERF. If the alarm sounds, ETF Operations staff troubleshoots the\n38 alarm and, upon verification of a leak, requests that the pump located in the 242-A Evaporator be shut\n39 down to stop the flow of process condensate through the transfer line. The 242-A Evaporator has limited\n40 surge capacity, and its operation is closely tied to supporting Tank Farm operations. The flow of process\n41 condensate to LERF is not stopped automatically by indication of a possible leak in the primary transfer\n42 line. A low-volume air purge of the annulus between the carrier pipe and the containment pipe is\n43 provided to prevent condensation buildup and minimize false alarms by the leak detection elements.\n44 The catch basins have conductivity leak detectors that alarm in the ETF control room. Leak detector\n45 alarms are monitored in the control room continuously during aqueous waste transfers and at least daily\n46 when no transfers are occurring. Leaks into the catch basins drain back to the basin through a 5.1-\n47 centimeter drain on the floor of the catch basin.\nAddendum C.41\n WA7890008967LERF and 200 Area ETF\nI C.5.5.3 Certification\n2 Although an integrity assessment is not required for piping associated with surface impoundments, an\n3 assessment of the transfer liner was performed, including a hydrostatic leak/pressure test at\n4 10.5 kilograms per square centimeter gauge. A statement by an independent, qualified, registered\n5 professional engineer attesting to the integrity of the piping system is included in Integrity Assessment\n6 Report for the 242-A Evaporator/LERF Waste Transfer Piping, Project W105 (WHC 1993), along with\n7 the results of the leak/pressure test.\n8 C.5.6 Double Liner and Leak Detection, Collection, and Removal System\n9 The double-liner system for LERF is discussed in Section C.5.2. The leachate detection, collection, and\n10 removal system (Figure C.18) as designed and constructed to remove leachate that might permeate the\n11 primary liner. System components for each basin include:\n12 * 30.5-centimeter layer of drainage gravel below the primary liner at the bottom of the basin\n13 * Geonet below the primary liner on the sidewalls to direct leachate to the gravel layer\n14 * 3.0-meter by 1.8-meter by 0.30-meter-deep leachate collection sump consisting of a 25 millimeter\n15 high-density polyethylene flat stock, geotextile to trap large particles in the leachate, and\n16 1.5-millimeter high-density polyethylene rub sheet set on the secondary liner\n17 * 10-inch and 4-inch perforated leachate high-density polyethylene riser pipes from the leachate\n18 collection sump to the catch basin northwest of the basin\n19 * Leachate collection sump level instrumentation installed in the 4-inch riser\n20 * Level sensors, submersible leachate pump, and 1.5-inch fiberglass-reinforced epoxy thermoset\n21 resin pressure piping installed in the 10-inch riser\n22 * Piping at the catch basin to route the leachate through 1.5-inch high-density polyethylene pipe\n23 back to the basins\n24 The bottom of the basins has a two percent slope to allow gravity flow of leachate to the leachate\n25 collection sump. This exceeds the minimum of 1 percent slope required by WAC 173-303-650(j) for new\n26 surface impoundments. Material specifications for the leachate collection system are given in\n27 Section C.5.2.1.1.\n28 Calculations demonstrate that fluid from a small hole (2 millimeter) (EPA 1989, p. 122) at the furthest\n29 end of the basin, under a low head situation, would travel to the sump in less than 24 hours (HNF 1997).\n30 Additional calculations indicate the capacity of the pump to remove leachate is sufficient to allow time to\n31 readily identify a leak and activate emergency procedures (HNF 1997).\n32 The fluid level in each leachate sump is required to be maintained below 33 centimeters to prevent\n33 significant liquid backup into the drainage layer. The leachate pump is activated when the liquid level in\n34 the sump reaches about 28 centimeters, and is shut off when the sump liquid level reaches about\n35 18 centimeters. This operation may be done either manually or automatically. Liquid level control is\n36 accomplished with conductivity probes that trigger relays selected specifically for application to\n37 submersible pumps and leachate fluids. A flow meter/totalizer on the leachate return pipe measures fluid\n38 volumes pumped and pumping rate from the leachate collection sumps, and indicates volume and flow\n39 'rate on local readouts. In addition, a timer on the leachate pump tracks the cumulative pump operating\n40 time. Other instrumentation provided is real-time continuous level monitoring with readout at the catch\n41 basin. Leachate levels are monitored at least weekly. A sampling port is provided in the leachate piping\n42 system at the catch basin. The leak rate through the primary liner can be calculated using two methods: 1)\n43 measured as the leachate flow meter/totalizer readings (flow meters/totalizers are located on the outflow\n44 line from the collection sumps in the bottom of the LERF basins), and 2) calculated using the pump\n45 operating time readings multiplied by the pump flow rate (the pump runs at a constant flow rate).\n46 Calculations using either method are sufficient for compliance. For more information on inspections,\n47 refer to Addendum 1.\nAddendum C.42\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 The stainless steel leachate pump delivers 5 gallons per minute (19 liters per minute). The leachate pump\n2 returns draw liquid from the sump via 1.5-inch pipe and discharges into the basin through 1.5-inch high-\n3 density polyethylene pipe.\n4 C.5.7 Construction Quality Assurance\n5 The construction quality assurance plan and complete report of construction quality assurance inspection\n6 and testing results are provided in 242-A Evaporator Interim Retention Basin Construction Quality\n7 Assurance Plan (KEH 1991). A general description of construction quality assurance procedures is\n8 outlined in the following paragraphs.\n9 For excavation of the basins and construction of the dikes, regular inspections were conducted to ensure\n10 compliance with procedures and drawings, and compaction tests were performed on the dike soils.\n11 For the soil/bentonite layer, test fills were first conducted in accordance with EPA guidance to\n12 demonstrate compaction procedures and to confirm compaction and permeability requirements can be\n13 met. The ratio of bentonite to soil and moisture content was monitored; lifts did not exceed\n14 15 centimeters before compaction, and specific compaction procedures were followed. Laboratory and\n15 field tests of soil properties were performed for each lift and for the completed test fill. The same suite of\n16 tests was conducted for each lift during the laying of the soil/bentonite admixture in the basins.\n17 Geotextiles and geomembranes were laid in accordance with detailed procedures and quality assurance\n18 programs provided by the manufacturers and installers. These included destructive and nondestructive\n19 tests on the geomembrane seams, and documentation of field test results and repairs.\n20 C.5.8 Proposed Action Leakage Rate and Response Action Plan\n21 An action leakage rate limit is established where action must be taken due to excessive leakage from the\n22 primary liner. The action leak rate is based on the maximum design flow rate the leak detection system\n23 can remove without the fluid head on the bottom liner exceeding 30 centimeters. The limiting factor in\n24 the leachate removal rate is the hydraulic conductivity of the drainage gravel. An action leakage rate\n25 (also called the rapid or large leak rate) of 20,000 liters per hectare per day (2,100 gallons/acre/day) was\n26 calculated for each basin (WHC 1992b).\n27 When it is determined that the action leakage rate has been exceeded, the response action plan will follow\n28 the actions in WAC 173-303-650(1 1)(b) and (c), which includes notification of Ecology in writing\n29 within 7 days, assessing possible causes of the leak, and determining whether waste receipt should be\n30 curtailed and/or the basin emptied.\n31 C.5.9 Dike Structural Integrity Engineering Certification\n32 The structural integrity of the dikes was certified attesting to the structural integrity of the dikes, signed\n33 by a qualified, registered professional engineer.\n34 C.S.10 Management of Ignitable, Reactive, or Incompatible Wastes\n35 Although ignitable or reactive aqueous waste might be received in small quantities at LERF, such\n36 aqueous waste is mixed with dilute solutions in the basins, removing the ignitable or reactive\n37 characteristics. For compatibility requirements with the LERF liner, refer to Addendum B, Waste\n38 Analysis Plan.\n39 C.6 Air Emissions Control\n40 This section addresses the 200 Area ETF requirements of Air Emission Standards for Process Vents,\n41 under 40 CFR 264, Subpart AA (WAC 173-303-690 incorporated by reference) and Subpart CC. The\n42 requirements of 40 CFR 264, Subpart BB (WAC 173-303-691) is not applicable because aqueous waste\n43 with 10 percent or greater organic concentration would not be acceptable for processing at the ETF.\nAddendum C.43\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 C.6.1 Applicability of Subpart AA Standards\n2 The 200 Area ETF evaporator and thin film dryer perform operations that specifically require evaluation\n3 for applicability of WAC 173-303-690. Aqueous waste in these units routinely contains greater than 10\n4 parts per million concentrations of organic compounds and are, therefore, subject to air emission\n5 requirements under WAC 173-303-690. Organic emissions from all affected process vents on the\n6 Hanford Facility must be less than 1.4 kilograms per hour and 2.8 mega grams per year, or control\n7 devices must be installed to reduce organic emissions by 95 percent.\n8 The vessel off gas system provides a process vent system. This system provides a slight vacuum on the\n9 200 Area ETF process vessels and tanks (refer to Section C.2.5.2). Two vessel vent header pipes\n10 combine and enter the vessel off gas system filter unit consisting of a demister, electric heater, prefilter,\n11 high-efficiency particulate air filters, activated carbon absorber, and two exhaust fans (one fan in service\n12 while the other is backup). The vessel off gas system filter unit is located in the high-efficiency\n13 particulate air filter room west of the process area. The vessel off gas system exhaust discharges into the\n14 larger building ventilation system, with the exhaust fans and stack located outside and immediately west\n15 of the ETF. The exhaust stack discharge point is 15.5 meters above ground level.\n16 The annual average flow rate for the 200 Area ETF stack (which is the combined vessel off gas and\n17 building exhaust flow rates) is 1600 cubic meters per minute with a total annual flow of approximately\n18 8.4 E+08 cubic meters. During waste processing, the airflow through just the vessel off gas system is\n19 about 23 standard cubic meters per minute.\n20 Organic emissions occur during waste processing, which occurs less than 310 days each year\n21 (i.e., 85 percent operating efficiency). This operating efficiency represents the maximum annual\n22 operating time for the ETF, as shutdowns are required during the year for planned maintenance outages\n23 and for reconfiguring the 200 Area ETF to accommodate different aqueous waste.\n24 C.6.2 Process Vents -Demonstrating Compliance\n25 This section outlines how the 200 Area ETF complies with the requirements and includes a discussion of\n26 the basis for meeting the organic emissions limits, calculations demonstrating compliance, and conditions\n27 for reevaluation.\n28 C.6.2.1 Basis for Meeting Limits/Reductions\n29 The 242-A Evaporator and the 200 Area ETF are currently the only operating TSD units that contribute to\n30 the Hanford Facility volatile organic emissions under 40 CFR 264, Subpart AA. The combined release\n31 rate is currently well below the threshold of 1.4 kilograms per hour or 2,800 kilograms per year of volatile\n32 organic compounds. As a result, the 200 Area ETF meets these standards without the use of air pollution\n33 control devices.\n34 The amount of organic emissions could change as waste streams are changed, or TSD units are brought\n35 online or are deactivated. The organic air emissions summation will be re-evaluated periodically as\n36 condition warrants. Operations of the TSD units operating under 40 CFR 264, Subpart AA, will be\n37 controlled to maintain Hanford Facility emissions below the threshold limits or pollution control device(s)\n38 will be added, as necessary, to achieve the reduction standards specified under 40 CFR 264, Subpart AA.\n39 C.6.2.2 Demonstrating Compliance\n40 Calculations to determine organic emissions are performed using the following assumptions:\n41 * Maximum flow rate from LERF to 200 Area ETF is 568 liters per minute.\n42 * Emissions of organics from tanks and vessels upstream of the UV/OX process are determined\n43 from flow and transfer rates given in Clean Air Act Requirements, WAC 173-400 As-built\n44 Documentation, Project C-018H, 242-A Evaporator/P UREX Plant Process Condensate\n45 Treatment Facility (Adtechs 1995).\n46\nAddendum C.44\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * UV/OX reaction rate constants and residence times are used to determine the amount of organics,\n2 which are destroyed in the UV/OX process. These constants are given in 200 Area Effluent\n3 Treatment Facility Delisting Petition (DOE/RL 1992).\n4 * All organic compounds that are not destroyed in the UV/OX process are assumed to be emitted\n5 from the tanks and vessels into the vessel off gas system.\n6 * No credit for removal of organic compounds in the vessel off gas system carbon absorber unit is\n7 taken. The activated carbon absorbers are used if required to reduce organic emissions.\n8 The calculation to determine organic emissions consists of the following steps:\n9 1. Determine the quantity of organics emitted from the tanks or vessels upstream of the UV/OX\n10 process, using transfer rate values\n11 2. Determine the concentration of organics in the waste after the UV/OX process using UV/OX\n12 reaction rates and residence times. If the 200 Area ETF is configured such that the UV/OX\n13 process is not used, a residence time of zero is used in the calculations (i.e., none of the organics\n14 are destroyed)\n15 3. Assuming all the remaining organics are emitted, determine the rate which the organics are\n16 emitted using the feed flow rate and the concentrations of organics after the UV/OX process\n17 4. The amount of organics emitted from the vessel off gas system is the sum of the amount\n18 calculated in steps I and 3.\n19 The organic emission rates and quantity of organics emitted during processing are determined using these\n20 calculations and are included in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF file.\n21 C.6.2.3 Reevaluating Compliance with Subpart AA Standards\n22 Calculations to determine compliance with Subpart AA will be reviewed when any of the following\n23 conditions occur at the 200 Area ETF:\n24 * Changes in the maximum feed rate to the 200 Area ETF (i.e., greater than the 568 liters per\n25 minute flow rate)\n26 * Changes in the configuration or operation of the 200 Area ETF that would modify the\n27 assumptions given in Section C.6.2.2 (e.g., taking credit for the carbon absorbers as a control\n28 device)\n29 * Annual operating time exceeds 310 days.\n30 C.6.3 Applicability of Subpart CC Standards\n31 The air emission standards of 40 CFR 264, Subpart CC apply to tank, surface impoundment, and\n32 container storage units that manage wastes with average volatile organic concentrations equal to or\n33 exceeding 500 parts per million by weight, based on the hazardous waste composition at the point of\n34 origination (61 FR 59972). However, TSD units that are used solely for management of mixed waste are\n35 exempt. Mixed waste is managed at the LERF and 200 Area ETF and dangerous waste could be treated\n36 and stored at these TSD units.\n37 TSD owner/operators are not required to determine the concentration of volatile organic compounds in a\n38 hazardous waste if the wastes are placed in waste management units that employ air emission controls\n39 that comply with the Subpart CC standards. Therefore, the approach to Subpart CC compliance at the\n40 LERF and 200 Area ETF is to demonstrate that the LERF and 200 Area ETF meet the Subpart CC control\n41 standards (40 CFR 264.1084 -40 CFR 264.1086).\n42 C.6.3.1 Demonstrating Compliance with Subpart CC for Tanks\n43 Since the 200 Area ETF tanks already have process vents regulated under 40 CFR 264, Subpart AA\n44 (WAC 173-303-690), they are exempt from Subpart CC [40 CFR 264.1080(b)(8)].\nAddendum C.45\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI C.6.3.2 Demonstrating Compliance with Subpart CC for Containers\n2 Container Level 1 and Level 2 standards are met at the 200 Area ETF by managing all dangerous and/or\n3 mixed wastes in U.S. Department of Transportation containers [40 CFR 264.1086(f)]. Level 1 containers\n4 are those that store more than 0.1 cubic meters and less than or equal to 0.46 cubic meters. Level 2\n5 containers are used to store more than 0.46 cubic meters of waste, which are in 'light material service'.\n6 Light material service is defined where a waste in the container has one or more organic constituents\n7 with a vapor pressure greater than 0.3 kilopascals at 20 C, and the total concentration of such\n8 constituents is greater than or equal to 20 percent by weight.\n9 The monitoring requirements for Level I and Level 2 containers include a visual inspection when the\n10 container is received at the 200 Area ETF and when the waste is initially placed in the container.\n11 Additionally, at least once every 12 months when stored onsite for 1 year or more, these containers must\n12 be inspected.\n13 If compliant containers are not used at the 200 Area ETF, alternate container management practices are\n14 used that comply with the Level I standards. Specifically, the Level I standards allow for a \"container\n15 equipped with a cover and closure devices that form a continuous barrier over the container openings such\n16 that when the cover and closure devices are secured in the closed position there are no visible holes, gaps,\n17 or other open spaces into the interior of the container. The cover may be a separate cover installed on the\n18 container...or may be an integral part of the container structural design...\" [40 CFR 264.1086(c)(1)(ii)].\n19 An organic-vapor-suppressing barrier, such as foam, may also be used [40 CFR 264.1086(c)(1)(iii)].\n20 Section C.3 provides detail on container management practices at the 200 Area ETF.\n21 Container Level 3 standards apply when a container is used for the \"treatment of a hazardous waste by a\n22 waste stabilization process\" [40 CFR 264.1086(2)]. Because treatment in containers using the\n23 stabilization process is not provided at the 200 Area ETF, these standards do not apply.\n24 C.6.3.3 Demonstrating Compliance with Subpart CC for Surface Impoundments\n25 The Subpart CC emission standards are met at LERF using a floating membrane cover that is constructed\n26 of very-low-density polyethylene that forms a continuous barrier over the entire surface area\n27 [40 CFR 264.1085(c)]. This membrane has both organic permeability properties equivalent to a high-\n28 density polyethylene cover and chemical/physical properties that maintain the material integrity for the\n29 intended service life of the material. The additional requirements for the floating cover at the LERF have\n30 been met (Section C.5.2.4).\n31 C.7 Engineering Drawings\n32 C.7.1 Liquid Effluent Retention Facility\n33 Drawings of the containment systems at the LERF are summarized in Table C. 1. Because the failure of\n34 these containment systems at LERF could lead to the release of dangerous waste into the environment,\n35 modifications that affect these containment systems will be submitted to the Washington State\n36 Department of Ecology, as a Class 1, 2, or 3 Permit modification, as required by WAC 173-303-830.\n37 Table C.1.

LERF is a regulated unit under RCW 70.105, \"Hazardous Waste Management,\"\n4 and is subject to groundwater monitoring requirements pursuant to WAC 173-303-645, \"Dangerous\n5 Waste Regulations,\" \"Releases from Regulated Units.\"\n6 D1 Introduction\n7 This plan describes the LERF groundwater monitoring program, including the monitoring network,\n8 constituent list, sampling schedule, sampling and analysis protocols, and data evaluation and reporting\n9 methods for LERF groundwater monitoring. Four monitoring wells at LERF (299-E26-10, 299-E26-14,\n10 299-E26-77, and 299-E26-79) provide a monitoring network for establishing the groundwater gradient,\n11 and two monitoring wells (299-E26-14 and 299-E26-79) provide upgradient-downgradient comparisons\n12 for detection monitoring, respectively (Figure D-2).\n13 D1.1 History of Groundwater Monitoring at the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility\n14 A four-well groundwater monitoring program was established at LERF in 1990 before final construction\n15 of the regulated unit. One well (299-E26-1 1) was completed to the east of LERF as an upgradient\n16 monitoring well, and three wells (299-E26-9, 299-E26-10, and 299-E35-2) were completed west of LERF\n17 as downgradient monitoring wells. Well 299-E26-77, a replacement well for well 299-E26-9, was located\n18 approximately 5 m (15 ft) to the southeast of well 299-E26-9 and because of the scale for Figure D-2,\n19 only well 299-E26-77 is identified. Samples were collected quarterly from the four monitoring wells, and\n20 evaluation of indicator parameters began before waste was transferred to the basins. Analytes listed in\n21 Appendix III, \"EPA Interim Primary Drinking Water Standards,\" of 40 CFR 265, \"Interim Status\n22 Standards for Owners and Operators of Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities,\"\n23 Subpart F, \"Ground-Water Monitoring,\" were sampled to establish the suitability of the groundwater as a\n24 drinking water supply, as well as several other site-specific constituents the first year of sample\n25 collection. Total organic carbon (TOC), total organic halides (TOX), pH, and specific conductivity\n26 (indicator parameters) also were analyzed during the first year to derive upgradient/downgradient\n27 comparison values for these parameters based on requirements of 40 CFR 265, Subpart F. Detection\n28 monitoring continued on a semiannual schedule. Two wells, 299-E26-9 and 299-E35-2, could no longer\n29 yield representative samples of groundwater in 1999 and 2001, respectively, due to declining water levels.\n30 As a result, inter-well statistical evaluation of LERF groundwater monitoring data has not been performed\n31 since 2001. Sampling continued at former downgradient well 299-E26-10 and former upgradient well\n32 299-E26-1 1. Wells 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79 were drilled and completed in 2008 to define the aquifer\n33 flow rate, flow direction, and hydrogeologic conditions (SGW-41072, Liquid Effluent Retention Facility\n34 Characterization Report) (Figure D-2). These wells are located west and south of LERF, respectively,\n35 and were sampled concurrently with existing wells beginning in January 2009. Water level\n36 measurements, after incorporation of the two new wells, demonstrated two different flow conditions,\n37 westerly when incorporating well 299-E26-11 and more southerly when data for well 299-E26-11 are not\n38 incorporated (SGW-41072). Because of the uncertainty in flow direction, another well, 299-E26-14, was\n39 installed north of LERF to clarify current groundwater flow direction. A geophysical investigation was\n40 employed to target the best hydraulic location for well 299-E26-14 as discussed further in Section D2. 1.1\n41 (Figure D-3). In September 2011, well 299-E26-14 was installed. After two years of water level\n42 measurements using well 299-E26-14 and the three other wells (299-E26-10, 299-E26-77, and\n43 299-E26-79), the flow direction was considered southward (discussed further in Section 2.2.2). Various\n44 chemical analyses were completed over the past two years to provide an upgradient baseline for\n45 dangerous waste constituents specified in this permit.\nD-1\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 D1.2 Facility Description\n2 The following subsections provide an overview of the physical structures, operational history, and waste\n3 characteristics of LERF. Additional details are provided in Addendum B (Waste Analysis Plan) and\n4 Addendum C (Process Information).\n5 D1.3 Physical Structure\n6 LERF is located in the central portion of the Hanford Site on the eastern boundary of the 200 East Area\n7 (Figure D-1). Construction of LERF was completed in 1991. The LERF basins consist of three dangerous\n8 waste management units classified as surface impoundments: Basins 42, 43, and 44 (Figure D-2).\n9 The LERF design uses a dual confinement barrier concept (i.e., dual basin liners and pipe-in-a-pipe\n10 transfer piping system) to minimize human exposure and potential for accidental releases to the\n11 environment. A leachate detection, collection, and removal system and basin covers are designed to\n12 reduce possible environmental or personnel exposures. The leachate detection system is monitored, as\n13 required, by the LERF-Effluent Treatment Facility (ETF) permit conditions and Addendum I.\n14 LERF is a 15.8 ha (39 ac) site with three 2.9 x 107 L (7.8 million gal) capacity basins (Figure D-2).\n15 The basins are arranged side by side with 18.2 m (60 ft) separations between each basin. The dimensions\n16 of each basin (cell) are 100.5 by 82.2 m (330 by 270 ft), with a maximum fluid depth of 6.7 m (22 ft).\n17 The side slopes of the basin have a slope ratio of 3:1.\n18 The primary liner for each basin is a 60 mil, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane laid\n19 directly over a manufactured geotextile/bentonite carpet layer. The secondary liner is also a 60 mil HDPE\n20 geomembrane laid directly on 0.9 m (36 in.) of a soil/bentonite mixture. The liners are separated by a\n21 synthetic drainage geonet laid on the sides of the basins, with 0.3 m (12 in.) of drainage gravel at the\n22 bottom. The sides slope to a sump, which is pumped when the liquid level reaches approximately 28 cm\n23 (11 in.) and shuts off when it drops to 18 cm (7 in.). Each basin has a mechanically tensioned cover of\n24 very low density polyethylene construction, which is anchored to the perimeter concrete ring wall of the\n25 basins with batten plates.\n26 D1.4 Operational History\n27 LERF was constructed for interim storage and treatment for aqueous waste streams prior to final\n28 treatment in the 200 Area ETF. Treatment at LERF consists of flow and pH equalization. The flow\n29 equalization allows for several smaller waste streams that are intermittently received at the LERF basins\n30 to accumulate for continuous higher volume campaign processing at ETF. The pH equalization allows for\n31 a uniform wastewater to optimize ETF process campaigns.\n32 LERF began receiving process condensate from the 242-A Evaporator in 1994. In 1995, several new\n33 liquid waste feeds were identified for treatment at LERF. These waste streams included Environmental\n34 Restoration Disposal Facility (ERDF) leachate, purge water from groundwater monitoring, B Plant waste,\n35 and 200-UP-1 groundwater remediation. Between 2000 and 2013, the majority of the liquid waste\n36 received at LERF was associated with the following in descending order: 200-UP-1/200-ZP-1\n37 groundwater (181.4 million gal), ERDF leachate (16 million gal), process condensate from the 242-A\n38 Evaporator (7.3 million gal), Mixed Waste Burial Trenches leachate (2.9 million gal), K Basins\n39 (1.9 million gal), and purge water (1.8 million gal).\n40 Projected ETF influent waste streams for 2010 through 2028 are presented in HNF-23142, Engineering\n41 Study for the 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility Secondary Waste Treatment of Projected Future\n42 Waste Feeds.\nD-2\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 D1.5 Waste Characteristics\n2 As a unit of LERF, the 200 Area ETF was designed to treat a variety of aqueous wastes containing both\n3 chemical and radiological contaminants. This aqueous waste is collected in the three LERF basins before\n4 transfer to ETF for efficient operations. Before a liquid waste can be transferred to ETF or LERF by a\n5 waste generator, a waste profile of the subject waste must be developed. This waste profile is compared\n6 against the ETF/LERF acceptance criteria, as explained in Addendum B, \"Waste Analysis Plan.\"\n7 Waste streams that have been approved are also periodically re-evaluated for waste characteristics.\n8 The results of these periodic re-evaluations (provided in this subsection) help identify reliable chemical\n9 contaminants that can be used as or for additional indicator parameters for detection monitoring\n10 (as described in WAC 173-303-645(9)(a)). Waste characteristics for liquid effluents that have been\n11 historically stored in the three LERF basins (Basins 42, 43, and 44) are provided in the following\n12 subsections.\n13 D1.6 Basin 42\n14 Various aqueous waste streams feed Basin 42; however, the 242-A Evaporator waste stream has been the\n15 largest volume waste stream associated with Basin 42. Over the past 13 years (1999 through 2012),\n16 the liquid volume associated with the 242-A Evaporator waste was 10 times that of any other waste\n17 streams sent to Basin 42. Maximum concentration limits for the 242-A Evaporator waste stream during\n18 initial startup were provided in WHC-SD-W105-SAR-001, Final Safety Analysis Report 242-A\n19 Evaporator Liquid Effluent Retention Facility. When the maximum concentrations for the 242-A\n20 Evaporator waste stream (Table 9.6 of WHC-SD-W105-SAR-001) were compared with the average\n21 contaminant concentration levels (2009 through 2010 weighted average liquid concentrations) in Basin 42\n22 (Table D-1), nearly all of the average Basin 42 concentrations were lower. Constituents with greater\n23 concentrations were limited to two anions (chloride and sulfate), one cation (calcium), and four trace\n24 metals (barium, manganese, uranium, and zinc). These constituents appear to be associated with other\n25 waste streams such as the Mixed Waste Trenches 31 and 34 leachate and Hanford Site purge water which\n26 had the second and third largest waste streams by volume. The other 17 waste streams associated with\n27 Basin 42 make up approximately 2 percent of the volume.\n28 The makeup of Basin 42 is similar to the groundwater wells upgradient of the Hanford Site or regional\n29 background groundwater concentrations, except for alkalinity, nitrogen, and sulfate. A comparison\n30 between Basin 42 wastewater and upgradient Hanford Site wells can be seen in the appropriate Table D-1\n31 columns (e.g., 2009 Basin 42 Characterization Results and Basin 42 Average versus Regional\n32 Background Concentration of Table D-1). In general, regional groundwater background concentrations\n33 are similar to groundwater concentrations beneath LERF, except for anions. Although Basin 42 and\n34 groundwater beneath Basin 42 share a common suite of elevated constituents (anions), the source of the\n35 elevated anions in the groundwater is from a crossgradient/upgradient groundwater location.\n36 The crossgradient/upgradient groundwater location is shown by historical groundwater results at well\n37 299-E34-7 prior to the start of LERF and more recently at the LERF upgradient well 299-E27-14\n38 (Figure D-4). By comparison, the average concentrationi of sulfate in Basin 42 (55.6 mg/L) is much less\n39 than the historical sulfate concentration at well 299-E34-7 of 671 mg/L (sample date 4/3/2003).\n40 Even characterization results from Basins 42, 43, and 44 (Tables D-1, D-2, and D-3) do not compare with\n41 the maximum groundwater results at well 299-E34-7. The same is true for nitrate in Basin 42 as compared\n42 with nitrate at the crossgradient/upgradient well 299-E34-7. Only the contributions of the 200-BP-5\n43 perched water waste streams from Basin 43 and ERDF leachate exceed the groundwater results at well\n44 299-E34-7. However, because of the nature of the elevated groundwater results at well 299-E34-7,\n45 including elevated TOC, and the relationship to past unplanned releases (UPRs) near well 299-E34-7\n1 All concentrations are reported as a weighted average.\nD-3\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 (e.g., UPR-200-E-32 associated with the 216-B-2-1 Ditch and UPR-200-E-138 associated with the\n2 216-B-2-2 Ditch [Figure D-1]), the elevated groundwater results at well 299-E34-7 appear to be from a\n3 source other than LERF (Figure D-5). The UPRs (e.g., UPR-200-E-32 and UPR-200-E-138) were\n4 associated with B Plant fractionation waste that had significant levels of nitrate, sulfate, and organic\n5 carbon. The nature of these UPRs appears more characteristic of the levels reported at well 299-E34-7.\n6 Well 299-E26-10, located to the west of LERF, appears to mimic the historical results at well 299-E34-7\n7 (Figure D-4). As the nitrate and sulfate concentrations decrease over time, if concentrations follow the\n8 earlier trends at well 299-E34-7, these constituents may become more appropriate as indicator parameters\n9 at LERF. However, the concentration of these constituents in LERF Basins would not be distinguishable\n10 from current groundwater conditions beneath LERF. Because nitrate and sulfate may become more\n11 appropriate indicator parameters in the future, they will serve currently as groundwater quality parameters\n12 at the LERF monitoring wells. Because specific conductance is an indicator of nitrate and sulfate changes,\n13 specific conductance will be added as an indicator parameter for documentation of local changes and\n14 comparison between the upgradient and downgradient monitoring wells.\n15 None of the toxicity characteristic of dangerous waste constituents received by Basin 42 exceed toxicity\n16 characteristics list threshold values (WAC 173-303-090(8)(c), \"Dangerous Waste Regulations,\"\n17 \"Dangerous Waste Characteristics\"). Six of the potentially dangerous waste metal constituent results in\n18 the basin were above groundwater background levels (Table D-1): chromium, copper, lead, mercury,\n19 nickel, and thallium. Although the results are above the groundwater background levels, the results would\n20 not be detectable at groundwater compliance points should there be a potential release into the upper\n21 aquifer because of the low waste stream concentrations and dispersive effect associated with infiltrating\n22 waste into the groundwater.\n23 There were low levels of organics found in Basin 42 with 1-butanol (288 jtg/L) having the highest\n24 weighted average. The chemical nature of 1-butanol (e.g., rapidly degrades in water and has a relatively\n25 high detection level 100 gg/L) makes this constituent an unlikely indicator parameter.\n26 In conclusion, no reliable waste constituent indicator parameters are presently available for Basin 42\n27 groundwater detection.\n28 D1.7 Basin 43\n29 The largest volume of waste waters received by Basin 43 was the contaminated groundwater from the\n30 200-UP-1/200-ZP-1 operable units (OUs) groundwater pumping systems (Table D-2).\n31 The 200-UP-1/200-ZP-1 OUs waste stream had 20 times more volume sent to LERF than the next closest\n32 waste stream (ERDF leachate) over the past decade and a half. The 200-UP-1/200-ZP-1 OUs groundwater\n33 effluent waste characteristics are contained in Table D-2. Tables D-2 and D-3 provides characteristics of\n34 the ERDF leachate. Table D-2 provides characteristics of ERDF leachate in Basin 43 in 2012 after receipt\n35 of the 200-UP-1/200-ZP-1 OUs groundwater effluent waste was terminated, and Table D-3 provides the\n36 average ERDF leachate characterization results for Basin 44 from 2000 through September 2011. Overall,\n37 the waste characteristics in Basin 43 are most comparable to the waste streams from 200-UP-1/200-ZP- 1\n38 OUs groundwater pumping systems because of its significant volume compared with the other waste\n39 streams.\n40 The 200-UP-1/200-ZP-1 OUs waste streams have a makeup similar to the groundwater well results near\n41 sources of B Plant liquid effluent disposal sites. These sites received and disposed of metal waste,\n42 uranium recovery waste, and cesium and strontium scavenging waste which have infiltrated into the\n43 aquifer. The highest ionic results are associated with nitrogen. The Basin 43 weighted average\n44 concentration was 101 mg/L (nitrogen in nitrate) compared to 10 mg/L in the groundwater beneath LERF.\n45 Some of the other waste streams (e.g., ERDF leachate and 200-BP-5 perched water) received at Basin 43\nD-4\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 also exceeded regional background groundwater results for chloride, nitrogen, and sulfate, with\n2 concentrations as great as 224 mg/L, 220 mg/L, and 597 mg/L, respectively (Table D-2). However, these\n3 constituents are not likely to be distinguishable from current groundwater conditions beneath LERF,\n4 mainly because of the concentration of these constituents in the groundwater at crossgradient/upgradient\n5 locations to LERF, as discussed in Section D1.5.1. As also discussed in Section D1.5.1, as the\n6 groundwater concentrations from the crossgradient/upgradient direction decrease, these constituents may\n7 become more appropriate as indicator parameters at LERF. Because nitrate and sulfate may become more\n8 appropriate indicator parameters in time, they will serve currently as groundwater quality parameters at\n9 LERF monitoring wells. Because specific conductance is an indicator of nitrate and sulfate changes,\n10 specific conductance will be added as an indicator parameter for documentation of the expected local\n11 changes and comparison between the upgradient and downgradient monitoring wells.\n12 None of the toxicity characteristic dangerous waste constituents received by Basin 43 exceed the toxicity\n13 characteristics list threshold values (WAC 173-303-090(8)(c)). However, several of the potentially\n14 dangerous waste metal constituent results for the basin were above groundwater background levels.\n15 Even so, the results appear too low to determine should a potential release reach the aquifer because of\n16 the scattering effect associated with infiltrating liquid waste effluents through the vadose zone into the\n17 groundwater. However, it may be possible to differentiate hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)).\n18 This constituent will need to be monitored semiannually for two years to develop a local background\n19 basis before potentially adding it as an indicator parameter. Total chromium is not a reliable indicator\n20 parameter because of the potential concentrations associated with casing corrosion.\n21 Of the 49 volatile and semivolatile constituents, analyzed at various frequencies from 2008 to 2011 for\n22 liquid wastes sent to Basin 43, only 3 (carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and trichloroethene) were\n23 detectable. The most significant constituent was carbon tetrachloride, with concentrations ranging\n24 between 190 and 800 gg/L. The other two constituents had concentrations less than 10 gg/L. Since carbon\n25 tetrachloride is not normally occurring in the groundwater, it should be an excellent indicator parameter.\n26 TOC ranged between 0.3 and 2.45 mg/L for liquid waste in Basin 43. The concentrations do not appear to\n27 be significant enough to differentiate a groundwater quality impact should a release occur. TOC analyses\n28 are subject to a wide range of variability and can lead to a false positive error. A more valid indicator of\n29 carbon tetrachloride is TOX (Figures D-6 and D-7). Although not analyzed for in Table D-2, this\n30 indicator parameter has a lower level of detection than TOC, and, as shown in Figures D-6 and D-7,\n31 mimics the carbon tetrachloride level better than TOC. Thus, detection of both indicators (carbon\n32 tetrachloride and TOX) would be conclusive of a dangerous waste constituent impact. As a result, TOX\n33 and carbon tetrachloride will be added as indicator parameters for the LERF monitoring network.\n34 D1.8 Basin 44\n35 Basin 44 has received liquid waste dominated by ERDF leachate (7 million gal or 60 percent by volume).\n36 Other liquid waste streams include K Basin waste (1.9 million gal or 16 percent by volume), leachate\n37 from double-lined burial trenches, Mixed Waste Trenches 31 and 34 located in the 218-W-5 Burial\n38 Ground (1.2 million gal or 10 percent by volume), and purge water from well development (1.1 million\n39 gal or 10 percent by volume). The purge water and Mixed Waste Trenches 31 and 34 waste streams are\n40 lower in all constituents as compared with ERDF leachate. Therefore, waste in Basin 44 is most similar to\n41 the ERDF leachate because of volume and concentration.\n42 ERDF waste streams are similar to groundwater well results downgradient from B Plant liquid effluent\n43 disposal sites. The most comparable results are associated with chloride, nitrate, and sulfate. The average\n44 concentrations were 250 mg/L, 327 mg/L, and 474 mg/L, respectively (Table D-3). However, these\n45 constituents are not likely to be distinguishable from current groundwater conditions beneath LERF,\n46 mainly because the concentration of these constituents are already present in the groundwater at similar\nD-5\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 concentrations both crossgradient and upgradient of LERF, as discussed in Section D1.5.1. As also\n2 discussed in Section DI .5.1, as the groundwater concentrations from the crossgradient/upgradient\n3 direction decrease, these constituents may become more appropriate as indicator parameters at LERF.\n4 Because nitrate and sulfate may become more appropriate indicator parameters in time they will serve\n5 currently as groundwater quality parameters at the LERF monitoring wells. Because specific conductance\n6 is an indicator of nitrate and sulfate changes, specific conductance will be added as an indicator parameter\n7 for documentation of the expected local changes and comparison between the upgradient and\n8 downgradient monitoring wells.\n9 None of the toxicity characteristic dangerous waste constituents received by LERF exceed the toxicity\n10 characteristics list threshold values (WAC 173-303-090(8)(c)). Several of the potentially dangerous waste\n11 metal constituents received at LERF were above groundwater background levels (Table D-3).\n12 Nevertheless, the results would not show a measurable difference should a potential release to the aquifer\n13 occur because of the low waste stream concentrations and the scattering effect associated with infiltrating\n14 of liquid waste effluents through the vadose zone into the groundwater.\n15 The organic chemical analytical results associated with Basin 44 were at very low levels (<5 jtg/L) and\n16 were only periodically detected. Therefore, the ability to detect a potential release in the aquifer for\n17 organic chemicals is not practicable for the same reason as discussed for the metals and anions.\n18 TOC averaged 13.2 mg/L in Basin 44. TOC concentrations seem to be correlated with the elevated oil and\n19 grease results. Because oil and grease are viscous, TOC does not appear to be a good indicator parameter.\n20 The concentrations do not appear significant enough to be detectable in groundwater should a release\n21 occur. As noted previously, TOC analyses are subject to a wide range of variability and can potentially\n22 lead to a false positive error.\n23 In conclusion, no reliable waste constituent indicator parameters are presently available for Basin 44\n24 groundwater detection.\n25 D1.9 Potential Contaminate Indicator Parameters in Groundwater\n26 Based on the projected LERF influent waste streams and concentration levels from 2010 through 2028 as\n27 presented in HNF-23142, there does not appear a significant change in waste streams expected. Thus, the\n28 indicator parameters identified above appear to be sufficient for future detection monitoring at LERF.\n29 From review of the waste stream characterization data for Basins 42, 43, and 44, one additional indicator\n30 parameter (carbon tetrachloride) has been identified as a reliable indication of the presence of a potential\n31 dangerous waste constituent release into the groundwater. Another potential indicator parameter may be\n32 Cr(VI), based on local background results collected during 2014 through 2016.\n33 D2 Hydrogeology and Groundwater-Chemistry\n34 This section describes the geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater chemistry beneath the LERF area.\n35 To date, seven wells have been installed for monitoring the groundwater quality beneath the LERF basins.\n36 Table D-4 provides the well attributes for reference when reviewing this section.\n37 D2.1 Geology\n38 The geology near LERF consists of Columbia River Basalt overlain by a series of sedimentary units of\n39 the Ringold Formation and Hanford formation. The interpretations are based on information from the\n40 following sources:\n41 * Miocene- to Pliocene-Aged Suprabasalt Sediments of the Hanford Site, South-Central Washington\n42 (BHI-00184)\nD-6\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\nI * Revised Hydrogeology for the Suprabasalt Aquifer System, 200-East Area and Vicinity, Hanford Site,\n2 Washington (PNNL-12261)\n3 * Hydrogeologic Model for the Gable Gap Area, Hanford Site (PNNL-1 9702)\n4 * Borehole Summary Report for the Installation ofRCRA Wells 299-E26- 77 (C6455), 299-E26- 79\n5 (C6826), 299-E25-236 (C6542) and 199-N-1 65 (C6693), FY 2008 (SGW-3 9344)\n6 * Liquid Effluent Retention Facility Characterization Report (SGW-41072)\n7 * Landstreamer/Gimbaled GeoPhone Acquisition of High Resolution Seismic Reflection Data North of\n8 the 200 Area -Hanford Site (SGW-43746)\n9 * Borehole Summary Report for the Installation of Two RCRA Groundwater Monitoring Wells in the\n10 200 Areas, FY2011 (SGW-51467)\n11 * Seismic Reflection Investigation at the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility, 200 East Area, Hanford\n12 Site Richland, Washington (SGW-52162)\n13 * Integrated Surface Geophysical Investigation Results at Liquid Effluent Retention Facility, 200 East\n14 Area, Hanford, Washington (SGW-52467)\n15 * Site Characterization Report for the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (WHC-SD-EN-EV-024)\n16 * Borehole Completion Data Package for the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (WHC-MR-0235)\n17 LERF lies in the Pasco Basin, between the axis of the Umtanum-Gable Mountain anticlinal ridge and the\n18 axis of the Cold Creek syncline. The terrain surrounding the LERF basins is flat to slightly undulating,\n19 and the average elevation is approximately 182 to 184 m (597 to 604 ft) above mean sea level.\n20 The stratigraphy beneath LERF was interpreted from geologic observations during the drilling of seven\n21 boreholes, select analyses of sediment samples, aquifer tests, and geophysical investigations over the past\n22 two decades. The three principal stratigraphic units present near LERF, in ascending order, are the\n23 Elephant Mountain Member of the Saddle Mountains Basalt (EMB), the Ringold Formation, and the\n24 Hanford formation. The thickness of the suprabasalt sediments near the LERF basins ranges from 60 to\n25 69 m (198 to 225 ft).\n26 D2.1.1 Elephant Mountain Member\n27 The nature and extent of the EMB, one of the youngest members of the Saddle Mountains Basalt and the\n28 uppermost basalt in this area, is based on result of observations and documentation of archive samples\n29 collected during drilling, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis, seismic analyses, and hydraulic tests\n30 performed within the upper basalt flow top. The EMB in this area was characterized in\n31 WHC-SD-EN-EV-024 as consisting of only the oldest EMB flow (Elephant Mountain I). This flow is\n32 generally continuous throughout the area, with a thickness ranging from approximately 12 m (39 ft)\n33 where partially eroded, to greater than 35.1 m (115 ft) north of the 200 East Area. The EMB I flow\n34 contains three intraflow structures: colonnade, entablature, and flow top. The colonnade makes up the\n35 bottom third of the flow. The upper part of the colonnade grades from moderate- to well-developed\n36 columns into a platy cross-fractured colonnade and then into a hackly entablature. The entablature has\n37 numerous, irregular cross-fractures, vertical fractures, and small scattered vesicles near its top. The flow\n38 top is characterized by abundant vesicles and is brecciated and/or palagonitic (WHC-SD-EN-EV-024).\n39 Observations during drilling near the LERF basins, when initially encountering the EMB surface, were\n40 described in WHC-MR-0235 as reddish weathered basalt with vesicles partially filled, except in\nD-7\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 wells 299-E26-9 and 299-E26-10, located to the west. However, well 299-E26-77, located next to\n2 well 299-E26-9, was reported with heavy weathering and the presences of vesicles (SGW-41072).\n3 The drilling rate was moderate through the upper EMB to a depth of 2 to 3 m (6.5 to 9.8 ft) when drilling\n4 wells 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79, respectively (SGW-39344). It was concluded in SGW-41072 that\n5 hydraulic communication of the uppermost aquifer (e.g., unconfined) extends from the suprabasalt\n6 sediments into the basalt, at least in the western half of LERF, because there was no impediment\n7 associated with the overlying Hanford formation sediments. The thickness of the flow top was interpreted\n8 to range from 2 m (6.5 ft) at well 299-E26-77 (west of LERF) to 3.2 m (10.5 ft) at well 299-E26-79\n9 (south of LERF), and 1.5 m (5 ft) at well 299-E26-11 (east of LERF).\n10 The EMB surface expression in the immediate vicinity of the LERF basins forms a depression centered at\n11 the newest well 299-E26-14 (Figure D-3). The contours presented in Figure D-3 are based on a\n12 combination of basalt contact during drilling and various geophysical investigations (e.g., seismic\n13 reflection and refraction, electrical resistivity, and time-domain electromagnetic sounding). Seismic\n14 results to the east and west of well 299-E26-14 portray limited aquifer conditions above the basalt\n15 (Figure D-8). Paleochannels are interpreted to the north and northwest of well 299-E26-14 and continued\n16 to the south-southeast, as displayed in Figures D-3 and D-9. Seismic reflection results suggest an even\n17 deeper depression to the east of well 299-E26-79, centered almost directly south of Basin 43, with as\n18 much as 8 m (26 ft) of aquifer thickness (Figure D-10, black line in figure provides the interpreted top of\n19 basalt). Continuing east of this depression to the south of LERF, the basalt surface is interpreted to rise to\n20 the current water table level. The apparent contact with the water table is estimated to be just south of the\n21 west boundary of Basin 44. Further east, the basalt is interpreted to plateau beyond well 299-E26-1 1. West\n22 of well 299-E26-79, the basalt surface is interpreted to increase in elevation linearly to the elevation of\n23 121.3 m (398 ft) at well 299-E26-10. Finally, Figure D-1 1 provides an angle view of the well casing\n24 extensions from ground surface to basalt in the LERF area and to the west/northwest, including remnant\n25 Ringold Unit A sediments and groundwater extent above basalt. The depiction of the groundwater implies\n26 flow through the basalt flow top as discussed further in Section D2.2. Figure D-12 provides an\n27 interpretation of the basalt surface and Ringold sediments without the groundwater overlay.\n28 D2.1.2 Ringold Formation\n29 The Ringold Formation represents ancient fluvial and lacustrine deposits associated with the ancestral\n30 Columbia River, and the formation exhibits consolidation and weathering. Where present, this Formation\n31 overlies the EMB (Figure D-12). According to WHC-SD-EN-EV-024, remnant muds associated with the\n32 Ringold period exist to the east and northwest of the LERF site at wells 299-E26-1 1 and 299-E35-2,\n33 respectively. 200 East Groundwater Aggregate Area Management Study Report (DOE/RL-92-19)\n34 reported approximately 2.74 m (9 ft) of the Ringold Lower Mud Unit in well 299-E26-11 and mapped the\n35 Lower Mud Unit extending to this location from the east. BHI-00 184 identified the Ringold muds east of\n36 the 200 East Area as paleosol-overbank deposits. WHC-SD-EN-EV-024 concluded that the sediment\n37 layer was a paleosol based on XRF analysis. BHI-00 184 states that pedogenically altered silt- and\n38 clay-rich overbank-paleosol (facies association III) deposits of the Ringold Formation are easily\n39 distinguished from the basalt-rich sand and gravel of the Hanford formation. In 2000, PNNL-12261\n40 defined the sediments near well 299-E26-11 hydraulically as the Ringold Formation Unit A and, more\n41 specifically, the hydrogeologic unit 9C (Figure D-12).\n42 The Ringold sediment at well 299-E26-1 1, as described in WHC-MR-0235, consists of a slightly gravelly\n43 sandy mud (5 percent gravel, 30 percent sand, and 65 percent mud). The color was reported as very dark\n44 grayish brown (1OYR3/2). The gravel content was described as 90 percent mafic, and the sand content\n45 was 50 percent mafic. The sediments had no reaction to hydrochloric acid.\nD-8\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 During drilling of the new well 299-E26-14, low permeability sediments were encountered at 65.5 to 66.1 m\n2 (215.5 to 217 ft) below ground surface (bgs). The sediments were described as 95 percent silt and 5 percent\n3 gravel. Photographic review of this sediment layer, presented in SGW-51467, showed a distinct texture\n4 and color change from the overlying Hanford sandy gravels. The reddish brown hue and yellow tints\n5 associated with this layer correlate well with the distal overbank description provided in BHI-00 184.\n6 Other characteristics associated with this layer included no reaction to hydrochloric, similar to Ringold\n7 sediments described at well 299-E26-1 1. An alternative explanation may be that the apparent Ringold\n8 sediments are rework, removed from one location and deposited at this location, possibly associated with\n9 cataclysmic glacial fluvial floods.\n10 Most of the area beneath LERF is considered devoid of Ringold sediments because of the high energy\n11 scouring associated glacial fluvial flooding in the Pleistocene and the lack of reflectors in the suprabasalt\n12 section during 2011 seismic data reviews. PNNL-19702 presents a conceptual model of various\n13 paleochannels originating to the northwest (Figure D-9). Some of these paleochannels may have been\n14 formed during Ringold times, and isolated remnants of Ringold sediments are sometimes found within\n15 these older paleochannels.\n16 D2.1.3 Hanford Formation\n17 The Hanford formation near LERF ranges in thickness from approximately 59 to 66 m (193 to 215 ft) or\n18 more (Figures D-13 and D-14). The texture of the Hanford formation is loose to weakly cemented, sandy,\n19 pebble-cobble gravels to gravelly sand, with occasional layers of sand and/or muddy sand. Regionally, the\n20 Hanford formation is subdivided into an upper gravel sequence (HI), a sandy sequence (H2), and a lower\n21 gravel sequence (H3). The sandy sequence is present locally and, where it is missing, a single sequence of\n22 gravel-dominated facies exists, which is undifferentiated in cross-sections.\n23 LERF is located along the southern flank of a major west-northwest/east-southeast trending cataclysmic\n24 flood channel. Because of multiple flood events and the turbulence and extremely high energy associated\n25 with these floods, it is difficult to correlate individual strata within flood sequences. In outcrops of the\n26 Hanford formation elsewhere in the Pasco Basin, for example, it is common to see changes from\n27 gravel-dominated sediments to sand and silt-dominated sediments over a distance of a few tens of meters.\n28 In general, more silt or mud was present to the west and east than north or south of the LERF basins\n29 based on geologic logs for the seven wells drilled within the LERF vicinity. However, high silt and clay\n30 content to the north and south of LERF is present near the contact with the EMB within the aquifer.\n31 These silt and clay layers ranged in thickness between 0.3 to 1.5 m (1 to 5 ft) and appear to be of Ringold\n32 age as discussed in D.2.1.2. The basalt content in layers above the silt and clay indicates Hanford origin.\n33 Above these initial layers, the gravel content was generally about 60 percent, consisting of 40 to 70\n34 percent mafics. Significantly more cobbles were described in the north and south boreholes than to the\n35 east and west throughout the borehole log descriptions. The grayish brown to very dark grayish brown\n36 color description of the sediments was consistent throughout the area. Calcium carbonate levels are low to\n37 within 21 m (70 ft) of ground surface, based on little to no reaction to hydrochloric acid. The upper zone\n38 with increased calcium carbonate levels correlates with low modeled velocities during refraction and\n39 resistivity modeling, as stated in SGW-52467, and may be a distinctive feature to differentiate the H1 and\n40 H3 in this area. Moisture observations ranged from dry to wet; however, the damp and wet descriptions in\n41 the vadose zone pertained to zones where water was added during drilling. In conclusion, based on the\n42 larger gravel content and size to the north and south of the LERF basins, the dominant flow during\n43 deposition appears to be from the northwest, aligning with the conceptual model in PNNL-19702\n44 (Figure D-9). In addition, there were no significant zones of silt or clay above the aquifer indicating no\n45 perching horizons in the suprabasalt sediments beneath the LERF vicinity.\nD-9\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 D2.2 Groundwater Hydrology\n2 The vadose zone beneath LERF consists of the Hanford formation and portions of the EMB above the\n3 water table, as well as potentially some of the Ringold Formation near well 299-E26-1 1. There have been\n4 no observations indicating perched water table conditions near the LERF basins; however, perched\n5 conditions could be present west and northwest of the westernmost LERF monitoring wells.\n6 The uppermost aquifer directly beneath LERF is thin to moderate in thickness (e.g., ranging from\n7 possibly not present to greater than 8 m (26.25 ft) and exists in the Hanford and EMB flow top\n8 (Figures D-13 and D-14). This aquifer is unconfined, except to the east where barometric analyses within\n9 well 299-E26-1 1 indicate semiconfined conditions. This is consistent with the rise in groundwater elevation\n10 when drilling advanced through the lower Ringold sediments, present at this well, causing the groundwater\n11 elevation to rise nearly 3.1 m (10 ft) in the temporary casing (WHC-MR-0235). The westward extent of\n12 the Ringold sediments is uncertain; however, it has been portrayed to pinch out west of well 299-E26-11\n13 (Figure D-12). Although well 299-E26-11 is still capable of yielding representative samples from the\n14 same hydrostratigraphic unit as the other LERF wells, the chemical nature of the samples is different and\n15 has been more characteristic of groundwater to the east of LERF.\n16 Well construction details are discussed in Section D2.4 and presented in Table D-4. To date, seven wells\n17 have been installed for detection monitoring since 1990. Three of the wells (299-E26-11, 299-E26-77,\n18 and 299-E26-79) were screened either entirely or primarily within the EMB flow top. The wells produce\n19 at a minimum 22.7 L/min (6 gal/min), which is sufficient for groundwater sampling, and the flow top is\n20 sufficiently permeable for adequate hydraulic connection with the overlying sediments.\n21 Basalt flow top fracturing, brecciation, and/or weathering provide localized zones of higher permeability.\n22 Where these conditions exist and are in hydraulic communication with overlying saturated sediments, the\n23 basalt flow top is part of the overlying unconfined aquifer system. Based on evaluations of drill cuttings,\n24 drilling rates, and water production noted during drilling wells 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79, the EMB\n25 flow top functions as a component of the unconfined aquifer and forms a laterally continuous aquifer\n26 beneath LERF.\n27 The uppermost aquifer is thickest north of Basin 42 and appears to thicken south of Basin 43\n28 (Figures D-8, D-10, D-13, and D-14) due to paleochannel development. The flow interior of the EMB\n29 represents the lower boundary of the uppermost aquifer. This was verified by observations during drilling\n30 at wells 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79, as discussed in Section D2. 1.1.\n31 D2.2.1 Aquifer Properties\n32 Hydraulic tests were conducted in 1990, 2003, 2008, and 2011 to derive representative hydraulic\n33 parameters for the various saturated formations beneath the LERF general vicinity. Slug tests were\n34 completed for each of the seven wells with a derived hydraulic conductivity value. The 1990 slug tests\n35 were completed in wells 299-E26-9, 299-E26-10, 299-E26-1 1, and 299-E35-2, which were constructed\n36 with a 10.2 cm (4 in.) diameter wire wrapped screen and 0.25 mm (0.0 10 in.) slot width. A 20-40 silica\n37 sand filter pack encases the screen interval. The following paragraphs summarize the results for each\n38 well, and WHC-SD-EN-EV-024 provides further detailed discussion. The 2003 hydraulic tests were\n39 completed at wells 299-E26-10 and 299-E26-1 1 and consisted of slug tests at each well and the following\n40 additional tests at well 299-E26-1 0: tracer test, tracer-pumpback test, and constant-rate pumping test.\n41 This subsection summarizes the results for each well, and PNNL- 14804, Results ofDetailed Hydrologic\n42 Characterization Tests Fiscal Year 2003, provides further discussion. The 2008 hydraulic slug tests were\n43 completed at wells 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79, constructed with a 10.2 cm (4 in.) diameter wire\n44 wrapped screens and 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) slot width. A 10-20 silica sand filter pack encases the screen\n45 interval. A slug test at well 299-E26-1 1 also was included in 2008. This subsection summarizes the 2008\nD-1 0\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART Ill, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 results for each well, and SGW-41072 provides further discussion. Finally, a 2011 constant rate pumping\n2 test was completed at well 299-E26-14, which was constructed with 10.2 cm (4 in.) diameter wire wrapped\n3 screens and 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) slot width. A 10-20 silica sand filter pack encases the screen interval.\n4 Because several of the well screens cross various formations, a summary of the screen interval is provided\n5 in the following text and in Table D-4. When heterogeneous conditions exist, the hydraulic results are an\n6 arithmetic average of the individual formational layers based on a weighted-thickness (PNNL-14804).\n7 Well 299-E26-9 (now sample dry) was screened only in the Hanford formation. The 1990 slug test\n8 derived transmissivity values for well 299-E26-9 ranged from 11 to 230 m2/day (118 to 2,476 ft2/day).\n9 The derived hydraulic conductivity ranged between approximately 6 to 120 m/day (20 to 394 ft/day),\n10 assuming an aquifer thickness of 2 m (6.6 ft).\n11 Well 299-E26-10 is screened primarily across the Hanford formation with a small section across the EMB\n12 flow top (0.5 m [1.6 ft]). Transmissivity values for well 299-E26-10 were not derived for the 1990 tests\n13 because of the fast recovery response (e.g., less than 3 seconds). In 2003, four hydraulic slug tests, two\n14 low and two high stress, were performed at well 299-E26-10. The results produced a hydraulic\n15 conductivity range, based on the Kansas Geological Survey (KGS) type-curve method, of 36.7 to\n16 42.8 m/day for both stress-level tests (KGS, 1991, Seismic-Reflection Processing Demonstration Using\n17 Eavesdropper). The KGS type-curve method was used to derive the hydraulic conductivity as explained\n18 in PNNL-14804. The 2003 screened thickness across the saturated Hanford formation was 1.48 m\n19 (4.85 ft). Four additional hydraulic tests were completed at this well in 2003. The tracer-dilution test\n20 provided qualitative evidence that the overlying Hanford formation sediments had a considerably higher\n21 hydraulic conductivity than the EMB flow top. The tracer-pumpback test was used to derive the effective\n22 porosity; however, due to test complexities, the calculation did not appear representative of the aquifer\n23 conditions. The constant-rate pumping test provided another means of deriving the hydraulic\n24 conductivity, which was reported at 36.2 m/d with a transmissivity of 71.6 m2/day. Based on the\n25 consistency of the 2003 results, the hydraulic conductivity ranges between 36.2 and 42.8 m/day.\n26 Well 299-E26-11 is screened only across the EMB flow top. The 1990-derived transmissivity value for\n27 well 299-E26-l 1 was 6.1 m2/d (20 ft2/d) with a hydraulic conductivity of 11.2 m/day (120 ft/day).\n28 Five additional hydraulic slug tests were completed at well 299-E26-11 in 2003, which derived a range of\n29 hydraulic conductivity values from 5.85 to 6.8 m/day. Four additional slug tests were performed in 2008\n30 producing a reported hydraulic conductivity value of 10 m/day. The hydraulic conductivity values for the\n31 three times range from 5.85 to 11.2 m/day. Because of the analysis methods used by PNNL-14804, the\n32 most representative value appears to be 6.3 m/day.\n33 Well 299-E26-14 was completed in 2011 with 5.5 m (18 ft) of screen across the Ringold and Hanford\n34 sediments. Only a small portion (0.27 m or 0.9 ft) of the Ringold sediments are adjacent to the bottom of\n35 the well screen. A 27.3 gal/min constant pump test was completed on November 26, 2011. A transducer\n36 was installed to collect changing water table elevations during the 75 minute pumping test. In total, 2,048\n37 gal were pumped during the test, as described in the field activity log. Because no hydraulic parameters\n38 were calculated from the field activity records, type-curve matching methods were used to derive\n39 transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity results for this well. The computer program AQTESOLV was\n40 used for curve matching. AQTESOLV uses a nonlinear least squares procedure to match a type-curve or\n41 straight-line solution for the data provided. Through a sequence of iterations, the procedure systematically\n42 adjusts the values of hydraulic properties to achieve the best statistical match between a solution\n43 (type-curve) and the test data. Each iteration seeks to minimize the sum of squared residuals.\n44 AQTESOLV provides five different solution methods for unconfined aquifer pumping tests. Initially, the\n45 Theis and Cooper-Jacob methods were evaluated against the field data, but the curve matching associated\n46 with these solution methods did not align (Theis, 1935, \"The Relation Between the Lowering of the\nD-11\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 Piezometric Surface and the Rate and Duration of Discharge of a Well Using Ground-Water Storage;\"\n2 Cooper and Jacob, 1946, \"A Generalized Graphical Method of Evaluating Formation Constants and\n3 Summarizing Well-Field History\"). The Moench method provides independent parameters for wellbore\n4 storage, wellbore skin, and delayed gravity response in anisotropic unconfined aquifers (Moench, 1997,\n5 \"Flow to a well of finite diameter in a homogeneous, anisotropic water table aquifer\"). After manual\n6 manipulation of the independent parameter for the wellbore skin factor and delayed drainage parameter,\n7 the Moench derived curve nearly matched the field results as provided in Figure D-15. The derived\n8 hydraulic conductivity from this curve matching solution was 27.3 m/d. Another solution method,\n9 Neuman, with less independent parameters for manipulation, produced the type-curve in Figure D- 16\n10 (Neuman, 1974, \"Effect of Partial Penetration on Flow in Unconfined Aquifers Considering Delayed\n11 Gravity Response\"). The derived hydraulic conductivity from this curve matching solution was 24.4\n12 m/day. These results agree with the slug results derived for the other wells in the LERF vicinity. The best\n13 estimate is considered 27.3 m/day.\n14 Well 299-E26-77 was completed in 2008 with 6.1 m (20.1 ft) of screen across the EMB flow top and\n15 0.71 m (2.3 ft) across the overlying silty sandy gravel Hanford formation. The 2008 derived hydraulic\n16 conductivity was reported in SGW-41072 at several tens of meters/day. Because there were no specific\n17 values presented in this report, the data from the two slug withdraw tests were retrieved and reanalyzed\n18 with type-curve methods, as discussed in PNNL-14804. Briefly, the type-curve method is useful for\n19 analyzing unconfined aquifer conditions because it uses all or any part of the slug test response.\n20 The computer program AQTESOLV was used for curve matching, as discussed previously.\n21 The automated matching option with default setting was applied to the KGS Model, KGS model with skin\n22 effects, and the Springer-Gelhar inertial effects method (Water-Resources Investigation Report 91-4034,\n23 U.S. Geological Survey Toxic Substances Hydrology Program-Proceedings of the technical meeting,\n24 Monterey, California, March 11-15, 1991). The most comparable slug test derived curve was the\n25 Springer-Gelhar eritically dampened method. This method nearly matched the second slug withdraw\n26 results, as shown in Figure D-17. One of the assumptions for this type-curve is a quasi steady-state of the\n27 aquifer. A quasi steady-state flow neglects specific storage, unlike the Cooper-Bredehoeft-Papadopulos\n28 method (Cooper et al., 1967, \"Response of a Finite-Diameter Well to an Instantaneous Charge of Water\").\n29 When the Cooper-Bredehoeft-Papadopulos method was run, it did not converge with the test data,\n30 indicating the aquifer conditions are more suitable for the Springer-Gelhar method. In addition, the\n31 Barker-Black fractured aquifer solution method failed to converge (Barker and Black, 1983, \"Slug Test in\n32 Fissured Aquifers\"). The Springer-Gelhar results derived a hydraulic conductivity of 134 m/d. For\n33 comparison, three additional methods (Bouwer-Rice, Hvorslev, and Barker-Black double porosity\n34 fractured aquifer method) also were analyzed; however, the curve-type matching alignment with the data\n35 was either significantly different and did not converge or only visually applied to the later recovering slug\n36 test results using line-matching, which produced much greater hydraulic conductivity results (Bouwer and\n37 Rice, 1976, \"A Slug Test for Determining Hydraulic Conductivity of Unconfined Aquifers With\n38 Completely or Partially Penetrating Wells;\" Hvorslev, 1951, Time Lag and Soil Permeability in\n39 Ground- Water Observations). As discussed in PNNL-14804, the semi-empirical nature of the Bouwer\n40 and Rice method for complex well/aquifer conditions can lead to declining levels of accuracy beyond\n41 30 percent. Thus, the best estimate of the hydraulic conductivity for well 299-E26-77 is 134 m/d using the\n42 Springer-Gelhar solution. Because hydraulic conductivity results from other tests in the area produce\n43 much lower results for the Hanford formation, the fractured flow top appears to be the dominant flow\n44 regime at this well. If the fractured flow top is thinner and the borehole diameter within the basalt is\n45 smaller, the hydraulic conductivity value would be even higher. Conversely, if the flow top is thicker and\n46 the borehole diameter is larger, the hydraulic conductivity value would be smaller.\nD-12\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 Well 299-E26-79 was completed in 2008 with 4 m (13.2 ft) of screen across the EMB flow top and 2.7 m\n2 (8.9 ft) across the overlying Ringold and Hanford sediments. The 2008 derived hydraulic conductivity\n3 was reported in SGW-41072 at several tens of meters/day. Because there were no specific values\n4 presented in this report, the two slug withdraw test data were retrieved and reanalyzed with type-curve\n5 methods, as discussed previously for well 299-E26-77. The early slug test data could not be fit by any of\n6 the AQTESOLV solution methods. Fitting the remaining portion of the data produced significantly larger\n7 hydraulic conductivity results by one to two orders of magnitude than at well 299-E26-77. Because the\n8 results are not consistent with the other LERF well results, the data do not appear to be useable; therefore,\n9 no hydraulic conductivity results were generated for this well.\n10 Well 299-E35-2 (now sample dry) was screened mainly across the sediments above the EMB flow top\n11 (1.9 m [6.2 ft]) with a portion of the screen across the EMB flow top (0.4 m [1.3 ft]). The 1990 derived\n12 transmissivity value for well 299-E35-2 was 6 m2/day (20 ft2/day), with a hydraulic conductivity of 39.7\n13 m/day (130 ft/day).\n14 In summary, the multiple slug test results at six of the seven wells described in this subsection adequately\n15 define the hydraulic conductivity for the basalt flow top and Hanford sediments. The basalt flow top slug\n16 test data produced varying results of hydraulic conductivity. To the east, the results were low, while\n17 results to the south and west of LERF were significantly greater than the overlying Ringold and Hanford\n18 sediment results. The range of hydraulic conductivity beneath and west of LERF appears to exceed\n19 100 m/day. A best estimate is 134 m/day. The overlying suprabasalt sediments were consistent with a\n20 hydraulic conductivity range of 24.4 to 42.8 m/day, with a best estimate of 39.5 m/day. These values will\n21 be used to derive the rate of flow for LERF. Although effective porosity was not derived from tests\n22 completed at LERF, the effective porosity to be used for flow rate calculations at LERF is 0.1. This value\n23 was chosen because of the evaluation process discussed in SGW-54508, WMA C September 2012\n24 Quarterly Groundwater Monitoring Report.\n25 D2.2.2 Flow Dynamics\n26 Regional groundwater flow was initially from west to east but was impacted by groundwater mounding\n27 resulting from wastewater discharges primarily to the east. These impacts have diminished significantly\n28 and do not appear to contribute to the flow regime beneath LERF; however, they still appear to affect the\n29 groundwater quality at well 299-E26-1 1.\n30 Recently, statistical methods have been applied to deriving the flow direction. Table D-5 provides the\n31 gradient and magnitude associated with the statistically corrected calculations since the installation and\n32 water level collection at well 299-E26-14. Although the p-value indicates the derived values have a\n33 moderate amount of uncertainty (e.g., 20 to 30 percent), the direction has been very constant ranging\n34 between 186 and 198 degrees from north (e.g., southwest of south flow). The average direction is\n35 190 degrees from north. In addition, the gradient magnitude has been constant, ranging between 2.39E-04\n36 and 2.98E-04, with an average of 2.7E-4. If these average values are applied to the following formula\n37 V=(K*G)/nk (Driscoll, 1986, Groundwater and Wells); where V is the flow rate, K is the hydraulic\n38 conductivity, G is the gradient, and n, is the effective porosity, then the average flow rate in the\n39 suprabasalt sediments could be 0.11 m/day or 38.9 m/year. This value correlates with the movement of a\n40 sulfate plume originating to the northwest and west of LERF, as explained in Section 2.10.3.6 and displayed\n41 in Figure 2.10-42 of DOE/RL-2008-01, Hanford Site Groundwater Monitoring for Fiscal Year 2007.\n42 Although the derived gradient magnitude and associated flow rate beneath LERF is consistent with other\n43 observances of migrating plume rates, as discussed in the previous paragraph, the 190 degree flow\n44 direction and increasing anion and cation concentrations at well 299-E26-14 (Figure D-18) do not\n45 correlate with the perceived source of anion and cation increases. One of the most distinguishable\nD-13\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 constituents associated with the anion and cation increases is sulfate. Sulfate was initially observed\n2 increasing at significant levels at well 299-E34-7, located northwest of LERF, in the mid-1990s, as shown\n3 in Figure D-19. This well became sample dry in 2005, two years after concentrations had peaked at\n4 671 mg/L. The extent and source of the sulfate is uncertain; however, various conceptual models have\n5 been discussed to a limited degree. Movement of the sulfate also has been discussed in several of the\n6 Hanford Site Groundwater Monitoring Reports over the past two decades, and an interpreted snapshot of\n7 the sulfate plume is provided for 2008 and 2013 (Figure D-20). Historically, sulfate increases along the\n8 west side of the LERF monitoring network appear to be associated with transverse dispersivity because of\n9 the lack of vadose zone moisture during drilling well 299-E26-77, the derived southward flow direction\n10 from monitoring network, and smaller slope of sulfate increase at well 299-E26- 10 than at well\n11 299-E34-7 (Figure D-19).\n12 More recently, the rate and direction of groundwater flow appear to be in a state of change regionally.\n13 Sulfate concentrations leveled off between 2009 and 2011 near LERF, when the regional flow conditions\n14 were considered to be at a minimum compared to previous years (Figure D-18). Since the middle of 2011,\n15 when the Columbia River elevation began to exceed the 200 East groundwater elevations, concentrations\n16 have been increasing at a greater rate in wells farther east than at well 299-E26-10 (Figure D-18).\n17 Three explanations are provided for what may be occurring:\n18 * The northwest sulfate source may be diminishing and because well 299-E26-10 is spatially closer to\n19 the source, it is beginning to decrease with the decreasing front, while wells 299-E26-14 and\n20 299-E26-79, farther spatially from the proposed northwest source, are still within the increasing front\n21 of the sulfate plume.\n22 * The flow direction has shifted to a southeast of east to an easterly flow direction, causing greater\n23 concentrations to migrate preferentially toward wells 299-E26-14 and 299-E26-79.\n24 * The source of sulfate increases may be from a more regional source as sulfate increases have also\n25 been seen at well 299-E26-1 1, but to a smaller degree, and delayed compared to well 299-E26-10\n26 (Figure D-2 1).\n27 Because of the consistent flow direction derived by the current monitoring network and the larger\n28 influence of sulfate increases seen across the LERF monitoring network, the sulfate increases are\n29 considered to be from a larger regional source. As such, well 299-E26-14 provides a sufficient\n30 representation of the groundwater quality migrating into the area from the north. However, to ensure that\n31 conditions continue to reflect this conceptual flow model, well 299-E26-77 will be monitored but\n32 considered a crossgradient monitoring well and not included in upgradient statistical measurements.\n33 Water levels will continue to be collected at wells 299-E26-10 and 299-E26-77 to maintain statistical\n34 analyses of the flow direction. Should conditions change in the statistically derived flow direction or\n35 groundwater quality parameters at well 299-E26-77 suggest a change in sulfate migration, then the\n36 information will be relayed in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) quarterly\n37 report with a proposed action.\n38 Based on the accepted southward flow direction, well 299-E26-79 is the only downgradient well currently\n39 at LERF. Because the basalt flow top appears to be connected hydraulically to the suprabasalt sediments\n40 and provides a potentially more transmissive pathway, well 299-E26-79 does not appear to be sufficiently\n41 located to monitor the easternmost basin.\n42 D2.3 Groundwater Chemistry\n43 Groundwater chemistry in the uppermost aquifer beneath LERF was affected by several years of diluted\n44 liquid waste discharge to the 216-B-3 Pond System, which ceased in 1997. Figure D-22 provides an\nD-14\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 illustration of the groundwater chemical facies at various LERF wells from the early 1990s to 2013 using\n2 Stiff Diagrams. As can be seen in the figure during the early to mid-1990s, the groundwater chemical\n3 facies was calcium-bicarbonate, except to the west of LERF where a calcium-bicarbonate-sulfate facies\n4 was present at well 299-E34-7. By 1999, the groundwater at well 299-E34-7 was a strong calcium-sulfate\n5 facies, and well 299-E26-10, located to the southeast of well 299-E34-7, was changing to a\n6 calcium-sulfate facies. In 2001, well 299-E26-10 was a calcium-sulfate facies.\n7 In 2006, well 299-E26-1 1, located to the east of LERF, was beginning to show signs of changing from a\n8 calcium-bicarbonate facies. By 2011, well 299-E26-11 also had changed to a calcium-sulfate facies.\n9 Although well 299-E26-11 saw a change in the chemical nature of the groundwater after wells to the\n10 west, it has had a greater water elevation than the wells to the west. This indicates the water facies change\n11 must be from north of well 299-E26-1 1. Further east at well 699-45-42, located east of well 299-E26-11,\n12 a calcium-bicarbonate chemical facies was still present in 2012.\n13 The wells to the north and south of LERF portray an intermediate chemical facies, which is between the\n14 strong calcium-sulfate facies to the west and the more dilute calcium-sulfate facies to the east.\n15 For comparison, the calcium and sulfate milliequivalents in well 299-E26-10 in January of 2013 were\n16 6.4 to 5.5, respectively. The milliequivalents at well 299-E26-11 in January 2013 were 2.6 for both\n17 calcium and sulfate. The January 2013 milliequivalent results for wells 299-E26-14 and 299-E26-79 were\n18 3.9 to 3.3 and 3.7 to 3.0, respectively. Thus, the chemical facies is slightly stronger to the north of LERF\n19 than south, which is downgradient of LERF.\n20 The fact that all the wells near LERF are showing chemical facies changes to a calcium-sulfate indicates\n21 that the wells are hydraulically connected and that there is a sulfate source to the north of LERF.\n22 Water quality parameters will continue to be collected semiannually for purposes of further evaluation, as\n23 shown in Table D-6.\n24 D2.4 Well Completions and Conditions\n25 The basic well information is summarized in Table D-4 and in Figures D-23 through D-27. Five wells are\n26 provided for discussions related to the geology and hydrogeology; however, only four of the wells\n27 (299-E26-10, 299-E26-14, 299-E26-77, and 299-E26-79) are being used for monitoring the groundwater\n28 near LERF. The four wells allow use of statistical measures to derive a groundwater gradient and direction.\n29 All four wells extend beyond 61 m (200 ft) in depth. Although the new wells extend 5.5 to 6.1 m\n30 (18 to 20 ft) into the EMB, the screened intervals in all four wells intercept the unconfined aquifer as\n31 discussed in Section D2.2.1.\n32 The initial LERF groundwater monitoring wells were installed in 1990 and included three downgradient\n33 wells on the west end of the facility boundary and one upgradient well at the east end of the facility. This\n34 configuration was based on the east-to-west groundwater flow direction, caused by the recharge mound\n35 created by years of liquid effluent disposal to B Pond. Wells 299-E26-9, 299-E26-10, and 299-E35-2\n36 were originally installed as downgradient wells and well 299-E26-11 as an upgradient well. Wells\n37 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79 were installed in 2008. Well 299-E26-77 is adjacent to the location of well\n38 299-E26-9, and well 299-E26-79 is south of LERF between Basins 42 and 43 (Figure D-2). Well\n39 299-E26-10 (Figure D-23) has a 4.5 m (15 ft) screen, screening across the entire saturated suprabasalt\n40 sediments. The well screen in 299-E26-10 penetrates approximately 0.5 m (1.8 ft) into the basalt. Well\n41 299-E26-1 1 (Figure D-3 and D.24) was completed with a 1.5 m (5 ft) long channel-pack screen placed\n42 completely within the basalt flow top and includes a sand pack that extends 1.3 m (4.4 ft) above the\n43 screen top.\nD-1 5\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 Well 299-E26-14 encountered groundwater at approximately 60.5 m (198.4 ft) bgs and was drilled to a\n2 total depth of 73.3 m (240.6 ft) bgs (Figure D-25). The well is constructed with 6.1 m (20 ft) total length\n3 of screen installed across approximately 5.5 m (18 ft) of Ringold and Hanford sediments. Only a small\n4 portion (0.27 m or 0.9 ft) of the Ringold sediments are adjacent the bottom of the well screen. The screen\n5 is 10 cm (4 in.) in diameter, 20 slot, stainless-steel wire-wrap. The well has a 1 m (3 ft) blank sump below\n6 the screen. The casing from the top of the screen to land surface is 10 cm (4 in.) diameter stainless steel.\n7 Well 299-E26-77 encountered groundwater at approximately 63.4 m (208 ft) bgs and was drilled to a total\n8 depth of 71 m (232.8 ft) bgs (Figure D-26). The well is constructed with 7.6 m (25 ft) total length of screen\n9 installed across approximately 1.4 m (4.6 ft) of sediments and 6.2 m (21.4 ft) of basalt flow top. Well\n10 299-E26-79 encountered groundwater at 61.5 m (201.7 ft) bgs and was drilled to a total depth of 68.5 m\n11 (224.8 ft) bgs (Figure D-27). The well is constructed with 7.6 m (25 ft) total length of screen installed across\n12 approximately 3.7 m (12 ft) of sediments and 3.9 m (13 ft) of basalt flow top. The screens are 10 cm (4 in.)\n13 in diameter, 20-slot, stainless-steel wire-wrap. Both wells have a 1 m (3 ft) blank sump below the screens.\n14 The casing from the top of the screen to land surface is 10 cm (4 in.) diameter stainless steel.\n15 The longevity of the operable monitoring lifetime for the remaining LERF wells is not a concern as water\n16 levels are only being collected from well 299-E26-10 and, based on recent water level declines, should be\n17 useable for decades. The other three wells have significant water for sample collection and should not go\n18 dry, based on pre-Hanford groundwater elevations.\n19 D3 Groundwater-Monitoring Program\n20 Groundwater monitoring at LERF is in detection monitoring and the indicator parameters are discussed\n21 further in Section D3.6.1. The indicator parameters were derived as summarized in Section D3.2 and\n22 discussed in further detail in Section DI.5. The detection monitoring sample frequency is semiannual as\n23 discussed in Section D3.6.2. Sampling irocedures and required documentation is provided in Sections\n24 D3.6.3 and D3.6.4, respectively. The analytical procedures, analytical quality control (QC), data\n25 management are discussed in Sections D3.9, D3.9.1, and D3.9.2, respectively.\n26 Statistical methods are employed to determine local background conditions for the upgradient well\n27 299-E26-14 as provided in Section D3.9.3. Detection monitoring at LERF is discussed in Section D3.4.\n28 Should indicator parameter results exceed local background levels then resampling will be implemented\n29 for determining if a false positive result has occurred or if assessment monitoring must be undertaken as\n30 discussed in Sections D3.3, D3.9.3, and D3.1 1.\n31 Reporting will be annually through the Hanford Site Annual Groundwater Monitoring Report unless a\n32 significant exceedance of the background values determined for the upgradient well 299-E26-14 is\n33 verified. If an exceedance is verified then the notification process discussed in Section D3.11 will be\n34 followed.\n35 As discussed in Sections Dl and D2 and their subsections, the following characteristics describe the\n36 hydrogeology in the LERF area:\n37 * Representative groundwater samples can be collected from the uppermost aquifer.\n38 * Upgradient background samples at well 299-E26-14 are representative of unaffected groundwater\n39 from LERF.\n40 * Groundwater samples collected at well 299-E26-79 are representative of the quality of groundwater\n41 passing the LERF point of compliances.\nD-16\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 Hydraulic characterization tests conducted over the past two decades and the groundwater chemical facies\n2 changes indicate the hydrostratigraphic units underlying the LERF basins constitute an aquifer unit that is\n3 continuous beneath the LERF basins and is capable of yielding representative groundwater samples.\n4 D3.1 Objectives of Dangerous Waste Groundwater Monitoring and Past Monitoring Results\n5 A groundwater monitoring program, in accordance with the requirements of WAC 173-303-645, is\n6 designed to determine whether there is statistically significant evidence of contamination in the\n7 uppermost aquifer attributable to the LERF basins. The statistical parametric t-test approach at LERF\n8 compares two distinct statistical populations for true differences in population means as discussed further\n9 in Section D3.9.3.\n10 By the date of this permit, the action leakage rate has not been exceeded during operations, and results of\n11 the LERF groundwater monitoring program indicate the LERF basins have not impacted groundwater\n12 quality beneath the site. Past monitoring results from former downgradient wells 299-E26-10 and\n13 299-E26-1 1, and more recent results from newer wells 299-E26-77 and 299-E26-79, have not indicated\n14 dangerous constituents above background levels, with the exception of one positive carbon tetrachloride\n15 result at each well. Because the detections were followed by a series of non-detect values and the results\n16 were associated with out-of-limit QC samples, the reported concentrations appeared to be associated with\n17 a laboratory error and were flagged as suspect. As a result, a detection monitoring program in accordance\n18 with WAC 173-303-645(9) is appropriate for the site to provide compliance with the requirements of\n19 WAC 173-303-645.\n20 D3.2 Dangerous Constituents\n21 A list of dangerous and/or mixed aqueous waste that can be accepted in LERF is defined by the\n22 requirements of Addendum B (Waste Analysis Plan).\n23 Dangerous constituents and suitable indicator parameters that provide a reliable indication of the presence\n24 of dangerous constituents in groundwater for purposes of groundwater monitoring were based on target\n25 parameter constituents from Addendum B (Waste Analysis Plan), and results of LERF basin water\n26 samples collected between July 1999 and June 2013. Several target parameters in the Waste Analysis Plan\n27 (Addendum B) occur in the LERF basin influent data and were evaluated relative to the dangerous waste\n28 characteristics (groundwater monitoring list in WAC 173-303-090, \"Dangerous Waste Characteristics,\"\n29 and Ecology Publication 97-407, Chemical Testing Methods for Designating Dangerous Waste:\n30 WAC 173-303-090 & -100, Appendix 5. As discussed in Section D1.5, dangerous waste constituents\n31 measured as part of routine liquid sampling in the LERF basins were included as indicator parameters.\n32 Tables D-1 through D-3 present a list of dangerous constituents measured as part of routine liquid\n33 sampling in the LERF basins from as early as February of 2000 through 2011. The results were further\n34 evaluated to identify reliable parameters for the indication or identification of dangerous waste\n35 constituents in groundwater, as discussed in Section D1.5. The full list of groundwater monitoring\n36 indicator parameters is provided in Section D3.6.1.\n37 D3.3 Concentration Limits\n38 A series of events that triggers the shift from detection monitoring to compliance monitoring is prescribed\n39 in WAC 173-303-645. If there is statistically significant evidence of contamination, as required in\n40 WAC 173-303-645(9)(f), groundwater protection standards and concentration limits will be established\n41 subsequently in accordance with WAC 173-303-645(9)(g)(iv)(D). Section D3.1 1, Evaluation and\n42 Notification, provides the process and schedule for actions, notification, and permit modification, if\n43 necessary.\nD-17\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 If a tolerance limit is exceeded at a statistically significant level, additional measurements will be\n2 conducted to verify that a detection event has occurred. If the detection of a dangerous constituent is\n3 verified, as discussed in Section D3.1 1, compliance monitoring will be implemented in accordance with\n4 WAC 173-303-645(10).\n5 D3.4 Groundwater Monitoring System and Point of Compliance\n6 The groundwater monitoring system for LERF uses existing wells, 299-E26-14 and 299-E26-79.\n7 Well 299-E26-14 is an upgradient well and well 299-E26-79 is a downgradient well based on the flow\n8 direction presented in Section D2.2.2. A third detection monitoring well will need to be installed just\n9 south of the open interval between Basin 43 and 44 in order to compare the groundwater quality\n10 downgradient of LERF Basin 44 (Figure D-28). All three of these wells will be monitored in accordance\n11 with the requirements provided in this permit. The additional well to be installed, 299-E26-15, will be\n12 planned through Tri-Party Agreement (Ecology et al., 1989, Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and\n13 Consent Order) Milestone M-024, which is updated on a yearly basis. The well is tentatively planned to\n14 be installed prior before fiscal year 2016.\n15 D3.5 Compliance Period\n16 The compliance period will be the number of years equal to the active life of the waste management area\n17 including any additional years required for corrective actions, if necessary. Any additional years\n18 associated with corrective actions will be completed after three consecutive years in which the\n19 groundwater protective standard for any specific dangerous waste constituent has not been exceeded in\n20 accordance with WAC 173-303-645(7).\n21 D3.6 Sampling and Analysis\n22 This section describes the groundwater detection sampling and analysis program for the three LERF\n23 regulated units (Basins 42, 43, and 44), including monitoring parameters, analytical methods, monitoring\n24 frequency, and sampling protocols.\n25 D3.6.1 Monitoring Parameters\n26 Monitoring parameters include the indicator and geochemical parameters. The monitoring of these two\n27 parameters is similar, and sampling and analysis frequencies are the same and will be done concurrently\n28 on a semiannual basis.\n29 As identified in Section DI.5, carbon tetrachloride and TOX are reliable indicator parameters for the\n30 presence of dangerous constituents associated with LERF. In addition, the standard parameters of pH,\n31 specific conductance, and TOC provide the requirements of detection monitoring in accordance with\n32 WAC 173-303-645(9)(a). Table D-7 provides a list of these constituents and the frequency of sampling.\n33 Samples will also be collected semiannually and analyzed for major anions, cations, and alkalinity to\n34 evaluate groundwater geochemistry, as discussed in Table D-6.\n35 Samples also will be collected for Cr(VI) for evaluation as an additional indicator parameter, as discussed\n36 in Section D1.5.\n37 D3.6.2 Sampling Frequency\n38 Samples will be collected semiannually from wells 299-E26-14 and 299-E26-79 to determine whether\n39 there is statistically significant evidence of contamination for the indicator parameters established in\n40 Section D3.6.1.\n41 Samples will be collected semiannually and analyzed for major anions, cations, and alkalinity to evaluate\n42 groundwater geochemistry, as discussed in Section D2.3 and shown in Table D-6.\nD-18\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 Finally, samples will be collected semiannually for Cr(VI) evaluation as an indicator parameter, as\n2 discussed in Section D 1.5 and Table D-7.\n3 D3.6.3 Sampling Procedures\n4 Groundwater sampling procedures, sample collection documentation, sample preservation and shipment,\n5 and chain-of-custody requirements are described in this subsection. The Permittees will develop,\n6 maintain, and conduct work according to procedures consistent with, and no less stringent than, those\n7 described to be conducted. The Permittees will maintain current copies of these procedures in the\n8 Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200 Area ETF file, as required by Permit Condition 11.1.1\n9 Samplers fill out groundwater sample report forms as they purge and sample each well. Field personnel\n10 measure water levels in each well before sampling and then purge stagnant water from the well. Field\n11 personnel also record time of sampling, which allows correlation with barometric pressure measurements\n12 at the Hanford Meteorological Station. Water levels are typically measured with laminated-steel electrical\n13 sounding tapes with a precision of 2 mm. Procedures require sample collection after three casing volumes\n14 of water have been purged from the well and after field parameters (pH, temperature, specific\n15 conductance, and turbidity) have stabilized. Field parameters are measured in a flow-through chamber.\n16 Both filtered and unfiltered samples are collected for metals analyses. Filtering is performed in the field\n17 with 0.45-micron, in-line, disposable filters to ensure that results represent dissolved metals and do not\n18 include particulates. Dissolved trace metals analysis (from filtered samples) will be used for statistical\n19 analyses of trace metal arsenic.\n20 Sample preservation techniques will follow generally accepted practices (e.g., U.S. Environmental\n21 Protection Agency [EPA]-approved guidelines such as SW-846, Test Methods for Evaluating Solid\n22 Waste: Physical/Chemical Methods, Third Edition; Final Update IV-B, Table 11-1, or equivalent) and\n23 will be documented in sample authorization forms generated by the Sample and Data Management\n24 organization. Chemical preservatives are added to collection bottles before use in the field. A chemical\n25 preservative label is affixed to the sample container listing the specific preservative. The preservative's\n26 brand name, lot number, concentration, and date opened are recorded. As part of sample preservation,\n27 samples may be refrigerated or stored on ice as necessary prior to delivery to the analyzing laboratory.\n28 D3.6.4 Sample Chain-of-Custody\n29 Groundwater samplers use chain-of-custody forms to document the integrity of groundwater samples from\n30 the time of collection through data reporting. The forms are generated during scheduling and are managed\n31 through a documented procedure. Required information recorded on the forms includes the following:\n32 * Sampler's name\n33 * Method of shipment and destination\n34 * Collection date and time\n35 * Sample identification numbers\n36 * Analysis methods\n37 * Preservation methods\n38 Samples are labeled and sealed with evidence tape, wrapped with bubble wrap, and placed in a\n39 U.S. Department of Transportation-approved container with ice, as appropriate. The packaging parameters\n40 for samples are determined by associated hazards. Samples for offsite laboratories are shipped according\n41 to U.S. Department of Transportation regulations. A chain-of-custody form accompanies all samples.\nD-19\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 When samples are transferred from one custodian to another (e.g., from sampler to shipper, or from\n2 shipper to analytical laboratory), the receiving custodian inspects the form and the samples, noting any\n3 deficiencies. Each transfer of custody is documented by the printed names and signatures of the custodian\n4 relinquishing the samples and the custodian receiving the samples, as well as the time and date of transfer.\n5 Commercial shippers do not sign chain-of-custody forms, but the forms are signed by the receiving\n6 laboratory, and sample integrity is verified by inspecting the bottle seals.\n7 D3.7 Decontamination of Drilling and Sampling Equipment\n8 The following information is included relative to well drilling equipment for new wells installed at LERF\n9 for this Permit. Well drilling equipment is decontaminated using high temperature and pressure washing.\n10 The equipment then is rinsed with clean water.\n11 Equipment for collecting soil samples during drilling for later chemical analysis is decontaminated.\n12 Equipment is washed with phosphate-free detergent, rinsed three times with de-ionized water, rinsed once\n13 with nitric acid (glass or stainless-steel equipment only), rinsed three more times with de-ionized water,\n14 and then finally rinsed with hexane. After heat drying, equipment is wrapped in unused aluminum foil and\n15 sealed with tape until needed. The tape shall not come into contact with the equipment to avoid any\n16 contamination from the materials in the tape.\n17 Monitoring wells for LERF shall be equipped with dedicated sampling pumps. Sample pumps are placed\n18 at approximately mid-depth within the screen interval. Water-level measuring tapes are cleaned with\n19 potable or deionized water and a clean towel. Sample manifolds used at the well head require\n20 decontamination as follows: wash with a phosphate-free detergent, rinse three times in high-purity water,\n21 rinse in a 1 M solution of nitric acid, rinse three more times in high-purity water, then rinse in hexane, and\n22 finally dry in drying chamber. These are done in accordance with established procedures.\n23 D3.8 Quality Objectives and Criteria\n24 The QC program is designed to assess and assure the reliability and validity of groundwater data, and to\n25 document whether the resulting data are of the quantity and quality necessary for the intended decision-\n26 making purpose. In groundwater detection monitoring, the primary decision-making purpose is to\n27 determine whether a statistically significant increase in a dangerous constituent concentration is observed\n28 in groundwater downgradient from the permitted site. Consequently, data quality is monitored by\n29 evaluating the results of QC samples, conducting audits, validating groundwater data, and comparing\n30 these results to data quality requirements established in this groundwater monitoring plan. Accuracy,\n31 precision, and detection are the primary parameters used to assess data quality. Data for these parameters\n32 are obtained from two categories of QC samples: field QC samples that provide checks on field and\n33 laboratory activities, and laboratory QC samples that monitor laboratory performance. Table D-8\n34 summarizes the types of samples in each category and the sample frequencies and characteristics\n35 evaluated.\n36 D3.9 Analytical Procedures\n37 All field and laboratory instrumentation are calibrated using approved procedures, and analytical\n38 measurements are generated according to approved procedures. These procedures include quality checks\n39 to ensure the resulting analytical values are of known quality.\n40 Instruments for field measurements (e.g., pH, specific conductance, temperature, and turbidity) are\n41 verified using standard solutions before use. These include, for pH, 4, 7, and 10 buffer/standard solutions;\n42 for specific conductance, 445 uS/cm and 1,413 uS/cm solutions; and for turbidity, Gelex standards 0-10,\n43 0-100, and 0-1,000 nephelometric turbidity units. Instruments are operated in accordance with the\nD-20\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 manufacturer's instructions. Each instrument is assigned a unique number that is tracked via calibration\n2 documentation and field logbooks and sampling reports.\n3 Laboratory analytical methods are specified in Table D-9 and are generally specified in contracts with the\n4 laboratories. Laboratory methods for chemical parameters are typically standard methods from SW-846;\n5 EPA-600/4-79-020, Methods for Chemical Analysis of Water and Wastes; or A-PHA/AWWA/WEF, 2012,\n6 Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. Analytes, analytical methods, and\n7 required maximum practical quantitation limits are shown in Table D-9.\n8 D3.9.1 Quality Control\n9 QC data are evaluated based on acceptance criteria for each QC sample type, as summarized by\n10 constituent in Table D-10. These criteria limits are intended to provide confidence that the analytical and\n11 field methods are in control and provide data of known quality. For field and method blanks, the\n12 acceptance limit is two times the instrument detection limit (metals) or method detection limit (other\n13 chemical parameters), except for the common laboratory contaminants 2-butanone, acetone, methylene\n14 chloride, toluene, and phthalate esters where the limit is five times the method detection limit.\n15 Groundwater samples that are associated (i.e., collected on the same date and analyzed by the same\n16 method) with out-of-limit field blanks are given a review qualifier of \"Q\" in the Hanford Environmental\n17 Information System (HEIS) database to indicate a potential problem, and then recorded in the Hanford\n18 Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200 Area ETF file pursuant to Permit Condition III.3.D.1.b.\n19 Field duplicates must agree within 20 percent (as measured by relative percent difference) to be\n20 acceptable. Only those field duplicates with at least one result greater than five times the appropriate\n21 detection limit shall be evaluated. In the case where one result is a non-detect, the detection limit is used\n22 to calculate the relative percent difference. Unacceptable field duplicate results are given a review\n23 qualifier of \"Q\" in the database and recorded in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200\n24 Area ETF file.\n25 The specified frequency for laboratory duplicates, matrix spikes, matrix spike duplicates, surrogates, and\n26 laboratory control samples are defined in Table D-10 in accordance with SW-846. The acceptance criteria\n27 for the associated parameter data shall be analyzed and recorded in accordance with Section D3.10.2.\n28 Sample holding times depend on the analyte and are specified in the Environmental Quality Assurance\n29 Program Plan. Data associated with exceeded holding times are given a review qualifier of \"H\" in the\n30 HEIS database and noted in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200 Area ETF file.\n31 Data exceeding holding times shall be maintained but potentially may not be used in statistical analyses.\n32 Table D-1 1 lists the acceptable accuracy for the blind standards for carbon tetrachloride and TOX. These\n33 samples are prepared by spiking Hanford background well water (currently, wells 699-19-88 and\n34 699-49-100C) with known concentrations of constituents of interest. Spiking concentrations range from\n35 the detection limit to the upper limit of concentration determined in groundwater on the Hanford Site.\n36 Investigations shall be conducted for blind standards that are outside of acceptance limits. The results\n37 from these standards shall be used to determine acceptability of the associated parameter data.\n38 Additional QC measures include laboratory audits and participation in nationally based performance\n39 evaluation studies. Audit results are used to improve performance. Summaries of audit results and\n40 performance evaluation studies shall be incorporated into the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF,\n41 and 200 Area ETF file as appropriate to substantiate data quality objectives (DQOs) and data acceptance\n42 criteria.\nD-21\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 D3.9.2 Data Management\n2 This section describes data management practices.\n3 Loading Data\n4 The contract laboratories report analytical results electronically and in hardcopy. The electronic results\n5 shall be loaded into the HEIS database as they are received from the laboratories. The appropriate\n6 sections of the HEIS shall be incorporated by reference into the Hanford Facility Operating Record,\n7 LERF, and 200 Area ETF file to satisfy Permit Condition III.3D. 1.b. Field data (e.g., specific conductance,\n8 pH, temperature, turbidity, and depth to water) are recorded on field records. Data management staff enter\n9 field data into the HEIS database manually through data-entry screens and verify each value against the\n10 hardcopy. An electronic field data collection system may be implemented soon, which would replace the\n11 manual field data collection and the manual data entry process when it is implemented.\n12 Data not available electronically may include well logbooks, borehole videos, geologic descriptions, field\n13 screening data, or other information.\n14 Data Review, Verification, Validation, and Usability\n15 The final data review shall determine whether data meet the criteria specified in this subsection. The work\n16 activities shall follow documented procedures and processes for data validation and verification.\n17 Validation of groundwater data involves assessing whether the data collected and measured meet\n18 contractual quality requirements. Verification involves assessing data accuracy, completeness,\n19 consistency, availability, and internal control practices to determine overall reliability of the data\n20 collected. Other DQOs that shall be met include the proper chain-of-custody, sample handling, use of\n21 proper analytical techniques for each constituent, and the quality and acceptability of the laboratory\n22 analyses conducted.\n23 Groundwater monitoring staff performs checks on laboratory electronic data files for formatting, allowed\n24 values, data flagging (qualifiers), and completeness. A percentage of hardcopy results are verified to\n25 check for completeness; notes on condition of samples upon receipt by the laboratory; notes on problems\n26 that arose during the analysis of the samples; and correct reporting of results. If data are incomplete or\n27 deficient, staff will work with the laboratory to correct the problem discovered during the analysis.\n28 The data validation process provides the requirements and guidance for validating groundwater data that\n29 are routinely collected. Validation is a systematic process of reviewing verified data against a set of\n30 criteria (listed in Table D-10) to determine whether the data are acceptable for their intended use.\n31 Results of laboratory and field QC evaluations, blind sample results, laboratory performance evaluation\n32 samples, and holding-time criteria are considered when determining data usability. Staff review the data\n33 to identify whether observed changes reflect changes in groundwater quality or potential data errors, and\n34 they may request data reviews of laboratory, field, or water-level data for usability purposes. The laboratory\n35 may be requested to check calculations or reanalyze the sample, or the well may be resampled. Results of\n36 the data reviews are used to determine what appropriate review qualifier should be applied to the analytical\n37 results in the HEIS database (e.g., \"R\" for reject, \"Y\" for suspect, or \"G\" for good) and/or to add comments.\n38 Upon final data acceptance, both the raw data and the accepted/validated data shall be incorporated into\n39 the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200 Area ETF file.\n40 Data Review Corrective Actions\n41 The responses to data quality defects are identified through the verification/validation process. Corrective\n42 actions are shown in Table D-8.\nD-22\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 D3.9.3 Statistical Analysis of Groundwater Monitoring Data\n2 Groundwater monitoring constituents have been identified for the LERF basins and are listed in\n3 Table D-10. The dangerous constituents and indicator parameters used to indicate the presence of\n4 contamination (WAC 173-303-645(9)(a)) and subject to statistical evaluation are listed in Table D-7 and\n5 include carbon tetrachloride, pH, specific conductance, TOC, and TOX.\n6 To establish background conditions, the previous data collected over the past two years will be used.\n7 Every year, background results will be evaluated for updating the critical mean for each indicator\n8 parameter identified in Table D-8. Sample collection and analysis will continue on a semiannual basis.\n9 The statistical method for comparing baseline (background) groundwater quality with compliance-point\n10 groundwater quality is the Welch's t-test in accordance with WAC 173-303-645(8)(h)(i), and it is\n11 recommended for detection monitoring when population variances might differ between two groups, as\n12 stated in EPA 530/R-09-007, Statistical Analysis of Groundwater Monitoring Data at RCRA Facilities\n13 Unified Guidance. Applying this parametric t-test provides a reasonably robust statistical procedure and\n14 assurance when background data are at a minimum and the underlying populations may not meet\n15 normality. However, normality can usually be met by log transforming the data. As more background data\n16 is generated for well 299-E26-14, additional tests may be applied if spatial variability becomes an issue,\n17 such as the Wilcoxon Rank-sum Test.\n18 The Welch's t-test procedure can be implemented as follows:\n219 I. Compute the sample mean 9, standard deviation s, and variance s , in each of the\n20 background and compliance well data sets.\nS2 S2\n21 II. Compute Welch's t-statistic using the following equation t = (XC -XBG\nnBG nC\n22 III. Compute the approximate degrees of freedom using the following equation\ns 2 Sc (S2BG BG/n12 (S2c /n2df = + -+\nknBG nc n BG c\n23 IV. Use Table 16-1 of Appendix D in EPA 530/R-09-007 to assign the upper 95 percent\n24 critical mean based on the degrees of freedom.\n25 V. Compare the t-statistic against the critical point, tqp. When the condition t < tp, conclude\n26 there is no statistically significant difference between the background and compliance point\n27 population means. If, however, t > tp, conclude that the compliance point population\n28 mean is significantly greater than the background mean at the a level of significance.\n29 As monitoring continues and the process is shown to be in control (i.e., there is no statistically significant\n30 evidence of facility impact to groundwater), the baseline mean and standard deviation should be updated\n31 periodically (e.g., every 1 or 2 years) to incorporate the new data (EPA 530/R-09-007). This reduces\n32 uncertainty in the background and helps adjust for groundwater influences from outside sources.\n33 This updating process should continue for the lifetime of the monitoring program.\n34 If an exceedance occurs, resampling will be undertaken to verify or refute the original exceedance.\n35 The analytical result from the resample is substituted into the previous formulas in place of the original\n36 value obtained, and the Welch's t-test statistic is updated. If resampling does not confirm the exceedance,\n37 and ifthe exceedance can be shown to be a measurement in error or a confirmed outlier, it should be\n38 excluded from the revised background. Otherwise, any disconfirmed exceedances (including any\nD-23\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 resamples that exceed the background limit but are disconfirmed by other resamples) should probably be\n2 included when updating the background The reason is that background limits designed to incorporate\n3 retesting are computed as low as possible to ensure adequate statistical power (EPA 530/R-09-007).\n4 D3.10 Reporting and Recordkeeping\n5 Reporting of monitoring evaluations for LERF will be carried out through the Hanford Site Annual\n6 Groundwater Monitoring Report.\n7 Pertinent information for groundwater monitoring and electronic files for groundwater data shall be\n8 maintained in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200 Area ETF file required by Permit\n9 Condition 11.1.1. Records may be stored in either electronic or hardcopy format.\n10 The Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF, and 200 Area ETF file will also include, consistent with\n11 Permit Condition III.3.D.1.b, the following items:\n12 * Groundwater sample reports\n13 * Chain-of-custody forms\n14 * Sample receipt records\n15 D3.11 Evaluation and Notification\n16 Groundwater flow rate and direction in the uppermost aquifer will be evaluated and reported annually.\n17 Groundwater indicator parameter data collected under this permit will be reviewed semiannually to\n18 determine if there is statistically significant evidence of contamination (in accordance with\n19 WAC 173-303-645(9)(f)) using the statistical method provided in Section D3.9.3. The results of the\n20 statistical evaluation and associated information will be submitted to the Washington State Department of\n21 Ecology (Ecology) annually through the Hanford Site Annual Groundwater Monitoring Report\n22 (WAC 173-303-645(9)(c)).\n23 If statistically significant evidence of contamination is determined for one or more of the dangerous\n24 constituents or indicator parameters, at any monitoring well at the compliance point, the owner or\n25 operator may resample within one month and repeat the analysis for the detected compounds in\n26 accordance with WAC 173-303-645(9)(g)(ii). The resample data will be compared with the control limit.\n27 If resampling confirms statistically significant evidence of contamination, the following actions will be\n28 performed in accordance with WAC 173-303-645(9)(g):\n29 * Notify Ecology in writing within seven days of the finding, indicating which chemical parameters\n30 have shown statistically significant evidence of contamination.\n31 * Sample the groundwater in all monitoring wells and determine if constituents included in Ecology\n32 Publication 97-407, Chemical Testing Methods for Designating Dangerous Waste:\n33 WAC 173-303-090 & -100, Appendix 5, are present, and if so, in what concentration. For any of these\n34 compounds detected, the owner or operator may resample within one month of receiving the results\n35 and repeat the analysis for those compounds detected. If the constituents are detected in the second\n36 analysis, they will form the basis for compliance monitoring.\n37 * If dangerous constituent(s) are detected, submit an application for a Permit modification to Ecology\n38 within 90 days to establish a compliance monitoring program in accordance with\n39 WAC 173-303-645(9)(g)(iv).\n40 * If dangerous constituents are not detected, continue to monitor in accordance with the detection\n41 monitoring program.\nD-24\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\n1 If a source other than LERF caused the contamination or the detection is an artifact caused by an error in\n2 sampling, analysis, or statistical evaluation or natural variation in groundwater (as allowed by\n3 WAC 173-303-645(9)(g)(vi), the following guidelines will apply:\n4 * Notify Ecology in writing within seven days of the finding (i.e., exceedance) and indicate the intent to\n5 make a demonstration to this effect.\n6 * Submit a report to Ecology within 90 days. The report should demonstrate that a source other than the\n7 regulated unit caused the contamination, or that the contamination resulted from an error in sampling,\n8 analysis, evaluation, or natural variation in groundwater chemistry.\n9 * Continue monitoring in accordance with the detection monitoring program.\n10 If it is determined, in accordance with WAC 173-303-645(9)(h), that the detection monitoring program no\n11 longer satisfies the requirements of WAC 173-303-645(9), submit an application to Ecology for a Permit\n12 modification within 90 days to make any appropriate changes to the program.\n13 D4 Compliance-Monitoring Program\n14 Reserved.\n15 D5 Corrective-Action Program\n16 Reserved.\n17 D6 References\n18 40 CFR 265, \"Interim Status Standards for Owners and Operators of Hazardous Waste Treatment,\n19 Storage, and Disposal Facilities,\" Subpart F, \"Ground-Water Monitoring,\" Code ofFederal\n20 Regulations.

Further discussion on these corrections is provided in Calculations in Support ofthe Low Hydraulic Gradient Evaluation Sudyfor the 200 East Area UwonfinedAquifer (ECF-200EAST-12-0086).\nAfter these corrections have been applied, a least square regression of the plane to elevations associated with the well locations is completed to derive the gradient. The gradient, azimuth, R2 ratio, the p-value are provided in the lower part of the table. Briefly, the R2 ratio is the goodness of fit\ncoefficient. Basically, it is the ratio of the sum of squares because of the regression to the total sum of squares. If the ratio of the two sums is close to 1, indicating unity, then the fit is considered good. Likewise, the p-value is the probability that the degree of an apparent spatially dependent trend\nobserved in the data (or a trend of even greater degree) would occur solely by random chance. Thus, if the p-value is less than 0.05, the fitted trend surface is deemed statistically significant. Again, further details of this process calculation are provided in ECF-200EAST-12-0086.\nD-38\n DOE/RL-2013-46 Rev. 0\nWA7890008967, PART III, OPERATING UNIT GROUP 3\nLERF AND 200 AREA ETF\nTable D-6.

PREPAREDNESS AND PREVENTION\n2 F.1 Preparedness and Prevention Requirements\n3 The following sections document the preparedness and prevention measures taken at the Liquid Effluent\n4 Retention Facility (LERF) and 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility (ETF).\n5 F.1.1 Equipment Requirements\n6 The following sections describe the internal and external communications systems and the emergency\n7 equipment required that could be activated by the LERF and 200 Area ETF Building Emergency\n8 Director (BED).\n9 F.1.1.1 Internal Communications\n10 When operators are present at the LERF, the operators carry two-way radios to maintain contact with\n11 200 Area ETF personnel. The operators at LERF are informed of emergencies (e.g., building and/or area\n12 evacuations, take-cover events, high airborne contamination, fire, and/or explosion), and are provided\n13 with emergency instructions by several systems. These systems include the mobile two-way radios, and\n14 the telephone in the LERF instrument building.\n15 The 200 Area ETF is equipped with an intemal communication system to provide immediate emergency\n16 instruction to personnel. The onsite communication system at the 200 Area ETF includes telephones,\n17 mobile two-way radios, a public address system, and alarm systems. The telephone and radio systems\n18 provide for internal and external communication. Alarm systems exist to allow personnel to respond\n19 appropriately to various emergencies, including building evacuations, take cover events, and fire and/or\n20 explosion. Addendum J provides additional information on the response activities.\n21 F.1.1.2 External Communications\n22 The LERF and its operators are equipped with devices for summoning emergency assistance from the\n23 Hanford Fire Department, the Hazardous Materials Response Team, and/or Hanford patrol, as necessary.\n24 External communication to summon emergency assistance is made by a normal telephone system or\n25 mobile two-way radios. The LERF telephone is available in the instrumentation building. The 200 Area\n26 ETF uses fire alarm pull boxes and telephones for external communication and are located at numerous\n27 locations throughout the 200 Area ETF.\n28 F.1.1.3 Emergency Equipment\n29 The LERF and 200 Area ETF rely primarily on the Hanford Fire Department to respond to fires and other\n30 emergencies as described in Permit Attachment 4, Hanford Emergency Management Plan,\n31 (DOE/RL-94-02). All LERF and 200 Area ETF operators are familiar with the LERF and 200 Area ETF\n32 contingency plans (Addendum J) and are trained in the use of emergency pumping of LERF and 200 Area\n33 ETF systems, fire, and communications equipment.\n34 Portable fire extinguishers, fire control equipment, spill control equipment, and decontamination\n35 equipment is available at various locations in the 200 Area ETF.\n36 The 200 Area ETF has fire extinguishers, automatic fire suppression systems (200 Area ETF control room\n37 and electrical room), fire alarm pull boxes, and a water spray system (200 Area ETF operating and\n38 administrative portions).\n39 Respirators, hazardous material protective gear, and special work procedure clothing for 200 Area ETF\n40 personnel are kept in the change room at the 200 Area ETF. Safety showers are located in convenient\n41 locations in the 200 Area ETF, and emergency eyewashes are available for use. Water for these devices\n42 is supplied from the 200 Area ETF sanitary water system.\nAddendum F.5\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI F.1.1.4 Water for Fire Control\n2 A water main is not provided to the LERF. The Hanford Fire Department is equipped with fire engines\n3 for fire control for fires requiring high water volume and pressure. The 200 Area ETF is serviced by two\n4 12-inch raw water lines that are tied into the 200 East Area raw water distribution grids. These lines\n5 provide a looped configuration that supplies two independent sources of raw water for fire protection and\n6 raw water uses. Connections from the 200 Area ETF raw water system supply fire hydrants and the wet\n7 pipe sprinkler system. In the event that water pressure is lost, the Hanford Fire Department is equipped\n8 with fire engines to provide needed water.\n9 F.1.2 Aisle Space Requirement\n10 The operation of the LERF does not involve aisle space. Nevertheless, the LERF and the individual\n11 basins are easily accessible to emergency response personnel and vehicles. A 6.1-meter-wide service\n12 road runs along the base of the basin area on the east, south, and west sides within the operational security\n13 fence.\n14 Aisle spacing at 200 Area ETF is sufficient to allow the movement of personnel and fire protection\n15 equipment in and around the containers. This storage arrangement also meets the requirements of the\n16 National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 1996) for the protection of personnel and the environment.\n17 A minimum 30-inch aisle space is maintained between rows of containers as required by\n18 WAC 173-303-630(5)(c).\n19 F.2 Preventive Procedures, Structures, and Equipment\n20 The following sections describe preventive procedures, structures, and equipment.\n21 F.2.1 Unloading Operations, Spill Prevention, and Control\n22 Underground pipelines that transfer aqueous waste to and from the LERF are encased in a secondary pipe.\n23 If a leak is detected in a pipeline, flow in the pipeline will be stopped and the cause of the leak\n24 investigated and remediated.\n25 If it is required to transfer aqueous waste from one LERF basin to another, existing transfer pumps are\n26 used as described in Addendum C.\n27 The 200 Area ETF Load-in Station is monitored continuously during tank-filling operations and filling is\n28 stopped immediately if leaks occur. Care is taken to ensure that even minor leaks are cleaned up\n29 immediately and disposed of in accordance with approved management procedures. Any spill that is\n30 determined to be a dangerous waste will be managed according to the requirements of WAC 173-303.\n31 F.2.2 Runoff\n32 The LERF is constructed and operated to ensure that all aqueous waste is contained within the basins.\n33 The basins are designed and operated to prevent overtopping. Furthermore, the basins are provided with\n34 very low-density polyethylene floating covers to prevent the introduction of precipitation into the basins.\n35 The basins also are graded to ensure that all precipitation outside the basins is directed away from the\n36 surface impoundments.\n37 The basins are constructed so that the top of the basin dikes are approximately 3 meters above grade. The\n38 exterior side slopes of the basins have a 2.25 (horizontal) to I (vertical) slope. Run-on of precipitation to\n39 the basins from the surrounding area is not possible because the surrounding area slopes away from the\n40 LERF.\n41 Dangerous waste and hazardous chemical handling areas at the 200 Area ETF are designed to contain\n42 spills, leaks, and wash water, thereby preventing run-off and subsequent releases. All dangerous and/or\n43 mixed waste loading and unloading areas are provided with secondary containment structures as\n44 described in Addendum C, Process Information.\nAddendum F.6\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 F.2.3 Water Supplies\n2 The LERF uses operating practices, structures, and equipment to prevent the contamination of natural\n3 water supplies (i.e., groundwater and surface water). The LERF is monitored continuously in the ETF\n4 control room during liquid waste transfers and at least daily at other times to detect abnormal conditions\n5 (e.g., leaks), and regularly inspected to detect equipment and structural deteriorations that could allow\n6 possible water supply contamination. The basins are provided with a leachate collection system that is\n7 designed to contain any leachate generated. These systems, in conjunction with the double-composite\n8 liner system and underlying low permeable clay liner, ensure that should a release occur, the release will\n9 be fully contained within the basin configuration and, therefore, water supplies will be protected.\n10 Addendum J, Contingency Plan, provides information on procedures that are implemented if a release is\n11 detected at the LERF.\n12 There are no drinking water wells near the 200 Area ETF. Therefore, a release would not immediately\n13 contaminate drinking water supplies. The 200 Area ETF uses operating practices, structures, and\n14 equipment to prevent the contamination of natural water supplies (i.e., groundwater and surface water).\n15 The 200 Area ETF is continuously monitored in the ETF control room during liquid waste processing\n16 operations and/or Load-In Station transfer to detect abnormal conditions and at least daily at other times ,\n17 and is inspected regularly to detect equipment and structural deteriorations that could allow spills to the\n18 environment. Areas in contact with dangerous and/or mixed waste are monitored continuously in the ETF\n19 Control room during Load-in Station and/or ETF processing operations through a series of level and\n20 pressure indicators, leak detection alarms, equipment failure alarms, and control panel readouts. In\n21 addition, the 200 Area ETF is inspected regularly for the presence of leaks or other off normal conditions\n22 wherever possible (in all areas that can be safely entered).\n23 In addition to detailed operating practices, structures and equipment are used at the 200 Area ETF to\n24 prevent contamination of water supplies. The structures and equipment designed to prevent\n25 contamination of water supplies are the same as the structures and equipment used to prevent run-off from\n26 dangerous and/or mixed waste handling areas.\n27 F.2.4 Equipment and Power Failure\n28 The storage function of the LERF is not affected by loss of power and a temporary loss of power would\n29 not pose a threat to the environment. Loss of electrical power would not cause the storage of the waste to\n30 be jeopardized. For process condensate transferred from the 242-A Evaporator, appropriate valving\n31 procedures are followed to ensure a smooth restart of the flow to the LERF in the event of a power failure\n32 at the 242-A Evaporator.\n33 The 200 Area ETF does not have a standby power source. Power to selected lighting, computers, and\n34 process controls is configured with an uninterruptible power supply. During partial loss of normal power,\n35 the effected pumps and subsystems will be shut down. Complete loss of power to the 200 Area ETF\n36 shuts down the entire 200 Area ETF except for the instruments in the control room connected to the\n37 uninterruptible power supply. Redundant pumps allow the process to continue to operate when only one\n38 component is out of service.\n39 When power at the 200 Area ETF is lost, the valves assume a fail-safe position to allow the process to\n40 remain in a safe shutdown mode until restoration of power. This action allows the operators to perform\n41 equipment surveys during shutdown and to confirm that there are no safety issues because the 200 Area\n42 ETF is shut down. Because a power failure would also shutoff flow into the 200 Area ETF, there will not\n43 be any increase in volume in any of the holdup basins, tanks, or other systems.\n44 A combination of reliability, redundancy, maintenance, and repair features are used in the 200 Area ETF\n45 equipment and systems to minimize random failure of equipment. For crucial systems such as ventilation\n46 filters, redundant trains are provided to mitigate equipment and system failure. Spare parts are\n47 maintained for essential production and safety equipment.\nAddendum F.7\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 F.2.5 Personnel Exposure\n2 At the LERF and 200 Area ETF, operating practices, structures, and equipment are used to prevent undue\n3 exposure of personnel to dangerous and/or mixed waste. All personnel handling waste use protective\n4 clothing and equipment. All operations are conducted so that exposure to dangerous and/or mixed waste\n5 and hazardous materials are maintained as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).\n6 Protective clothing and equipment are prescribed for personnel handling chemicals or dangerous waste.\n7 Before the start of any operation that could expose personnel to the risk of injury or illness, a review of\n8 the operation is performed to ensure that the nature of hazards that might be encountered is considered\n9 and appropriate protective gear is selected. Personnel are instructed to wear personal protective\n10 equipment in accordance with training, posting, and instructions.\n11 A change trailer at LERF is located between Basins 42 and 43. In addition, the change trailer has an\n12 operations office for working with procedures. Exits within the change trailer are clearly marked. A\n13 storage building is located within the perimeter fence, northwest of the basins. The LERF storage\n14 building also is provided with separate storage areas for clean and contaminated equipment. A\n15 decontamination shower and decontamination building is located at the 272-AW Building, approximately\n16 1.6 kilometers from the LERF or at the 200 Area ETF.\n17 The 200 Area ETF has eyewash stations and safety showers in convenient locations for use by personnel.\n18 The following structures and equipment were incorporated into the 200 Area ETF design to minimize\n19 personnel exposure.\n20 * Offices, control room, clean- and soiled-clothes storage areas, change rooms, and the lunchroom\n21 are situated to minimize casual exposure of personnel.\n22 * Building exit pathways are located to provide rapid egress in emergency evacuations.\n23 * Emergency lighting devices are located strategically throughout the 200 Area ETF.\n24 * Audio and/or visual alarms are provided for all room air samplers, area alarms, and liquid\n25 monitors. Visual readouts for these alarm systems are located in less contaminated areas to\n26 minimize exposure to personnel.\n27 * Areas for decontaminating and maintaining equipment are provided in contaminated areas to limit\n28 the spread of contamination to uncontaminated areas such as the control room.\n29 * Instrument interlock systems automatically return process operations to a safe condition if an\n30 unsafe condition should occur.\n31 * The 200 Area ETF ventilation systems are designed to provide airflow from uncontaminated\n32 zones to progressively more contaminated zones.\n33 Whenever possible, exposures to hazards are controlled by accepted engineering and/or administrative\n34 controls. Protective gear is used where effective engineering or administrative controls are not feasible.\n35 F.3 Prevention of Reaction of Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Waste\n36 Typically, aqueous waste managed at the LERF or 200 Area ETF does not display the characteristics of\n37 reactivity or ignitability. Any aqueous waste streams exhibiting these characteristics are blended or\n38 mixed at LERF to a concentration where the waste no longer exhibits reactive or ignitable characteristics.\n39 Incompatible aqueous waste is not expected to be stored or treated at the LERF or 200 Area ETF\n40 (Addendum B, Waste Analysis Plan). Therefore, the requirements of WAC 173-303-806(4)(a) are not\n41 applicable.\n42\nAddendum F.8\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nADDENDUM G\nPERSONNEL TRAINING\nAddendum G.1\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum G.2\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 ADDENDUMG\n2 PERSONNEL TRAINING\n3 Specific requirements for the Hanford Facility Personnel Training program are described in Permit\n4 Attachment 5.

CLOSURE PLAN\n2 This addendum describes the planned activities and performance standards for closing Liquid Effluent\n3 Retention Facility (LERF) and 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility (ETF).\n4 H.1 Closure Plan\n5 The LERF and 200 Area ETF will be closed by removal or decontamination with respect to dangerous\n6 waste contamination that resulted from operation asTtreatment, Storage, and Disposal (TSD) units, with\n7 closure of LERF occurring first. To facilitate closure, the LERF retention basins are being viewed as\n8 consisting of seven components: the covers and primary liner, drainage layer system/bentonite carpet\n9 liner, secondary liner, soil/bentonite, internal and/or external piping, ancillary equipment, and concrete\n10 basins. To facilitate closure of 200 Area ETF, the 200 Area ETF is being viewed as consisting of six\n11 components: tanks, internal and/or external piping, ancillary equipment, concrete floors/dikes/\n12 encasements, structures, and soil directly beneath the structure. It is anticipated that closure of LERF and\n13 200 Area ETF will begin after the projected 30-year active life of LERF and 200 Area ETF. If it is\n14 determined that closure by removal or decontamination is not possible, the closure plan will be modified\n15 to address required post closure activities.\n16 Uncontaminated structures will be left for future use or disassembled, dismantled, and removed for\n17 disposal. Uncontaminated equipment and structures could include aqueous makeup, HVAC and piping,\n18 steam condensate and cooling water piping, and the control room and office areas.\n19 Closure by removal or decontamination requires decontamination or removal and disposal of all\n20 dangerous waste, waste residues, contaminated equipment, soil, or other material established in\n21 accordance with the removal or decontamination closure performance standards of WAC 173-303-610(2).\n22 This and future closure plan revisions will provide for compliance with these performance standards.\n23 H.2 Closure Performance Standard\n24 Closure by removal or decontamination, as provided for in this plan based on the requirements of\n25 WAC 173-303-610(2), will eliminate future maintenance and will be protective of human health and the\n26 environment by removing or reducing chemical contamination at LERF and 200 Area ETF to levels that\n27 are below concern with respect to human health and the environment.\n28 This plan proposes to leave clean structures and equipment in place after closure for potential use in\n29 future operations. This need will be evaluated at the time of closure.\n30 H.2.1 Closure Standards for Metal Surfaces, Rubber, Tanks, and Concrete\n31 This closure plan proposes use of a 'clean debris surface' (defined in the following paragraph) as the clean\n32 closure performance standard for the metal surfaces, rubber (i.e., basin covers, liners, etc.), tanks, and\n33 concrete that will remain after closure. This approach is consistent with the Washington State\n34 Department of Ecology (Ecology) guidance (Publication #94-111, Ecology 2005) for achievement of\n35 clean closure. Additionally, adherence to this guidance ensures that all residues have been removed as\n36 required by WAC 173-303-640 for closure of the 200 Area ETF tank systems.\n37 The clean debris surface standard is verified visually.\n38 A clean debris surface means the surface, when viewed without magnification, shall be free of all\n39 visible contaminated soil and hazardous waste except residual staining from soil and waste\n40 consisting of light shadows, slight streaks, or minor discolorations and soil and waste in cracks,\n41 crevices, and pits may be present provided that such staining and waste and soil in cracks, crevices,\n42 and pits shall be limited to no more than 5% of each square inch ofsurface area (40 CFR 268.45).\n43 When a physical extraction method is used on concrete, the performance standard is based on removal of\n44 the contaminated layer of debris. The physical extraction performance standard for concrete is removal of\n45 0.6 centimeter of the surface layer and treatment to a clean debris surface. Inspections to verify\n46 achievement of a clean debris surface will be performed and documented.\nAddendum H.5\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI H.2.2 Closure Standards for Piping and Ancillary Equipment\n2 The internal and external piping of both LERF and 200 Area ETF that has contacted dangerous waste will\n3 be flushed and drained as part of closure. When practical, ancillary equipment, which has contacted\n4 dangerous waste will also be flushed and drained. For piping and ancillary equipment where the\n5 contaminated surfaces can be inspected, an inspection will be performed to see if the surfaces meets the\n6 clean debris surface standard in 40 CFR 268.45, incorporated by reference by WAC 173-303-140, and\n7 can be declared non-dangerous in accordance with WAC 173-303-071(3)(qq). If it is not possible to\n8 inspect the contaminated surfaces or meet the clean debris surface performance standard, the particular\n9 piping or ancillary equipment of concern will be removed, designated, and disposed of accordingly.\n10 Dangerous and/or mixed-waste materials generated during closure activities will be managed in\n11 accordance with WAC 173-303-610(5). Removal of any dangerous wastes or dangerous constituents\n12 during partial or final closure will be handled in accordance with applicable requirements of\n13 WAC 173-303-610(5).\n14 H.2.3 Closure Standards for Underlying Soils\n15 The LERF retention basins have a leachate collection system that channels the leachate to sumps at the\n16 bottom of the basins. The collected liquid is pumped back into the basins, thereby limiting fluid head on\n17 the secondary liner. The secondary liner is comprised of several protective layers, including a high-\n18 density polyethylene geomembrane and a soil/bentonite admixture. The soil below the LERF only could\n19 be contaminated if the layers of the secondary liner had failed. The primary liner and the drainage gravel,\n20 geotextile, and geonet between the primary and secondary liners cannot easily be decontaminated. The\n21 high-density polyethylene layer of the secondary liner also cannot be decontaminated. These materials\n22 will be removed and disposed according to the requirements of WAC 173-303-170. The soil/bentonite\n23 admixture will be sampled and analyzed for constituents of concerns according to the sampling and\n24 analysis plan developed prior to the time of closure. If the analytical results determine that the\n25 constituents of concern are at or below the levels in WAC 173-303-610(2)(b)(i), or background levels for\n26 Hanford soil if background is greater, the soil/bentonite admixture and the soil below LERF will be\n27 considered clean closed.\n28 Clean closure of soil under the 200 Area ETF will be accomplished by demonstrating that the coated\n29 concrete floor kept contaminants from reaching the soil. The coated concrete floor provided secondary\n30 containment for all the tanks and process piping. Unless inspections identify potential through-thickness\n31 cracks indicating containment failure and a subsequent potential for soil contamination from TSD unit\n32 operations, the soil will be considered clean closed. However, if inspections identify such cracks and\n33 there have been documented spills in the vicinity, potential soil contamination will be investigated. Soils\n34 will be sampled and analyzed for constituents of concern according to the sampling and analysis plan.\n35 The sampling and analysis plan will be prepared following the completion of a data quality objectives\n36 process in accordance with EPA/600/R-96/055 (QA/G-4), Data Quality Objectives Process, as amended.\n37 The data quality objectives process will be initiated prior to closure on a schedule to ensure timely closure\n38 of LERF. The sampling and analysis plan will be submitted to Ecology as part of a permit modification\n39 request meeting the requirements of WAC 173-303-830. The sampling and analysis plan will be prepared\n40 consistent with EPA/240/B-01/003 (EPA/QA R-5), EPA Requirements for Quality Assurance Project\n41 Plans, as amended.\n42 If the soil analytical results determine that the constituents of concern are at or below the levels in\n43 WAC 173-303-610(2)(b)(i), or background levels in the Hanford soil if background is greater, the soil\n44 will be considered clean closed. If the constituents of concern exceed background levels, the soil will be\n45 closed per the standards of WAC 173-303-610(2)(b).\n46 H.3 Closure Activities\n47 The LERF and 200 Area ETF were designed for a 30-year active life.\nAddendum H.6\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI At the time of closure, the closure plan will be modified as necessary to reflect current regulation or\n2 informational revisions in accordance with WAC 173-303-610(3)(b). If it is determined that clean\n3 closure is not possible, the closure plan will be modified to address required post closure activities.\n4 H.3.1 General Closure Activities\n5 The approach to LERF closure is to dispose of accumulated basin aqueous waste by processing the waste\n6 through 200 Area ETF. Primary basin liners, covers, drainage gravel, geonets, and secondary High\n7 Density Polyethylene (HDPE) liners will be removed, designated, and disposed of as described in\n8 Section G.3.4.1. Any remaining solids (residue) within the basins will also be removed, designated, and\n9 disposed of accordingly. Piping associated with LERF closure is intended to be decontaminated, drained,\n10 and inspected. Piping that meets the closure standard in Section G.2.2 will be left in place. Piping that\n11 does not meet the closure standard, or cannot be inspected, will be disposed of accordingly. Rinsate\n12 generated during decontamination also will be disposed of through 200 Area ETF. Sampling will assess\n13 whether contamination beneath the secondary HDPE liner has occurred. Contamination above\n14 background levels, if present, will be removed or decontaminated to meet the regulatory requirements of\n15 WAC 173-303-610(2)(b).\n16 The approach to 200 Area ETF closure is to process any aqueous waste through the effluent treatment\n17 system. Any waste, which cannot be treated at 200 Area ETF as the facility is being closed, will be\n18 transferred to other TSD units or off-site TSD facility. Piping will be rerouted and temporary piping\n19 installed to allow the isolation of tanks and ancillary equipment for draining, decontamination, and\n20 closure. Rerouted and temporary piping will be closed in the same manner as process piping. All\n21 structures and equipment will be decontaminated to the closure standards in Section G.2.2 or disposed.\n22 Piping associated with 200 Area ETF closure is intended to be decontaminated, drained, and inspected.\n23 Piping that meets the closure standard in Section G.2.2 will be left in place. Piping that does not meet the\n24 closure standard, or cannot be inspected, will be disposed of accordingly. Contamination, if present, will\n25 be managed in compliance with regulatory requirements.\n26 Equipment or materials used in performing closure activities will be decontaminated or disposed at a\n27 permitted facility.\n28 H.3.2 Constituents of Concern for Closure for the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility and\n29 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility\n30 Using the list of dangerous waste numbers in the Addendum A, Part A Form, constituents in the final\n31 delisting in 40 CFR 261 Appendix IX, sample results from wastes added to LERF and 200 Area ETF,\n32 process knowledge and the risk to human health and the environment, the constituents of concern for\n33 closure will be determined through the data quality objective process. Based on constituents in\n34 wastewater received at LERF from 2000 to 2006 which are present at five percent of their delisting levels\n35 or higher, the constituents of concern are:\n* Acetone * Carbon tetrachloride * Methyl ethyl ketone * Vanadium\n* Ammonia * Fluoride * n-Butyl alcohol\n* Barium * Lead * Total cresols\n* Chromium * Mercury * Tributyl phosphate\n36 Arsenic and beryllium are excluded because they are present in Hanford soils and may therefore give a\n37 false positive sample result. Constituents of concern vary in each basin. For example, ammonia may be\n38 present only in LERF Basin 42. The constituents of concern for each basin will be determined by process\n39 knowledge as part of the Data Quality Objectives process for the Sampling and Analysis Plan.\n40 H.3.3 Removing Dangerous Waste\n41 At the start of LERF closure, aqueous waste will be transferred sequentially from each basin to another\n42 LERF basin or to 200 Area ETF for treatment.\nAddendum H.7\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI At a pump rate of about 284 liters per minute, it will take approximately 60 days to empty a full basin.\n2 Basin covers will remain in place to prevent possible wind dispersion of waste until all basin waste has\n3 been removed.\n4 All of the aqueous waste inventory at the 200 Area ETF will be processed before closure. Any residue\n5 remaining in piping, equipment, or the LERF liner will be removed to an appropriate disposal unit. All\n6 containerized waste will be dispositioned. All secondary waste in containers will be transferred to an\n7 appropriate TSD unit.\n8 H.3.4 Decontaminating Structures, Equipment, and Soils\n9 This section discusses the activities necessary to implement a clean closure strategy for the LERF and\n10 200 Area ETF.\n11 H.3.4.1 Covers and Primary Liner\n12 The following steps will be performed to close each LERF basin cover and primary liner:\n13 * Wastewater will be removed from the basins and transferred to another LERF basin or to\n14 200 Area ETF. Additional pumps and piping may be installed to empty the basin as low as\n15 possible.\n16 * The basin cover will be cut into pieces and disposed in containers.\n17 * As much as practical of the remaining residue within the basins will be removed and transferred\n18 to containers, another LERF basin, or 200 Area ETF. Rinsing may be performed to facilitate\n19 removal.\n20 * The pipe risers, transfer pump, HDPE primary liner and bentonite carpet liner will be cut into\n21 pieces and disposed in containers.\n22 H.3.4.2 Drainage Layer and Secondary Liner\n23 The following steps will be performed to close each LERF basin drainage layer and secondary liner:\n24 * The drainage gravel, geotextile, and geonet will be cut into pieces, and disposed in containers.\n25 * As much as practical of the remaining residue on the secondary liner will be removed and\n26 transferred to containers, another LERF basin or 200 Area ETF. Rinsing may be performed to\n27 facilitate removal of residue.\n28 * The HDPE liner portion of the secondary liner will be visually inspected for physical damage.\n29 This will provide potential sampling locations to determine if the soil/bentonite below the HDPE\n30 liner may be clean closed.\n31 * The leachate pump, pump riser, and HDPE liner portion of the secondary liner will be removed,\n32 cut into pieces, and disposed in containers.\n33 * The soil/bentonite portion of the secondary liner will be visually inspected for signs of\n34 contamination. This will provide potential sampling locations to determine if the soil/bentonite\n35 may be clean closed.\n36 Assessment of contamination beneath the LERF's secondary liner will be performed within each basin by\n37 sampling the top surface of the 97-centimeter thick layer of soil/bentonite. Biased and random location\n38 selection will be used to increase the probability of detecting leachate contamination. Some sampling\n39 points will be chosen randomly, while others will be chosen where physical damage was noted during the\n40 inspection of the secondary HDPE liner and soil/bentonite layer, and in areas where the underlying\n41 material porosity and permeability and the hydraulic head would most likely drive any leachate. The\n42 leakage rate through the liner would increase toward the bottom of the liner as hydraulic head increases.\n43 Any leakage that did occur in the sloped sides could be expected to travel down slope through the\n44 geotextile between the primary and secondary liner until reaching the bottom of the liner.\nAddendum H.8\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Therefore, the most likely area of contamination would be the soil/bentonite in the leachate sump and at\n2 the bottom of the basin. Sampling and disposal objectives will be determined at the time prior to closure\n3 activities through the data quality objectives process. The sampling and analysis plan will be prepared\n4 following the completion of a data quality objectives process in accordance with EPA/600/R-96/055\n5 (QA/G-4) Data Quality Objectives Process, as amended.\n6 The data quality objectives process will be initiated prior to closure on a schedule to ensure timely closure\n7 of LERF. The sampling and analysis plan will be submitted to Ecology as part of a permit modification\n8 request meeting the requirements of WAC 173-303-830. The sampling and analysis plan will be prepared\n9 consistent with EPA/240/1B-0 1/003 (EPA/QA R-5), EPA Requirements for Quality Assurance Project\n10 Plans, as amended.\n11 Sampling of the soil/bentonite will be performed in accordance with the sampling methods allowed for in\n12 WAC 173-303-110(2). Special care will be needed in sampling for volatiles. To aid in ensuring sample\n13 integrity, the initial sampling of the soil/bentonite may proceed while the secondary HDPE liner is in the\n14 process of being removed.\n15 If no constituents of concern are found above soil closure performance standards (Section G.2.3), no\n16 further analysis will be done. If the initial sample analysis indicates liner leakage, additional samples\n17 from different depths and locations will be taken to determine the spatial extent of contamination. The\n18 soil/bentonite will be removed in the area around the contamination and placed in containers. If\n19 contamination is found to extend through the entire depth of the soil/bentonite layer, soil beneath the\n20 basin that is contaminated above closure performance standards will also be removed and placed in\n21 containers.\n22 H.3.4.3 Tanks\n23 The following general steps will be performed to close, each 200 Area ETF tank and ancillary equipment:\n24 * Wastewater and chemical additions to the tank will be isolated or rerouted to a downstream tank.\n25 * Piping and ancillary equipment associated with the tank will be flushed with water and drained to\n26 the tank being closed, to another tank, or to containers.\n27 * Wastewater will be removed from the tank and transferred to another tank. Additional pumps and\n28 piping may be installed to empty the tank as low as possible.\n29 * All remaining residue at the bottom of the tank will be removed and transferred to another tank or\n30 containers. Rinsing may be performed to facilitate removal of residue.\n31 * An initial visual inspection of the tank's interior and exterior surfaces will be performed to\n32 determine the type of flushing that will allow the tank to be clean closed, or whether the tank\n33 cannot be clean closed.\n34 * The tank's surfaces, piping and ancillary equipment will be cleaned by chemical or physical\n35 extraction techniques described in 40 CFR 268.45. Flush solution will be transferred to another\n36 tank or containers. All flush solution at the bottom of the tank will be removed before visual\n37 inspection.\n38 * The tank, piping, and ancillary equipment will be inspected visually for compliance with the\n39 performance standard in Sections H.2.1 and H.2.2.\n40 Closure will begin with the Load-In Station tanks, surge tank, and other tanks of the main treatment train.\n41 The secondary treatment train will operate as long as possible to reduce the volume of flush water\n42 requiring disposal. Condensate from the secondary treatment train will be routed to the main treatment\n43 train or the verification tanks for storage or treatment.\n44 After rinsing, the tanks will be inspected visually for compliance with the performance standard. Visual\n45 inspection might be made remotely using a camera or other device that allows verification of meeting the\n46 performance standard.\nAddendum H.9\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI If any areas are found not meeting the clean debris surface performance standard, these areas will be\n2 decontaminated in-place, or the contaminated portions will be removed, designated, and disposed\n3 accordingly. Per 40 CFR 268.45, Table 1 incorporated by reference at WAC 173-303-140, only removal\n4 of contaminants from the surface layer is necessary for metal surfaces.\n5 The outside of the tanks also will be inspected for compliance to the performance standard. Any areas\n6 found not to meet this performance standard will be decontaminated in-place, or the contaminated\n7 portions will be removed, designated, and disposed accordingly.\n8 Before using decontamination solutions on the outside of the tanks, the floor will be inspected for cracks\n9 or other openings that could provide a pathway to soil. This inspection will be performed as described in\n10 Section G.2.3 in conjunction with mapping of potential through-thickness cracks. Any such cracks will\n11 be mapped. The cracks will be sealed before beginning treatment or other engineered containment\n12 devices (e.g., portable catch basins, liners) will be used to collect and contain solutions.\n13 Decontamination residues will be collected, designated, and managed as appropriate. If it is not possible\n14 to meet the clean closure performance standard, contaminated portions of the tanks could be removed,\n15 designated, and disposed of accordingly. The inspections for a clean debris surface will be documented\n16 on an inspection record.\n17 H.3.4.4 Internal and External Piping and Ancillary Equipment\n18 The internal piping and ancillary equipment for both LERF and 200 Area ETF, which have contacted\n19 dangerous waste will be flushed and drained as part of closure. Any treatment media, such as filters,\n20 reverse osmosis membranes, ion exchange resins, will be removed from the ancillary equipment, and\n21 disposed of accordingly. Where the contaminated surfaces can be inspected, an inspection will be\n22 performed to see if the piping and ancillary equipment meet the clean debris surface standard in\n23 40 CFR 268.45 and can be declared non-dangerous. If it is not possible to meet the clean debris surface\n24 standard or the piping or ancillary equipment cannot be inspected, those portions of the piping and\n25 ancillary equipment will be removed, designated, and disposed of accordingly.\n26 External piping (transfer lines) associated with LERF and 200 Area ETF consist of below grade and\n27 above grade piping. Below grade, piping will be dispositioned at closure consistent with the practices for\n28 below grade piping in the 200 Areas at the time of closure consistent with the 200-IS-I operable unit\n29 decisions. Above grade piping will be dispositioned consistent with the provisions for internal piping.\n30 Rinsate from the LERF and 200 Area ETF external piping and LERF internal piping will be processed\n31 through 200 Area ETF. Dangerous and/or mixed-waste solutions and materials generated during closure\n32 activities, which cannot be treated at 200 Area ETF will be managed in accordance with\n33 WAC 173-303-610(5).\n34 H.3.4.5 Concrete\n35 At LERF, the concrete catch basins are located at the northeast corner of each retention basin, where inlet\n36 pipes, leachate risers, and transfer pipe risers emerge for the basin. The concrete catch basin is curbed,\n37 and coated with a chemical resistant epoxy sealant. The concrete catch basin is sloped so that any leaks\n38 or spills from the piping or connections will drain into the basin. At the 200 Area ETF, the coated\n39 concrete floor and berm provides secondary containment for all the tanks and process piping.\n40 Closure of concrete at LERF and 200 Area ETF will be performed after the associated tanks, piping,\n41 ancillary equipment, and structures have been closed. All concrete will be inspected visually and\n42 surveyed before any decontamination. The purpose of the inspection will be twofold: to identify and\n43 map any cracks in the concrete that might have allowed contaminants a pathway to the soil below\n44 (Section G.2.3.), and to identify areas that potentially are contaminated with dangerous waste or\n45 dangerous waste residues. The inspection standard will be a clean debris surface as defined in\n46 Section G.2.1. The inspection of the concrete for a clean debris surface will be documented on an\n47 inspection record. Those areas already meeting the standard can be clean closed as is.\nAddendum H.10\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 Those potentially contaminated areas will undergo decontamination to meet the clean closure standard of\n2 a clean debris surface. The concrete will be washed down; the rinsate collected, designated, and disposed\n3 of accordingly. The concrete will be reinspected for a clean debris surface. Concrete surfaces indicated\n4 by visual examination, as still being potentially contaminated will have the surface layer removed to a\n5 depth of 0.6 centimeter by scabbing or other approved methods. This will not threaten the environment,\n6 even if potential through-thickness cracks had been found during the inspection, because concrete\n7 decontamination (scabbing) will not employ liquid solutions that could enter cracks and because scabbing\n8 residues will be vacuumed away from cracks as, any residue is generated.\n9 Achievement of a clean debris surface will be documented on an inspection record. Decontamination\n10 residues will be collected, designated, and managed as appropriate.\n11 H.3.4.6 Structures\n12 If contaminated with either dangerous or mixed waste constituents, the 200 Area ETF structures will be\n13 decontaminated and/or disassembled, if necessary, packaged, and disposed of in accordance with existing\n14 land disposal restrictions (WAC 173-303-140).\n15 Closure steps could include the following activities.\n16 * Containerize (as necessary and practicable) and remove any remaining waste.\n17 * Review operating records for spillage incidents and visually inspect storage area surfaces for\n18 evidence of contamination or for cracks that could harbor contamination or allow the escape of\n19 decontamination solutions. Inspect storage area surfaces for visible evidence of contamination\n20 (e.g., discoloration, material degradation, wetness, and odor). If contamination is evident, the\n21 affected area(s) will be decontaminated.\n22 * Decontaminate 200 Area ETF walls and floors to minimize the potential for loose contamination\n23 and facilitate any required surveys and/or chemical field screening. The structures could be\n24 cleaned by water rinse or high-pressure, low-volume steam cleaning coupled with a detergent\n25 wash. After decontamination, the walls and floors will be compared to closure performance\n26 standards.\n27 * Collect rinsate and manage as dangerous waste for appropriate disposal.\n28 * Secure (lock) personnel entries into building and post doors with appropriate warning signs.\n29 H.3.4.7 Underlying Soils\n30 Clean closure of soil under LERF's secondary liner will be accomplished by demonstrating that the liners\n31 and leak detection system kept contaminants from reaching the soil. The secondary liner provided\n32 secondary containment for the LERF basins. Unless inspections identify potential leaks, punctures,\n33 cracks, or tears indicating containment failure and a subsequent potential for soil contamination from\n34 TSD unit operations, the soil will be considered clean closed. However, if inspections identify such leaks,\n35 punctures, etc., potential soil contamination will be investigated.\n36 Clean closure of soil under 200 Area ETF will be accomplished by demonstrating that the coated concrete\n37 floor kept contaminants from reaching the soil. The coated concrete floor and bermed area provided\n38 secondary containment for all the tanks and process piping. Unless inspections identify potential\n39 through-thickness cracks indicating containment failure and a subsequent potential for soil contamination\n40 from TSD unit operations, the soil will be considered clean closed. However, if inspections identify such\n41 cracks and there have been documented spills in the vicinity, potential soil contamination will be\n42 investigated.\n43 Where it is possible visually to inspect directly beneath the tanks, a visual inspection will be performed.\n44 Where it is not possible visually to inspect beneath the tanks, an evaluation of the tank integrity will be\n45 made. The condition of the tank will be evaluated to determine if there was any potential for leakage. If\n46 no cracks, severe corrosion, or evidence of leaks is observed, it will be reasoned that mixed or dangerous\n47 waste solutions could not have penetrated to the soil directly below the tank.\nAddendum H.11\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 External piping (transfer lines) between the 242-A Evaporator and LERF and 200 Area ETF are double\n2 lined with a leak detection system. If records indicate that no leaks from the primary piping occurred, the\n3 soil will be considered clean with respect to RCRA closure.\n4 Where there is evidence that contamination may have leaked into the soil below tanks, concrete, or the\n5 soil/bentonite layer at LERF, the contaminated tank, concrete, or soil/bentonite layer will be removed to\n6 allow the underlying soil to be sampled to determine the depth of the contamination.\n7 Soil that is contaminated above the closure performance standards in Section G.2.3 will be removed,\n8 placed in containers, and disposed accordingly.\n9 H.4 Maximum Waste Inventory\n10 The maximum waste inventory for LERF and 200 Area ETF is in Addendum A.\n11 H.5 Closure of Containers, Tanks, and Surface Impoundments\n12 The following sections cover closure of containers, closure of tanks, and closure of surface\n13 impoundments.\n14 H.5.1 Closure of Containers\n15 Containers at 200 Area ETF will be used to contain dangerous waste in the event of a spill, unexpected\n16 release, or equipment failure. Containers will be used to accumulate nonradioactive dangerous waste\n17 and/or mixed wastes. All containers will be emptied and treated prior to closure of 200 Area ETF. Any\n18 containers used to contain dangerous and/or mixed waste at the 200 Area ETF that is generated during the\n19 closure process and therefore cannot be treated at 200 Area ETF will be designated and shipped to an\n20 onsite TSD unit or off-site TSD facility. Containers of dangerous and/or mixed waste will not be left in\n21 the 200 Area ETF after closure.\n22 H.5.2 Closure of Tanks\n23 Clean closure of 200 Area ETF will consist of the removal and disposal of all dangerous waste and the\n24 decontamination and/or removal and disposal of equipment which does not meet the performance\n25 standards in Section G.2, including tanks. The 200 Area ETF was designed to incorporate removable\n26 components. This design facilitates closure by allowing complete removal of equipment, which does not\n27 meet the performance standards.\n28 H.5.3 Closure of Surface Impoundments\n29 At closure, all of LERF that received regulated waste will be closed in accordance with the requirements\n30 of this approved closure plan, which are intended to ensure compliance with the requirements of\n31 WAC 173-303-650(6)(a)(i). All equipment, structures, and other material associated with closure of\n32 LERF will be decontaminated or removed in accordance with WAC 173-303-610(2). All basin waste and\n33 decontamination rinsate will be transferred to 200 Area ETF. Sampling and testing will be conducted as\n34 described in Section G.3.4.2.\n35 H.6 Schedule for Closure\n36 Closure of LERF and 200 Area ETF is not anticipated to occur within the next 30 years. The actual year\n37 of closure will depend on the time required for current waste to be processed and what role the LERF and\n38 200 Area ETF will play in processing additional waste generated during future activities in the 200 Areas.\n39 Other factors affecting the year of closure include changes in operational requirements, lifetime extension\n40 upgrades, and unforeseen factors. When a definite closure date is established, notification of closure will\n41 be provided in accordance with Permit Condition II.J.1.\n42 The activities required to complete closure are planned to be accomplished within 180 days in accordance\n43 with WAC 173-303-610(4)(b). Should a modified schedule be necessary, a revised schedule will be\n44 proposed through the permit modification procedure in accordance with WAC 173-303-610(4)(b).\n45\nAddendum H.12\n N\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nADDENDUMI\nINSPECTION REQUIREMENTS\nAddendum I.i\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum I.ii\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1\n2 ADDENDUMI\n3 INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS\n4\n5\n6 TABLE OF CONTENTS\n7 I.

INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS\n2 1.1 Inspection Plan\n3 This addendum describes the method and schedule for inspections of the Liquid Effluent Retention\n4 Facility (LERF) and 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility (ETF). The purpose of inspections is to help\n5 ensure that situations do not exist that might cause or lead to the release of dangerous and/or mixed waste\n6 that could pose a threat to human health and the environment. Abnormal conditions identified by an\n7 inspection will be corrected on a schedule that prevents hazards to workers, the public, and the\n8 environment.\n9 1.1.1 General Inspection Requirements\n10 The content and frequency of inspections are described in this section. Inspection records are retained in\n11 the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF file, or other approved locations, in\n12 accordance with Permit Condition 11.1.1.\n13 In certain areas of the 200 Area ETF, many inspections are performed remotely to maintain as low as\n14 reasonably achievable (ALARA) exposure. Monitoring instruments are connected to audible alarms and\n15 visual indicators track alarm status. The monitoring system provides trending of selected monitoring\n16 data, graphics, and equipment summary displays.\n17 A preventive maintenance recall system is employed to direct preventive maintenance activities at the\n18 LERF and 200 Area ETF. Equipment requiring maintenance is checked as indicated by the maintenance\n19 history and the manufacturer's recommendations. The preventive maintenance of certain equipment\n20 might not be possible if the LERF or the 200 Area ETF is in an operational mode. Thus, the preventive\n21 maintenance could be performed slightly earlier or later than planned to minimize impact on operations.\n22 Instrumentation at 200 Area ETF is calibrated regularly to ensure accuracy and reliability. All process\n23 control instrumentation is calibrated on a schedule depending on previous calibration experience. An\n24 instrument calibration and recall system is employed to manage calibrations.\n25 1.1.1.1 Types of Problems\n26 Key components of the LERF inspection program include the following areas:\n27 * Structural integrity of the basins.\n28 * Catch basin secondary containment system integrity.\n29 * Evidence of release from basins.\n30 * Safety, communications, and emergency equipment.\n31 Key components of the 200 Area ETF inspection program include the following areas:\n32 * Condition of tanks and ancillary piping.\n33 * Condition of containers.\n34 * Condition of the process control equipment.\n35 * Condition of emergency equipment.\n36 * Condition of secondary containment.\n37 Table 1.1 and Table 1.2 provide a description of LERF and 200 Area ETF items to be inspected.\n38 1.1.1.2 Frequency of Inspections\n39 The frequency of inspections is based on the rate of possible deterioration of equipment and the\n40 probability of a threat to human health or the environment.\n41 The LERF and 200 Area ETF is inspected as indicated in Table 1.1 and Table 1.2.\nAddendum 1.5\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 1.1.2 Specific Process Inspection Requirements\n2 The following sections describe the specific process inspections performed at LERF and 200 Area ETF.\n3 1.1.2.1 Container Inspections\n4 Containers are used at the 200 Area ETF to store solidified secondary waste, such as the powder waste\n5 from the thin film dryer and maintenance and operations waste. When containers are being held in\n6 container storage areas, the following inspection schedule is maintained:\n7 * Daily visual inspection of container storage area for leaks, spills, accumulated liquids, and open\n8 or improperly sealed containers.\n9 * Weekly visual inspection of container labels to ensure labels are not obscured, removed, or\n10 otherwise unreadable.\n11 * Weekly visual inspection for deterioration of containers, containment systems, or cracks in\n12 protective coating or foundations caused by corrosion, mishandling, or other factors.\n13 Following the inspections, an inspection datasheet is signed and dated by the inspector and supervisor.\n14 1.1.2.2 Tank Inspections\n15 A description of the tank systems and ancillary equipment at the 200 Area ETF is given in Addendum C.\n16 Inspections and frequencies are given in Table 1.1 and Table 1.2. This section includes a brief discussion\n17 of the inspections.\n18 1.1.2.2.1 Overfill Protection\n19 Tanks that have the possibility of being overfilled have level instrumentation that alarms before the tanks\n20 reach overflow. High tank level alarms annunciate in the control room, allowing operating personnel to\n21 take immediate action to stop the vessels from overfilling. These alarms are monitored continuously in\n22 the control room during solution transfers.\n23 1.1.2.2.2 Visual Inspections\n24 Visual inspections of tanks and secondary containments are performed to check for leaks, signs of\n25 corrosion or damage, and malfunctioning equipment. Inspections are performed on tanks, secondary\n26 containment within the 200 Area ETF, surge tank, and verification tank, and associated secondary\n27 containment.\n28 1.1.2.2.3 Secondary Containment Leak Detectors\n29 The surge tank and verification tank secondary containment systems have sloped floors that drain\n30 solutions to sumps equipped with leak detectors that alarm in the control room. These alarms are\n31 monitored continuously in the control room during ETF processing operations and at least daily at other\n32 times. If an alarm is activated, further investigation is performed to determine if the source is a tank leak\n33 or other solution (i.e., precipitation).\n34 1.1.2.2.4 Integrity Assessments\n35 The initial integrity assessment was issued in 1995 (Addendum C). Consistent with the recommendations\n36 of the integrity assessment, a periodic integrity assessment program was developed for the 200 Area ETF\n37 tanks and is discussed in detail in Addendum C, Section C.4.2.\n38 1.1.2.2.5 Effluent Treatment Facility Piping\n39 The 200 Area ETF employs an extensive piping system. During inspections at the 200 Area ETF, any\n40 aboveground piping is inspected visually for signs of leakage and for general structural integrity. During\n41 the visual inspection, particular attention is paid to valves and fittings for signs of cracking, deformation,\n42 and leakage.\nAddendum 1.6\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 1.1.2.3 Surface Impoundments and Condition Assessment\n2 The following describes the surface impoundment inspections performed at LERF.\n3 1.1.2.3.1 Overtopping Control\n4 Under current operating conditions, 1.34 meters of freeboard is maintained at each LERF basin, which\n5 corresponds to a normal operating level of 6.1 meters, or 24.6 million liters. Level indicators at each\n6 basin are monitored to confirm that this level is not exceeded.\n7 Before an aqueous waste is transferred into a basin, administrative controls are implemented to ensure\n8 overtopping will not occur during the transfer. The volume of feed to be transferred is compared to the\n9 available volume in the receiving basin. The transfer is not initiated unless there is sufficient volume\n10 available in the receiving basin or a cut-off level is established. The transfer into the basin would be\n11 stopped when this cut-off level is reached.\n12 The LERF basins also are provided with floating very low-density polyethylene covers that are designed\n13 and constructed to prevent overtopping by the introduction of precipitation and dust into the basins.\n14 Overtopping and flow control also are discussed in Addendum C.\n15 1.1.2.3.2 Impoundment Contents\n16 The LERF basins are inspected weekly to assess whether the contents are escaping from a basin. Level\n17 indicators are inspected weekly to check for unaccountable change in the level of the basins.\n18 1.1.2.3.3 Leak Detection\n19 The leachate detection, collection, and removal system is described in Addendum C. The leachate\n20 collection sump pump is activated when the liquid level in the leachate sump reaches a preset level. A\n21 flow meter/totalizer measures the amount of leachate removed. In addition, the timer on the leachate\n22 pump tracks the cumulative pump run time. The leak rate through the primary liner can be determined\n23 using one of two methods: 1) measured as the leachate flow meter/totalizer readings or pump operating\n24 time readings (flow meters/totalizers are located on the outflow line from the collection sumps in the\n25 bottom of the LERF basins) or 2) calculated using the pump operating time readings multiplied by the\n26 pump flow rate (the pump runs at a constant flow rate). Calculations using either method are sufficient for\n27 compliance. If either the flow meter/ totalizer or pump operating time system is not functioning, this is\n28 identified as an abnormal condition (see I.1).The LERF employs a double walled transfer piping between\n29 242-A Evaporator and LERF and between LERF and 200 Area ETF. The WAC 173-303-650 regulations\n30 do not require a discussion of piping for surface impoundments. However, for the purposes of\n31 comprehensive coverage of the LERF, inspections and integrity assessments are performed on the piping\n32 system. Aqueous waste (e.g., process condensate) is transferred from the 242-A Evaporator to the LERF\n33 via a buried pipeline. Likewise, aqueous waste is transferred to the 200 Area ETF via buried pipelines.\n34 At the LERF dikes, aboveground piping serves to transfer waste from one basin to another.\n35 The buried pipelines normally are continuously monitored during transfers by a leak detection system\n36 (Addendum C). The alarms on the leak detection system signal to the 200 Area ETF control room, which\n37 is monitored continuously during waste transfers and daily when no waste is transferring. .As an\n38 alternative to continuous leak detection, the transfer lines can be inspected daily during transfers by\n39 opening the secondary containment drain lines at the LERF catch basins (for 242-A Evaporator transfers\n40 to LERF) and the surge tank (for LERF transfers to 200 Area ETF) to inspect for leakage. During the\n41 routine inspections at LERF, the aboveground piping system is inspected for signs of leakage and for\n42 general structural integrity. During the visual inspection, particular attention is paid to valves and fittings\n43 for signs of cracking, deformation, and leakage.\n44 1.1.2.3.4 Dike Erosion\n45 The LERF basins and dikes are visually inspected weekly and after significant precipitation events for\n46 run-on, run-off, cover integrity, erosion problems, or other signs of deterioration in the dikes from\n47 precipitation, wind, burrowing mammals, or vegetation.\nAddendum 1.7\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 1.1.2.3.5 Structural Integrity\n2 A written certification attesting to the structural integrity of the basin dikes, signed by a qualified,\n3 registered professional engineer, is provided in Addendum C.\n4 1.1.2.3.6 Container Inspection\n5 Normal operation of the LERF does not involve the storage of dangerous waste in containers. Therefore,\n6 the inspection requirements of this section normally are not applicable to the LERF. Any containerized\n7 dangerous waste generated at LERF will be brought to the 200 Area ETF and managed in accordance\n8 with WAC 173-303-630 and is discussed in Section 1.1.3.\n9 1.1.3 Inspection Log\n10 Observations made and deficiencies noted during an inspection are recorded on inspection log sheets (also\n11 called turnover sheets). On completion, the log sheet includes the inspector's printed name, signature,\n12 date, and time; the log sheet is submitted for review and approval by LERF and200 Area ETF\n13 management or their designee, as required by operating procedures. Once approved, the log sheet is kept\n14 in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF files. Inspection records are retained\n15 in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, LERF and 200 Area ETF files, or other approved locations, in\n16 accordance with Permit Condition 11.1.1. The inspection records are used to help determine any necessary\n17 corrective actions. Problems identified during the inspections are prioritized and addressed in a timely\n18 fashion to mitigate health risks to workers, maintain integrity of the TSD units, and prevent hazards to\n19 public health and the environment.\n20 If while performing an inspection, a leak or spill is discovered, facility operations responds per the\n21 emergency response procedures action is taken to stop the leak and determine the cause. The waste is\n22 removed from the secondary containment in a timely manner that prevents harm to human health and the\n23 environment.\n24 1.1.4 Storage of Ignitable or Reactive Wastes\n25 The LERF could receive an aqueous waste that is designated reactive or ignitable. Any aqueous waste\n26 exhibiting these characteristics is managed (e.g., through blending in LERF) such that the waste no longer\n27 exhibits the reactive or ignitable characteristics.\n28 Though unlikely, the 200 Area ETF secondary wastes might have the characteristics of being reactive or\n29 ignitable. A qualified inspector performs annual fire inspections of the 200 Area ETF using a checklist\n30 developed specifically for facilities that handle dangerous and/or mixed waste.\n31\nAddendum 1.8\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nTable 1.1.

No additional description of actions are required if at the site level. If other\n6 credible scenarios exist or if emergency procedures at the unit are different, the description of actions contained in the building\n7 emergency plan will be used during an event by a building emergency director.\n8 3Sections J.1, J.2 through J.2.5, and J.3 of the building emergency plan are those sections subject to the Class 2 \"Changes in\n9 emergency procedures (i.e., spill or release response procedures)\" described in WAC 173-303-830, Appendix I, Section B.6.a.\n10 4This requirement only applies to TSD units, which receive shipment of dangerous or mixed waste defined as off-site shipments\n11 in accordance with WAC 173-303.\n12 'Emergency Coordinator names and home telephone numbers are maintained separate from any contingency plan document, on\n13 file in accordance with Permit Condition II.A.4 and are updated, at a minimum, monthly.\n14 6The Hanford Facility (site wide) signals are provided in this document. No unit/building signal information is required unless\n15 unique devices are used at the unit/building.\n16 'An evacuation route for the TSD unit must be provided. Evacuation routes for occupied buildings surrounding the TSD unit are\n17 provided through information boards posted within buildings.\nAddendum J.6\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 J.1 Building Evacuation Routing\n2 Figures J.1 and J.2 provide identification of the primary and secondary staging areas and a general layout\n3 of the 2025E and ETF/LERF. Alternate evacuation routes will be used on a case-by-case basis based on\n4 meteorological conditions at the time of the event.\n5 J.2 Building Emergency Director\n6 Emergency response will be directed by the Building Emergency Director (BED) until the Incident\n7 Commander (IC) arrives. The Incident Command System and staff with supporting on-call personnel\n8 fulfill the responsibilities of the Emergency Coordinator as discussed in WAC 173-303-360.\n9 During events, ETF/LERF personnel perform response duties under the direction of the BED. The\n10 Incident Command Post (ICP) is managed by the senior Hanford Fire Department official, unless the\n11 event is determined to be primarily a security event, in which case the Hanford Fire Department and\n12 Hanford Patrol will operate under a unified command system with Hanford Patrol making all decisions\n13 pertaining to security. These individuals are designated as the IC and as such, have the authority to\n14 request and obtain any resources necessary for protecting people and the environment. The BED\n15 becomes a member of the ICP and functions under the direction of the IC. In this role, the BED continues\n16 to manage and direct LERF/ETF operations.\n17 A listing of BEDs by title, work location, and work telephone numbers is contained in Section J.7 of this\n18 plan. The BED is on the premises or is available through an \"on-call\" list 24 hours a day. Names and\n19 home telephone numbers of the BEDs are available from the Patrol Operations Center (POC) in\n20 accordance with Permit Condition II.A.4.\n21 J.3 Implementation of the Plan\n22 In accordance with WAC 173-303-360(2)(b) the BED ensures that trained personnel identify the\n23 character, source, amount, and areal extent of the release, fire, or explosion to the extent possible.\n24 Identification of waste can be made by activities that can include, but are not limited to, visual inspection\n25 of involved containers, sampling activities in the field, reference to inventory records, or by consulting\n26 with facility personnel. Samples of materials involved in an emergency might be taken by qualified\n27 personnel and analyzed as appropriate. These activities must be performed with a sense of immediacy\n28 and shall include available information.\n29 The BED shall use the following guidelines to determine if an event has met the requirements of\n30 WAC 173-303-360(2)(d):\n31 1. The event involved an unplanned spill, release, fire, or explosion,\n32 AND\n33 2.a The unplanned spill or release involved a dangerous waste, or the material involved became a\n34 dangerous waste as a result of the event (e.g., product that is not recoverable.), or\n35 2.b The unplanned fire or explosion occurred at the ETF/LERF or transportation activity subject\n36 to RCRA contingency planning requirements,\n37 AND\n38 3. Time urgent response from an emergency services organization was required to mitigate the\n39 event or a threat to human health or the environment exists.\n40 As soon as possible, after stabilizing event conditions, the BED shall determine, in consultation with the\n41 site contractor environmental single point-of-contact, if notification to the Washington State Department\n42 of Ecology (Ecology) is needed to meet WAC 173-303-360(2)(d) reporting requirements. If all of the\n43 conditions under 1, 2, and 3 are met, notifications are to be made to Ecology. Additional information is\n44 found in Permit Attachment 4, Hanford Emergency Management Plan, (DOE/RL-94-02), Section 4.2.\n45\nAddendum J.7\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI If review of all available information does not yield a definitive assessment of the danger posed by the\n2 incident, a worst-case condition will be presumed and appropriate protective actions and notifications will\n3 be initiated. The BED is responsible for initiating any protective actions based on their best judgment of\n4 the incident.\n5 The BED must assess each incident to determine the response necessary to protect the personnel, facility,\n6 and the environment. If assistance from Hanford Patrol, Hanford Fire Department, or ambulance units is\n7 required, the Hanford Emergency Response Number (911 from site office phones/373-091 1 from cellular\n8 phones) must be used to contact the POC and request the desired assistance. To request other resources\n9 or assistance from outside the ETF/LERF, the POC business number is 373-3800.\n10 J.3.1 Protective Actions Responses\n11 Protective action responses are discussed in the following sections. The steps identified in the following\n12 description of actions do not have to be performed in sequence because of the unanticipated sequence of\n13 incident events.\n14 J.3.1.1 Evacuation\n15 The objective of a facility evacuation order is to limit personnel exposure to hazardous materials or\n16 dangerous/mixed waste by increasing the distance between personnel and the hazard. The scope of the\n17 evacuation includes evacuation of the facility because of an event at the facility as well as evacuation of\n18 the facility in response to a site evacuation order. Evacuation will be directed by the BED when\n19 conditions warrant and will apply to all personnel not actively involved in the event response or\n20 emergency plan related activities.\n21 The BED will initiate the evacuation by directing an announcement be made to evacuate along with the\n22 evacuation location over a public address system, facility radios, and, as conditions warrant, by activating\n23 the 200 Area site evacuation alarms by calling the POC using 911 from site office phones/373-09 11 from\n24 cellular phones. Personnel proceed to a predetermined staging area (shown in Figure J.2), or other safe\n25 upwind location, as determined by the BED. The BED will determine the operating configuration of the\n26 facility and identify any additional protective actions to limit personnel exposure to the hazard.\n27 Emergency organization personnel or assigned operations personnel will conduct a sweep of occupied\n28 buildings to ensure that all non-essential personnel and visitors have evacuated. For an immediate\n29 evacuation, accountability will be performed at the staging area. The BED will assign personnel as\n30 accountability aides and staging managers with the responsibility to ensure that evacuation actions are\n31 taken at all occupied buildings at the ETF/LERF. All implementing actions executed by the\n32 aides/managers are directed by the emergency response procedures. When evacuation actions are\n33 complete, the aides/managers will provide a status report to the BED. The BED will provide status to the\n34 IC.\n35\nAddendum J.8\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nMain Floor\nAreaOnmaStoage rea 50% 2 2Surge\nTank\n90 0 [O] a hoo\ngo0\n2nd Floor\n1 Figure J.1 Evacuation Routes from 2025E\n2\nAddendum J.9\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nFigure J.2.

Evacuation might not be\n4 practical or appropriate because of extreme weather conditions or the material release might limit the\n5 ability to evacuate safely personnel.\n6 The BED will initiate the take cover by directing an announcement be made over the public address\n7 system, facility radios, and, as conditions warrant, by activating the 200 Area site take cover alarms by\n8 calling the POC using 911 from site office phones/373-091 I from cellular phones). Actions to complete a\n9 facility take-cover will be directed by the emergency response procedure. Protective actions associated\n10 with operations include configuring, or shutting down, the ventilation systems. Determination of\n11 additional take cover response is based on plant operating configuration, weather conditions, amount and\n12 duration of release, and other conditions, as applicable to the event and associated hazard. As a\n13 minimum, personnel exposure to the hazard will be minimized. The BED will assign personnel as\n14 accountability aides with responsibility to ensure that take-cover actions are taken at all occupied\n15 buildings at the ETF complex. All implementing actions executed by the aides/managers are directed by\n16 the emergency response procedure. When take cover actions are complete, the aides/manager will\n17 provide the BED with a status report.\n18 J.3.2 Response to Facility Operations Emergencies\n19 Depending on the severity of the following events, the BED reviews the site wide procedures and\n20 ETF/LERF emergency response procedure(s) and, as required, categorizes and/or classifies the event. If\n21 necessary, the BED initiates area protective actions and Hanford Site Emergency Response Organization\n22 activation. The steps identified in the following description of actions do not have to be performed in\n23 sequence because of the unanticipated sequence of incident events.\n24 J.3.2.1 Loss of Utilities\n25 A case-by-case evaluation is required for each event to determine loss of utility impacts. When a BED\n26 determines a loss of utility impact, actions are taken to ensure dangerous and/or mixed waste is being\n27 properly managed, to the extent possible given event circumstances. As necessary, the BED will stop\n28 operations and take appropriate actions until the utility is restored.\n29 J.3.2.2 Major Process Disruption/Loss of Plant Control\n30 The hazards assessment has determined that this occurrence does not pose significant risk to human\n31 health or the environment.\n32 J.3.2.3 Pressure Release\n33 The hazards assessment has determined that a pressure release does not pose significant risk to human\n34 health or the environment. Hazardous material release and dangerous/mixed waste releases are addressed\n35 in Section J.2.5.\n36 J.3.2.4 Fire andlor Explosion\n37 In the event, of a fire, the discoverer activates a fire alarm (pull box); calls 911 from site office\n38 phones/373-0911 from cellular phones or verifies that the Hanford Emergency Response Number has\n39 been called. Automatic initiation of a fire alarm (through the smoke detectors, and sprinkler systems) is\n40 also possible.\n41 * Unless otherwise instructed, personnel shall evacuate the area/building by the nearest safe exit\n42 and proceed to the designated staging area for accountability.\n43 * On actuation of the fire alarm, ONLY if time permits, personnel should shut down equipment,\n44 secure waste, and lock up classified materials (or hand carry them out). The alarm automatically\n45 signals the Hanford Fire Department.\nAddendum J. 11\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\n1 * The BED proceeds directly to the ICP, obtains all necessary information pertaining to the\n2 incident, and sends a representative to meet Hanford Fire Department.\n3 * The BED provides a formal turnover to the IC when the IC arrives at the ICP.\n4 * The BED informs the Hanford Site Emergency Response Organization as to the extent of the\n5 emergency (including estimates of dangerous waste and mixed waste quantities released to the\n6 environment).\n7 * If operations are stopped in response to the fire, the BED ensures that systems are monitored for\n8 leaks, pressure buildup, gas generation, and ruptures.\n9 * Hanford Fire Department firefighters extinguish the fire as necessary.\n10 Note: Following a fire and/or explosion, WAC 173-303-640(7) will be addressed for the ETF regarding\n11 fitness for use.\n12 J.3.2.5 Hazardous Material, Dangerous andlor Mixed Waste Spill\n13 Spills can result from many sources including process leaks, container spills or leaks, damaged packages\n14 or shipments, or personnel error. Spills of mixed waste are complicated by the need to deal with the extra\n15 hazards posed by the presence of Atomic Energy Act materials. These controls include containment\n16 berms, dedicated spill control sumps, remote gauges, and level indicators as well as spray shields on\n17 chemical pipe flanges. WRPS procedures provide alarm response and maintenance actions for leak\n18 detection equipment, surveillance of possible leak locations, and response actions for detected spills.\n19 * The discoverer notifies BED and initiates SWIMS response:\n20 Stops work\n21 Warns others in the vicinity\n22 Isolates the area\n23 Minimizes the exposure to the hazards\n24 Requests the BED Secure ventilation\n25 * If Operations are stopped, the BED ensures that the plant is put in a safe shutdown configuration.\n26 * The BED determines if emergency conditions exist requiring response from the Hanford Fire\n27 Department based on classification of the spill and injured personnel, and evaluates need to\n28 perform additional protective actions.\n29 * If the Hanford Fire Department resources are not needed, the spill is mitigated with resources\n30 identified in Section J.4 of this plan and proper notifications are made.\n31 * If the Hanford Fire Department resources are needed, the BED calls 911 from site office\n32 phones/373-091 I from cellular phones.\n33 * The BED sends a representative to meet the Hanford Fire Department.\n34 * The BED provides a formal turnover to the IC when the IC arrives at the ICP.\n35 * The BED informs the Hanford Site Emergency Response Organization as to the extent of the\n36 emergency (including estimates of dangerous waste and mixed waste quantities released to the\n37 environment).\n38 * If operations are stopped in response to the spill, the BED ensures that systems are monitored for\n39 leaks, pressure buildup, gas generation, and ruptures.\n40 * Hanford Fire Department stabilizes the spill.\n41 Note: For response to leaks or spills and disposition of leaking or unfit-for-use tank systems, refer to\n42 WAC 173-303-640(7).\nAddendum J.12\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI J.3.2.5.1 Damaged, or Unacceptable Shipments\n2 During the course of receiving an onsite transfer of dangerous and/or mixed waste at ETF/LERF an\n3 unanticipated event could be discovered resulting in a conformance issue concerning the waste.\n4 Damaged or unacceptable shipments resulting from onsite transfers are not subject to WAC 173-303-370\n5 however conformance issues must be resolved in order to maintain proper records.\n6 The following actions are taken to resolve the conformance issue:\n7 * Operations management is notified of the damaged or unacceptable waste to be received.\n8 * If the conformance issue results in a spill or release, actions described in Section J.3.2.5 are taken.\n9 * The generating organization is notified of the conformance issue.\n10 An operations representative, in conjunction with the generating organization, determines the course of\n11 action to resolve the conformance issue.\n12 J.3.3 Prevention of Recurrence or Spread of Fires, Explosions, or Releases\n13 The BED, as part of the ICP, takes the steps necessary to ensure that a secondary release, fire, or\n14 explosion does not occur. The BED will take measures, where applicable, to stop processes and\n15 operations, collect and contain released waste, and remove or isolate containers. The BED also monitors\n16 for leaks, pressure buildups, gas generation, or ruptures in valves, pipes, or other equipment, whenever\n17 this is appropriate.\n18 J.3.4 Incident Recovery and Restart of Operations\n19 A recovery plan is developed when necessary in accordance with Permit Attachment 4, Hanford\n20 Emergency Management Plan, (DOE/RL-94-02), Section 9.2. A recovery plan is needed following an\n21 event where further risk could be introduced to personnel, the ETF/LERF, or the environment through\n22 recovery action and/or to maximize the preservation of evidence.\n23 If this plan was implemented according to Section J.3 of this plan, Ecology is notified before operations\n24 can resume. The Permit Attachment 4, Hanford Emergency Management Plan, (DOE/RL-94-02),\n25 Section 5.1 discusses different reports to outside agencies. This notification is in addition to those\n26 required reports and includes the following statements:\n27 * There are no incompatibility issues with the waste and released materials from the incident.\n28 * All the equipment has been cleaned, fit for its intended use, and placed back into service.\n29 The notification required by WAC 173-303-360(2)0) may be made via telephone conference. Additional\n30 information that Ecology requests regarding these restart conditions will be included in the required\n31 15-day report identified in Section J.5 of this plan.\n32 For emergencies not involving activation of the Hanford EOC, the BED ensures that conditions are\n33 restored to normal before operations are resumed. If the Hanford Site Emergency Response Organization\n34 was activated and the emergency phase is complete, a special recovery organization could be appointed at\n35 the discretion of RL to restore conditions to normal. This process is detailed in RL and contractor\n36 emergency procedures. The makeup of this organization depends on the extent of the damage and the\n37 effects. The onsite recovery organization will be appointed by the appropriate contractor's management.\n38 J.3.5 Incompatible Waste\n39 After an event, the BED or the onsite recovery organization ensures that no waste that might be\n40 incompatible with the released material is treated, stored, and/or disposed of until cleanup is completed.\n41 Cleanup actions are taken by ETF/LERF personnel or other assigned personnel. Permit Attachment 4,\n42 Hanford Emergency Management Plan, (DOE/RL-94-02), Section 9.2.3, describes actions to be taken.\nAddendum J.13\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nI Waste from cleanup activities is designated and managed as newly generated waste. A field check for\n2 compatibility before storage is performed as necessary. Incompatible wastes are not placed in the same\n3 container. Containers of waste are placed in storage areas appropriate for their compatibility class.\n4 If incompatibility of wastes was a factor in the incident, the BED or the onsite recovery organization\n5 ensures that the cause is corrected.\n6 J.3.6 Post Emergency Equipment Maintenance and Decontamination\n7 All equipment used during an incident is decontaminated (if practicable) or disposed of as spill debris.\n8 Decontaminated equipment is checked for proper operation before storage for subsequent use.\n9 Consumable and disposed materials are restocked. Fire extinguishers are replaced.\n10 The BED ensures that all equipment is cleaned and fit for its intended use before operations are resumed.\n11 Depleted stocks of neutralizing and absorbing materials are replenished; protective clothing is cleaned or\n12 disposed of and restocked, etc.\n13 J.4 Emergency Equipment\n14 Emergency resources and equipment for the ETF/LERF are presented in this section.\n15 J.4.1 Fixed Emergency Equipment\nTYPE LOCATION CAPABILITY\nSafety shower/ eye wash stations 1 -2025E Rm 122 Decon Station Assist in flushing chemicals/\n(ETF only) 1 -2025E South Wall of Process Area materials from the body and/ or\n1- 2025E Rm 131 eyes and face of personnel.\n1- 2025E Rm 134\n1 -Outside south 2025E near acid/\ncaustic tanks\n1 -Outside at Load-in station\nI- 2025E Rm 112 Laboratory\nWet pipe sprinkler Throughout the ETF except those areas Assist in the control of a fire.\n(ETF only) protected by preactive sprinklers\nPreactive sprinkler (ETF only) Control room, communications room, Assist in the control of a fire.\nelectrical equipment room Maintained dry to prevent\naccidental damage to equipment\nFire alarm pull boxes All high traffic areas in operations Activate the local fire alarm\n(ETF only) administration and support areas, truck\nbay, and process area\nE-lights Throughout ETF 1 hour temporary lighting\n16 J.4.2 Portable Emergency Equipment\nTYPE LOCATION CAPABILITY\nFire extinguisher Throughout ETF Fire suppression for Class A, B, and\nABC type (Administrative/Support areas), LERF, and C fires\nTEDF\nFire extinguisher Throughout ETF Fire suppression for Class B and C\nBC type (process area and electrical room) fires\nPortable safety showers As needed for special evolutions and Assist in flushing chemicals/\nand Eye Wash Stations maintenance materials from the body and/or eyes\nand face of personnel.\nAddendum J.14\n WA7890008967\nLERF and 200 Area ETF\nJ.4.3 Communications Equipment/Warning Systems\nTYPE LOCATION CAPABILITY\nFire alarms Corridors, locker rooms, process area, drum Audible throughout ETF\n(ETF only) storage, and truck bay\nTake cover/evacuation Throughout the ETF Audible outside buildings and inside\nadministrative buildings\nPublic address system Throughout the ETF Audible throughout ETF\n(ETF Only)\nPortable radios Operations and maintenance personnel Communication to control room\nTelephone ETF- control room, 2025E, 2025EA offices, Internal and external\nMO-148, MO-269, MO-251, communications.

Nature of Business (provide a brief description that includes both dangerous waste and non-dangerous\nwaste areas and activities)\nSectionXIV\n*The estimated annual quantity of waste listed represents the maximum quantity of waste placed in either\ntunnel in a given year.\nProcess Code X99 is being used to designate the PUREX Storage Tunnels as a Miscellaneous Unit per\nWAC 173-303-680. The PUREX Storage Tunnels, a miscellaneous unit (X99), are used for storage of mixed\nwaste subject to the requirements of WAC 173-303-680. The two tunnels store waste from the PUREX\nPlant and other onsite sources. Since being placed into service, mixed waste has been stored in the\ntunnels on railcars. Not all material stored in the tunnels contains mixed waste.\nThe construction of Tunnel Number 1 was completed in 1956. The tunnel is approximately 5.8 meters\n(19 feet) wide by 6.7 meters (22 feet) high by 109 meters (358 feet) long and provides storage space for\neight railcars. Between June 1960 and January 1965, all eight railcar positions were filled and the tunnel\nsubsequently was sealed. The combined volume of the equipment stored on the eight railcars presently in\nTunnel Number 1 is approximately 596 cubic meters (780 cubic yards). The maximum process design\ncapacity for storage in Tunnel Number 1 is approximately 4,129 cubic meters (5,400 cubic yards).\nThe construction of Tunnel Number 2 was completed in 1964. Tunnel Number 2 is approximately\n5.8 meters (19 feet) wide by 6.7 meters (22 feet) high by 514 meters (1,686 feet) long and provides storage\nspace for 40 railcars. The first railcar was placed in Tunnel Number 2 in December 1967 and as of\nAugust 2000, 28 railcars have been placed in the tunnel. The combined volume of equipment stored on\nthe 28 railcars presently in Tunnel Number 2 is approximately 2,204 cubic meters (2,883 cubic yards). The\nmaximum process design capacity for storage in Tunnel Number 2 is approximately 19,878 cubic meters\n(26,000 cubic yards).\nThe waste stored in the tunnels could include barium(D005), cadmium (D006), chromium (D007), lead\n(D008), mercury (D009), selenium (DO10), silver (3011), and light mineral oil (WTO2, state-only, toxic,\ndangerous waste) contained in oil absorption material. The silver is predominately in the form of salts\nand is considered ignitable (DO01) because of the presence of silver nitrate (AgNO 3). Cadmium also could\nbe considered state-only, toxic, dangerous waste (WTO2).\nChapter 1.5\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n2 EXAMPLE FOR COMPLETING ITEMS XII and XIII (shown in lines numbered X-1, X-2, and X-3 below): A facility has\n3 two storage tanks that hold 1200 gallons and 400 gallons respectively. There is also treatment in tanks at 20 gallons/hr.\n4 Finally, a one-quarter acre area that is two meters deep will undergo in situ vitrification.\n5\nSection XII.

Description of Dangerous Wastes\nExample for completing this section: A facility will receive three non-listed wastes, then store and treat them on-site.\nTwo wastes are corrosive only, with the facility receiving and storing the wastes in containers. There will be about 200\npounds per year of each of these two wastes, which will be neutralized in a tank. The other waste is corrosive and\nignitable and will be neutralized then blended into hazardous waste fuel. There will be about 100 pounds per year of that\nwaste, which will be received in bulk and put into tanks.\nA. Dangeros B. Estimated C. Unit of D.

Waste in the tunnels is stored and managed as\n4 mixed waste. The PUREX Storage Tunnels provide the necessary shielding for the protection of\n5 employees and the environment from mixed waste.\n6 3.1 Chemical, Biological, and Physical Analyses\n7 Regulated material presently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels contains the following dangerous\n8 waste:\n9 * Lead\n10 * Mercury\n11 * Silver and silver salts\n12 * Chromium\n13 * Cadmium\n14 * Barium\n15 * Mineral oil\n16 In general, dangerous waste is either attached to, contained within, or actually is material removed from\n17 the PUREX Plant and other onsite sources. Changes in dangerous waste stored is updated annually in the\n18 annual dangerous waste report submitted to Ecology. Future storage of barium and selenium may occur\n19 in Tunnel Number 2. The PUREX Storage Tunnels are permitted as a miscellaneous unit under\n20 WAC 173-303-680 because the tunnels are not a typical containerized storage unit. That is, the bulk of\n21 the material stored in the tunnels is not placed in a container; rather, this material is placed on a portable\n22 device (railcar) used as a storage platform. The mixed waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is\n23 encased or contained within carbon or stainless steel plate, pipe, or vessels that meet the\n24 WAC 173-303-040 definition of container. Therefore, the mixed waste normally is not exposed to the\n25 tunnel environment.\n26 The only free-liquid dangerous waste stored in the tunnels is elemental mercury. The mercury is\n27 contained within thick-walled (0.8-centimeter) thermowells. The amount of mercury per thermowell is\n28 less than 1.7 liters.\n29 Other liquid containers, such as large discarded process tanks, are stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n30 These containers are 'empty' [per WAC 173-303-160(2)(a)]. In the future, containers will be flushed and\n31 the final rinsate sampled and analyzed to verify that the residual heel is not a dangerous waste.\n32 The only stored mixed waste that is designated as either reactive or ignitable (DOO1) is silver nitrate in the\n33 silver reactors [WAC 173-303-090(5)]. There is no mixed waste designated as reactive (1003). The\n34 potential for ignition from this source is considered negligible because this material is dispersed on\n35 ceramic packing and is physically isolated from contact with any combustible material or ignition source.\n36 3.2 Tracking System\n37 Specific waste tracking forms for the movement of waste destined for the PUREX Storage Tunnels are\n38 used. These waste tracking forms effectively track waste inventories from generation through storage.\n39 The waste tracking forms and other supporting documentation will be maintained at the Hanford Facility\n40 for a minimum of 5 years following closure of the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\nChapter 3.7\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 3.3 Facility Description\n2 This waste analysis plan (WAP) has been prepared for the PUREX Storage Tunnels, located on the\n3 Hanford Facility, Richland, Washington. This WAP applies to all mixed waste (containing dangerous\n4 components) regulated by WAC 173-303 that is transferred to and/or contained in the PUREX Storage\n5 Tunnels.\n6 The PUREX Storage Tunnels are permitted as a miscellaneous unit under WAC 173-303-680. The bulk\n7 of the waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not placed in a typical container; rather, this waste is\n8 placed on a portable device (railcar) that is used as a storage platform. In general, the mixed waste stored\n9 in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is encased or contained within carbon or stainless steel plate, pipe, or\n10 vessels. Therefore, the mixed waste normally is not exposed to the tunnel environment.\n11 The PUREX Facility, located in the 200 East Area, consists of two separate treatment, storage, and/or\n12 disposal (TSD) units, the PUREX Plant (202-A Building) and the PUREX Storage Tunnels. Access to\n13 the PUREX Storage Tunnels is by means of the railroad tunnel.\n14 The PUREX Storage Tunnels branch off from the railroad tunnel and extend southward from the east end\n15 of the PUREX Plant. The tunnels are used for storage of mixed waste from the PUREX Plant and from\n16 other onsite sources. Each storage tunnel is isolated from the railroad tunnel by a water-fillable shielding\n17 door. There are no electrical utilities, water lines, drains, fire detection or suppression systems, or\n18 communication systems provided inside the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n19 Material selected for storage is loaded on railcars modified to serve as both transport and storage\n20 platforms. Normally, a remote-controlled, battery-powered locomotive was used to position the railcar in\n21 the storage tunnel. In the past and possibly in the future, other remote movers, e.g., standard locomotive\n22 with a string of railcar spacers, power winch, etc., have or could be used to position a railcar in the tunnel\n23 or to withdraw a car from the tunnel. The railcar storage positions are numbered sequentially,\n24 commencing with Position I that abuts the rail stop bumper at the south end of each tunnel. Position 2 is\n25 the location of the railcar that abuts the railcar in Position I and so forth. The railcars and material remain\n26 in the storage tunnel until final disposition is determined. Each railcar is retrievable; however, because\n27 the railcars are stored on a single, dead-end railroad track, the railcars can be removed only in reverse\n28 order (i.e., last in, first out).\n29 Construction of Tunnel Number I was completed in 1956. The Tunnel has three areas, the water-fillable\n30 door, the storage area, and the vent shaft. The water-fillable door is located at the north end of Tunnel\n31 Number I and separates the storage tunnel from the railroad tunnel. The door is 7.5 meters high,\n32 6.6 meters wide, and 2.1 meters thick, and is constructed of 1.3-centimeter steel plate. The door is hollow\n33 so that the door can be filled with water to act as a shield when the door is in the down (closed) position.\n34 If the door is filled with water, the water must be pumped from the door before the door can be raised.\n35 Above the door is a reinforced concrete structure in which the door is raised to open the tunnel. Electric\n36 hoists used for opening and closing the door are located on the top of this concrete structure.\n37 The storage area is that portion of the tunnel that extends southward from the water-fillable door. Inside\n38 dimensions of Tunnel Number I are 109.1 meters long, 6.7 meters high, and 5.9 meters wide. Ceiling\n39 and walls are 35.6-centimeters thick and constructed of 30.5- by 35.6-centimeter creosote pressure-treated\n40 Douglas fir timbers arranged side by side. The first 30.5 meters of the east wall are constructed of\n41 0.9-meter-thick reinforced concrete. A 40.8-kilogram mineral-surface roofing material was used to cover\n42 the exterior surface of the timbers before placement of 2.4 meters of earth fill. The earth cover serves as\n43 protection from the elements and as shielding. The timbers that form the walls rest on reinforced concrete\n44 footings 0.9 meter wide by 0.3 meter thick. The floor consists of a railroad track laid on a gravel bed.\n45 The space between the ties is filled to top-of-tie with gravel ballast. The tracks are on a 1.0 percent\n46 downward slope to the south to ensure that the railcars remain in their storage position. A railcar bumper\n47 is located 2.4 meters from the south end of the tracks to act as a stop. The capacity of the storage area is\n48 eight, 12.8-meter-long railcars.\nChapter 3.8\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nI In June 1960, the first two railcars were loaded with a single, approximately 12.5-meter-long, failed\n2 separation column and placed in Tunnel Number 1. Between June 1960 and January 1965, six more\n3 railcars were placed in Tunnel Number 1, filling the tunnel. After the last car was placed in the\n4 northern-most storage position (Position 8), the water-fillable door was closed, filled with water, and\n5 deactivated electrically.\n6 Construction of Tunnel Number 2 was started and completed in 1964. Like Tunnel Number 1, Tunnel\n7 Number 2 consists of three functional areas: the water-fillable door, the storage area, and the vent shaft.\n8 Construction of Tunnel Number 2 differs from that of Tunnel Number I as follows.\n9 * A combination of steel and reinforced concrete was used in the construction of the storage area\n10 for Tunnel Number 2 rather than wood timbers, as used in Tunnel Number 1.\n11 * Tunnel Number 2 is longer, having a storage capacity of five times that of Tunnel Number 1.\n12 * The floor of Tunnel Number 2, outboard of the railroad ties, slopes upward to a height of\n13 approximately 1.8 meters above the railroad bed, whereas the floor in Tunnel Number 1 remains\n14 flat all the way out to the sidewalls.\n15 * The railroad tunnel approach to Tunnel Number 2 angles eastward then angles southward to\n16 parallel Tunnel Number 1. The approach to Tunnel Number I is a straight extension southward\n17 from the PUREX Plant. Center-line to center-line distance between the two tunnels is\n18 approximately 18.3 meters.\n19 The physical structure of the water-fillable door at the north end of Tunnel Number 2 essentially is\n20 identical to the water-fillable door for Tunnel Number 1. The water-fillable door for Tunnel Number 2 is\n21 approximately 57.9 meters south and 18.3 meters east of the water-fillable door for Tunnel Number 1. As\n22 of March 1997, the door is empty and there is no plan to fill the door.\n23 The storage area of Tunnel Number 2 is that portion of the tunnel extending southward from the\n24 water-fillable door. Construction of this portion of Tunnel Number 2 consists of a 10.4-meter diameter,\n25 steel (0.5 centimeter plate), and semicircular-shaped roof, supported by internal I-beam wales attached to\n26 external, reinforced concrete arches. The concrete arches are 0.4 meter thick and vary in width from\n27 0.4 to 1.8 meters. The arches are spaced on 4.8-meter centers. This semicircular structure is supported on\n28 reinforced concrete grade beams approximately 1.8 meters wide by 1.2 meters thick (one on each side)\n29 that run the full length of Tunnel Number 2. The interior and exterior surfaces of the steel roof are coated\n30 with a bituminous coating compound to inhibit corrosion. The entire storage area is covered with\n31 2.4 meters of earth fill to serve as shielding.\n32 The nominal inside dimensions of Tunnel Number 2 are 514.5 meters long, 7.9 meters high, and\n33 10.4 meters wide. However, because of the arch-shaped cross-section of Tunnel Number 2 and entry\n34 clearance at the water-fillable door, the usable storage area (width and height above top-of-rail) is\n35 6.7 meters high and 5.8 meters wide, the same dimensions as for Tunnel Number 1. The floor consists of\n36 a railroad track laid on a gravel bed. The space between ties is filled to top-of-tie with gravel ballast.\n37 Commencing at the ends of the 2.4-meter-long ties, the earth floor is sloped upward on a I (vertical) to\n38 1 1/2 (horizontal) grade. The tracks are on a 1/10 of 1 percent downgrade slope to the south to ensure the\n39 railcars remain in their storage position. A railcar bumper is located 2.4 meters from the south end of the\n40 tracks to act as a stop. The capacity of the storage area is 40, 12.8-meter-long railcars.\n41 The first railcar was placed in storage in December 1967. Table 3.1 contains an approximate inventory of\n42 waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n43 3.3.1 Process and Activities\n44 The function of the PUREX Tunnels is to store mixed waste until the waste can be processed for final\n45 disposal. When waste is to be placed in the storage tunnels, a work plan, describing the overall transfer\n46 activities, and a storage tunnel checklist are prepared. The work plan and storage tunnel checklist are\n47 routed for review and concurrence by key personnel and forwarded to management for approval.\nChapter 3.9\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 3.3.2 Physical Characterization of Material to be Stored\n2 Physical characterization of waste includes an evaluation of the following physical properties:\n3 * Length, width, and height\n4 * Gross weight and volume\n5 * Preferred orientation for transport and storage\n6 * Presence of dangerous waste constituents\n7 Information sources used in physical characterization include equipment fabrication and installation\n8 drawings, operational records, and process knowledge. Physical characterization provides information\n9 necessary to describe the waste material. Such information also is used to design and fabricate, if\n10 required, supports on the railcar.\n11 Before removal from service, the equipment could be flushed to minimize loss of products, to reduce\n12 contamination, and to reduce dangerous waste constituents present in a residual heel to nonregulated\n13 levels. When equipment is flushed, analysis of the rinsate is used to determine when these goals have\n14 been achieved.\n15 3.4 Identification/Classification and Quantities Of Dangerous Waste Managed Within\n16 The PUREX Storage Tunnels\n17 Table 3.1 contains an approximation of the total amount of waste stored within the PUREX Storage\n18 Tunnels.\n19 3.5 Waste Analysis Parameters\n20 Analytical requirements were selected based on knowledge required for the safe handling and storage of\n21 the waste within the PUREX Storage Tunnels, including any operational compliance issues.\n22 3.5.1 Waste Identification\n23 A prerequisite step in proper waste management is to address whether waste being considered for\n24 management within the PUREX Storage Tunnels falls within the scope of this unit's permit. This\n25 includes identifying any dangerous waste in accordance with regulatory and permit requirements and\n26 applicability of any land disposal restrictions.\n27 This section provides information on how the chemical and physical characteristics of the mixed waste\n28 currently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels were determined so that the waste is stored and managed\n29 properly.\n30 Regulated material presently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels contains the following dangerous\n31 waste:\n32 * Lead\n33 * Mercury\n34 * Silver and silver salts\n35 * Chromium\n36 * Cadmium\n37 * Barium\n38 * Mineral oil\nChapter 3.10\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 Storage of non-PUREX Plant waste is reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Sampling, chemical analysis,\n2 process knowledge (as discussed in the following section), and/or inventory information from waste\n3 tracking forms provided from other onsite sources are required to confirm the characteristics and\n4 quantities of mixed waste to be stored. Future waste and dangerous constituents might not be in the same\n5 configuration or form as described in the following sections.\n6 3.5.1.1 Lead\n7 Lead stored was used in various capacities during past Hanford Facility operations. Primary functions of\n8 lead included use as weights, counterweights, and shielding. Often the lead is encased in steel (carbon or\n9 stainless) to facilitate its attachment to various types of equipment.\n10 Lead exhibits the characteristic of toxicity as determined by the toxicity characteristics leaching\n11 procedure and is designated D008 [WAC 173-303-090(8)]. The quantity of lead present could produce an\n12 extract greater than 500 milligrams per liter should the lead be exposed to a leachate. However, because\n13 the bulk of the lead is encased in steel, is stored inside a weather-tight structure, and is elevated above\n14 floor level on railcars that isolate the lead from other materials stored, the potential for exposure of bare\n15 lead to a leachate is considered negligible.\n16 Sampling and chemical analysis is not performed on lead associated with the material placed in the\n17 PUREX Storage Tunnels. Therefore, the accuracy of the estimate on the amount of lead presently stored\n18 in each tunnel is limited to the data available from process knowledge. Counterweights on equipment\n19 dunnage and lead used for shielding cannot be quantified by existing historical records and are not\n20 included for lead listed on Table 3.1. However, if removed from the tunnels, the material will be\n21 examined and any suspect attachments will be removed, evaluated, and disposed of in accordance with\n22 established methods.\n23 3.5.1.2 Mercury\n24 Mercury is contained within thermowells that are an integral part of spent reactor fuel dissolvers used at\n25 the PUREX Plant. The dissolvers are large 304L stainless steel process vessels that are approximately\n26 2.7 meters in diameter, 7.3 meters tall, and weigh approximately 26,309 kilograms. The outer shell is\n27 constructed of a 1-centimeter-thick plate. The dissolvers were used in decladding and dissolving spent\n28 reactor fuel in the PUREX Plant.\n29 Depending on the specific dissolver in question, 19.1 or 45.4 kilograms of mercury (1.4 or 1.77 liters)\n30 were poured in each of the two thermowells per dissolver (38.2 or 90.8 kilograms total per dissolver)\n31 following vertical installation of the dissolvers inside the PUREX canyon and before the dissolver was\n32 installed in a process cell. The mercury served to transfer heat from the dissolver interior to the\n33 thermohm temperature sensor mounted within the thermowell. This mercury remains within the\n34 thermowells of discarded dissolvers. In preparation for storage, the thermohms were removed and the\n35 upper end of each thermowell was plugged with a 304L stainless steel nozzle plug. In storage, the\n36 discarded dissolver rests in an inclined position in a cradle on the railcar. The mercury contained in the\n37 thermowells remains in the lower portion of each thermowell and, under normal conditions, is never in\n38 contact with the mechanical closure on the nozzle end of the thermowell.\n39 Mercury exhibits the characteristic of toxicity as determined by the toxicity characteristics leaching\n40 procedure and is designated D009 [WAC 173-303-090(8)].\n41 The potential for mercury to become exposed to leachate is considered negligible. The PUREX Storage\n42 Tunnels are designed and constructed as weather-tight structures. Further, the mercury is encased in a\n43 stainless steel pipe within a stainless steel vessel that is stored on a railcar above the floor level of the\n44 tunnels. Therefore, exposure of the mercury stored in the tunnels to leachate is not considered a credible\n45 occurrence.\nChapter 3.11\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nI Sampling and chemical analysis is not performed on mercury associated with the dissolvers stored in\n2 Tunnel Number 2. The quantity of mercury present in each thermowell is documented on Table 3.1.\n3 3.5.1.3 Silver\n4 Silver, mostly in the form of silver salts deposited on unglazed ceramic packing, is contained within the\n5 discarded silver reactors stored in Tunnel Number 2. The silver reactors were used to remove iodine from\n6 the offgas streams of the spent reactor fuel dissolvers. The reactor vessel is approximately 1.4 meters in\n7 diameter by 4.1 meters tall and is constructed of 1-centimeter 304L stainless steel. The vessel contains\n8 two 1.2-meter-deep beds of packing. Each bed consists of a 30.5-centimeter depth of 2.5-centimeter\n9 unglazed ceramic saddles topped with a 0.6-meter depth of 1.3-centimeter unglazed ceramic saddles. The\n10 two beds are separated vertically by a distance of about 0.6 meter, and each bed rests on a support made\n11 of stainless steel angles and coarse screen. The packing was coated initially with 113.4 kilograms of\n12 silver nitrate used for iodine retention. Nozzles on the top of the reactor were provided to allow flushing\n13 and/or regeneration of the packing with silver nitrate solution as the need arose.\n14 Because of competing reactions, which include conversion of silver nitrate to silver iodide, reduction of\n15 silver nitrate to metallic silver, and formation of silver chloride, the packing of a stored silver reactor\n16 contains a mixture of silver nitrate, silver halides, and silver fines.\n17 Silver salts exhibit the characteristics of toxicity as determined by the toxicity characteristics leaching\n18 procedure and are designated DOI 1 [WAC 173-303-090(8)]. Silver salts exhibit the characteristic of\n19 ignitability and are designated as DOOI [WAC 173-303-090(5)].\n20 The potential of silver, including silver salts, stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels to become exposed to\n21 leachate is considered negligible. Silver is contained within a stainless steel vessel, stored inside a\n22 weather-tight structure, and elevated above floor level on a railcar. Therefore, exposure of the silver\n23 stored in the tunnels to leachate is not considered a credible occurrence. In addition, the contained silver\n24 is isolated from contact with any combustibles; therefore, the possibility of ignition is considered\n25 extremely remote.\n26 Provisions for taking samples of the packing were not provided in the design of the vessels. Therefore,\n27 sampling and chemical analysis are not performed for silver salts before placing a silver reactor in\n28 storage. However, for accountability, the total silver content (Table 3.1) is considered silver nitrate, the\n29 salt that exhibits the characteristics of both ignitability and toxicity.\n30 The quantity of silver salts contained within a discarded silver reactor is a function of silver nitrate\n31 regeneration history. Operating records (process knowledge) of regenerations and flushes are used to\n32 estimate the total accumulation of silver within each reactor.\n33 3.5.1.4 Chromium\n34 Presently, chromium stored in Tunnel Number 2 is contained within a failed concentrator removed from\n35 the PUREX Plant, and within stainless steel containers received from the 324 Building. The concentrator\n36 is a vertical tube structure that was used to concentrate aqueous streams from the final uranium cycle,\n37 final plutonium cycles, final neptunium cycles, and condensate from the acid recovery system for recycle.\n38 Following service, the concentrator was inspected and found to contain silicate solids with high levels of\n39 chromium from the corrosion of stainless steel. The existence of chromium within the 324 Building\n40 waste was determined through process knowledge. Chromium exhibits the characteristic of toxicity as\n41 determined by the toxicity characteristics leaching procedure and is designated D007\n42 [WAC 173-303-090(8)]. The potential for the chromium stored in Tunnel Number 2 to become exposed\n43 to leachate is considered negligible. Tunnel Number 2, is designed and constructed to be weather-tight.\n44 Further, the chromium is encased within stainless steel vessels and containers that are stored on railcars\n45 above the floor level of the tunnel. Therefore, exposure of the chromium stored in the tunnel to leachate\n46 is not considered a credible occurrence.\nChapter 3.12\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 The quantity of chromium within the concentrator was estimated by calculating the volume of silicate\n2 solids and the percentage of chromium within the silicate solids. The quantity of chromium in the\n3 324 Building waste was based on process knowledge.\n4 3.5.1.5 Cadmium\n5 Presently, cadmium stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnel Number 2 is associated with shielding and with\n6 a dissolver moderator removed from the PUREX Plant, and within stainless steel containers received\n7 from the 324 Building. The cadmium was used to shield equipment and consists of sheets of the metal\n8 attached to lead, both of which could be encased in steel. The cadmium received from the 324 Building\n9 was used in waste technology research and development programs.\n10 The dissolvers are annular vessels that are geometrically favorable for criticality safety. The dissolvers\n11 were placed over cadmium lined (neutron absorbers) moderators for additional criticality safety. The\n12 moderator is a centrally located, cylindrical, cadmium-jacketed 0.08-centimeter-thick concrete\n13 15.2-centimeter-thick neutron absorber. The moderators are approximately 4.4 meters tall by\n14 approximately 1.5 meters outer diameter.\n15 Cadmium exhibits the characteristic of toxicity as determined by the toxicity characteristics leaching\n16 procedure and is designated D006 [WAC 173-303-090(8)]. If exposed to a leachate, the quantity of\n17 cadmium present could produce an extract having a concentration of greater than or equal to 1 milligram\n18 per liter, but less than 100 milligrams per liter; therefore, the mixed waste is managed as a WTO2\n19 [WAC 173-303-100(5)].\n20 The potential for the cadmium stored in Tunnel Number 2 to become exposed to leachate is considered\n21 negligible. Tunnel Number 2 is designed and constructed to be weather-tight. Further, the cadmium is\n22 stored on railcars above the floor level of the tunnel. Therefore, exposure of the cadmium stored in the\n23 tunnel to leachate is not considered a credible occurrence.\n24 3.5.1.6 Barium\n25 Presently, barium is stored in Tunnel Number 2 in stainless steel containers received from the\n26 324 Building. The waste was generated during numerous research and development programs conducted\n27 in B-Cell of the Waste Technology Engineering Laboratory (324 Building). The existence of barium\n28 within the 324 Building waste was determined through process knowledge.\n29 Barium exhibits the characteristic of toxicity as determined by the toxicity characteristics leaching\n30 procedure and is designated D005 [WAC 173-303-090(8)].\n31 The potential for barium stored in Tunnel Number 2 to become exposed to leachate is considered\n32 negligible. Tunnel Number 2 is designed and constructed to be weather-tight. Further, the barium is\n33 encased in steel containers stored on a railcar above the floor level of the tunnel. Therefore, exposure of\n34 the barium stored in the tunnel to leachate is not considered a credible occurrence.\n35 3.5.1.7 Mineral Oil\n36 Presently, mineral oil is stored in Tunnel Number 2 in stainless steel containers received from the\n37 324 Building. The mineral oil was used in the B-Cell viewing windows in the 324 Building. Oil leaking\n38 from the windows was absorbed on rags and clay absorbent material.\n39 The material safety data sheet for the mineral oil lists a lethal dose (LD50) of 2 grams per kilogram\n40 (dermal rabbit). Therefore, the oil designates as a Toxic Category A WTO2 [WAC 173-303-100(5)].\n41 The potential for the absorbed mineral oil stored in Tunnel Number 2 to become exposed to leachate is\n42 considered negligible. Tunnel Number 2 is designed and constructed to be weather-tight. Further, the\n43 mineral oil is encased in steel containers stored on a railcar above the floor level of the tunnel. Therefore,\n44 exposure of the mineral oil stored in the tunnel to leachate is not considered a credible occurrence.\nChapter 3.13\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 3.5.1.8 Identification of Incompatible Waste\n2 The next step is to ensure that sufficient information concerning the waste has been provided so the waste\n3 can be managed properly. This includes identifying incompatible waste. These safety issues primarily\n4 are related to prevention of unwanted chemical reactions that could create a catastrophic situation, such as\n5 a fire, an explosion, or a large chemical release.\n6 3.5.1.9 Operational Considerations\n7 Sufficient information must be available to ensure that incoming waste meets operational acceptance\n8 limits, e.g., physical size, ALARA concerns, and WAC 173-303 requirements. These operating\n9 specifications are limits and controls imposed on a process or operation that, if violated, could jeopardize\n10 the safety of personnel, and could damage equipment, facilities, or the environment. Operating\n11 specifications have been established from operating experience, process knowledge, and calculations.\n12 3.5.2 Parameter and Rationale Selection Process\n13 This WAP describes the process to ensure that the dangerous waste components of the material stored in\n14 the tunnels are properly characterized and designated so that dangerous and mixed waste is managed\n15 properly.\n16 The parameters considered for waste designation under WAC 173-303-070(3) and the rationale for there\n17 application is discussed in the following sections.\n18 3.5.2.1 Discarded Chemical Products\n19 The first category of dangerous waste designation is \"Discarded Chemical Products\"\n20 (WAC 173-303-081). The waste stored in the tunnels does not fit the definitions in WAC 173-303-081\n21 for a discarded chemical product. Therefore, the waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not\n22 designated as a discarded chemical product.\n23 3.5.2.2 Dangerous Waste Sources\n24 The second category of dangerous waste designation is \"Dangerous Waste Sources\" (WAC 173-303-082).\n25 The waste stored in the tunnels is not listed on the \"Dangerous Waste Sources List\"\n26 (WAC 173-303-9904). Therefore, the waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not designated as a\n27 dangerous waste source.\n28 3.5.2.3 Dangerous Waste Characteristics\n29 The third category of dangerous waste designation is \"Dangerous Waste Characteristics\"\n30 (WAC 173-303-090). The characteristics are as follows.\n31 * Characteristic of Ignitability -Although the solid silver nitrate has not been tested in accordance\n32 with Appendix F of 49 CFR 173, the waste is assumed to be an oxidizer as specified in\n33 49 CFR 173.127(a). Therefore, the silver nitrate waste is assumed to exhibit the characteristic of\n34 ignitability under WAC 173-303-090(5) and is designated as D001.\n35 * Characteristic of Corrosivity -Some of the material stored within the tunnels either has contained\n36 or has been in contact with corrosive liquids. The standard operating procedure has been to flush\n37 vessels with water to recover as much special nuclear material as practical. In addition, flushing\n38 removes much of the mixed waste contamination, minimizing the spread of contamination during\n39 handling. Currently, the final aqueous rinse is sampled and analyzed to confirm that the pH is\n40 greater than 2 and less than 12.5. Therefore, the waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is\n41 not designated as corrosive waste.\nChapter 3.14\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 * Characteristic of Reactivity -The waste stored in the tunnels does not meet any of the definitions\n2 of reactivity as defined in WAC 173-303-090(7). The waste material is not unstable, does not\n3 react violently with water, does not form explosive mixtures, or does not generate toxic gases.\n4 Therefore, the waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not designated as reactive waste.\n5 * Characteristic of Toxicity -Lead, mercury, silver, chromium, barium, and cadmium are identified\n6 on the Toxicity Characteristics list. The quantity of these materials stored in the tunnels is\n7 sufficient that, should the substances come in contact with a leachate (an event considered\n8 unlikely), the concentration of the extract could be above the limits identified in the list.\n9 Therefore, this waste is designated D005, D006, D007, D008, D009, and DOI 1.\n10 The PUREX Storage Tunnels also are permitted for selenium (DO10). Currently, there is no waste stored\n11 in the tunnels that is designated for DOI; however, there is a potential for waste with this waste number\n12 to be stored within the tunnels.\n13 3.5.2.4 Dangerous Waste Criteria\n14 The fourth category of dangerous waste designation is \"Dangerous Waste Criteria\" (WAC 173-303-100).\n15 The criteria are as follows:\n16 * Toxicity Criteria- Cadmium meets the toxicity criteria in WAC 173-303-100(5) when\n17 performing a book designation. Because of the concentrations present, the waste containing these\n18 constituents is designated as dangerous waste (DW) and is assigned the dangerous waste number\n19 of WT02.\n20 * Persistence Criteria -Currently, no waste stored in the tunnels has been designated as persistent\n21 per WAC 173-303-100(6).\n22 3.5.2.5 Waste Designation Summary\n23 The mixed waste currently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is designated as follows:\n24 * Lead -D008; EHW\n25 * Mercury -D009; EHW\n26 * Silver and silver salts -DOOI, DO11; EHW\n27 * Chromium -D007; EHW\n28 * Cadmium -D006, WTO2; DW\n29 * Barium -D005; EHW\n30 * Mineral Oil -WTO2; DW\n31 3.5.3 Rationale for Parameter Selection\n32 Refer to Section 3.5.2.\n33 3.5.4 Special Parameter Selection\n34 Refer to Section 3.5.2.\n35 3.5.5 Selection of Sampling Procedures\n36 The following sections discuss the sampling methods and procedures that will be used. Sampling usually\n37 will be in accordance with requirements contained in the pertinent sampling analysis plan, procedures,\n38 and/or other documents that specify sampling and analysis parameters.\n39 3.5.6 Sampling Strategies\n40 The only analysis presently used in support of the PUREX Storage Tunnels operation is a corrosivity\n41 check on the final in-place aqueous rinse of discarded vessels before the vessels are released for storage.\n42\nChapter 3.15\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 The pH is determined by a pH meter using U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Test\n2 Method 9040 or 9041 in Test Methods for the Evaluation of Solid Waste: Physical/Chemical Methods\n3 (EPA 1986). The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) sampling will not be performed on\n4 any waste currently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n5 Waste received that is not generated at the PUREX Plant could require sampling strategies associated\n6 with this waste that will be developed on a case-by-case basis.\n7 Sampling Methods\n8 Process knowledge of the characteristics and the quantities of the dangerous waste to be stored in the\n9 PUREX Storage Tunnels is considered sufficient to properly designate and manage the stored waste.\n10 The waste currently stored in the tunnels is lead, mercury, chromium, cadmium, barium, mineral oil,\n11 silver, and silver salts. Sampling and chemical analysis of the lead, mercury, cadmium, barium, mineral\n12 oil, or chromium to confirm their presence would not provide additional data beneficial to proper\n13 management of the waste and would not comply with ALARA principles. The silver salts are dispersed\n14 over a large area on ceramic packing contained within a large stainless steel reactor vessel.\n15 Representative sampling of the ceramic packing is not considered to be practical and therefore was not\n16 performed.\n17 If RCRA sampling is required for operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels, representative sampling\n18 methods referenced in WAC 173-303-110 or some other method approved by the Washington State\n19 Department of Ecology (Ecology) will be used. For waste received from other Hanford Facility activities,\n20 existing sampling, chemical analysis, and/or process knowledge documentation is used to confirm the\n21 characteristics and quantities of mixed waste to be stored. Storage of non-PUREX Facility waste is\n22 reviewed on a case-by-case basis.\n23 3.5.6.1 Frequency of Analyses\n24 Because the dangerous waste components of mixed waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels are\n25 stable and will remain undisturbed for a long time, the waste designations and quantities present will\n26 remain the same as assigned at the time of storage. Therefore, repeated analysis is not considered\n27 necessary to ensure that waste designation data are representative.\n28 3.5.7 Selection of Sampling Equipment\n29 The only analysis presently used in support of the PUREX Storage Tunnels operation is for corrosivity on\n30 the final in-place aqueous rinse of discarded vessels before the vessels are released for storage. The pH is\n31 determined by Method 9040 or 9041 (SW-846). The RCRA sampling methods, as referenced in\n32 WAC 173-303-110, will not be performed on any waste currently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n33 3.5.8 Maintaining and Decontaminating Field Equipment\n34 All RCRA sampling equipment used to collect and transport samples must be free of contamination that\n35 could alter test results. Equipment used to obtain and contain samples must be clean. Acceptable\n36 cleaning procedures for sample bottles and equipment include, but are not limited to, washing with soap\n37 or solvent, and steam cleaning. After cleaning, cleaning residues must be removed from all equipment\n38 that could come in contact with the waste. One method to remove these residues would be a solvent\n39 (acetone or other suitable solvent) rinse followed by a final rinse with deionized water. Equipment must\n40 be cleaned before use for another sampling event.\n41 After completion of sampling, equipment should be cleaned as indicated previously. If decontamination\n42 of the equipment is not feasible, the sampling equipment should be disposed of properly.\nChapter 3.16\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 3.5.9 Sample Preservation and Storage\n2 Following RCRA sampling, sample preservation follows methods set forth for the specific analysis\n3 identified. Preservation is in accordance with the methods stated in SW-846 or any of the test methods\n4 adopted by the Hanford Facility that meet WAC 173-303 requirements. No preservation method will be\n5 used when there are ALARA concerns.\n6 3.5.10 Quality Assurance and Quality Control Procedures\n7 The only test method presently used in support of the PUREX Storage Tunnels operation is a corrosivity\n8 check on the final in-place aqueous rinse of discarded vessels before the vessels are released for storage.\n9 The RCRA sampling will not be performed on any waste currently stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n10 Field duplicates, field blanks, trip blanks, and equipment blanks will not be taken. Split samples could be\n11 taken at the request of Ecology.\n12 Generally, quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) requirements for sampling will be divided\n13 between paperwork requirements, such as chain-of-custody, and sampling and analysis activities. This\n14 section addresses sampling QA/QC requirements. Analytical QA/QC is discussed in Section 3.6.\n15 A chain-of-custody procedure is required for all sampling identified by this WAP. At a minimum, the\n16 chain of custody must include the following: (1) description of waste collected, (2) names and signatures\n17 of samplers, (3) date and time of collection and number of containers in the sample, and (4) names and\n18 signatures of persons involved in transferring the samples.\n19 3.5.11 Health and Safety Protocols\n20 The safety and health protocol requirements established for the Hanford Site must be followed for all\n21 RCRA sampling activities required by this WAP.\n22 3.6 Laboratory Selection and Testing and Analytical Methods\n23 This section discusses laboratory selection and the types of acceptable analytical methods for RCRA\n24 samples.\n25 3.6.1 Laboratory Selection\n26 Laboratory selection is limited as only a few laboratories are equipped to handle mixed waste because of\n27 the special equipment and procedures that must be used to minimize personnel exposure to mixed waste.\n28 Laboratory selection depends on laboratory capability, nature of the sample, timing requirements, and\n29 cost. At a minimum, the selected laboratory must have the following:\n30 * A comprehensive QA/QC program (both qualitative and quantitative).\n31 * Technical analytical expertise.\n32 * An effective information management system.\n33 These requirements will be met if the selected laboratory follows the pertinent requirements contained in\n34 the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order Action Plan, Section 6.5. The selected\n35 laboratory also can meet these requirements by having some other type of QA/QC program as long as\n36 equivalent data quality is achieved.\n37 3.6.2 Testing and Analytical Methods\n38 The testing and analytical methods for corrosivity used by the various onsite analytical laboratories are\n39 outlined in SW-846. These methods in some cases deviate from SW-846 and American Society for\n40 Testing and Materials-accepted specifications for holding times, sample preservation, and other specific\n41 analytical procedures. These deviations are discussed in Analytical Methods for Mixed Waste Analyses\n42 at the Hanford Site (DOE/RL-94-97).\nChapter 3.17\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 3.7 Waste Re-Evaluation Frequencies\n2 Re-evaluation of waste within the PUREX Storage Tunnels will not occur because of the personnel and\n3 environmental exposure to mixed waste and the way the railcars are positioned in the tunnels. The waste\n4 is expected to remain stable.\n5 3.8 Special Procedural Requirements\n6 The following sections describe special procedural requirements associated with waste in the PUREX\n7 Storage Tunnels.\n8 3.8.1 Procedures for Receiving Wastes Generated Offsite\n9 The PUREX Storage Tunnels do not accept waste generated off the Hanford Site.\n10 3.8.2 Procedures for Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Waste\n11 Presently, the only ignitable, reactive, or incompatible dangerous waste stored in the PUREX Storage\n12 Tunnels is the silver nitrate coating on the ceramic packing inside the silver reactors. This material is\n13 confined to the interior of a large stainless steel vessel (Section 3.5.1.1) that separates this material from\n14 all other waste material stored in the tunnel. The requirements in WAC 173-303-395(1)(a) require\n15 'No Smoking' signs be conspicuously placed wherever there is a hazard present from ignitable or\n16 dangerous waste. 'No Smoking' signs are not considered appropriate at the PUREX Storage Tunnels\n17 because of ALARA principles. Smoking is not allowed in any area with ALARA concerns and rules\n18 prohibiting smoking are strictly enforced. This policy serves to achieve the no smoking intent of\n19 WAC 173-303-395(1)(a), posting and maintaining 'No Smoking' signs are not considered appropriate.\n20 Isolated areas within the PUREX Storage Tunnels make periodic inspections inconsistent with ALARA\n21 guidelines[e.g., an annual fire inspection as required by WAC 173-303-395(1)(d) for storage areas\n22 containing ignitable waste]. Therefore, such inspections are not performed.\n23 3.8.3 Provisions for Complying with Land Disposal Restriction Requirements\n24 Operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels does not involve land disposal or treatment of dangerous\n25 waste. The information provided by the generating unit regarding land disposal restrictions of dangerous\n26 waste is sufficient to operate the PUREX Storage Tunnels in compliance with land disposal restriction\n27 requirements. When final disposition of the waste occurs, this information will be passed on for final\n28 treatment or disposal of the waste.\n29 3.8.4 Deviations from the Requirements of this Plan\n30 Management may approve deviations from this plan if special circumstances arise that make this prudent.\n31 These deviations must be documented in writing with a copy to be retained by the management.\n32 3.9 Recordkeeping\n33 Records associated with this waste analysis plan and waste verification program are maintained on the\n34 Hanford Facility. These records will be maintained until closure of the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n35 Records associated with the waste inventory will be maintained for 5 years.\n36 3.10 References\n37 Ecology, EPA, and DOE, 2003, Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order, Washington\n38 State Department of Ecology, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and U.S Department of Energy,\n39 Richland, Washington, amended periodically.\n40 DOE/RL-94-97, Analytical Methods for Mixed Waste Analyses at the Hanford Site, Rev. 0,\n41 U.S. Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office, Richland, Washington.\n42 EPA, 1986, Test Methods for the Evaluation of Solid Waste: Physical/Chemical Methods, SW-846,\n43 3rd ed., U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C.\nChapter 3.18\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 Table 3.1.

The PUREX Storage Tunnels are used for the storage of mixed\n4 waste from the PUREX Plant and other onsite sources.\n5 The PUREX Storage Tunnels were designed and constructed to provide a means of protecting personnel\n6 and the environment from exposure to mixed waste associated with stored material. This design also\n7 serves to protect personnel and the environment from the dangerous waste component of the mixed waste\n8 stored inside the tunnels.\n9 The PUREX Storage Tunnels are being permitted as a miscellaneous unit under Washington\n10 Administrative Code (WAC) 173-303-680. The WAC regulations require that miscellaneous unit permit\n11 terms and provisions address appropriate requirements provided for other treatment, storage, and disposal\n12 (TSD) units. Because the operation and construction of the PUREX Storage Tunnels most closely\n13 resemble that of a container storage unit, the appropriate requirements prescribed for a container storage\n14 unit are addressed in this chapter.\n15 4.1 Operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels\n16 This section describes the selection, characterization, preparation, placement, and removal activities\n17 associated with storage of mixed waste in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n18 4.1.1 Preparation for Tunnel Activities\n19 Management, with the concurrence of an appropriate cognizant engineer, determines when material is to\n20 be removed and transported to the PUREX Storage Tunnels. A job specific work plan describing the\n21 overall transfer activities is prepared.\n22 4.1.1.1 Storage/Removal Equipment Preparation\n23 A remotely controlled, battery-powered locomotive normally was used to move railcars into and out of\n24 the PUREX Storage Tunnels. Other mechanical means such as a standard locomotive or a winch also\n25 can be used independently or in combination with the remote locomotive should the need arise. Methods\n26 for use of the remote locomotive are described in this chapter as this represents the normal placement and\n27 removal of railcars at the PUREX Storage Tunnels. Should storage activities require the use of a\n28 mechanical means other than the remote locomotive to place or withdraw a railcar, methods for that\n29 application will be developed.\n30 Preparatory activities associated with the remote-controlled locomotive included the following:\n31 * Charging the batteries for both the locomotive and the radio transmitter.\n32 * Performing operational checks.\n33 * Installing a plastic shroud over the locomotive to facilitate decontamination.\n34 * Installing an anticoupling device on the south coupler of the locomotive (storage only).\n35 * Performing physical inspections of the railroad track within the railroad tunnel to ensure that the\n36 track switches are positioned properly and the track is clear of obstructions.\n37 4.1.1.2 Water-Fillable Door Preparation\n38 Each PUREX Storage Tunnel has a water-fillable door that isolates the storage area from the PUREX\n39 railroad tunnel.\n40 Currently, the water-fillable door to Tunnel Number 2 is empty and is not expected to be filled.\n41 Operational checks are performed on the door hoists. Before performing operational checks on the\n42 water-fillable door, the operator confirms with a dispatcher that the railroad tunnel area is clear of\n43 personnel.\nChapter 4.5\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 4.1.1.3 Other Preparation Tasks\n2 Before material storage, the following preparatory tasks are completed.\n3 * The storage tunnel exhaust fan is verified to be operating.\n4 * Labels will be attached to the railcar in accordance with WAC 173-303-395(6) and\n5 173-303-630(3) if the material contains dangerous waste components.\n6 4.1.2 Tunnel Storage Activities\n7 This section describes the placement of material within the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n8 4.1.2.1 Physical Characterization of Material to be Stored\n9 Physical characterization includes an evaluation of the following physical properties:\n10 * Length, width, and height.\n11 * Gross weight and volume.\n12 * Preferred orientation for transport and storage.\n13 * Presence of mixed waste.\n14 Information sources used in physical characterization include equipment fabrication and installation\n15 drawings, operational records, and process knowledge. Physical characterization provides information\n16 necessary to appropriately describe the mixed waste materials. Such information also is used to design\n17 and fabricate, if required, supports on the railcar.\n18 Specific material known to contain constituents that would cause the equipment to be designated as\n19 mixed waste is discussed in the waste analysis plan (Chapter 3.0). The material includes but is not\n20 limited to dissolvers that contain elemental mercury; silver reactors that contain silver salts; jumpers and\n21 other equipment that have elemental lead counterweights; a concentrator that contains chromium;\n22 neutron absorbing equipment containing cadmium. Characteristics of these materials when stored as\n23 mixed waste are described in Chapter 3.0. Waste transferred to the PUREX Storage Tunnels from other\n24 than PUREX Plant also would be physically characterized.\n25 4.1.2.2 Material Flushing\n26 Before removal from service, the material from the PUREX Plant was flushed to minimize loss of\n27 products, to reduce contamination, and to reduce to nonregulatory levels the concentration of any\n28 dangerous chemicals present in a residual heel. In the future the analysis of the rinsate will be used to\n29 determine when these goals have been achieved. The analysis of the final flush will be retained as part of\n30 the PUREX Storage Tunnel records. Material removed from other onsite units will be prepared for\n31 transfer to the tunnels in accordance with this dangerous waste permit.\n32 4.1.2.3 Railcar Preparation\n33 Railcars are modified to serve as dedicated storage platforms and transporters for material placed in the\n34 PUREX Storage Tunnels. The wooden decking on the railcars is removed to minimize the amount of\n35 combustible material placed in the PUREX Storage Tunnels. The south coupler is disabled or removed\n36 to prevent the railcar from coupling to the railcar stored ahead. Brakes are disabled to ensure\n37 freewheeling of the railcar. Steel decking, catch pans filled with absorbent, and equipment cradles are\n38 provided as needed to modify the railcar for its specific task.\n39 4.1.2.4 Placement of Material into Storage Position\n40 With all preparations complete and with the approval of cognizant management, transferring material to\n41 the PUREX Storage Tunnels proceeds as follows.\nChapter 4.6\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 * The water-fillable door to the storage tunnel is opened.\n2 * The railcar is loaded as specified in the storage tunnel checklist.\n3 * An inventory of items loaded on the railcar and a record of their location on the railcar are\n4 recorded in the storage tunnel checklist.\n5 * A survey is obtained of the loaded railcar at a distance commensurate with ALARA practices.\n6 * The railcar is pushed into the storage tunnel to its storage position.\n7 * Once the railcar is in position, the water-fillable door is closed.\n8 4.1.3 Removal of Stored Material\n9 Removal of material stored within the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not conducted routinely. It is planned\n10 that the material will remain in storage until a means to accommodate processing and repackaging of the\n11 material for disposal or further storage or until another final disposition option becomes available.\n12 Removal of material from storage within the PUREX Storage Tunnels would proceed after the\n13 preparation activities identified in Section 4.1.1.\n14 With all preparations complete and approval of management, removal of material from the storage area\n15 of the PUREX Storage Tunnels would proceed as follows.\n16 * The equipment that will be used to remove material is positioned in the PUREX railroad tunnel.\n17 * Verification is made that the PUREX railroad tunnel is configured properly to proceed with\n18 entrance into the PUREX Storage Tunnels (i.e., tunnel ventilation system is operating, the\n19 overhead door is closed and a survey of the area is performed for as low as reasonably achievable\n20 [ALARA] concems).\n21 * The water-fillable door is opened.\n22 * The equipment that will be used to remove material is moved into the storage tunnel and\n23 connected to the railcar.\n24 * Verification is made that the railcar is connected to the removal equipment and the railcar is\n25 extracted from the storage tunnel and positioned within the PUREX railroad tunnel.\n26 * The water-fillable door is closed.\n27 The loaded railcar retrieved from the tunnel would be remotely viewed and measurements may be\n28 obtained to determine the possibility of mixed waste containment failure during storage in the PUREX\n29 Storage Tunnels. If evidence of containment failure is detected, the specific details (i.e., material,\n30 location on railcar, storage position) would be documented and attached to the waste tracking form. This\n31 information would be maintained in the files and would be used to establish sampling locations within\n32 the tunnels at closure. After remote viewing and surveying, the railcar and associated material may be\n33 prepared as required for transfer to an appropriate onsite TSD unit for treatment or further storage.\n34 4.1.4 Filling the Water-Fillable Door (Tunnel Number 2)\n35 If shielding beyond that provided by the empty water-fillable door becomes necessary, the door can be\n36 filled with water. In the past, this was accomplished by connecting a fire hose from the water hydrant to\n37 the wall stub on the exterior of the door housing (Figure 4.1). Once the fire hose was in place, the\n38 hydrant valve was opened and the door was filled with water.\n39 The hydrant was closed by personnel when a high-level indicator light illuminated. Although attendance\n40 by an operator is required at all times during filling operations, should the door overfill, excess water is\n41 channeled through a vent/spill pipe to the door sump. A 15.2-centimeter drain is provided in each door\n42 sump. Water accumulated in the door sump was pumped out to the Double-Shell Tank System, and the\n43 sump and drain were made inoperable during PUREX Facility deactivation activities.\nChapter 4.7\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nI The drain was sealed during PUREX Facility deactivation. In the future, a temporary source of water\n2 could be provided for filling the water-fillable door.\n3 4.1.5 Post Storage Activities\n4 The following post storage activities would conclude the tunnel storage task.\n5 * Decontamination activities, if required, are performed.\n6 * Management is notified of any unusual conditions observed during the storage/retrieval\n7 activities.\n8 4.1.6 Operation of the Tunnel Ventilation System\n9 The ventilation systems for Tunnel Number I and Tunnel Number 2 were designed to ventilate air from\n10 within the tunnels so the airborne contamination is vented through a High Efficiency Particulate Air\n11 (HEPA) filtered exhaust system.\n12 4.1.6.1 Tunnel Number 1 Ventilation\n13 Active ventilation of Tunnel Number I presently is not provided. After placement of the last railcar into\n14 Tunnel Number 1, the tunnel was sealed (Chapter 2.0). As part of the sealing activities, the ventilation\n15 fan was deactivated electrically and the exhaust stack and filter were isolated from the system by\n16 installing blanks upstream and downstream of both the exhaust fan and filter and the stack was removed.\n17 In the event railcar removal activities are initiated, it is planned that the ventilation system would be\n18 reactivated. Operation of the ventilation system would be similar to that for Tunnel Number 2.\n19 4.1.6.2 Tunnel Number 2 Ventilation\n20 The Tunnel Number 2 ventilation system presently is inactive. As part of PUREX Facility deactivation,\n21 the water-fillable door and outer PUREX railroad tunnel door were sealed. The seal may be temporary or\n22 permanent depending on the future need for storing waste in the tunnel. The ventilation system may be\n23 operated continuously, or de-energized and reactivated during waste placement activities. During\n24 deactivation, a blank was installed on the downstream side of the filter and the stack was capped. When\n25 the determination has been made that Tunnel Number 2 will no longer receive waste, the ventilation\n26 system will be blanked and deactivated electrically similar to the Tunnel Number I ventilation system.\n27 While the Tunnel Number 2 ventilation system is operating and the water-fillable door is closed, the\n28 exhaust system, which discharges approximately 100 cubic meters per minute, maintains a slightly\n29 negative pressure in the tunnel. The exhaust air is replaced by infiltration around the water-fillable door\n30 and through the porosity of the tunnel structure (e.g., the rail-bed ballast). When the water-fillable door\n31 is open (during transfer activities), inward airflow is maintained through the open doorway. This inward\n32 airflow channels airborne radioactive contamination away from both the railroad tunnel and personnel\n33 following railcars (if allowed) into the storage tunnel. A HEPA filter provides filtration of all exhaust air\n34 before release to the atmosphere. When the ventilation system is operating, the HEPA filter is tested in\n35 place at least annually to ensure radioactive particulate removal efficiency. Exhausted air is sampled\n36 periodically and analyzed for airborne radionuclides.\n37 4.2 Containers\n38 This section describes the various types of containment used to isolate mixed waste stored in the PUREX\n39 Storage Tunnels. The PUREX Storage Tunnels are considered to be a miscellaneous unit most closely\n40 resembling that of a container storage unit. The mixed waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is\n41 contained and is not considered a risk to human health or to the environment.\n42 4.2.1 Containers with Free Liquids\n43 The only mixed waste stored as a free liquid is elemental mercury. A small quantity, less than 1.7 liters,\n44 of mercury is contained in each of the two thermowells attached to and contained within each dissolver\n45 (Chapter 3.0).\nChapter 4.8\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nI Primary containment of the mercury is provided by the all-welded construction of the thermowell itself,\n2 which is fabricated from 7.6-centimeter, Schedule 80, 304L stainless steel pipe. The open upper end of\n3 the thermowell was plugged with a 304L stainless steel nozzle plug in preparation for storage. The\n4 dissolver rests on a cradle on its railcar in an inclined position. This ensures that the mercury remains in\n5 the lower portion of the thermowell and is not in contact with the mechanical closure on the nozzle end\n6 of the thermowell.\n7 A secondary containment barrier for mercury, should it leak from the thermowell, is provided by the\n8 dissolver itself. The dissolver is a 304L stainless steel process vessel constructed from\n9 1-centimeter-thick plate and is approximately 2.7 meters in diameter. The dissolver is of all-welded\n10 construction and contains no drains or nozzle outlets in the bottom several feet of its lower section, which\n11 contains both thermowells.\n12 The 304L stainless steel used to contain the elemental mercury is both compatible with the waste itself\n13 and the storage environment. The potential for significant deterioration of either the primary or\n14 secondary containment barrier material before closure is considered to be negligible.\n15 The dissolvers stored within the PUREX Storage Tunnels are not labeled as containing characteristic\n16 toxic mercury (D009) rWAC 173-303-090(8)(c)]. Procedures for labeling were not in place at the time\n17 of storage. Personnel access into the storage area for purposes such as labeling is not feasible and cannot\n18 be justified under ALARA guidelines. Based on ALARA, mixed waste presently within the PUREX\n19 Storage Tunnels will remain unlabeled. However, during future transfers of mixed waste into the\n20 PUREX Storage Tunnels the railcars will be labeled as specified by WAC 173-303-395(6) and\n21 WAC 173-303-630(3).\n22 4.2.2 Containers without Free Liquids that do not Exhibit Ignitability or Reactivity\n23 Most lead is fully contained in all-welded encasements of either carbon steel or 304L stainless steel\n24 (refer to Chapter 3.0, Table 1). The encasement serves as support, protection against mechanical\n25 damage, and protection of the lead from exposure to the environment. Also, lead has been placed in\n26 burial boxes of appropriate size. The boxes provide secondary containment for the lead in the unlikely\n27 event the primary encasement should fail. Although boxes may be open on the top, the PUREX Storage\n28 Tunnels are enclosed; therefore, the containers are protected from the elements.\n29 Both carbon steel and 304L stainless steel used to encase the lead are compatible with the waste and the\n30 storage environment. Significant deterioration of either the primary or secondary containment barrier\n31 materials before closure is not considered to be credible.\n32 In the past, material that contains lead or that has encased lead attached was not labeled as containing\n33 characteristic toxic lead (D008) [WAC 173-303-090(8)], because the requirements were not yet on line.\n34 As stated in Section 4.2.1, personnel entry into the tunnel storage area for purposes of labeling would be\n35 inconsistent with ALARA guidelines. However, during future storage of material containing lead the\n36 railcars will be labeled in accordance with WAC 173-303-395(6) and WAC 173-303-630(3).\n37 4.2.3 Protection of Extremely Hazardous Waste in Containers\n38 The present amount of mixed waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is sufficient to characterize\n39 this material as extremely hazardous waste. Because the PUREX Storage Tunnels are enclosed totally,\n40 protective covering from the elements and from run-on is provided for the storage of extremely\n41 hazardous waste. Periodic inspection of the equipment stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not\n42 feasible and cannot be justified under ALARA guidelines. Safe management of this waste is based on\n43 the following considerations.\n44 * The operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels is passive, i.e., once a storage position is filled, the\n45 storage position remains undisturbed until closure.\nChapter 4.9\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nI * The extremely hazardous waste is compatible with its storage container and the storage\n2 environment.\n3 4.2.4 Prevention of Reaction of Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Waste in\n4 Containers\n5 There is no reactive or incompatible waste known to be stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels. The only\n6 mixed waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels considered an ignitable waste is the silver nitrate in\n7 Tunnel Number 2. The silver nitrate fraction of the silver salts, within the silver reactors, exhibits the\n8 characteristic of ignitability as defined in 49 CFR 173.127(a). Therefore, the silver salts are managed as\n9 an ignitable dangerous waste in accordance with WAC 173-303-395.\n10 * The risk of fire associated with the storage of silver nitrate in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is\n11 considered to be extremely low. This conclusion is based on the following considerations.\n12 * The operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels is passive; i.e., once a storage position is filled, the\n13 storage position remains undisturbed until closure.\n14 * The silver nitrate is contained within large, heavy-walled stainless steel vessels that isolate the\n15 silver nitrate from contact with any combustibles that might be in the tunnels.\n16 * The silver nitrate is dispersed over a large surface area on a ceramic packing substraight and is\n17 not conducive to build-up of heat that could lead to spontaneous combustion.\n18 * Personnel access to the occupied areas of the tunnels is not permitted, thereby precluding\n19 activities that could present a fire hazard (e.g., smoking, flame cutting, welding, grinding, and\n20 other electrical activities).\n21 Although ignitable waste storage units are required by WAC 173-303-395(l)(d) to have inspections\n22 conducted at least yearly by a fire marshall or professional fire inspector familiar with the requirements\n23 of the uniform fire code, the ALARA concerns within the PUREX Storage Tunnels make such\n24 inspections impractical. These inspections are not considered appropriate or necessary for the safe\n25 operation of the unit because of the nature of the ignitable waste, the means of storage, and ALARA\n26 concerns (Chapter 6.0, §6.2).\n27 4.3 Engineering Drawings\n28 As-built drawings for the PUREX Storage Tunnels:\nH-2-55587 218-E-14 Structural Floor Plan and Section\nH-2-55588 Structural Sections and Details: Disposal Facility for Failed Equipment\nH-2-55589 Structural Sections and Details: Disposal Facility for Failed Equipment\nH-2-55590 Door and Hoist Details\nH-2-55591 Door and Hoist Details\nH-2-55592 Door and Hoist Details\nH-2-55593 Electrical Details\nH-2-55594 Shielding Door Fill and Drain Lines Arrangement: Disposal Facility for Failed\nEquipment\nH-2-55599 Electrical Door Control Plan, Elementary Diagram and Miscellaneous Details: Disposal\nFacility for Failed PUREX Equipment\nH-2-58134 Ventilation Details; Sheet 1, Sheet 2, Sheet 3, Sheet 4\nH-2-58175 PUREX Tunnel\nChapter 4.10\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nH-2-58193 Sump Details\nH-2-58194 Sump Details\nH-2-58195 Structural Sections and Details: Equipment Disposal -PUREX\nH-2-58206 Sump Details\nH-2-58208 Fan Details; Sheet 1, Sheet 2, Sheet 3\nH-2-94756 Filter Details; Sheet 1, Sheet 2\n1\n2\nChapter 4.11\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nDoor Pump\nHoist Controls\nSwioc High-Level Fire HoseDoor Light CabinetHoist\nControls\na Hydrant\nFigure 4.1.

In addition, the nature\n4 of the mixed waste located within the PUREX Plant and PUREX Storage Tunnels precludes the\n5 determination of the type of treatment and/or disposition of the waste at this time.\n6 The PUREX Storage Tunnels will be managed as a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)\n7 storage unit until closure can be coordinated with the final closure plan for the PUREX Plant. The\n8 PUREX Storage Tunnels closure plan will be submitted after any required National Environmental\n9 Policy Act of 1969 documentation and land usage agreements, which initiate disposition and aid in\n10 identifying or developing necessary disposition activities, have been adopted. The PUREX Storage\n11 Tunnels closure plan will be submitted for the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology)\n12 approval with the PUREX Plant closure plan.\n13 The PUREX Storage Tunnels closure plan will be written to meet the requirements of Washington\n14 Administrative Code (WAC) 173-303-140 and WAC 173-303-610. This closure plan might consider but\n15 will not be limited to the following options for either in situ disposal or retrieval/clean closure of this\n16 unit.\n17 Federal facilities are not required to comply with WAC 173-303-620 as is stated in the regulations and as\n18 described in Hanford Facility RCRA Permit, WA7890008967 (Permit) Condition II.H.3.\n19 11.1 In Situ Disposal Options\n20 This closure plan might consider but will not be limited to the following options for in situ disposal of\n21 waste in this unit.\n22 11.1.1 Backfilling the PUREX Storage Tunnels with Gravel\n23 This option could involve backfilling the tunnels with gravel to eliminate void space and prevent ground\n24 subsidence. A modified commercially available centrifugal rock-throwing device could be placed in\n25 newly constructed risers evenly spaced along each tunnel roof. Fill material could be supplied and\n26 dispersed into the tunnels by automated controls. Following the fill process, all equipment could be\n27 removed from the tunnel roofs and all means of access to the tunnels could be permanently sealed. Final\n28 activities could involve the construction of a final surface barrier that meets RCRA landfill cover\n29 requirements to prevent water from leaching mixed waste contained in the tunnels.\n30 11.1.2 Injecting the PUREX Storage Tunnels with Grout\n31 This option could involve the injection of grout material into each tunnel to stabilize and immobilize\n32 contained materials and prevent ground subsidence. A grout injector could be alternately placed in\n33 newly constructed risers evenly spaced along each tunnel roof. Grout material could be supplied and\n34 dispersed into the tunnels by automated controls. The grout material could be injected in lifts to\n35 accommodate curing and heat dissipation normally associated with the use of this type of material. Final\n36 activities could involve the construction of a final surface barrier that meets RCRA landfill cover\n37 requirements to prevent water from leaching mixed waste contained in the tunnels.\n38 11.1.3 Combination of Grout Injection and Backfilling\n39 This option combines grout injection with gravel backfilling similar to the processes discussed\n40 previously. Grout could be injected first to fill void spaces under the railcars and provide a basal\n41 structure. Gravel could be dispersed to fill remaining void space and prevent ground subsidence. Final\n42 activities could involve the construction of a final surface barrier that meets RCRA landfill cover\n43 requirements to prevent water from leaching mixed waste contained in the tunnels.\nChapter 11.5\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 11.2 Retrieval/Clean Closure Options\n2 This closure plan might consider but will not be limited to the following options for retrieval/clean\n3 closure of this unit.\n4 11.2.1 Retrieval and Disposal in the PUREX Plant\n5 Railcars stored in both tunnels could be remotely retrieved one at a time and moved beneath the\n6 horizontal door of the railroad tunnel extension for remote viewing, and if possible, characterization.\n7 Transfer procedures could be initiated to move waste material from the railcars to the PUREX Plant\n8 canyon deck area. Following transfer of the waste material, the railcars could be decontaminated and\n9 removed for final disposition at other onsite units. Final disposition of the waste transferred to the\n10 canyon deck area could be in accordance with PUREX Plant closure documentation. The PUREX\n11 Storage Tunnels could be closed after submittal and implementation of a PUREX Storage Tunnels\n12 closure plan in conjunction with PUREX Plant closure documentation. The PUREX Storage Tunnels\n13 closure plan will detail verification sampling and analysis to be performed as a part of closure activities.\n14 11.2.2 Retrieval and Physical Processing (size reduction) in the PUREX Plant and\n15 Subsequent Disposal\n16 Retrieval of waste material stored in the tunnels could be similar to that described in the previous section.\n17 Once the waste material was transferred to the PUREX Plant canyon deck area, characterization and size\n18 reduction of waste material could proceed. An area located on the canyon deck or in a process cell could\n19 be modified to include all necessary equipment to perform characterization and size reduction activities.\n20 Size reduction could be performed through various technologies that include, but are not limited to, flame\n21 cutting, water jet cutting, sawing, or other technologies. Final disposition of the processed waste\n22 material either onsite or offsite could be in accordance with regulations and procedures in place at that\n23 time. The PUREX Storage Tunnels could be closed after submittal and implementation of a PUREX\n24 Storage Tunnels closure plan in conjunction with PUREX Plant closure documentation. The PUREX\n25 Storage Tunnels closure plan will detail verification sampling and analysis to be performed as a part of\n26 closure activities.\n27 11.2.3 Construction of a New Facility for Retrieval, Processing, and Treatment of\n28 Equipment for Disposal\n29 This option involves the construction of a new unit that is either mobile or stationary to excavate,\n30 retrieve, and treat waste material stored in the tunnels. The unit could be constructed in a manner\n31 consistent with the retrieval and handling requirements for large, contaminated waste material.\n32 Following retrieval, the waste material could be treated in accordance with final onsite or offsite\n33 disposition requirements identified at such time. The excavated tunnels could have a temporary surface\n34 barrier placed in position until verification and sampling analysis could be performed as a part of closure\n35 activities to be performed in conjunction with PUREX Plant closure.\nChapter 11.6\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1\n2 ADDENDUME\n3 SECURITY\n4\n5\nAddendum E.i\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum E.ii\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n2 ADDENDUME\n3 SECURITY\n4\n5\n6 TABLE OF CONTENTS\n7 E.

PREPARDENESS AND PREVENTION\n2 F.1 Preparedness and Prevention Requirements\n3 This addendum discusses preparedness and prevention measures for the Plutonium Uranium Extraction\n4 Facility (PUREX) Storage Tunnels.\n5 F.1.1 Equipment Requirements\n6 The following sections describe the internal and external communications systems and emergency\n7 equipment required.\n8 F.1.1.1 Internal Communications\n9 The PUREX Storage Tunnels are not occupied and personnel entry is allowed only on a very limited basis\n10 and under close supervision. Normal and emergency communications equipment (portable two-way\n11 radios) is available for use.\n12 F.1.1.2 External Communications\n13 External communications equipment for summoning emergency assistance from the Hanford Fire\n14 Department and/or emergency response teams are provided by two-way portable radios or other devices.\n15 F.1.1.3 Emergency Equipment\n16 Equipment included in the emergency plan for the PUREX Storage Tunnels is provided in Addendum J.\n17 F.1.1.4 Water for Fire Control\n18 The fire hazard associated with the operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels is considered to be very low\n19 because of the minimal amount of combustibles stored within the tunnels and the lack of an ignition\n20 source. In the event it is determined there is a fire in the storage area of the tunnels, the contingency plan\n21 will be activated. Because of the potential of the mixed waste stored within the tunnels to leach, the use\n22 of water for fire control will be avoided if possible. Reductions of the air supply to the storage area by\n23 isolation of the tunnel exhaust system, if operating, should permit the fire to self-extinguish. Should the\n24 fire continue to propagate, heavy equipment and cranes will be called to the scene to cover areas of the\n25 tunnels that might collapse. Heavy equipment and cranes are readily available on the Hanford Facility at\n26 all times and generally are available for deployment to the scene of an emergency within 1 hour. In the\n27 event that a fire resulted in the collapse of the tunnels, a recovery plan will be developed in accordance\n28 with emergency response procedures included in Addendum J. The recovery plan will take into\n29 consideration plans, if any, for retrieval of the waste stored within the tunnel(s).\n30 F.1.2 Aisle Space Requirement\n31 Requirements for aisle space are not considered appropriate for the safe operation of the PUREX Storage\n32 Tunnels and were not included in design documents.\n33 F.2 Preventive Procedures, Structures, and Equipment\n34 The following sections describe preventive procedures, structures, and equipment.\n35 F.2.1 Unloading Operations\n36 Operation of the PUREX Storage Tunnels does not involve the loading or unloading of dangerous waste.\n37 All loading and unloading operations are conducted at the PUREX Facility or other onsite units.\n38 Therefore, the requirements of WAC 173-303-806(4)(a)(viii)(A) are not applicable to the PUREX\n39 Storage Tunnels.\nAddendum F.5\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1 F.2.2 Runoff\n2 The design of the PUREX Storage Tunnels included consideration and provisions for the control of runoff\n3 and run-on. Construction of both tunnels included the application of a moisture barrier before placement\n4 of the soil overburden. On Tunnel Number 1, 40.8-kilogram mineral surface roofing was applied to the\n5 external surfaces of the structural timbers (top and sides). The roofing material was nailed in place with\n6 an overlap of approximately 10 centimeters at all joints and seams. All interior and exterior steel surfaces\n7 of Tunnel Number 2 were coated with at least a 0.9-millimeter bituminous, solvent coal tar base, coating\n8 compound. The coating was applied using a two coat system, with each coat not less than\n9 0.45 millimeters, ensuring a total dry film thickness of not less than 0.9 millimeter.\n10 The soil overburden covering the PUREX Storage Tunnels also is contoured to provide a side slope of\n11 2 (horizontal) to 1 (vertical). This construction serves to divert any seasonal or unanticipated run-on\n12 away from the storage area of the PUREX Storage Tunnels. For potential situations where a natural\n13 catastrophic event occurs, inspections of the tunnel side slopes are conducted to ensure the contours\n14 remain in a condition that ensures proper runoff and continues to divert run-on away from the tunnel\n15 storage areas.\n16 Run-on at the PUREX Storage Tunnels is controlled by the design features of the exterior of the tunnels\n17 that serve to divert run-on away from the interior of the tunnels. Additionally, all waste within the tunnels\n18 is stored well above the floor level on railcars. The control of run-on combined with the storage of all\n19 waste above the floor elevation provides adequate assurance that runoff will not occur at the PUREX\n20 Storage Tunnels.\n21 F.2.3 Water Supplies\n22 Water was supplied to the PUREX Storage Tunnels from the PUREX Plant. This water was used for the\n23 sole purpose of filling the water-fillable doors should it have been determined necessary. There are no\n24 other sources or uses of water at the PUREX Storage Tunnels. The line that supplied water to the\n25 PUREX Storage Tunnels was blanked and emptied during deactivation activities. In the future, a\n26 temporary source of water would be provided for filling the water fillable door.\n27 F.2.4 Equipment and Power Failures\n28 The procedures, structures, and equipment used to mitigate the effects of equipment failure and power\n29 outage are described in the following sections.\n30 F.2.4.1 Mitigation of the Effects of Equipment Failure\n31 Maintaining safe storage of materials in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not contingent on continued\n32 operation of equipment. The operable equipment associated with the PUREX Storage Tunnels were the\n33 remote controlled locomotive or waste placement and removal equipment, the railcars, and the water-\n34 fillable door and ventilation system for both tunnels. No operable equipment is associated with either\n35 tunnel, as these tunnels have been sealed and may no longer receive dangerous waste. Backup or\n36 redundant systems are not provided for either tunnel, as failure of the equipment would not have the\n37 potential to result in a release of dangerous waste to the environment. There are no hazards associated\n38 with tunnel equipment failure.\n39 F.2.4.2 Mitigation of the Effects of Power Failure\n40 Maintaining safe storage of materials in the PUREX Storage Tunnels is not contingent on continued\n41 supply of electrical power. Electrical power is required to operate the water-fillable door and the\n42 ventilation fan in both tunnels. Backup or redundant ventilation systems are not provided as the system is\n43 operated only to maintain air balance and provide secondary control of mixed waste airborne particulate.\n44 Power failure to either tunnel would not have the potential to result in the release of dangerous waste or\n45 mixed waste to the environment. There are no hazards associated with the shutdown of the tunnel\n46 ventilation systems due to loss of electrical power.\nAddendum F.6\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nI F.2.5 Personnel Protection Equipment\n2 Personnel entering the PUREX Storage Tunnels are required to wear special protective clothing and\n3 respiratory protection at all times because of the material stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels.\n4 Protective clothing and full-face respirators with filters are considered to be sufficient protection from the\n5 dangerous waste stored within the PUREX Storage Tunnels. Personnel are trained and qualified in using\n6 the protective equipment and are checked routinely for mask fit.\n7 F.3 Prevention of Reaction of Ignitable, Reactive, andlor Incompatible Waste\n8 There is no reactive or incompatible waste stored in the PUREX Storage Tunnels. The only ignitable\n9 waste stored within the tunnels is silver nitrate. The silver nitrate is present within the silver reactors\n10 (deposited on unglazed ceramic packing) stored in Tunnel Number 2.\n11 Although silver nitrate exhibits the characteristic of ignitability, it is contained within stainless steel\n12 vessels, stored on railcars above the floor level, and isolated from combustible materials and other\n13 dangerous waste. Additional measures to prevent reaction of the ignitable waste are not considered\n14 necessary.\n15\nAddendum F.7\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum F.8\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nADDENDUM G\nPERSONNEL TRAINING\nAddendum G.1\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum G.2\n WA7890008967\nPUJREX Storage Tunnels\nADDENDUMG\n2 PERSONNEL TRAINING\n3 PUREX Storage Tunnels Training Matrix\nTraining Category'\nPermit General\n(WA7890008967) Hanford Emergency\nFacility Contingency Coordinator\nTraining Category Training Plan Training Training Operations Training\nPUREX Storage Emergency\nTunnels DWTP Response Emergency General\nP1 Orientation (Contingency Coordinator Waste Misc.\nProgram Plan) Training Management Unit\nJob title/position\nNuclear Chemical X X X XOperator\nD&D worker X X\nOperations Manager X X\nField Work Supervisor X X\nEnvironmental .\nCompliance Officer\nBuilding Emergency X XDirector\n4-\nI Refer to the Dangerous Waste Training Plan (DWTP) prepared for PUREX Storage Tunnels for a complete\ndescription\nAddendum G.3\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum G.4\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\nADDENDUM I\nINSPECTION REQUIREMENTS\nAddendum.I.i\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n1\n2\n3\n4 This page intentionally left blank.\n5\nAddendum.I.ii\n WA7890008967\nPUREX Storage Tunnels\n2 ADDENDUMI\n3 INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS\n4\n5\n6 TABLE OF CONTENTS\n7 I.

INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS\n2 This Addendum discusses the inspection requirements for dangerous waste management units within the\n3 Plutonium Uranium Extraction Facility (PUREX) Storage Tunnels.\n4 1.1 PUREX Storage Tunnels\n5 Because waste within the PUREX Storage Tunnels is inaccessible and exposure to the mixed waste would\n6 be extremely hazardous to personnel, inspection of the tunnel interior will not be performed. External\n7 inspections of the tunnels will be performed annually. The inspection schedule, log, and records will be\n8 maintained in the Hanford Facility Operating Record, PUREX Storage Tunnels File for a minimum of\n9 5 years.\n10 Information from inspections will be recorded on inspection logs. The log forms are used to initiate\n11 corrective action if necessary. The elements inspected at the PUREX Storage Tunnels are identified in\n12 Table 1.1. Abnormal conditions are recorded, evaluated, and corrective action initiated as necessary.\n13 Table 1.1.

West Virginia accounted for approximately 1 percent of the value and 2percent of the weight of total U.S. shipments. See attached table. The CFS data covershipments by establishments in mining, manufacturing, wholesale, and selected retail andservice industries. The data exclude most shipments of crude oil; therefore, the totals andpercentages do not fully reflect the contribution of pipeline shipments.\nThe major commodities shipped by establishments vary when measured by value\nand weight. The main commodities originating in West Virginia by value were:chemicals or allied products; coal; primary metal products; petroleum, or coal products;and food or kindred products. The main commodities by weight were: coal; petroleumor coal products; chemicals or allied products; nonmetallic minerals; and lumber or woodproducts, excluding furniture.\nLocal transportation of freight is important to West Virginia’s commerce. The\nCFS shows that in 1993, about one-quarter of the value and over one-third of the weightof total shipments from West Virginia were shipped to destinations within the state.About 25 percent of the value and about 41 percent of the weight of all shipments werebetween places less than 50 miles apart. In comparison, about 30 percent of the value and56 percent of the weight of total U.S. shipments were between places less than 50 milesapart. In West Virginia, about 39 percent of the value of shipments and 49 percent of theweight of shipments were between places less than 100 miles apart.\nApproximately three-quarters of the value and two-thirds of the weight of all\nshipments from West Virginia went to other states. The most important destination stateby value of shipments was Ohio. Other important states by value were: Virginia,Pennsylvania, New York, and Kentucky. Some of the most important destinations byweight of shipments were: Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and North Carolina.\nA large proportion of commodities were moved by trucks, about 65 percent of the\nvalue and 29 percent of the weight.

The Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) is a comprehensive effort to learn where and\nhow goods are shipped in the U.S. The CFS measures shipments of commodities byestablishments with paid employees and engaged in manufacturing, mining, wholesaletrade, or selected retail and services industries. Prior commodity surveys coveredshipments only by manufacturing firms. Commodity flows are estimated for a universe ofapproximately 900,000 establishments.\nData collected on individual shipments include total value, total weight,\ncommodity type, modes of transport, domestic origin and destination; data for exportshipments include the city and country of destination, mode and port of exit. Informationis also be obtained on whether shipments are containerized or a hazardous material. Somefirms provided data concerning on-site shipping facilities and access to shipping facilities,plus data on ownership and leasing of transportation equipment.\nThe CFS is conducted by the Bureau of the Census as part of the Economic\nCensus. Funding and technical guidance is provided by the U.S. Department ofTransportation. Initiated for 1993, the CFS is scheduled for 1997 and every 5 yearsthereafter for years ending in 2 and 7. Commodity surveys were conducted between 1963and 1982, but data for 1982 were not published. No data were collected for 1987.Participants will report for a sample of shipments during a 2-week period each quarterduring the reporting year.\nThe CFS is a mail-out/mail-back survey of 200,000 sampled employer\nestablishments in selected industries. Establishments were selected by stratified sample,with strata based on geographic location and industry. Geographic strata are the 89National Transportation Analysis Regions(NTARs), which provide nationwide coverageand are aggregations of Bureau of Economic Analysis economic areas. Within the strata,all establishments with annualized employment above a specified cutoff were selectedwith certainty, and the remaining smaller establishments were sampled with probabilityproportional to annualized payroll.\nFor 1993, each sampled establishment reported on a sample of individual\nshipments during a 2 week period in each calendar quarter. In addition, about 20,000establishments will provide information on transportation facilities and arrangements intheir final reporting period.\nFor further information about survey design and printed products, contact the\nCommodity Flow Survey Branch, Services Division, Bureau of the Census, Washington,DC 20233, or by calling 301/457-2805 or 2114.

Refer to \nChapter 3, Verifying Recipient Eligib ility, for general benefit information and \nlimitations. \nPhysicians are expected to render medically necessary services to \nMedicaid patients in the same manner and under the same standards as for their private patients, and bill t he Alabama Medicaid Agency their usual \nand customary fee. \nA physician enrolled in and providing services through an approved \nresidency training program will be assigned a pseudo Medicaid license \nnumber, but may not bill fo r services performed as part of the residency \ntraining program. A pseudo Medicaid license number is required on written prescriptions issued to Medicaid recipients. To request a pseudo Medicaid \nlicense number, please refer to Chapter 2, Becoming a Medicaid provider \nfor additional information. \nWritten medication prescriptions should have a typed or printed name of \nthe prescriber on the prescription, handwriting should be legible, and the \npseudo license number for a resident should be clearly indicated. Pharmacists must have the physician’s license number prior to billing \nfor prescriptions. Pharmacies sha ll use the correct physician license \nnumber when submitting a pharmacy claim to Medicaid. \nSupervising physicians may bill for services rendered to Medicaid \nrecipients by residents enrolled in and providing services through (as part of) an approved residency training program. The following rules shall apply \nto physicians supervising residents as part of an approved residency \ntraining program: \na.

Bo th physicians should be enrolled as \nMedicaid providers. The reciprocal arrangement may not exceed 14 days \nin the case of an informal arrangement or 90 continuous days in the case \nof an arrangement involving per diem or other fee-for-time compensation. \nProviders participating in a reciproc al arrangement should be enrolled with \nthe Alabama Medicaid Agency. \nThe physician agrees when billing Medica id for a service that the physician \nwill accept as payment in full, the amou nt paid by Medicaid for that service, \nplus any cost-sharing amount to be paid by the recipient, and that no additional charge will be made. Conditional collections from patients, made \nbefore Medicaid pays, which are to be refunded after Medicaid pays, are \nnot permissible. The physician may bill the patient, in addition to the cost-sharing fee, for services rendered w hen benefit limitations are exhausted \nfor the year or when the service is a Medicaid non-covered benefit. \nHowever, the provider (or their staff) must advise each patient prior to \nservices being rendered when Medica id payment will not be accepted, and \nthe patient will be responsible for the b ill. If a provider routinely accepts a \nMedicaid assignment, he or she may not bill Medicaid or the recipient for a service he or she did not provide, i.e., missed or canceled appointment. \nA hospital-based physician-employed by and paid by a hospital may not bill \nMedicaid for services performed for which the hospital is reimbursed. A hospital-based physician shall bill t he Medicaid Program on a CMS-1500, \nHealth Insurance Claim Form or assign their billing rights to the hospital, \nwhich shall bill the Medicaid Program on a CMS-1500 form. A hospital-based physician who is not employed by and paid by a hospital may bill \nMedicaid using a CMS-1500 claim form. \nA physician enrolled in a residency training program and whose practice is \nlimited to the institution in which t hat resident is pl aced shall not bill \nMedicaid for services performed t herein for which the institution is \nreimbursed through the hospitals' cost reports. For tracking purposes, \nthese physicians will be assigned pseudo Medicaid license numbers. \nHospital-based physicians are reimbu rsed under the same general system \nas is used in Medicare. Bills for serv ices rendered are submitted as follows: \n• All hospital-based physicians, incl uding emergency room physicians, \nradiologists, and pathologists, will bill Medicaid on a CMS-1500 claim form, or assign their billing rights to the hospital, which shall bill Medicaid on a CMS-1500 claim form. \n• Physician services personally r endered for individual patients will be \npaid only on a reasonable charge basis (i.e., claims submitted under an individual provider number on a physician claim form). This includes \nservices provided by a r adiologist and/or pathologist. \n• Reasonable charge services are: 1) personally furnished for a patient \nby a physician; 2) ordinarily require performance by a physician and; 3) contribute to the diagnosis or treatment of an individual patient. Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-5 \nNOTE : \nIf a provider routinely accepts Medi caid assignments, he/she may not bill \nMedicaid or the recipient for a service he/she did not provide, i.e., \"no call\" \nor “no show”. \n28.2.1 Physician-Employed Practitioner Services \nMedicaid payment may be made for the professional services of the \nfollowing physician-employed practitioners: \n• Physician Assistants (PAs) \n• Certified Registered Nu rse Practitioners (CRNPs) \nNurse Practitioner is defined as a Registered Professional Nurse who is \ncurrently licensed to practice in the state, who meets the applicable State \nof Alabama requirements governing the qualifications of nurse \npractitioners. \nPhysician Assistant means a person who meets the applicable State of \nAlabama requirements governing the q ualifications for assistants to \nprimary care physicians. \nAll services requiring additional educ ation and training beyond the scope of \npractice billed by a CRNP/PA must be documented in the approved \ncollaborative agreement from the B oard of Medical Examiners (BME) and \nthe Alabama Board of Nursing (ABN) between the practitioner and physician.

Additionally, thes e codes do not carry the global \nsurgical package concept of inclus ion of post-operative care within \n62 days of the surgery. In the 2004 CPT guidelines the (*) \ndesignation has been removed. Fo r reference, these codes are \nlisted the Procedure Codes section in Chapter 28 of the Billing Manual. \nIt is necessary to append the appropriate anatomical modifiers to \nsurgical codes to differentiate between multiple surgeries and \nsites. \nAppropriate use of CPT and HCPCs modifiers is required to \ndifferentiate between sites and procedures.

If a patient receives anc illary services in a doctor's office, by \nthe physician or under his/her direct s upervision, and the doctor submits a \nclaim only for the ancillary services but not for the office visit, then the \nservices provided will not be counted as a visit. \nFor further information regarding outpatient maintenance dialysis and \nESRD, refer to Chapter 35, Renal Dialysis Facility. \nA new patient office visit codes shall not be paid to the same physician or \nsame group practice for a recipient more than once in a three-year period. \n28.2.5 Physician Services to Hospital Inpatients \nIn addition to the 14 physician visits, Medicaid covers up to 16 inpatient \ndates of service per physician, per recipient, per calendar year. For \npurposes of this limitation, each specialty within a group or partnership is \nconsidered a single provider. \nWhen filing claims for recipients enrolled in the Patient 1st Program, please \nrefer to Chapter 39, Patient 1st, to determine whether your services require \na referral from the Primary Medical Provider (PMP). \nPhysician \n28-14 October 2005 Physician hospital visits are limited to one visit per day, per recipient, per \nprovider. \nPhysician(s) may bill for inpatient prof essional interpretation(s), when that \ninterpretation serves as the official and final report documented in the patient’s medical record. Professio nal interpretation may be billed in \naddition to a hospital visit if the rounding physician also is responsible for \nthe documentation of the final report for the procedure in the patient’s \nmedical record. Professional interpretation may not be billed in addition to \nhospital visits if the provider reviews results in the medical record or \nunofficially interprets medical, laborat ory, or radiology tests. Review and \ninterpretation of such tests and resu lts are included in the evaluation and \nmanagement of the inpatient. Medicaid will cover either one hospital visit or \nprofessional interpretation(s) up to the allowed benefit limit for most \nservices. Professional interpretations are allowed in the inpatient setting for \nthe following services: \nEchocardiography (i.e., M-mode, tran sthoracic, complete and follow up) \nEchocardiography (i.e., 2D, transesophageal) \nEchocardiography (i.e., Doppler pulsed or continuous wave with spectral \ndisplay, complete and follow up) \nCardiac Catheterizations \nComprehensive electrophysiologic evaluations and follow up testing Programmed stimulation and pacing \nIntra-operative epicardial and endocardial pacing and mapping \nIntracardiac catheter ablations; intracardiac echocardiography \nEvaluation of cardiovascular function \nPlethysmography, total body and tracing \nAmbulatory blood pressure monitoring Cerebrovascular arterial studies, extrem ity arterial studies, venous studies, \nand visceral and penile studies \nCircardian respiratory pattern recording (i.e., pediatric pneumogram), infant Needle electromyography \nIschemic limb exercise test \nAssessment of aphasia \nDevelopmental testing \nNeurobehavioral status exam and ne uropsychological testing battery Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-15 Professional interpretations for lab and x-ray (CPT code 70000 through \n80000 services) in the inpatient setti ng can only be billed by pathologists \nand radiologists. The only exception is for professional interpretations by \ncardiologists for catheterization or arterial studies and for select laboratory procedures by oncologists and hematologists. Professional \ninterpretations/components done by other physicians for services in this \nprocedure code range are included in the hospital visit if one is done. If no hospital visit is made, professional interpretation by physicians other than \nradiologists, pathologists, oncologists, hematologists, and cardiologists \nshould not be billed as these services are covered only for the above-mentioned specialties. \nA physician hospital visit and hospit al discharge shall not be paid to the \nsame physician on the same day. If both are billed, only the discharge shall \nbe paid. \nProfessional interpretations performed for an inpatient are counted by \ndates of service rather than the number of interpretation performed. \nAn office visit and an inpatient visit shall not be paid to the same physician \non the same day. If both are billed, then the first Procedure Code billed will be paid. \nPhysician consults are limited to one per day per recipient. \n28.2.6 Critical Care \nWhen caring for a critically ill patient, fo r whom the constant attention of the \nphysician is required, the appropriat e critical care procedure code (99291 \nand 99292) must be billed. Critical care guidelines are defined in the \nCurrent Procedural Terminology (CPT) and Provider Manual. Critical care \nis considered a daily global inclusive of all services directly related to \ncritical care. These codes can only be billed for a recipient age 25 months \nand older. \nCoverage of critical care may total no more than four hours per day. \nThe actual time period spent in attendance at the patient's bedside or \nperforming duties specifically related to that patient, irrespective of breaks \nin attendance, must be documented in the patient's medical record. \nRESTRICTIONS: No individual procedures related to critical care may be billed in addition to \nprocedure codes 99291 and 99292, except: \n• An EPSDT screening may be billed in lieu of the initial hospital \ncare (P/C 99221, 99222, or 99223). If screening is billed, the initial hospital care cannot be billed. \n• Procedure code 99082 (transportation or escort of patient) may \nalso be billed with critical care (99291 and/or 99292). Only the attending physician may bill this service and critical care. \nResidents or nur ses who escort a patient may not bill either \nservice. \nPhysician \n28-16 October 2005 LIMITATIONS: \n• Procedure codes 99291 and 99292 may be billed by the \nphysician providing the care of the critically ill or injured patient \nin place of service 41, Ambulance, if care is personally \nrendered by the physician providin g the care of the critically ill \nor injured patient. \n28.2.7 Pediatric and Ne onatal Critical Care \nCPT Code Description Criteria \n99293 Initial Inpatient Pediatric \nCritical Care, per day, for the \nevaluation and management of \na critically ill infant or young \nchild, 29 days through 24 \nmonths of age Not valid for ages 28 \ndays or less, can be \nbilled by any physician provider type \n99294 Subsequent Inpatient Pediatric \nCritical Care per day, for the evaluation and management of \na critically ill infant or young \nchild, 29 days through 24 months of age.

Only one of these \ncodes may be billed in addition to neonatal intensive care critical \ncare codes. \nLIMITATIONS: \n• Code 99293 (initial inpatient pediatric critical care) is reported for \nthe initial evaluation and management on the first day for infants \n29 days through 24 months of age. \n• Code 99294 (subsequent inpatient pediatric critical care) is \nreported for subsequent days (p er day) for infants 29 days \nthrough 24 months of age. \n• Code 99295 (initial inpatient neonatal critical care) is reported for \nsubsequent days (per day) for neonates, 28 days of age or less. \nPhysician \n28-18 October 2005 • Code 99296 (subsequent inpatient neonatal critical care) is \nreported for subsequent days (p er day) for neonates, 28 days of \nage or less. \n• Pediatric, neonatal critical care codes and intensive (non-critical) \nlow birth weight service codes are reported once per day per \nrecipient. \n• Subsequent Hospital Care codes (99231-99233) cannot be billed \non the same date of service as neonatal critical care codes \n(99293-99296) \n• Only one unit of critical care can be billed per child per day in the \nsame facility. Medicaid pays the first claim received and denies \nsubsequent claims (first in, first out policy). \n• Critical care is considered to be an evaluation and management \nservice. Although usually furnished in a critical or intensive care \nunit, critical care may be provided in any inpatient health care \nsetting. Services provided which do not meet critical care criteria, should be billed under the appropriate hospital care codes. If a \nrecipient is readmitted to the NI CU/ICU, the provider must be the \nprimary physician in order for NICU critical care codes to be billed again. \n• Once the patient is no longer considered by the attending \nphysician to be critical, the S ubsequent Hospital Care codes \n(99231-99233) should be billed. Only one unit can be billed per \nday per physician regardless of specialty. Medicaid pays the first \nclaim received and denies subsequent claims (first in, first out policy). \n• Transfers to the pediatric unit fr om the NICU cannot be billed using \ncritical care codes. Subsequent ho spital care would be billed in \nthese instances. \n• Global payments encompass all care and procedures that are \nincluded in the rate. Provider s may not perform an EPSDT screen \nand refer to a partner or other physician to do procedures. All procedures that are included in the daily critical care rate, \nregardless of who performed them, are included in the global \ncritical care code. \n• Consultant care rendered to children for which the provider is not \nthe primary attending physician must be billed using consultation \ncodes. Appropriate procedures may be billed in addition to consultations. If, after the consul tation the provider assumes total \nresponsibility for care, critical care may be billed using the \nappropriate critical care codes as defined above. The medical record must clearly indicate that the provider is assuming total \nresponsibility for care of the pat ient and is the primary attending \nphysician for the patient. Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-19 28.2.8 Intensive (Non-Crit ical) Low Birth Weight \nServices \nCPT Code Description Criteria \n99298 Subsequent intensive care, per day, for the \nevaluation and management of the recovering very low birth May only be billed by a \nneonatologist \n99299 Subsequent intensive care, per day, for the \nevaluation and management of the \nrecovering very low birth weight infant \n(present body weight of 1500-2500 grams) May only be billed by a \nneonatologist \nThese codes are used to report care subsequent to the day of admission \nprovided by a neonatologist directing th e continuing intensive care of the \nvery low birthweight infant who no longer meets the definition of being \ncritically ill. Low birthweight servic es are reported for neonates less than \n2500 grams who do not meet the definiti on of critical care but continue to \nrequire intensive observation and frequent services and intervention only available in an intensive care setting. Services provided to these infants \nexceed those available in less intens ive hospital areas of medical floors. \nThese infants require intensive cardiac and respiratory monitoring, continuous and/or frequent vital signs monitoring, heat maintenance, \nenteral and/or parenteral nutritional adjustments, laboratory and oxygen \nmonitoring and constant observation by the health care team under direct \nsupervision. \nRESTRICTIONS: \nNo individual procedures related to critical care may be billed in addition to \nprocedure codes 99298-99299 except: \n• Chest tube placement \n• Pericardiocentesis or thoracentesis \n• Intracranial taps \nLIMITATIONS: \n• Once the patient is no longer considered by the attending \nphysician to be critical, the S ubsequent Hospital Care codes \n(99231-99233) should be billed. Only one unit can be billed per day per physician regardless of specialty. Medicaid pays the first \nclaim received and denies subsequent claims (first in, first out \npolicy). \n• Global payments encompass all care and procedures that are \nincluded in the rate. Provider s may not perform an EPSDT screen \nand refer to a partner or other physician to do procedures. All \nprocedures that are included in the daily critical care rate, regardless of who performed them, are included in the global \ncritical care code. \nPhysician \n28-20 October 2005 • Consultant care rendered to children for which the provider is not \nthe primary attending physician must be billed using consultation codes. Appropriate procedures may be billed in addition to \nconsultations. If, after the consul tation the provider assumes total \nresponsibility for care, critical care may be billed using the \nappropriate critical care codes as per the setting. The medical \nrecord must clearly indicate that the provider is assuming total \nresponsibility for care of the pat ient and is the primary attending \nphysician for the patient. \n• Pediatric, neonatal critical care codes and intensive (non-critical) \nlow birth weight services codes are only reported once per day per recipient. \n28.2.9 End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) \nPhysician services rendered to each outpatient maintenance dialysis patient provided during a full month shall be billed on a monthly capitation basis using the appropriate procedure code by age as outlined in the CPT. \nMonthly maintenance dialysis payment (i.e., uninterrupted maintenance \ndialysis) is comprehensive and covers most of a physician’s services \nwhether a patient dialyzes at hom e or in an approved ESRD outpatient \nfacility. Dialysis procedures are allowed in addition to the monthly maintenance dialysis payment. In general, the Agency follows Medicare \nguidelines related to monthly capitation payments for physicians. \n Physician services included in the monthly capitation payment for ESRD \nrelated services include, but are not limited to: \n• Assessment and determination of the need for outpatient chronic \ndialysis therapy \n• Assessment and determination of the type of dialysis access and \ndialyzing cycle, \n• Management of the dialysis visits including outpatient visits for \nevaluation and management, management during the dialysis, and telephone calls. \n• Assessment and determination if a recipient meets preliminary criteria \nas a renal transplant candidate including discussions with family members \n• Assessment for a specified diet and nutritional supplementation for the \ncontrol of chronic renal failure, including specifying quantity of total \nprotein, sodium, potassium, amount of fluids, types of anemia and appropriate treatments, type of arthropathy or neuropathy and \nappropriate treatment or referral, estimated ideal dry weight, etc. \nAssessment for diabetic patient’s diet and caloric intake is included also. \n• Prescribing the parameters of intradialytic management including \nanticoagulant, dialysis blood flow rates and temperature, duration and frequency of treatments, etc. \n \nThe monthly capitation payment is limited to once per month, per recipient, per provider. \n Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-21 The following services are not cover ed by the monthly capitation payment \n(MCP) for the attending dialysis physicians and are reimbursed in \naccordance with usual and customary charge rules: \n• Declotting of shunts \n• Covered physician services furnished to hospital inpatients by a \nphysician who elects not to receive the MCP for these service, For \nexample, an attending physici an who provides evaluation and \nmanagement (E & M) services for a renal patient in an inpatient setting \nmay bill appropriate CPT hemodialysis procedures in lieu of certain \nother E & M services for ipatient visits. \n• Nonrenal related physician servic es furnished by the physician \nproviding renal care or by another physician. (These services may not \nbe incidental to services furnished during a dialysis session or office \nvisit necessitated by the renal condition.) For example, physician \nservices rendered to hospitalized inpatient recipients who require \ndialysis but are not receiving di alysis on that day may use the \nappropriate procedure code as described in the CPT. \n \nPhysician services are allowed for outp atient maintenance dialysis patients \nnot performed as prescribed during a full month or interruptedly. An example of interrupted monthly outpatient dialysis maintenance is \npreceding and/or following the period of hospitalization. \n The CPT codes described by age for physicians rendering outpatient \ndialysis services that are interrupted during a full month should be billed on \na per day basis. These codes should be billed for the days of the month in \nwhich the outpatient ESRD related services were performed. \n \nSingle or repeated physician assessments are allowed for hemodialysis or \ndialysis procedures other than hemodialysis. These services are \ncomprehensive and include assessment and management related to the patient’s renal dialysis. Please utili ze the most descriptive and appropriate \nCPT dialysis procedure when billing for single or repeated physician \nevaluation(s). \nDialysis training is a covered se rvice when billed by an approved ESRD \nfacility. \nRefer to Chapter 35, Renal Dialys is Facility, for further details. \n \nParenteral Nutrition \nThe Alabama Medicaid Agency may reimburse for total parenteral \nnutritional (TPN) solutions through the pharmacy program if the recipient \nmeets certain requirements as listed be low. TPN solutions include those \nused for hyperalimentation, intradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN), and \nintraperitoneal nutrition (IPN). Requirements must be met and clearly \ndocumented in the medical record for coverage of all TPN. All services \nrendered are subject to post payment review. \n Added: \nParenteral \nNutrition \nPhysician \n28-22 October 2005 Statement of Medical Necessity \nThe ordering physician will be responsi ble for writing a statement of \nmedical necessity. This statement shal l certify that the patient cannot be \nmaintained on oral or enteral feedings and that due to severe pathology of the alimentary tract either hyperaliment ation or IDPN/IPN must be given for \n100% of nutritional needs. The orig inal signed statement of medical \nnecessity must be kept in the patient’s medical record. This certification \nstatement must be written or stamped on the prescription or reproduced on \na form accompanying the prescription. The statement must be signed and \ndated by the certifying physician at the time of each order. \nHyperalimentation \nMedicaid covers hyperalimentation for recipients who meet certain \nrequirements of medical necessity and documentation in the medical \nrecord is sufficient based on the following: \n \n• Documentation in the medical record must validate the patient suffers \nfrom a permanently impaired gastroin testinal tract and that there is \ninsufficient absorption of nutrients to maintain adequate strength and \nweight. The following are considered conditions which could cause insufficient absorption: \n \n1. Crohn’s disease \n2. Obstruction secondary to strict ure or neoplasm of the esophagus \nor stomach \n3. Loss of ability to swallow due to central nervous system disorder, \nwhere the risk of aspiration is great \n4. Short bowel syndrome secondary to massive small bowel \nresection \n5. Malabsorption due to enterocolic, enterovesical or \nenterocutaneous fistulas (TPN temporary until the repair of the fistula) \n6. Motility disorder (pseudo-obs truction) \n7. Prolonged paralytic ileus following a major surgical procedure or \nmultiple injuries \n8. Newborn infants with catastrophic gastrointestinal anomalies such \nas tracheoesophageal fistulas, gastroschisis, omphalocele or massive intestinal atresia \n9. Infants and young children who fail to thrive due to systemic \ndisease or secondary to insufficiency associated with short bowel syndrome, malabsorption or chronic idiopathic diarrhea. \n \n• Medical record documentation must include supporting evidence that \nthe patient cannot be maintained on oral or enteral feedings and that due to severe pathology of the alim entary tract, hyperalimentation must \nbe given in order to meet 100% of the patient’s nutritional needs. Added: Statement of \nMedical Necessity \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Added: Hyperalimentation \nsection Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-23 • Physical signs, symptoms and test results indicating severe pathology \nof the alimentary tract must be clearly documented in the medical record. This would include BUN, serum albumin, and phosphorus. \nMedical records must do cument inability to maintain weight during a \ntrial of at least four weeks of enteral feeding. \nIntradialytic Parenteral Nutrition (I DPN) and Intraperitoneal Nutrition \n(IPN) \nIDPN and IPN involves infusing hyperalim entation fluids as part of dialysis, \nthrough the vascular shunt or intraperitoneally to normalize the amounts of \nalbumin, glucose, and other nutrients in the blood stream to decrease morbidity and mortality associated with protein calorie malnutrition. IDPN \nand IPN solutions are considered not covered for the recipient with a \nfunctioning gastrointestinal tract whose need for parenteral nutrition is only due to the following: \n \n• If IDPN or IPN is offered as an addition to regularly scheduled \ninfusions of TPN \n• If the recipient would not qualify as a candidate for TPN \n• A swallowing disorder \n• A temporary defect in gastric emptying such as a metabolic or \nelectrolyte disorder \n• A psychological disorder, such as depression, impairing food intake \n• A metabolic disorder inducing anorexia, such as cancer \n• A physical disorder impairing food intake, such as dyspnea or severe \npulmonary or cardiac disease \n• A side effect of medication \n• Renal failure and/or dialysis \n \nThe following requirements must be met in order to bill for IDPN or IPN \nsolutions: \n \n• Documentation in the medical record must validate the patient suffers \nfrom a permanently impaired gastroin testinal tract and that there is \ninsufficient absorption of nutrients to maintain adequate strength and weight. \n• Documentation must include that the patient cannot be maintained on \noral or enteral feedings and that due to severe pathology of the \nalimentary tract, IDPN or IPN must be given in order to meet 100% of \nthe patient’s nutritional needs.

This would include creatinine (predialysis), serum albumin (predialysis), a low or declining serum cholesterol level, and \nphosphorus. Medical re cords must docu ment inability to maintain \nweight during a trial of at leas t four weeks of enteral feeding. \nRestrictions \nA few solutions used in TPN preparation are considered payable as part of \nthe composite rate for dialysis and sh ould not be billed separately by the \npharmacist; these are as follows: \n \n• Glucose \n• Dextrose \n• Trace Elements \n• Multivitamins \n28.2.10 Anesthesiology \nAdministration of anesthesia is a covered service when administered by or \ndirected by a duly licensed physician for a medical procedure that is \ncovered by Medicaid. Medical direction by an anesthesiologist of more than \nfour Certified Registered Nurse Anesth etists (CRNAs) or Anesthesiology \nAssistants (AAs) concurrent ly will not be covered. \nAdministration of anesthesia by an AA is a covered service when the AA \nhas met the qualifications and standards set forth in Rule No. 540-X-7-.34 \nof the Alabama Board of Medical Examiners. The AA must enroll and \nreceive a provider number to bill the Alabama Medicaid Program. Refer to \nChapter 38, Anesthesiology, for more information. \n28.2.11 Obstetrical and Related Services \nThe following policy refers to matern ity care billed as fee-for-service and \nnot as a part of the Maternity Care program. Refer to Chapter 24, Maternity \nCare Program, for more details. \nPhysician visits for obstetrical care are counted as part of each recipient's \nbenefit limit of 14 physician visits per year under the conditions listed \nbelow. \nMaternity Care and Delivery \nThe services normally provided in maternity cases include antepartum \ncare, delivery, and postpartum care. When a physician provides total obstetrical care, the procedure code which shall be filed on the claim form \nis the code for all-inclusive \"global\" care. The indicated date of service on \n\"global\" claims should be the date of del ivery. If a woman is pregnant at the \ntime she becomes eligible for Medi caid benefits, only those services \nprovided during the time she is eligible will be covered. Added: Restrictions Added: Infusions must \nbe…caused by dialysis. \n Added: Physical signs, \nsymptoms and… \nof enteral feeding. Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-25 \nNOTE : \nWhen a physician provides eight (8) or more prenatal visits, performs \nthe delivery, and provides the pos tpartum care, the physician must \nuse a \"global\" obstetrical code in billing. \nIf a physician submits a \"global\" fee for maternity care and delivery, the \nvisits covered by these codes are not counted against the recipient's limit \nof 14 physician office visits a calendar year. For purposes of \"global\" obstetrical billing, services rendered by members of a group practice are to \nbe considered as services r endered by a single provider. \nNOTE : \nThe date of service on the “globa l” OB claim must be the date of \ndelivery. \nAntepartum care includes all usual prenatal services such as initial office \nvisit at which time pregnancy is diagno sed, initial and subsequent histories, \nphysical examinations, blood pressure recordings, fetal heart tones, \nmaternity counseling, etc.; therefore, additional claims for routine services \nshould not be filed. Antepartum care also includes routine lab work (e.g., \nhemoglobin, hematocrit, chemical urinal ysis, etc.); therefore, additional \nclaims for routine lab work should not be filed. \nTo justify billing for global antepartum care services, physicians must utilize \nthe CPT-4 antepartum care global codes (either 4-6 visits or 7 or more \nvisits), as appropriate. Claims for ant epartum care filed in this manner do \nnot count against the recipient's limit of 14 office visits per year. \nNOTE : \nPhysicians who provide less than four (4) visits for antepartum care \nmust utilize CPT-4 codes under office medical services when billing \nfor these services. These office visit codes will be counted against the \nrecipient's limit of 14 physician visits a calendar year. \nBilling for antepartum care services in addition to \"global\" care is not permissible. However, in cases of pregnancy complicated by toxemia, \ncardiac problems, diabetes, neurologi cal problems or other conditions \nrequiring additional or unusual services or hospitalization, claims for \nadditional services may be filed. If t he physician bills fragmented services \nin any case other than high-risk or complicated pregnancy and then bills a \"global\" code, the fragmented codes shall be recouped. Claims for such \nservices involved in complicated or high risk pregnancies may be filed \nutilizing CPT codes for Office Medical Services. Claims for services involving complicated or high-risk pregnancies must indicate a diagnosis \nother than normal pregnancy and must be for services provided outside of \nscheduled antepartum visits. These claims for services shall be applied against the recipient's limit of 14 physician office visits a calendar year. \nPhysician \n28-26 October 2005 Delivery and Postpartum Care \nDelivery shall include vaginal deliver y (with or without episiotomy) or \ncesarean section delivery and all in-hospital postpartum care. More than \none delivery fee may not be billed for a mu ltiple birth (twins, triplets, etc.) \ndelivery, regardless of delivery method(s). Delivery fees include all \nprofessional services related to the hospitalization and delivery which are \nprovided by the physician; therefore, additional claims for physician's \nservices in the hospital such as hospital admission, may not be filed in \naddition to a claim for delivery or a claim for \"global\" care. \nEXCEPTION: When a physician's first and only encounter with the \nrecipient is for delivery (\"walk-in\" patient) he may bill for a hospital \nadmission (history and physical) in addition to delivery charges. \nPostpartum care includes office visits following vaginal or cesarean section \ndelivery for routine postpartum care wi thin 62 days post delivery. Additional \nclaims for routine visits during this time should not be filed. \nDelivery Only \nIf the physician performs the delivery only, he must utilize the appropriate \nCPT-4 delivery only code (vaginal deliver y only or C-section delivery only). \nMore than one delivery fee may not be billed for a multiple birth (twins, \ntriplets, etc.) delivery, regardless of the delivery method(s). Delivery fees \ninclude all professional services re lated to the hospitalization and delivery \nwhich are provided by the physician; therefore, additional claims for \nphysician's services in the hospital such as hospital admission, may not be \nfiled in addition to a claim for delivery only. \nEXCEPTION: When a physician's first and only encounter with the \nrecipient is for delivery (\"walk-in\" patient) he may bill for a hospital \nadmission (history and physical) in addition to delivery charges. \nUltrasounds \nObstetrical ultrasounds are limited to two per pregnancy. For patients \ncovered under the maternity care waiver, refer to Chapter 24, Maternity Care Program. Generally, first ultrasounds are conducted to detect \ngestational age, multiple pregnancies, and major malformations. Second \nultrasounds may be conducted to detect fetal growth disorders (intrauterine \ngrowth retardation, macrosomia) and anomalies that would appear later or \nmay have been unrecognizable in the earlier scan. \nAdditional ultrasounds may be prior approved by the Alabama Medicaid \nAgency if a patient's documented me dical condition meets any of the \nfollowing criteria: \n• Gestational diabetes with complications (Type 1 diabetes, vascular \ndisease, hypertension, elevated alpha -fetoprotein values, poor patient \ncompliance) \n• Failure to gain weight, evaluation of fetal growth \n• Pregnancy-induced hypertension \n• Vaginal bleeding of undetermined etiology \n• Coexisting adnexal mass \n• Abnormal amniotic fluid volume (polyhydramnios, oligohydramnios) Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-27 • Pregnant trauma patient \n• Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) \n• Monitoring for special tests such as fetoscopy, amniocentesis, or \ncervical cerclage placement \n• Assist in operations performed on the fetus in the uterus \n• Detection of fetal abnormalities with other indicators or risk factors \n(Low human chronic gonadotrophin (HCG) and high-unconjugated estriol (uE3) are predictive of an increased risk for Trisomy 18. \nEchogenic bowel grades 2 and 3 are indicative of an increased risk of \ncystic fibrosis and Trisomy 21) \n• Determination of fetal presentation \n• Suspected multiple gestation, serial evaluation of fetal growth in \nmultiple gestation \n• Suspected hydatidiform mole \n• Suspected fetal death \n• Suspected uterine abnormality \n• Suspected abrupt placenta \n• Follow-up evaluation of placental location for identified placenta previa \n• Maternity Care subcontractors shou ld contact the Primary Contractor \nfor information regarding obstetrical ultrasounds. \nTo determine if a procedure requires prior authorization, providers should \nuse the AVRS line at EDS, 1-800-727-7848. \n28.2.12 Vaccines For Children (VFC) \nThe Department of Public Health provides vaccines at no charge to Medicaid providers enrolled in the Vaccines For Children (VFC) Program as recommended by the Advisory Committee on Immunization. \nMedicaid reimburses administration fees for vaccines provided free of \ncharge through the VFC Program. The rate for the administration fee is $8.00; it is not the rate on the pricing file. Please refer to Appendix A, Well \nChild Check-Up, Section A.6.1 (Fees) for information regarding the use of \ndesignated VFC codes for billing immunization administration fee(s). \nA VFC provider may or may not choo se to become an enrolled Medicaid \nprovider. Enrollment as a VFC provider or a Medicaid provider is independent of each other. \nRefer to Appendix A, EPSDT, for procedure codes for VFC. \n28.2.13 Lab Services \nCollection of laboratory specimens may be billed only when sending \nspecimens to another site for analysis if the other site is not owned, \noperated, or financially associated with the site in which the specimen was \ncollected. The collection fee may not be billed if the lab work is done at the same site where the specimen was collected or in a lab owned, operated, \nor financially associated with the site in which the specimen was collected. \nPhysician \n28-28 October 2005 Providers will not be paid for and should not submit claims for laboratory \nwork done for them by independent laboratories or by hospital laboratories. \nProviders may submit claims for laborato ry work done by them in their own \noffices or own laboratory facilities. Providers who send specimens to \nindependent laboratories for analysis may bill a collection fee. This fee \nshall not be paid to any provider who has not actually extracted the \nspecimen from the patient. \nNOTE : \nProviders should use procedure code 36415-90 for routine venipuncture \ncollection, 36416-90 for collection of capillary blood specimen (e.g., finger, \nheal, ear stick) and Q0091-90 for collection of Pap smear specimen. \n \nRepeat Lab Procedures \nModifier 91 may be utilized to denote a repeat clinical laboratory test performed on the dame date of service for the same recipient. Providers \nshould use modifier 91 instead of modifier 76 for repeat lab procedures. \nNOTE : \nA physician CANNOT bill the following pathology/laboratory procedure \ncodes, however the above collection fee can be billed, if applicable: \n \n82775 Galactose – 1 – phosphate uridyl transferase; quantitative \n83498 Hydroxyprogesterone, 17 – d \n84030 Phenylalanine (PKU) blood \n84437 Thyroxine; total requiring elution (e.g., neonatal) \n28.2.14 Supply Code \nThe procedure code 99070 is utilized by physicians to bill for supplies and \nmaterials over and above those usually included with the office visit. \nExamples of supplies and materials over and beyond usual supplies \ninclude elastic wraps, disposable tubing for bronchial dilating equipment or \npost-operative dressing changes when no office visit is allowable. \n28.3 Prior Authorization and Referral Requirements \nMedical care and services that require prior authorization for in-state \nproviders will continue to require pr ior authorization for out-of-state \nproviders, e.g., organ transplants and select surgical procedures. Please \nrefer to Chapter 4, Obtaining Prior Authorization for more information. \nUnlisted services and procedure code s are not covered by the Alabama \nMedicaid Agency, with the exception of Medicare crossover claims and rare instances when approval is granted prior to service provision after the \nagency has determined that the serv ice is covered and that no other \nprocedure code exists for reimbursement. \n28.4 Cost Sharing (Copayment) \nThe copayment amount for physician office visit (including crossovers, and optometric) is $1.00 per visit. Copayment does not apply to services \nprovided for pregnant women, nursing facility residents, recipients less \nthan 18 years of age, emergencies, and family planning. Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-29 The provider may not deny services to any eligible Medicaid recipient \nbecause of the recipient’s inability to pay the cost-s haring (copayment) \namount imposed. \n28.5 Completing the Claim Form \nTo enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of Medicaid \nprocessing, providers should bill Medicaid claims electronically. \nPhysicians who bill Medicaid cl aims electronically receive the \nfollowing benefits: \n• Quicker claim processing turnaround \n• Immediate claim correction \n• Enhanced online adjustment functions \n• Improved access to e ligibility information \nRefer to Appendix B, Electronic Media Claims Guidelines, for more \ninformation about electronic filing. \nNOTE : \nWhen filing a claim on paper, a CMS-1500 claim form is required. \nMedicare-related claims must be filed using the Medical \nMedicaid/Medicare-related Claim Form. \nThis section describes program-specific claims information. Refer to \nChapter 5, Filing Claims, for general claims filing information and \ninstructions. \n28.5.1 Time Limit for Filing Claims \nMedicaid requires all claims for physicians to be filed within one year of the \ndate of service. Refer to Section 5.1. 5, Filing Limits, for more information \nregarding timely filing limits and exceptions. \n28.5.2 Diagnosis Codes \nThe International Classification of Diseases - 9th Revision - Clinical \nModification (ICD-9-CM) manual lists require d diagnosis codes. These \nmanuals may be obtained by contacting the American Medical Association, \nP.O. Box 10950, Chicago, IL 60610. \nNOTE : \nICD-9 diagnosis codes must be listed to the highest number of digits \npossible (3, 4, or 5 digits). Do not use decimal points in the diagnosis code \nfield. ¾Electronic \nclaims \nsubmission can save you \ntime and \nmoney. The system alerts \nyou to \ncommon errors and \nallows you to \ncorrect and resubmit \nclaims online. \nPhysician \n28-30 October 2005 \n28.5.3 Procedure Codes and Modifiers \nMedicaid uses the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System \n(HCPCS). HCPCS is composed of the following: \n• American Medical Association’s Current Procedural Terminology \n(CPT) \n• Nationally assigned codes developed for Medicare \n• Locally assigned codes issued by M edicaid. Effective for dates of \nservice on or after 01/01/2004, use national codes. \nFiling Claims with Modifiers \nAppropriate use of CPT and HCPCs modifiers is required to differentiate \nbetween sites and procedures. It is necessary to append the appropriate \nanatomical modifiers to surgical codes to differentiate between multiple \nsurgeries and sites. \nAppropriate Use of Modifiers \nModifier 59 (Distinct Procedural Service) \n \nAccording to the CPT book, modifier 59 is described as being necessary to describe a distinct procedural service. This modifier should only be used to \nshow a distinct procedural serv ice when a comprehensive/component \ncoding pair is billed. Modifier 59 should not be billed to represent that multiple services of the same procedure code were performed. \n \nA comprehensive/coding pair occurs when one code is considered a component procedure and the other code is considered a comprehensive \nprocedure. These code pairs are frequently referred to as bundled codes \nthus meaning the component code is usually considered an integral part of the comprehensive code. Therefor e, in most instances the most \ncomprehensive code only should be billed and the component code should \nbe denied as rebundled or mutually exclusive. \nModifier 59 should only be used in conjunction with a \ncomprehensive/coding pair procedure when appropriately unbundling the \ncode pair. This modifier 59 should not be billed with the comprehensive \ncode. The component code can be unbundled, or allowed separately, in certain situations. If the two services are performed at two different times \nof day or the services are performed in two different anatomical sites, then \nmodifier 59 can be submitted with the component procedure code. \nIn order to communicate the special circumstances of the \ncomponent/comprehensive code pair unbundling, diagnoses codes and \nanatomical modifiers must be utilized as appropriate on the claim form. In \nsome cases, it may be necessary to a ttach a copy of the Operative Report \nto further explain the reason for the unbundling of code pairs. \n Modifier 59 should never be used in any other circumstances and is \nsubject to post payment review. If t he services performed and billed for a \ndate of service does not include a coding pair described above, then \nmodifier 59 is not valid or appropriate. Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-31 \nNOTE : \nModifier 59 is not to be used with Physician's Current Procedural \nTerminology (CPT) codes 99201-99499 or 77419-77430 . \n \nModifier 76 (Repeat Procedure) \n \nPrior to January 1, 2004, providers were advised to file multiple services \nwith modifiers Y2-Y9 and Z2-Z3 to avoid services being denied as duplicates. Since these modifiers have been eliminated, we are revising \ninstructions for filing multiple serv ices that are performed on the same \nday. . The appropriate use of CP T and HCPCS codes is required when \nfiling claims. In addition, diagnosis codes and modifiers should assist with \naccurately describing services b illed. It is necessary to append the \nappropriate anatomical modifiers to procedure codes to differentiate \nbetween multiple sites. If a claim drops for manual review, the \nappropriate use of diagnosis codes and modifiers may assist claim \nreviewers in determining the intent of billing without having to request \ndocumentation. As always, providers can continue to file modifiers RT \nand LT when two of the same procedure is performed and one is on the right side and one is on the left side of the body. However, if more than \none service is performed on the right or left side, services could be denied \nas duplicates if more than one RT or LT modifier is filed on the same procedure code. Modifier 76 is defin ed by the CPT as “Repeat Procedure \nby Same Physician”. Therefore, we are providing the following \ninstructions to educate providers on how to submit those services. \n \n1) If multiple services are performed, anatomical modifiers can be filed in \naddition to modifier 76 on the second line item. Anatomical modifiers are: LT, RT, E1-E4, F1-F9, FA, T1-T9, and TA. \n \nDate of Service Place Procedure Number of Services \n2/4/03-2/4/03 11 73580-RT 1 \n2/4/03-2/4/03 11 73580-RT76 1 \n2) If multiple services are performed, anatomical modifiers can be used \nwithout modifier 76. \nDate of Service Place Procedure Number of Services \n2/4/04-2/4/03 11 28820-T8 1 2/4/03-2/4/03 11 28820-TA 1 \n \nMultiple services (excluding most surg eries) can also be filed with multiple \nunits of service. Modifier 76 is defined as “repeat procedure by same \nphysician”. The Agency requires claims f iled with multiple units of service be \nsubmitted as shown below. \n \n3) The first line must be submitted with only one unit of service and the \nsecond line with modifier 76 can show the additional number of services that were performed that day. \n \nDate of Service Place Procedure Number of Services \n2/4/03-2/4/03 11 88305-TC 1 \n2/4/03-2/4/03 11 88305-TC76 3 \nPhysician \n28-32 October 2005 \nModifier 50 (Bilateral Procedures) \n \nModifier 50 represents a bilateral serv ice was performed. For example, if \nbilateral joint injections are administe red into the shoulders, the services \nshould be filed as follows: \n Date of Service Place Procedure Number of Services \n2/4/03-2/4/03 11 20610-50 1 \n There should be only one line item submitted with modifier 50, one unit of \nservice and a submitted amount to cover both procedures. The modifier 50 \ninstructs our system to pay for t he procedure with the highest allowed \namount and half of the allowed amount for each subsequent procedure. \n \nProcedure Codes \nThe CPT manual lists most procedure codes required by Medicaid. This \nmanual may be obtained by contacting the Order Department, American Medical Association, 515 North Stat e Street, Chicago, IL 60610-9986. The \n(837) Professional electronic claim and the paper claim have been modified \nto accept up to four Procedure Code Modifiers. \nNOTE: \nUnlisted procedure codes are not co vered by the Agency unless the \nprovider requested and received approval for a prior authorization before \nthe service is rendered. The Agency will deny all requests for payment of \nunlisted codes after the fact. \nPhysician-Employed Physician A ssistants (PA) and Certified \nRegistered Nurse Practitioners (CRNP) \nPayment will be made only for physician drugs identified in Appendix H, \nAlabama Medicaid Physician Drug List, CPT codes identified in Appendix O, \nCRNP and PA Services, and laboratory services, which are CLIA certified. \nEPSDT screenings will be covered only if the provider is enrolled in that \nprogram. Refer to Appendix A, EPSD T, for EPSDT program requirements. \nThe Physician's Assistant or CRNP can make physician required inpatient \nvisits to nursing facilities. However, physician required inpatient visits to \nhospitals or other institutional setti ngs cannot be made by a PA or CRNP. \nAlso, the PA or CRNP may provide low complexity or straightforward \nmedical decision-making services in the emergency room or assist at \nsurgery (identified surgical codes only) for Medicaid reimbursement. \n \nSurgical Procedure Codes Not Included in Global Surgical Package \n \nCertain relatively small surgical procedure codes formally designated in the \nCPT with an (*) may be billed in addition to an office visit. Additionally, \nthese codes do not carry the global surg ical package concept of inclusion of \npost-operative care within 62 days of the surgery. In the 2004 CPT \nguidelines the (*) designation has been removed. For reference, these \ncodes are listed below the covered services section in Chapter 28 of the Billing Manual. Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-33 Surgical Procedure Code Modifiers \nWhen submitting claims for procedures done on the same date of service, a \nmodifier is required to indicate that t he repeated service is not a duplicate. If \nthe same provider performs the repeat procedure, use modifier 76. \nFor repeat procedures done on t he same date of service by a different \nprovider, use modifier 77. Claims submitted for repeat procedures on the \nsame date of service without modifiers are denied as duplicate services. \nModifier Description \n76 Repeat Procedure By Same Physician. Modifier indicates a procedure of \nservice is repeated by the same phy sician subsequent to the original \nservice. This situation may be repor ted by adding modifier 76 to the five-\ndigit procedure code. \n77 Repeat Procedure By Another Physici an modifier indicates that a basic \nprocedure performed by another physician had to be repeated. This situation may be reported by adding modifier 77 to the five-digit \nprocedure code. \n59 Distinct procedural service modifier indicates that a service or procedure \nwas distinct or separate from other services performed on the same day. This may represent a different session or patient encounter, different \nprocedure or surgery, different site, s eparate lesion, or separate injury (or \narea of injury in extensive injuries). \n \n Procedure Codes \n10040 \n10060 \n10080 \n10120 \n10140 10160 \n11000 \n11200 11300 \n11305 \n11310 11730 \n11900 \n11901 12001 \n12002 \n12004 12011 \n12013 \n12031 12032 \n12041 \n12051 \n15786 \n16020 16025 \n17000 \n17110 17250 \n17260 36000 \n36405 \n36406 \n36410 \n36415 36440 \n36470 \n36471 36488 \n36489 \n36490 36491 \n36510 \n36600 36660 \n38300 \n40800 40804 \n41000 \n41005 41250 \n41251 \n41252 \n41800 \n42000 42300 \n42310 \n42320 42400 \n42650 58100 \n58300 \n58340 \n58350 \n59000 59020 \n59030 \n60000 61000 \n61001 \n61020 61026 \n61050 \n61055 61070 \n61105 \n61107 61210 \n62268 \n62269 62270 \n62272 \n62273 \n62280 \n62281 62282 \n62284 \n62290 62291 \n64400 \nPhysician \n28-34 October 2005 Procedure Codes \n17270 \n17280 \n17340 17360 \n17380 \n19000 19100 \n20000 \n20206 20500 \n20501 \n20520 20525 \n20550 \n20600 20605 \n20610 \n20650 20665 \n20670 \n21100 \n21315 \n21355 23700 \n24640 \n27086 27256 \n27257 \n27275 27605 \n27860 \n28001 28002 \n28190 \n28630 28635 \n28660 \n28665 30000 \n30020 \n30200 \n30210 \n30300 30560 \n30801 \n30901 30903 \n30905 \n30906 31000 \n31002 \n32000 32400 \n32420 42660 \n42700 \n43450 43760 \n45900 \n45905 45915 \n46030 \n46050 46080 \n46320 \n46900 46910 \n47000 \n48102 49080 \n49081 \n49180 49400 \n49420 \n50200 \n50390 \n50398 50688 \n51000 \n51005 51600 \n51700 \n51705 51710 \n53600 \n53601 53620 \n53621 \n53660 53661 \n54050 \n54055 54200 \n55000 \n55100 \n56405 \n56420 56605 \n56606 \n56720 57020 \n57100 \n57150 57160 \n57400 \n57410 57452 \n57454 64402 \n64405 \n64408 64410 \n64412 \n64413 64415 \n64417 \n64418 64420 \n64421 \n64425 64430 \n64435 \n64445 64450 \n64505 \n64508 64510 \n64520 \n64530 \n65205 \n65210 65220 \n65222 \n65270 65410 \n65430 \n65435 65800 \n65805 \n66030 67500 \n67515 \n67700 \n67710 \n67715 \n67810 67820 \n67825 \n67840 \n67850 \n68135 68200 \n68440 \n68801 68810 \n68840 \n68850 69000 \n69020 \n69420 69421 \n69433 Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-35 Procedure Codes \n32960 \n33010 \n33011 57500 \n57511 \n57800 \n \nProfessional and Technical Components \nSome procedure codes in the 70000, 80000, 90000, and G series are a \ncombination of a professional component and a technical component. \nTherefore, these codes may be billed one of three different ways; (1) as a global, (2) as a professional component, or (3) as a technical component. \nNOTE: Not all providers are allowed to bill any or all of the three ways to \nbill. Specific coverage questions should be addressed to the Provider \nAssistance Center. \n• Global , the provider must own the equipment, pay the technician, \nreview the results, and provide a wr itten report of the findings. The \nprocedure code is billed with no modifiers. The Global component \nshould be billed only for the following place of service locations: \n− 11 (Office) \n− 81 (Independent Laboratory) \n• Professional component , the provider does not\n own or operate the \nequipment. The provider reviews the results, and provides a written \nreport of the findings. The Radi ological professional component is \nbilled by adding modifier 26 to the procedure code, and should be billed only for the following place of service locations: \n− 21 (inpatient hospital) \n− 22 (outpatient hospital) \n− 23 (emergency room - hospital) \n− 51 (inpatient psychiatric facility) \n− 61 (comprehensive inpatient rehab facility) \n− 62 (comprehensive outpat ient rehab facility) \n− 65 (end-stage renal disease facility) \n− 81 (Independent Laboratory) \n• Technical component , the provider must own the equipment, but \ndoes not review and document the results. The technical component charges are the facility’s charges and are not billed separately by \nphysicians. The technical component is billed by adding modifier TC to \nthe procedure code. The technical component can only be billed by \nfacilities. \n28.5.4 Billing for Patient 1st Referred Service \nPlease refer to Chapter 39 for information regarding the Patient 1st \nProgram and Patient 1st referrals.

Physician 28 \n October 2005 28-37 Abortions \nIn accordance with federal law, abortions are covered only (1) if the \npregnancy is the result of an act of rape or incest; or (2) where a woman \nsuffers from a physical disorder, phy sical injury, or physical illness, \nincluding a life-endangering physical condition caused by or arising from \nthe pregnancy itself, that would, as certified by a physician, place the \nwoman in danger of death unless an abortion is performed. \nPlease refer to Appendix E, Medicaid Forms, for a copy of the PHY-96-2 \nCertification and Documentation for A bortion form, which is used when the \npregnancy is causing the life of the mother to be in danger. In the case of abortions performed secondary to pregnancies resulting from rape or \nincest, the documentation required is a letter from the recipient or provider \ncertifying that the pregnancy resulted from rape or incest. \n• The original copy of the PHY-96-2 form (for life of the mother in \ndanger) signed by the attending physi cian, or the certification letter \nregarding rape or incest, and a copy of the medical records (history and physical, operative report and discharge summary) must be \nsubmitted to EDS. \n• The second copy of the consent fo rm or certification letter must be \nplaced in the recipient’s medical record. \n• Copies of the consent form or certification letter may need to be \nprovided to hospital, laboratory or other providers as applicable in order for them to submit billing for their services. \nAll claims relating to abortions must have the above-specified \ndocumentation on file at EDS prior to payment. \n This documentation is not required when a recipient presents with a \nspontaneous abortion. \n \nIf the recipient does not qualify for paym ent by Medicaid and elects to have the \nabortion, providers may bill the recipient for the abortion as a non-covered \nservice. \nSterilization \nEDS must have on file the Medicaid-approved sterilization form. Refer to \nAppendix C, Family Planning, for more information. \nSterilization by Hysterectomy \nPayment is not available for a hysterectomy if: \n1. It was performed solely for the purpo se of rendering an individual permanently \nincapable of reproducing \n2. If there was more than one purpose to the procedure, it would not have been \nperformed but for the purpose of r endering the individual permanently \nincapable of reproducing \nHysterectomy procedures performed fo r the sole purpose of rendering an \nindividual incapable of reproducing are not covered under Medicaid. \nHysterectomies done as a medical nece ssity as treatment of disease can be \npaid for by the Medicaid funds under the physician's program. \nPhysician \n28-38 October 2005 \nNOTE : \nSterilization performed for the sole purpose of re ndering a person \npermanently incapable of reproducing is not available to persons under \ntwenty-one (21) years of age under the Medicaid Program. \nRefer to Appendix E, Medicaid Forms, for a sample of the sterilization form. \nHysterectomy \nThe hysterectomy consent form was recent ly revised. The form was revised to \ninclude a section for unusual circumstances. Now this form can be used by a \nphysician to certify a patient was alr eady sterile when the hysterectomy was \nperformed; a hysterectomy was perform ed under a life threatening situation; \nor a hysterectomy was performed under a period of retroactive Medicaid \neligibility. In all of these circumstance s, medical records mu st be forwarded to \nEDS along with the hysterectomy consent form and claim(s) in order for a \nState review to be performed. \nNOTE : \nThe doctor’s explanation to the patient that the operation will make her \nsterile and the doctor’s and recipient’s signature must precede the \noperation except in the ca se of medical emergency. \n \nIt is also important to note that certain fields on the hysterectomy consent form \nare non-correctable. T he non-correctable fields include the recipient’s \nsignature and date of signed informed consent, the provider’s signature and date of informed consent and the repr esentative’s signature and date of \ninformed consent (if the recipient requires a representative to sign for them). If \na non-correctable field is missing, contains invalid information or indicates the \nrecipient/representative or physician sig ned after the date of surgery, EDS will \ndeny the consent form. \nEDS must have on file a Medicaid- approved Hysterectomy Consent Form. \nThe revised hysterectomy consent form (form # PHY-81243) becomes \neffective January 1, 2004.

As th e \nDraft Report amply indicates, there is plenty of work to do if the RPS goals are going to \nbe met, so w e should avoid spending time on solutions that do not address real p roblems. \n \n5. We strongly urge the Commission to re move the Draft Report’s call for the \ndevelopment of statewide protocols for studying avia n mortality to address site-specific \nimpacts. Staff docum ents in support of th e Energy Report process never suggested that \nexisting sets of protocols are inadequate, nor has staff studied local siting processes in \nthe state. Wind facilities in California are sited w ith appropriate environm ental review, \nwhich is why the Altam ont avian fatality problem rem ains unique. \nCalWEA does, however, support a set of protocols issued by the National W ind \nCoordinating Comm ittee and cite d by staff; these protocols were authored by a for mer \nstaff m ember of this Commission. We would support a Commission recommendation \nthat local siting authorities a dopt these protocols for use when they deem studies to be \nnecessary. Giving additional weight to study protocols would require an am endm ent to \nCEQA. The lead lo cal agencies und er CEQA ar e best equ ipped to ta ilor studies to s ite-\nspecific circum stances (which can differ with in each individual wind resource area). \n \n6. We urge the Comm ission to rem ove the thr ee options proposed in the Draf t Report to \nsimplify adm inistration of the RPS program . None of these options actually address \nthe barriers and problem s that were correc tly iden tified as the m ajor obstacles to \nachieving RPS goals, and they would create problem s of the ir own. Pursuing them \nwould require legislation and m ore implem entation, which would divert years of tim e \nand attention away from addressing issu es that are worthy of attention. \n \n7. Instead of highlighting these solutions , the final report should focus on other \nrecomm endations that are m ade which do us efully addres s the identified problem s, \nsuch as: (a) sim plifying and standardizing power purchase contracts; (b) improving the \ntranspa rency and unif ormity of utility procurem ent proces ses; and (c ) involving th e \nCAISO in planning for transm ission to m eet RPS goals. \n \nIn addition to the reco mmendatio ns add ressed above, there are s everal additional \nways in which the Commission can and sh ould advance the RPS goals, which are not \nincluded in the Draft R eport, but should be reflected in th e final one. \n \n8. The Comm ission should engage the CAISO in its PIER Interm ittency Analysis P roject \n(IAP). W e believe this important project is missing an im portant opportunity to engage \n 2 the CAISO at the h ighest levels to en sure that it s upports th e methods that will b e \nemployed in the effort. The Draft Report states that the CAISO should undertake a \nsimilar res earch in itiativ e. Rather th an encourage a duplic ation of efforts, the \nComm ission should include the CAISO in its own efforts to ensure that it will be \ncomf ortable with the res ults and can imm ediately take further actions from there. \n \n9. The Comm ission should produce system integra tion cost inform ation for application to \nRPS bids (integration cost adde rs). The RPS statute requires that the utilities conside r \nthe system integra tion c osts and cap acity v alues associated w ith renewable resource \nbids. To date, the CPUC has relied upon in form ation from the CEC’s studies for this \ninform ation, but we do not have this inform ation for significant additional quantities of \nrenewable r esources, w hich the CP UC will nee d in approv ing renewables-re lated \ntransm ission upgrades. As far as we can determ ine, the Comm ission has no effort \nunderway to produce this inform ation, which is needed to advance the state’s RPS \ngoals. W e strongly encourage the Commission to ensure that this gap is filled, either \nas part of the IAP, or from a separate effort. \n \n10. The Comm ission should ensure that WREGIS tracks energy deliveries. The Draft \nReport m entions the im portance of assuring th at RPS energy is ac tually d elivered in to \nthe state, but the Comm ission has not taken steps to achieve that through the W REGIS \nsystem . \n \n11. The Comm ission should develop guidelines for issuing SEP paym ents so that there w ill \nbe no delays should SEPs be required. \n \n Finally, w e believe that the Draft Repor t’s cr iticis ms of FERC on the Tehachapi \n“trunk line” decision are misgu ided, and should be replaced w ith a di scussion of the tools \nthat the state should be using to ach ieve California’s RPS transmission goals. \n \n12. We do not agree that FE RC “rem oved the prim ary instrum ent the state could have used \nto address transm ission constraints for re newab les” and “effectiv ely bar[red] the \nadvanced planning and construction of transm ission facilities.” Once SCE \ncharacterized the trunk line as being devoi d of network benefits, FERC had no legal \noption but to dism iss the notion of charging transm ission custom ers for it. \n \n13. FERC deserves significant credit for using its leg al flexibility to gran t SCE’s reques t to \nenable it to build transm ission f acilities in advance of genera tor in terconnection \nrequests. FERC had no obligation to do th is; it reached far b eyond what it had ev er \ndone before, and should be comm ended for it. \n \n14. Rather than lodge unfounded com plaints ag ainst FERC, the Comm ission should place \nthe focus on the other recommendations that the Draf t Report m akes rela ted to th is \nissue - - modifying the C AISO tarif f to give the C AISO the ability to con sider sta te \npolicy goals (p. 86) and encouraging com prehensive transm ission planning efforts by \nthe Comm ission, the CP UC and the CAISO. \n \n 3 15. In addition, the Comm ission should highlight th e need for the CPUC to us e its statutory \nauthority under PU Code Section 399.25 (a ) to prom ote transm ission upgrades that \nprovide network benefits while tapping th e state’s m ajor renewable resou rce areas \n(with costs therefore recoverable from all transmission cu stomers), and (b) to ensu re \nthat those up grades are financed by th e tran smission owner. Had the CPUC used this \ntool effectively in the S CE’s “trunk line” case, the upgrade could have been approved \nthe first tim e around without the need for any m ajor changes in FERC’s current \napproach to transm ission cost recovery. To m eet California’s RPS goals, we need to \nlearn from this m istake. \n \n \nII. COMMENTS ON WIND-AVI AN ISSUES \n \nA. The Commission Should Remove the Draft Report’s Call for Develop ment \nof Statew ide Protocols for Studyin g Avian Mortality \n \nThe Draft Energy Report (p. 103) calls for “ developing statew ide protocols for studying \navian m ortality to addres s site-specific im pacts in each ind ividual wind res ource area” \n(emphasis added). No explanation was provide d. Staff doc uments supporting the Integrated \nEnergy Policy Report (IEPR) process on this issu e suggested that “[s]tatewide guidelines for \nwind energy projects m ay be an appropriate way to gain consistency statewide when \ndeveloping and m itigating projec ts”1 but did not suggest that exis ting protocols are inadequate. \nStaff cited protocols issued by the National Wind Coordinating Comm ittee (NW CC) and the \nU.S. Fish & W ildlife Service (USFWS). Indee d, the lead author of the NWCC docum ent was \nthe Comm ission’s own Richard Anderson, a wildlif e ecologist and then-project m anager for \navian-wind studies. \n \nCalWEA supports th e NWCC protocols,2 and would support a Comm ission \nrecomm endation that lo cal siting authorities ad opt those protocols for use when they deem \nstudies to be necessary. For the protocols to carry greater weight than a recomm endat ion \nwould require an am endm ent to CEQA. \n \nRegarding adapting the protoco ls for each wi nd resource area, as the N WCC protocols \nstate: \n \nIn jurisdictions requiring bird research, the inform ation in this docum ent can be \nused to develop standard operating pro cedures (SOPs) and/ or study designs. \nHowever, many situ ations will require site-sp ecific knowledge and expert \nrecomm endations as to which study design and m ethods are most appropriate. \n \nThe lead local agencies under CEQA are best equipped to tailor stud ies to site-specific \ncircum stances (which can differ within each indi vidual wind resource area). Staff docum ents \n \n1 California E nergy Comm ission Staff Report, “Asse ssment of Avian Mortalit y from Collisions and \nElectrocutions” (CEC-700-2005- 015). June 2005 . \n2 Indeed, had these protocols been followed by the authors of the 2004 PIER report discussed below, \nthat stud y would n ot now be the subject of considerable controversy. \n 4 in support of the IEPR process did no t study th e local s iting p rocesses in California, let alon e \nprovide any evidence that they are not working. That m odern wind facilities in Calif ornia are \nsited with appropriate environm ental review is evidenced by th e absence of significant facility-\nrelated av ian mortality outside the Altam ont. \n \nFor exam ple, in Solano County where avia n impacts are a concern, the county has \nextens ive pre-construction and post-constructio n monitoring procedures in place, which are \nspecific to local topographic f eatures and avian populations. The county has also imposed \nappropriate m itigation m easures.3 The developers in Solano County also engaged local \nUSFWS offi cials in inform al discussions concer ning their proposed projects, and the Service \nhad no objections. In the Altam ont, the area of prim ary concern, the county’s newly adopted \nprogram to identif y effective m itigation m easures will be inf ormed by an independent \nScientific Review Comm ittee, including two m embers appointed by state and federal wildlife \nauthor ities, which will r eport to cou nty officials. \n \nThe Comm ission should therefore delete the recommendation to develop statewide \nprotocols, and should not endeavor to devel op site-specific guidelines for the unlim ited \nnumber of site-specific situ ations that m ay arise. \n \nB. The Draft Energy Report Correctly Expresses Caution Regarding a CEC \nConsultant Report on Wind-Avian Issues \n \nCalWEA strongly supports and appreciates th e statem ent (p. 102) which appropriately \ncasts doubt upon the scientific validity of the findings of the 2004 PIER report by Smallwood \nand Thelander. The Draft Report correctly iden tifies som e of the serious flaws in the study \n(“[i]nadequate access to certain turbines, tim e lapses between surveys, length of survey period, \nand various extrapo lation techniqu es”) which ca ll into qu estion the m ortality estim ates m ade in \nthe study as well as the v alidity of the proposed mitig ation m easures, which the Draft Report \nappropriately labels as “experim ental.”4 \n \nUnfortunately, the consultant report has alr eady taken on a life of its own. Despite the \nflaws cited in the Draft Energy Report, th e mitigation m easures propos ed in the 200 4 PIER \nreport will n everth eless be im plem ented wit hout further testing in essentially all non-\nrepowered wind projects in Alam eda County (though they will b e monitored clos ely for \neffectivenes s by the Scie ntific Revie w Committe e). More w orrisom e is that the un tested \nmeasures – which were developed based on obsolet e turb ines in the Alta mont terrain – have \nbeen raised by siting officials around the country as potentially appropriate in areas where \n \n3 Commissio n Staff is apparently unaware of the mitigation m easures adopted for Solano Count y \nprojects. In its response to filed commen ts, sta ff state s “We are una ware of any significant m easures \nother then [ sic] monitoring (which is not mitigati on) occurring at ot her California wind farms to reduce \navian collision.” (CEC Staff Response to Public Comments, August 31, 2005, at PDF-page 129.) \n \n4 At the October 6 IEPR hearing, proponents of th is study asserted that (even if the m ortality estimates \nare wrong), the m ortality associations with partic ular turbines (on which the proposed m itigat ion \nmeasures ar e based) are co rrect becaus e they were based on actual carcas ses found, not esti mates. We \ndisagree. The mortality associations suffer fro m many of the same flaws as the mortality estimates. \n(For m ore dis cussion, see Appendix 1, footnote 2.) \n 5 avian m ortality is no t remotely comparable to th e unique pro blem at the Altam ont. CalW EA is \nconcerned that Comm ission staff, who also erro neously be lieve tha t the model is app licab le \noutside the Altam ont, will continu e to prom ote its use m ore broadly. \n \nBecause of the traction that the 2004 PIER report has gained, CalWEA ha s requested \nthat the Commission conduct an outside independent review of the scientif ic validity of the \nreport’s conclusions; Commission managem ent has ag reed to seek such an assessm ent and we \nlook forward to the resu lts. The win d operato rs in the Altam ont Pass are comm itted, and now \nobligated, to finding ways to reduce avian m ortality, but no one is served by widely \nimplementing m easures that m ay prove ineffective or counter-productive. \n \nAn independent review of the 2004 PIER report is especially warranted in view of the \nstaff’s inadequate response to i ndustry criticism s of that report, as we explain in an attached \nappendix. \n \nC. The Commission Should Not Cite the Flaw ed 2004 PIER Study as an \nImportant Source of Know ledge \n \nThe Draft Energy Report states (p. 101), \"Ca lifornia has an importa nt opportunity to \nmore carefully site new turbines based on knowle dge of bird flight pa tterns, thereby reducing \nand avoiding bird deaths from wind turbines .\" In support of this statem ent, a 2005 staff \ndocum ent is cited which, in turn, is based on the behavioral observations from the 2004 PIER \nreport. That reference should be removed, for several reasons. \nFirst, in ligh t of the Draf t Energy Report’s subsequent st atem ent ca lling into question \nthe scientific validity of the 2004 PIER report (d iscussed in section II.A. 2, above), this report \nshould not be referenced as an im portant source of knowledge regarding turbine siting.5 \nSecond, as we stated in the pr evious section, the 2004 PIER Repor t is specific to the Altam ont \nterrain, and is therefore not appl icable to the repowering of proj ects els ewhere in California. \nAnd, finally, when avian issues are a concern w ith proposed repowers outside of the Altam ont, \nthe indus try conducts pre-constructio n avian s tudies and uses the results w hen turb ine siting \ndecisions are m ade. \n \nIII. COMMENTS ON WIND REPOWER ISS UES \n \nA. The Draft Energy Report Appropriately Encourages the CPUC to \nPromote Repow ers, and Could Be More Specific \n \nCalWEA strongly supports th e Draft Report’s recomm endation (p. 103) that the \n“CPUC quickly develop new Qualif ying Facility contra cts to overcom e impedim ents to \nrepowering and take advantage of the Federal Production Tax Cr edit” (P TC) to help achieve \n \n5 As explained in an appendix to these comment s, the underl ying data used to identify \"problem \nturbines\" suffers fro m an a bsence of controls for b ackground m ortality, incons istent search fre quencies \nand search ar eas, inconsist ent study durations , and a l ikelihood of c arcass double-counting. \n 6 the goals of reducing avian fatalities in the Al tamont Pass and to help m eet the s tate’s RPS \ngoals. \n \nThe CPUC has not taken any specific acti ons to prom ote repowers, despite having \nidentified repowering as an im portant goal. As CalW EA state d in rec ent comments to the \nCPUC,6 there is one action that the CPUC could ta ke to prom ote repowers in the short term \n(i.e., that wo uld accelerate repowerin g beyond the schedule required by Alam eda County): it \ncould strongly encourage PG&E (and Edison) to offer contract am endm ents that allow project \nowners to re tain the f ull value of their exis ting co ntrac ts for th eir historical (or contrac t-\nestim ated) d eliveries when they repo wer, and to pay short-run avoide d costs for additional \ndeliveries. The CPUC has alrea dy adopted contract am endm ents that provide for this, but the \nutilities have been unwilling to offer them broadly. \nB. Suggested Corrections for Accura cy \n \n There are a num ber of statem ents in th e Draft Energy Report that could be m ore \naccurate if modified. \n \n1. Repowering progress \n \nThe Draft IEPR states (p. 102), “To date, California has m ade only lim ited progress \ntoward repo wering wind facilities, w ith only 37 MW of repowered wind contra cts su bmitted \nby SCE to the CPUC as of July 2005.” In a ddition to those contracts (which have been \napproved), the CPUC ha s approved two repower contracts with PG&E totaling between 45.7 \nand 60.7 MW. (This includes th e 17.7 M W Diablo W inds project, which was recently \ncompleted, and a contract for the repowering of the Buena Vista pro ject, totaling betw een 28 \nand 43 MW , which is expected to be com pleted in m id-2006.) Thus, the statem ent could be \nmore accurately restated as fo llows: “To date, California h as made limited progress toward \nrepowering wind f acilities, with only 83-98 M W of repowered wind c ontrac ts sub mitted by \nSCE and PG&E to the C PUC as of August 2005.” \n \n2. Alam eda County requirem ents \n \nOn p. 102, the Draft Energy Report states, “C urrently, neither Alam eda County nor the \nwind industry proposes to repower the entire Altamont Pass; both are focused instead on \nrenewing existing perm its, with a proposed c ondition that repowering would only occur over \n13 years.” This statem ent would be more accura tely rephrased as follows: “Alam eda County \nadopted a requirem ent in Septem ber 2005 that will require all existing wind projects in \nAlam eda County to be repowered within 13 years.” \n \nOn p. 92, the Draft Energy Report states, “planni ng officials in the Altam ont area have \nplaced a m oratorium on perm its for both new a nd repowered wind facilities until they are \nconfident that steps have been taken to reduce bird deaths.” T his statem ent could m ore \n \n6 CPUC Docket R.04-04- 026, “Repl y Comments of the California Wind Energ y Association on the \nProposed Decision of ALJ Simon Regarding Long-Te rm RPS Plans” (October 3, 2005). \n \n 7 precis ely read, “planning officials in Alam eda County have placed a m oratorium on perm its in \nthat coun ty pending co mpletion of an EIR th at will cons ider repower ing as well as new \ntechnologies and siting possibilitie s. At the sam e time, county officials imposed a perm it \ncondition that requires perm it holders to repower 10% of their turbines in year four, 35% in \nyear eight, 85% in year 10, and 100% in year 13.” \n \n3. U.S. tax code restrictions on repowers \n \nThe last sentence in the following statem ent (p. 102) is not entirely accurate: \n \n“[P]rovisions in the U.S. Tax Code (Secti on 45) prevent repowere d wind f acilities with \nexisting standard offer contracts from qua lifying for the producti on tax credit unless \nthe contract is am ended so that any wind generation in excess of historical production \nlevels is e ither sold to th e utility at it s curren t avoided cos t or sold to a th ird \nparty.[ footnote om itted] This provis ion discoura ged wind operato rs from repowering \nbecause u tility avoided costs are m uch lo wer than curren t contract p rices. \n \nThe last sentence should be rephrased as fo llows: “This provision has discouraged wind \noperato rs from repowering because, in additi on to lim iting th e pric e paid for addition al \ndelive ries resulting f rom the repowe r, the utiliti es have, with a few exceptions, been un willing \nto allow developers to r etain the f ull valu e of their exis ting co ntracts for th eir cu rrent delivery \nlevels (or contract-estim ated deliveries) and have required proposed repowers to engage in \ncostly b idding processe s rathe r than f acilita te rep owers throu gh bilateral negotia tions .” \n \n \nIV. COMMENTS ON RPS BARRIERS, PROBL EMS & SOLUTIONS \n \nA. Some of the Barriers to Achievin g RPS Goals Identified in the Draft \nReport are On Target; Others Sho uld Be Modified \n \nWe share th e Draft Energy Report’s concern ( p. 92) that renewable energy procurem ent \nunder the Renewables Po rtfolio Stand ard (RPS) law is not pro ceeding as q uickly as needed to \nreach the state’s RPS goals by 2010. And we agr ee largely w ith th e Draft Report’s assessm ent \n(p. 89) of the barriers that m ust be overc ome for the state to m eet its RPS goals: \n \n• The lack o f long-term purchase agreemen ts for pow er. We agree th at this is a \nproblem , and that it stem s from other problem s that the Draf t Report ide ntifies (p. 92 ) – \nnamely, an overly com plex procurem ent pro cess for renewables (p. E-5) and unclear \nand non-transparent least-cost, best-fit pol icies employed by invest or-owned utilities \n(IOUs). \n \n• The need for new and/or upgraded transmis sion to acces s renew able resources \n(see subsections D and E, below, for more discussion on this issue), and \n \n• The impact of in tegrating larg e amount s of intermitten t renew able resources \ninto the e lectricity gr id. We urge the Comm ission to clar ify, however, that presently \nthe bar rier is the perception of impacts, rather than actual ones. As the Dr aft Report \n 8 notes elsewhere (p. 90 -91, p. 100), the operation al cons traints posed by interm ittent \nrenewables in the near term are m anageable and do not im pose significant costs on the \nsystem , and the Comm ission’s PIER program has a sophisticated research effort \nunderway th at will asses s the im pacts of integrating large am ounts of interm ittent \nrenewable resources into California’s syst em. Based on experience in other system s \nwith m uch higher wind energy penetrations than we have here, the Comm ission should \nreserv e judg ment as to whether a la rge incr ease in wind energ y on our sys tem will be a \nsignificant barrier to achieving RPS goals. \n \nWe agree th at the f ourth barrier iden tified in the Draf t Report – the lack of repow ering \nof aging w ind facilities – should be addressed to contribut e toward RPS goals and to reduce \nthe avian f atality leve ls unique to the A ltamont. However, the quantity of additional \ngeneration associated with repowers is sm all in c omparison to the over all RPS goals.7 \nTherefore, a failure of the ut ilities to secure additional en ergy through repowers should not, by \nitself, be co nsidered a major ba rrier to achieving RPS goals on a par with providing \ntransm ission access to major renewable resou rce areas o r simplifying the procurem ent process. \n \nB. We Agree With the R PS Implementation Problems Identified in th e Draft \nReport, and Encourage the Commission to Add Others \n \nThe Draft Energy Report (p. 92) has identifi ed three prim ary problem s with the RPS \nprogram : \n \n• The lack of transparency in the bidding, ranking, a nd contracting processes, \n• The administrative complexity of the program, and \n• The uneve n application of RPS targets to all r etail se llers in the state. \n \nWe agree th at these are m ajor problem s that req uire rem edies. W e would also id entify \nas prim ary problem s the CPUC’s i mplem entation of the transm ission planning and cost \nrecovery provisions of the RPS statute, and the developm ent of transm ission cost adders, \nwhich we discuss further below in subsections D and E. \n \nC. The Draft Report’s Proposed Solutions to RP S Problems Do Not Al ways \nAddress the Identified Barriers an d Problems \n \nSome of the Draft Energy Report’s propos als to improve the RPS i mplementation \nprocess are on target; others do not address th e barriers and problem s identified in th e Draf t \nReport or experienced by CalWEA m embers. \n \n1. The three options proposed to si mplify administra tion of the RPS \nprogram do not address the identified problems \n \n \n7 If the entire fleet of approxim ately 1,000 MW second- and t hird-generation tur bines were repowered, \nenergy production from those facilities would in crease by approximately one-third, adding the \nequivalent of a few hundred m egawatts of new wind generation to the sy stem . \n 9 The Draf t Report (p. 93 -94) iden tifies three options for sim plifying the adm inistration \nof the RPS program , none of which address the barriers and problem s prev iously id entified as \nmajor obstacles to achieving RPS goals, and a ll of which would be counter-productive. \nMoreover, these changes would re quire legis lative changes, whic h would divert years of tim e \nand energy f rom solving the real problem s. Thes e options should therefore be elim inated from \nthe final d raft report. \n \n(a) Option 1 - Eliminatin g the market price referen t (MP R) and supplementa l \nenergy payment (SEP) processes in favor of a standard reasonableness review process. \nWhile this change would sim plify the process, the Draft Report did no t identif y the MPR or \nSEP paym ent issues as a significant problem . Indeed, they are not: th e MPRs are transparen t \nfigures; they were developed in a fairly effi cient manner through a working group and without \nhearings; they are rela tively non-controversial; and they are not involved in the resource \nselection process (the MPR serves only as a dividing line between contract paym ents and SEP \npaym ents). To date, no contracts have required SEP paym ents, so this cannot explain the lack \nof signed contracts. W e would add that the MP R process should get easier as the CPUC gains \nexperience and estab lishes precedents; in add ition, the discussions this year on tim e-of-\ndelivery MP Rs are likely to reduce the num ber of MPRs to just one. \n \n(b) Option 2 - Creating a single cut-o ff con tract price belo w which contracts \nwould be judged reasonable, w ith co sts recoverable in utility rates. This methodology, \nemployed in the pre-RPS “interim ” procurem ents, is lik ewise a imed at the MPR/SEP issue, \nwhich is not the problem. In addition, taking th is step cou ld well c reate far m ore controversy \nand delay than the current MPR/ SEP process. The “cut-off” c ontract price would be highly \nsubjective and controversial – i ndeed, it would open up a fight that was se ttled (af ter long \nnegotia tions ) with th e MPR/SEP provisions in th e RPS legislation : the u tilities must sign \ncontracts up to the MPR price a nd must sign them until the SEP funds a re exhaus ted. Given \ncurrent gas price forecasts, e xhausting the funds ought not to be an issue well past 2010. \n \n(c) Option 3 - Aw arding public funds fo r RPS contracts through auctions for \nproduction incentives (with awards conditioned on rece iving contracts through the R PS \nsolicitation process). Once again, this solution ta rgets a non-problem : the application of SEP \npaym ents, which no contract has so far requir ed. Returning to th e Comm ission’s au ction \nprocess for subsidy paym ents when subsidies ar e not required obviously fails to address any \nreal p roblem . \n \nWe also note that a few other recomm enda tions m ade in the Draft Report (p. 94 and \n96) are already being addresse d by the CPUC. Delivery flexib ility provisions adopted in \nCPUC Decision 05-07-0 39 (July 21, 2005) appro ving utility com pliance p lans and RFOs will \nenable inter-utility trades of renewables and shaped products, a nd a recent alternate proposed \ndecision will, if adopted, enable the use of tradable renewable energy credits (RECs). \n \nRegarding the Draft Report’s recom mendation (p. 94) that shaped contracts should \ninclude the stored and shaped products offere d by the Bonneville Power A dministration which \ncan delay deliveries by as m uch as a week, we ur ge the Comm ission to add a caution that such \nproducts should only be approved if it can be show n that they cause total in-state deliveries of \n 10 power to increase over the status quo in am ounts equivalent to the purchased power. \nOtherwise, California does not receive the in-state benefits of reduced in-state gas-fired \ngeneration. \n \n2. The Draft Report should focus on the useful solutions that it iden tifies \n \nWhile the D raft Energy Report highlights the above solutions, which we believe would \nnot be helpf ul, it underplays other recommendati ons which do usefully address th e identified \nproblem s and barriers. These recommendations shoul d receive greater play in the final report. \n \n(a) Standardi zed contracts w ould si mplify the procureme nt process. We strongly \nsupport the Draft Report’s recomm endation (p. 94) that the C PUC should develop standard \npower purchase contracts. CalW EA has consistently advocated greater standardization of \nterms since the incep tion of RPS i mplem entation. Unfortunately, our positions have been \nopposed by the utilities and not been adopted. We hope that this will chan ge in view o f the \nextens ive delays asso ciated with the recent renew able RFPs of all three utilities, which bear \ntestam ent to the need to s tream line th e contract negotiation process. W e continue to believe \nthat the complicated Edison Electric Institut e (“E EI”) form contrac t--an u nnecessa rily \ncomplicated and often inapplicab le set of contract term s and conditions--should not be used as \nthe basis for RPS contracts. The utilities do deserve som e credit, however, for taking steps on \ntheir own to reduce bidding hurdles; for exam ple, SCE abandoned the EEI contract in its latest \nsolicitation, and PG&E and SCE ha ve lowered their bid deposit requirements. Much more \ncould and should be done, however , to reduce the cost and tim e associated with bidding, which \nserves to reduce the num ber of participants and drive up costs. \n \n(b) Grea ter transparen cy and uniformity o f the bid evalua tion process is \nnecessary. We strongly support the Dr aft Report’s call (p. E -3, 45) for more open and \ntranspa rent utility p rocurement processes and (p. 92) for m ore consistent and transp arent le ast-\ncost, best-fit m ethods used by IOUs to rank RPS bidders. Bidders’ confidence in the process is \nunderm ined by the inability to de termine whether IOUs are selec ting truly least-cost, best-fit \nprojects, or whether there is sign ificant subje ctivity in th e pro cess. Reduced confidence in the \nprocess redu ces the num ber of partic ipants in the process, wh ich redu ces com petition and \ndrives up costs. W e believe that the renewa bles and non-renewables procurem ent processes \nshould result in procurem ents that together meet RPS goals and overa ll energy needs at the \nleast-cost. The utilities should not select higher-cost renewables in order to m eet a particular \nsystem need if a com bination of low er-cost renewables and non-renewables can m eet those \nneeds at a lo wer overall cost. \n \n With a very transparent pr ocess, we would support the elimination of th e \nProcurement Review Group (PRG) . In the absence of such a process, however, the PRG is \nnecessary to provide som e degree of oversight of the process . The PRG has becom e an excuse \nfor secrecy, however, an d it should b e replaced w ith a transp arent pro cess. \n \n(c) The CAISO should be involved in pla nning transmission to meet R PS goals. \nWe agree with the Draft Report’s recomm endations (pp. 86, 99) that (a) the CPUC, the \nCommission and the CAISO should immediately investigate changes to the CA ISO tariff that \n 11 would allow recognition of transm ission needs no t only for reliability and econom ic projects, \nbut also to access renewable projects to m eet RPS goals, and (b) the three agencies should \ncooperate to revise the tran smission cost adder process for R PS procurem ent to m ore \naccurately reflect trans mission costs and re duce existing dis incentiv es for renewab les. \n \nIn recent comments at the CPUC, CalW EA enc ouraged that comm ission to request that \nthe CAISO consider the necessity of m eeting the state’s renewable energ y goals in th e \nplanning efforts it has underway.8 Specifically, the CAISO c ould in tegrate the work that it has \nalready done for the Tehachapi Collaborative Study Group (TCSG), and any sim ilar work for \nthe Im perial Valley Study Group, into their larger effort. W e also encouraged the CP UC to \nconsider taking form al action at FERC to ensu re that the CAISO’s future planning efforts \nencom pass state po licy g oals. \n \nIf the CAISO can proactively consider th e transm ission upgrades that w ould m ost \nefficiently connect th e largest con centrations of le ast-cost renewable resources, it could help to \nsolve th e problem s identif ied in the Draf t Repor t (p. 99)—nam ely, the failure of the C PUC to \nconsider the network benefits associated w ith transm ission upgrades, and the inappropriate \npractice of some utilities in load ing u pgrade cos ts onto renew ables b ids. For exam ple, a \nprelim inary analys is by the CAISO of a Tehach api-Midway connection recently prep ared for \nthe TCSG shows that the north-of-P ath-26 c ongestion previously estim ated by PG&E is \nvirtu ally elim inated when the Tehachapi wind res ource is effectiv ely in tegrated into the overa ll \nnetwork. The congestion estim ated by PG&E has resulted in the application of significant \ntransm ission adders to th e bids subm itted to PG&E f or Tehachapi wind re sources. If the \nCAISO can estim ate the costs and benefits associ ated with th e network upgrades required to \naccomm odate the s tate’s larges t renewable re source areas, it m ay reduce the im portan ce of \nquantifying network benefits and congestion costs. \n \n(d) The Draft Energy Report contains other usefu l reco mmen dations. Finally, we \nsupport the Draft Report’s recomm endations that the CPUC shoul d require IOUs to procure a \nprudent contract-risk m argin to avoid under-procu rement of renewable energy (p. 94); that the \nCPUC shoul d expeditiously com plete com pliance rules for ES Ps and CCAs (p. 90), and that \nthe legislature should adopt consis tent statewide RPS rules for public ly-owned utilities (p. 95). \n \n3. The Commission should identify addi tional actions that it could take \nto accelerate the RPS process \n \n In addition to the recomm endations addre ssed above, there are se veral addition al ways \nin which the Comm ission can and should advance the RPS goals, which should be reflected in \nthe final report. \n \n(a) The Commission should engage the CAI SO in its Intermittency Analysis \nProject. The Draft Energy Report references (p. 100) the work that the PIER program will be \nconducting over the next year to better understand and address the im pacts of integrating large \namounts of i ntermittent renewable resources in to California’s system . We strongly su pport \n \n8 “Comments of the Califo rnia Wind En ergy Association on Preliminary Scoping Me mo,” CP UC \nDocket I.05-0 9-005 (Septe mber 30, 20 05). \n 12 this ef fort. However, we are con cerned that this effort – the Interm ittency Analysis P roject \n(IAP) – is m issing an important opportunity to engage the CAISO at the highest levels to \nensure that it supports the m ethods that will be employed in the IAP effor t. The Draft Report \nstates (at p. 101) that “the CA ISO should undertake a research initiative to address m inimum \nload issu es, includ ing forecasting future m inimum load problem s, the number of annual even ts, \nand the dep th of the problem ” – but these issues w ill be s tudied in the IAP ef fort. Rather than \nencourage the CAISO to duplicate efforts, th e Comm ission should include the CAISO in its \nefforts to en sure tha t it will be com fortab le with the resu lts and can immediately take further \naction s from there. \n \n(b) The Commis sion s hould produce syst em integration cost information for \napplication to RPS bids. The RPS statu te requ ires tha t the u tilities consid er the sy stem \ninteg ration costs and cap acity v alues associated with renewable resource bids. To date, the \nCPUC has r elied upon infor mation from the CEC’s “California RPS Integration Cost Analysis \n– Phase I” study, which was an analysis of th e costs associated with existing renewable \nresources on the system . The decis ions that the C PUC must m ake on transm ission expansions, \nas well as ap provals of utility-s elected com petitiv e bids, will r equire integ ration co st \ninformation rela ted to signif icant ad dition al qua ntities of renewable re sources. As f ar as we \ncan determ ine, the Comm ission has no effort underway to produce this infor mation, which is \nneeded to advance the state’s RPS goals. We strongly encourage the Commission to ensure \nthat this inform ation is produced either as part of the IAP, or from a separate effort. This need \nshould be reflected in the final Energy Report. \n \n(c) The Commis sion s hould ensure that WREGIS tracks energy deliveries. The \ndraft report states (p. 97) that California should move toward full REC trading in the state and \nwestern region once WREGIS is in p lace and operational, and should, among other things, \n“assure energy is actually delivered. ” The Co mmission has not, however, taken steps to ensure \nthat W REGIS will ac tually have th e capability to track ene rgy delive ries,9 even though the \nNew England tracking system has dem onstrat ed that su ch tracki ng is possible. The \nComm ission should immediately take steps to ens ure that W REGIS will have this function. If \nCalifornia is to rea lize benefits from out-of-state generation, we m ust be sure that the power is \ndelivered to the state. \n \n (d) The Commis sion s hould develop gu idelin es for issuin g SEP payments. The \nComm ission has not yet develope d rules for how it will apply supplem ental energy paym ents \n(SEPs) to winning RPS bids that require them . Though we do not anticipate a great dem and \nfor SEP paym ents any tim e soon, the Comm ission can ensure that there w ill be no delays \nshould SEPs be required. One of the more difficu lt issues to be resolved is how SEPs on a 20-\nyear con tract will b e converted to a 1 0-year p ayment stream . \n \nD. The Draft Report’s Criticisms of FERC o n its Tehachapi Trunk Line \nDecision are Misguided \n \n \n9 A Commission staff person inf ormed us that the RFP soliciting bids to devel op the WRE GIS \nelectronic tra cking s ystem is limited to tracking renewable attributes (i.e., RECs) and not energ y. \n 13 The Draft Energy Report (at pp. E-8, 85, a nd 90) unfairly critic izes the FE RC for \nhaving “removed the prim ary instrum ent the stat e could have used to address transm ission \nconstraints for renewables” and for “effec tively bar[ring] the advanced planning and \nconstruction of transm ission facilities.” \n \nFirst, the FE RC was obligated to d eny Sout hern California E dison’s proposal for a new \ncatego ry of transm ission facility (called a “renewable-resou rce trunk line”) because SCE \ncharacterized it as being devoid of network bene fits. For FERC to have charged the cost of \nsuch an upgrade to transm ission custom ers as requested would have violated a long-standing \nand basic principal of the Federal Power Act: transm ission custom ers cannot be required to \npay for something that they do not benefit from . \n \n Second, FERC deserves significant credit for using its legal f lexibility to grant SCE’s \nrequest to enable it to build transm ission f acilities in advance o f generator interconnection \nrequests without incurring penalt ies should the f acilities be abandoned or cancelled. FERC \nhad no oblig ation to do this; it reached far be yond what it had ever done before, and should be \ncommended for it. In so doing, FERC did in fact enable advance planning and construction of \ntransm ission facilities by transm ission owners. \n \nThese issues are exp lained in detail in a memo analyzing the F ERC decision by \nCalWEA’s transm ission counsel, Scott Hem pling, which we attach here as Appendix 2. \n \nE. The Commission Should Focus on the Tools Available to the State to \nAchieve California’s R PS Transmission Goals \n \nRather than unfairly criticizing FER C, the final Energy Report should focus on the \nother recomm endations that the Draft Report m akes related to this issue -- m odifying the \nCAISO tariff to consider state policy goals (p. 86), and encouraging com prehensive \ntransm ission planning efforts by the Co mmission, the CPUC and the CAISO. \n \nThe final Energy Report should also expand its focus to two additiona l issues: the need \nfor the CPUC to use its statutory authority under PU Code Se ction 399.25 to (a) promote \ntransm ission upgrades that provide network bene fits while tapping the state’s m ajor renewable \nresource areas (with co sts therefore recovera ble from all transm ission custom ers), and (b) \nensure that those upgrades are fina nced by the transm ission owner. \n \nThis statutory provision of th e RPS legislation recognizes th e discretion inherent in the \nFERC’s criteria for “n etwork” st atus, providing the CPUC with th e ability to put before FERC \nargum ents that a facility should be designated “network” when that facility has both network \nand non-network characteristics. \n \nHad the CPUC m ade be tter us e of this code section, it could have found that SCE’s \n“trunk line” (Segm ent 3 of the Antelope project) has network characteris tics as well as gen-tie \ncharacteristics10 or, had the Comm ission not found such be nefits, it could have ordered SCE to \n \n10 Evidence of Segment 3’s network bene fits was put forward at FERC by CalWEA. \n \n 14 reconfigure the proposed facility so that it provided network benefits. S CE is now studying \njust such a reconfiguration.11 If taken ef fectively, these step s will resu lt in th e CPUC’s ability \nto meet California’s RPS goals without the need for m ajor changes in F ERC’s current \napproach to transm ission cost recovery.12 \n \n \n Respectf ully subm itted, \n \n \n \n ___________/s/____________ \n Nancy Rader \n Executive Director \n California Wind Energy Association \n 1198 Keith Avenue \n Berkeley, C A 94708 \n (510) 845-5077 \n nrader@calwea.org \n \n October 10, 2005\n \n11 SCE’s Gary Schoon yan stated at the Septem ber 12, 2005, E nergy Action Plan meeting that SCE is \nstudying a connection bet ween Seg ment 3 and t he Midway substat ion, which, he said, would provide \nthe network benefits that FERC requires if transm ission custom ers are to be charged for the fa cilities. \nCalWEA stro ngly supports this effort. \n \n12 For further discussion of these issue s, see Note 8, supra (CalWEA’ s comment s in CPUC D ocket \nI.05-09- 005). \n 15 APPENDIX 1 \n \nComments of the Califor nia Wind Energy Ass ociation \non \nCEC Staff Response to P ublic Comments \non the st aff report titled Assessment of Avi an Mortali ty from Collisions and Electrocutions \nwritten i n support of the 2005 E nvironmental Per forma nce Rep ort and the 2005 Int egrated \nEnergy P olicy Report \n (Staff Resp onse dated August 3 1, 2005 and poste d September 14, 2005) \n \nOctober 1 0, 2005 \n \nWhile we app reciate the st aff’s efforts to resp ond to the wind ind ustry’s c omments, \nstaff’s re sponse can be character ized a s an attempt t o obfu scate t he issue s to which they \npurport to re spond, even resort ing to an ad homine m attack.1 While volu minous, the Staff \nRespon se do es not add ress CalWE A’s thr ee maj or areas of concern : \n \n1. The 20 04 PIE R study, whic h forms the basis for staff policy reco mmendat ions, \nsensationaliz ed wind-facil ity-related avian mo rtality at the Altamont. The study was not \ndesigned to a ccurately cal culate fa cility-related avian mortality. Such a study would need to \ncontrol for background avian mort ality, use consistent search areas, empl oy more frequent \nsearch inter vals, and re move any car casses found so as not to dou ble- (or even triple-) count \nscavenged and moved c arcasses. These issue s are d iscussed in detail below. T he underlying \ndata used t o identify \"problem turbine s\" suffers from the sa me absence of controls f or \nincon sistent search frequencies and search areas, in consistent stu dy duration s, the likelihood \nof carcass double- (or tripl e-) counting, and potential ly even background mortal ity.2 \n \n \n1 Rather than adequately addre ss her specif ic, docu mented cr iticisms, the Sta ff Resp onse \nquestions (p. 6) the creden tials of one of the author s of our r emarks, Dr. Carol Weisskopf. \nStaff f ails to menti on that Weissk opf h as been con ducting inte rdisciplin ary stud ies with wildl ife \nbiologists since 1985, incl uding publi shed works. \n \n2 At the Octo ber 6 I EPR hearing, pr oponents of this st udy asse rted that (even if the mort ality \nestimate s are wrong), the mort ality associatio ns with particul ar turbines ( on which the \nproposed mitigation measures are b ased) are co rrect because the y were based on actual \ncarcasses found, not esti mates. We dis agree. Th e mortality a ssociations suffer fro m many of \nthe same flaws as the mortality estimates. \nCarcass coun ts were used to compare the relative ha zard of a variety of factors (e.g., \nturbine type, landscape features, tower type, etc.). The accu racy of this comp arison is \ncompromi sed by the variability in numbers of s earches, intervals betwee n searches, num ber of \nyears searches too k place and the ce rtainty that a mortality was att ributabl e to a particula r \nturbine. Fo r instan ce, search interval s varied from 13 to 139 days, and mo re carca sses would be \nfound at turbi ne or lan dscape feature s searche d at more fre quent intervals. It is likely that many \nfeature s ident ified as mo re hazard ous are an artifact o f these variati ons. The stud y authors \nacknowled ge that adjust ments were m ade to co rrect for the di fference in se arch eff ort, but it \ndoes n ot appear to us that the adjustments were made accu rately enough to ju stify re moving \nor relocat ing turbines. (Th e level of accuracy of the adjust ments i s a quest ion that we would \nlike the inde pendent review to answer.) \n One thing is clear: when a large d ata set is bein g used to determine relatively small \ndifference s in the statist ics, it is impe rative to minimize the va riability in the things over w hich \nthe resear cher has c ontrol -- in this cas e, most importantly the search inte rvals, search \ndiameter and the seasonal issue. As we have shown, there were large varian ces in each of \nthese are as. \n \n CalWEA Appendix 1 - Pag e 1 2. Staff i gnores the differ ence between the tu rbine m odels oper ating in the Alta mont and \nthose use d elsewhere. Ne w wind parks are not constructed with obsolete turbines. A \ntheoretical siting model, based on tiny turbin es and faulty data, cannot, therefore, form the \nbasis for eith er Alta mont-s pecific or st atewide s iting guideline s or require ments. \n \n3. Staff’s re commendat ion th at statew ide guideline s should be ado pted to guide the \nsiting, oper ation and monitoring of new wind develo pments is a solution in sea rch of a \nproble m. There is n o indication that C EC staff or consultants have studied local sitin g \nprocesses in Calif ornia, le t alone pro vided eviden ce that they are not workin g. Wind fac ility-\nrelated av ian mort ality in the Altam ont is unique an d isolated. And yet, staff has used the \nAltamont pr oblem a s a backdro p for recommen dations for statew ide av ian gu idelines and t he \ndevelop ment of m itigation measures outside of the Altamont. Staff ha s not st udied s iting \nprocesses outside of the Al tamont, let alone supported state ments such a s “developing \nmitigation measure s for implementati on would allo w for continu ed use of the wind resources in \nSolano Count y,”3 which erroneou sly implies that cont inued use of the wind resource in Solan o is \nnot presently possible, an d overl ooks the fact that S olano C ounty is alre ady imposing m itigation \nmeasures for avian impacts. \n \nThe staf f finds “puzzling ” a request tha t its recommenda tion for statewide guideli nes should \nbenefit by a full and adequate review by the pu blic before becoming Co mmission policy (PDF-\npage 1 1) despite the fa ct that staf f did not indi cate, in docu ment s feed ing int o the I EPR, which \nset of e xisting guidelin es ought to be a dopted f or statewide us e, how they sho uld be applie d, \nor whether st aff mean s to sugge st that an entire ly new set of gu idelines sh ould be develop ed.4 \nMoreo ver, the only justifi cation staff offer f or such guideline s is that “Current ly, siting win d \ndevelopment s at the local level is in consist ent.” (PDF-page 11.) Inconsisten cy, however, is \nperfectly ap propriate a s it merely refle cts completely different local circumstan ces requ iring \ndifferent siting policie s. \n \nDiscussi on of Item 1: The 2004 st udy was not designed t o accurately calculate facility-\nrelated avian mortality \n \nThere are several indicat ions in the Staff Resp onse that the 2004 P IER study by Smallwood and \nThelander was not designe d to estimate Altamo nt Pass wind- facility-related avian mortality.5 \nYet, staff d oes not dir ectly acknowledg e this fa iling or propose to retract the e stimate s that \nthe study gratuitously produced. The estimates are exaggerated and have bee n widely quoted \nin the medi a. \n \nWe would like to state on ce ag ain that we do not deny that wind facility-related avian \nfatalities in the Altam ont Pass are o f great con cern. Inflam mato ry estim ates of those fat alities, \nhowever, do nothing to solve the proble m. \n \n \n3 California E nergy Commis sion Staf f Report, “ 2005 Environment al Perfor mance Report o f \nCaliforn ia’s E lectrical Syst em” at p. 16 (CEC-700-2005-016). June 2005. \n \n4 In the Staff Respon se at PDF-page 149, it does f inally becom e clear that sta ff intends to \ndevelop a wholly new set of gu ideline s, duplicat ing years of effort by the NWCC and the CEC’s \nown sta ff. \n \n5 See, e.g., Staff Re sponse PDF-page 1 10, wherein a memo from Linda Spie gel and Shawn \nSmallwood st ates, “we bel ieve it is inappropriat e to conve rt our fatality dat a to mortality \nestimate s … We disagree with your stated in tention to convert these data t o mort ality \nestimate s at the turbine string or individual turbine l evel, includin g turbines wh ere fatal ity \nsearches wer e perfo rmed less than one year.” \n \n CalWEA Appendix 1 - Pag e 2 The next two subse ctions expla in the inadeq uacy of the staff re sponses to C alWEA’s \ndocumented errors on gol den eagle mortality estimates and the use of e xcessive corre ction \nfactors as exemplified by the cowbird mortality estimate; the third sub section explain s why, \ncontr ary to st aff’s explan ation, ba ckground mort ality should have been as sessed at the \nAltamont. \n \na. Golde n eagle example \n \nThe mo st basic of exaggerations is foun d in th e 2004 PIER study’s estimate s of golden eagle \nmortality. In an attach ment to this app endix, Wei sskopf e xplains why the Staff Respon se fails \nto answe r our charge that the study inflated the number of gold en eagle deat hs at the \nAltamont by a factor of three. \n \nIn summ ary, Weis skopf had shown a s ignificant di screpancy betw een two sets of dat a used in \nthe 2004 stud y, one of which cau sed th e overall golden eagle mortality rate to greatly excee d \nthat produ ced by all previous studies w e have seen, includin g an NREL rep ort by the same \nauthor s now i n press . The 2004 study explain s that t he high er mortality rate s in that report as \ncompared to an NREL report by the same authors that used some of the same data is due to a \nparticular set of turbine s that the authors cla im subst antially ex ceeds the m ortality ove r most \nof the rest of the pass. Bu t Weissk opf showed th at this set of turbines is not within the data \nset that produced the high er mortality rate , and therefore cannot explain the higher rate. \nInstead of attemptin g to determin e the source of th e discrepan cy between the two sets of \ndata—which r esulted in the fact or-of-three erro r—the Staff Resp onse in stead accu ses Weis skopf \nof tran sposing figu res in h er calcul ations. Bu t in the attached re sponse, Weisskopf explain s \nthat, first, th ere was no such transposition an d, more importantly, the suppose dly transpose d \nfigure s are irrelevant because they should have been excluded from the calcul ation. \n \nMoreo ver, sta ff continues t o state that mortality estimate s were d erived from fatalit ies caused \nby collision with moving bl ades, and tha t carcasses “show injurie s specific to th is source suc h \nas severed b ody parts and torsos cut in half” (Staff R esponse, PDF-page 3). Staff goes on to \nstress that “ fatalit ies that could not be attribut ed to turbine blade collision wer e omitted fr om \nthe analysi s” (Staff Resp onse, PDF-page 3). This claim is astonishing given that, of the Set 2 \nturbine ca rcasses used t o develop Altamont mortality estim ates (staff p rotestations aside, the \nSet 1 data has not yet bee n made available to us ), 43% were classified as feath ers, 3% a s old \nrema ins, 18% as complete carcasses, 2% as dec apitated, 1% as d ismembered and 12% as wings. \n \nIn the field comments, 48% descr ibed t he carc ass as having unkn own injuries becau se the \ncarcass wa s missing, 4% s tated si mply unknown injuries, 4% descr ibed the ca rcass as ha ving \nunknown injuries due t o scavenging, an d 9% were described as having unk nown injuries because \npart or most of the ca rcass was missing (e.g., “Unknown injuries. Only tail fea thers foun d.” \n“Unknown inj uries. Only leg bones and few feat hers present.” “Unknown injuries. Part of \ncarcass missing and decayed.” “Unknown injuries. Only partial left wing, bon es and \nfeathers.”). \n \nThe nature of the injury was listed for only 47 of 131 carcasses. Of these, 6 (13%) were listed as \nhavin g no inj ury apparent. Only 41 (31% ) had in juries that could b e considere d eviden ce of \nwind fa cility- related m ortality. \n \nb. Cowbir d example \n \nWhen CalWEA reviewed t he 2004 PIER report, we questioned how 919 carcasses found during 4+ \nyears o f a stu dy could lead to spec ies-specific mortality estim ates that added u p to mo re than \n10,900 birds per year. We docu mented cowb irds as an exam ple of how the fou nd car casses \n CalWEA Appendix 1 - Pag e 3 were extra polated into overall mo rtalit y estim ates.6 The cowb ird was sele cted becau se the \nreport pre sented a turbine mort ality fa ctor for cowbirds in the Set 2 data, pr oviding a s imple \nexample as there was onl y one carcass in the Set 2 data, and the Set 2 data w ere the only data \nto which CalWEA was provided ac cess. The absurdit ies of the distance of the carcass to th e \nnearest turb ine, the error in the turbin e power rating and the magnitude of the final mort ality \nestimate were product s of the selection , not the reason for it. \n \nStaff’s focus on these i ssues distracts from the ir failure to con vincingly add ress the ma in point \nof the examp le: that an exce ssive number of overly large correction fa ctors was used f or the \nSet 2 turbine s. The 20 04 PIER report was f orced to employ an e xcessively large scavenger \ncorrection factor be cause the se arch in tervals ( i.e., number of days between searches) for the \nSet 2 turbine s were three month s, as compared t o the two- to four-week intervals that are \nstandard practice in mode rn avian mort ality stud ies. Shorter se arch interval s avoid the need to \nuse large scavenger corre ction factors. The NWCC Guideline s do not include r ecommended \nstudy intervals, but do recommend (on p. 22) th at study method s be selected t o minimize bi as \nin the outcome of the study, and that bias can be t olerated only if it is relatively small, \nmeasurable, or consistent among study areas , which are not ch aracteristics of the Set 2 data \nextrap olations. \n \nRegard ing some of the pa rticula rs: \n \n• CalWEA continues to believe a carcass found 430 fe et from the nearest turbine should \nnot have been used in mortality calcul ations, and that doublin g the mort ality estimate \nis particul arly unjustified given the dist ance betwee n the carcass and the turbine. \n \n• The Staff Re sponse (PDF-p age 1 60) states, “The mortality esti mates for bird species, \nincludin g the brown-head ed cowb ird, were mad e only for bird species with more than \none turbine-caused fatalit y.” This state ment is at odds with the 2004 PIER report (p. \n70), which p rovides a Set 2 turbine mortality fa ctor for the s ingle cowbi rd found in that \nset. \n \n• The Staff Re sponse adds ( PDF-page 162), “It is not true that only one turbine s tring \nincluded a br own-headed cowb ird, and it is not true that Smallwood and Thel ander \n(2004) m istakenly identifi ed a 65-kW tur bine as a 150-kW turbine model. ” The CalWEA \ncowb ird document nowhere states that only one string included a brown-headed \ncowb ird, alth ough the dat a and the 2004 re port both indicate that only one cowbird \ncarcass was found in the Set 2 turbines. The error in turbine MW value was al so \nidentif ied independently in ”Reply Co mments of Cal ifornia Wind C ompanies on the \nCommittee W orkshop of Ju ne 27-28, 2005” (p. 59). \n \nIn closin g comment s, the Staff Res ponse (PDF-page 167) state s, “Reportin g the range o f \nestimate s as well as the a ctual number of fat alities gives the reviewer all the facts. We isskopf \ncould have made her argument usin g the lower range rather than the higher range, and not \ndoing so was mislead ing.” Although this statemen t is not relevant to the docu mentation of the \ncowb ird fatality extrap olations, we agree with the comment. On the other han d, CalWEA’s \nfocus on the high-end m ortality esti mate is consistent with widesp read rep orting of the high-\nend mort ality estim ates of all birds an d raptor death s in the 2004 PIER report, which are \nrepeated in C EC staf f documents, pre sentation s to planning commissioners, lit igant fil ings and \nmedia report s. The general public does not he ar, for ex ample, abo ut the 3 63 raptor c arcasses \nfound during more than four years of st udy; rather, they hear about the estimated 880 to \n1,300 annu al raptor deaths in the Altamont. \n \n6 For exampl e (looking at set 2 carcasses only), the cowbird turn ed into 300 cowbirds, \neach burr owing owl turned into 6 0, and each bla ckbird turned i nto 12 0. \n CalWEA Appendix 1 - Pag e 4 \nc. B ackgroun d mortal ity \n \nAmong the ju stifications for omitting assessment of backgr ound a vian m ortality, CEC staff r efer \n(p. 162) to other studie s, e.g., one at B uffalo Ridge in Minnesota, that dis count backgr ound \nmortality. B ut circu mstances at other area s do no t justify the same pract ice at the Altamont. \nThere are a n umber of differences, for example, between the avi an situat ion at Buffalo Rid ge \nand the Altamont. \n \nBuffalo Ridge carcass counts were low a t both refere nce and turbi ne sites, an d there were no \navian concerns at Buffal o Ridge even w ithout adjustment for background mortality. There was \nno need fo r discussions o f turbine di smantlin g or relocat ions, operational curt ailment, \ncontr ibutions to mit igation funds or law suits. Sin ce these opt ions are under di scussion in the \nAltamont, a c loser investigation of the Buffalo Ridge data i s warr anted. \n \nOf the 5, 322 fatality sear ches at Bu ffalo Ridge, 46.6% took plac e at referen ce sites and 5 3.4% \nat turbine s ites.7 On refe rence site s, 31 carcasses were found (0. 0125 carcasses/search) and 55 \ncarcasses (0.0194 carcasses/search) w ere found at turbine s ites. The three phase s of the \nBuffalo R idge project had different mortality estimat es, with phase 1 having an annual \nmortality of 0.98 bird s per turbine, phase 2 h aving 2.27 bird s per turbine, an d phase 3 w ith \n4.45 bird s per turbine. Th e reference site avian m ortality esti mate was 1. 10 deaths per \nturbine-equivalent site per year, higher than that for the phase 1 t urbines. Adjusting f or \nbackg round r ates would h ave completely eliminate d turbine-relat ed avian mortality for the \nphase 1 turbines, reduced by half the mortality estimate for the phase 2 turbin es, and reduced \nby one quart er the mort ality estimate for the phase 3 turbine s. \n \nBecause they were so low, Buffalo Rid ge mort ality estimates, unadjusted or n ot, were of lit tle \nconsequence, so elimin ating the cost for referenc e site searches w as an ea sy de cision to m ake. \nIf carcasses were found a t reference sites in the Altamont equivalent to half or one quarter of \nthe numbers found at turbine sites, the consequenc es would be n o longer trivial, and the cost \nfully justified. Unlike the Buffalo R idge case, however, the 2004 PIER study ne ver investigat ed \nbackground mort ality. \n \n[Please see separate Attach ment to this appendix.]\n \n7 Johnson G.D ., W.P.

SCE labels these upgrades S egment 1, Segm ent 2 and Segm ent 3.3 \n \nIn addition to roll-in, SC E sought, for all th ree segm ents, FERC' s comm itments for full \nrecovery of prudently-incurred costs, regardless of whether pot ential wind generation develops \nor SCE abandons or cancels one or m ore of the segm ents. SCE sought this comm itment because \nFERC has a preceden t requiring a utility to bea r half the prude nt cost of a projec t where the \nproject is abandoned or canceled du e to lack of dem and. The intent of this policy is to assure \nthat u tilities m anage their busines s risks carefully rather than view the ratepayer as the guarantor \nof all cost recovery. \n \n1 Southern California Edison Company , \"Order on Petition for Declaratory Order,\" Docket No. \nEL05-80- 000, 112 FERC p ara. 61,014 (July 1, 2005). \n2 ARoll-in @ is the ter m of art used to describe the inclus ion of particular costs in the cost of service \nused to set a utilit y's rates. In the conte xt of u pgrade s caused by interconnec ting generators, the opposite \nof \"roll-in\" is \"direct assignment.\" Direct assign ment means the int erconnecting generator pays for the \nupgrade; \"roll -in\" m eans that all transm ission user s (including the i nterconnecting generator o r its \ncusto mer) pa y for the upgrade. \n3 These three seg ments are described in the Appendix to this m emorandum . \n CalWEA Appendix 2 - Pag e 1 \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 2 \na) Segments 1 and 2 \n \nFERC approved roll-in because the upgrades ar e integrated with, and operate in parallel \nwith, the transmission network. FERC stated (par a. 36, citing SCE's affidavit submitted by Jorge \nChacon): \n \n\"36. Segments 1 and 2 are upgrades to existing, high-voltage, network \ntransmission facilities or upgrades that will operate in parallel with existing \nhigh-voltage, network transmission facilities and these two segments will be transmission facilities that can be full y integrated with the CAISO-Controlled \nGrid when constructed and placed under CAISO Operational Control.\" \n \n\"37. Segment 1 includes a new 25.6 mile 500 kV transmission line between the existing Antelope and Pardee substations , single and double circuit towers that \nwill be energized initially at 220 kV, and an expansion of the Antelope substation \nto accommodate the new 500 kV rating. Segment 2 includes a new 17.8 mile 500 \nkV transmission line between the existing Antelope and Vincent substations and \nupgrades such as transformers, circuit breakers, and disconnect switches \nnecessary at both substations to terminate the new transmission line. These two \nsegments are not radial in nature, and will be part of the looped transmission system where the energy would flow from their substations (from Antelope to \nPardee substations for Segment 1 and from Antelope to Vincent substations for Segment 2), but can be reversed depe nding on the season and the generation on \nline. These new facilities will be integr ated with the existing Big Creek 220 kV \ncorridor and the available capacity of these facilities will be used for multiple \npurposes, e.g., serve load and increase tr ansfer capacity for existing generation \nfacilities.\" \n \n\"38. According to SCE, Segments 1 and 2 will provide additional benefits to the \ntransmission grid; for example, they will increase the transfer capability, eliminate \nor mitigate thermal and transient stabili ty problems under certain conditions, and \ncan be relied upon for CAISO scheduling purposes. No other party disputes this \nassertion. In addition, the CAISO will be ab le to provide servic e to Participating \nTransmission Owners as well as other transmission customers over the two \nsegments. Segments 1 and 2 will provide cap ability and reliability benefits to the \ntransmission grid and could be relied on for coordinated operation of the grid. \nTherefore, we find that Segments 1 a nd 2 are network upgrades, the costs of \nwhich are discussed further below, a nd may be recovered through SCE's TRR.\" \n \nFERC promised that there will not be a prude nce disallowance if th ere is cancellation or \nabandonment should sufficient wind generation not appear. Para. 58 (\"We will, however, grant \nSCE's request and allow it to r ecover 100 percent of th e prudent cost (as discussed above) of \nSegments 1 and 2 even if these faci lities are abandoned or cancelled.\"). \n \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 3 FERC deferred ruling on whether the size of Segments 1 and 2 is prudent; SCE can \nre-ask for this ruling after it obtains a certificate of conve nience and necessity from the \nCalifornia PUC. See para. 57: \n \n\"... The CPUC has not completed its revi ew for the certific ate(s) of public \nconvenience and necessity. Nor has the CA ISO, as regional system operator, \nweighed in on all aspects of this project . Accordingly, we will defer on the issue \nof advance prudence with regard to the appropriate sizing of Segments 1 and 2 \nuntil after the CPUC has granted SCE th e necessary certificate(s) of public \nconvenience and necessity\" (also noting, in n.43, that \"SCE is not seeking an \nadvance prudence call on the actual cost of the Antelope Project\").” \n \nb) Segment 3 \n \nFERC denied all of SCE =s requests because the f acility is a gen-tie which does not benefit \nthe network. FERC expressly relied on SCE's own statements: \n \nGiven the information provided by SCE, we find that Segment 3 is not a network \nupgrade and therefore, not eligible for rolled -in rate treatment. Further, as noted \nby various intervenors, these appear to be generation-tie facilities, and our \nprecedent has been that it would be improper to shift the costs of such facilities \nfrom the interconnection customers to al l users of the transmission grid. In \naddition, SCE has neither shown that all us ers of the CAISO-Controlled grid will \nreceive the benefits of these facilities nor how Segment 3 will provide benefits to the grid. We also do not have a determination from CAISO on whether these \nfacilities should be transferre d to its Operational Control.\" \n \nPara. 42 (emphasis added). The \"informati on provided by SCE\" included (as summarized by \nFERC): \n \n[para. 22] \"SCE characterizes Segment 3 as a generation-tie line, the cost of \nwhich is ordinarily paid by interconnecting generators. However, it contends that \nsuch a policy is a barrier to entry for wi nd resources located in remote areas for \nseveral reasons: (1) the large capital outlays are not feasible and add \nunacceptable financial risk; (2) incremental transmission upgrades based on first-in-queue is ineffective for loca tions where renewable resources tend to \nlocate; and (3) clustering of interconnection applications to have jointly-owned or \njointly-funded transmission upgrades is unlikely.\" \n \n[para. 24] \"SCE says that the lines an d substations are high voltage (initially \noperated at 220 kV, with an actual rating of 500 kV), will reach approximately 35 \nmiles from the last point on the existing 220 kV grid to the second new substation, \nand will extend the grid to a large concen tration of potential renewable resources \nfrom the Tehachapi region that the CPUC has found necessary to meet the state's \nrenewable procurement objectives.\" \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 4 \n[para. 40] ... \"[T]o take advantage of economies of scale, SCE has designed the \nSegment 3 facilities to serve the multip le interconnection customers that may \ndevelop generation projects in the Te hachapi area. And, although Segment 3 \nfacilities are high voltage facilities, they do not operate in parallel with existing \ntransmission facilities.\" \n \nFERC then added, at n.33: \n \n\"We note that SCE has stated that if th e Commission does not allow recovery of \nthe cost of the Antelope Project in general transmission rates, the CPUC is to \nallow SCE to recover the reasonable transmission costs in retail rates. \nCal.Pub.Util.Code sec. 399.25(b)(2).\"23 \n \n \n2) Comments on the Decision \n \na) Segments 1 and 2 \n \nFERC promised not to penalize SCE by disall owing costs in case of abandonment or \ncancellation. FERC here used its legal flexibility to help wind without committing legal error. \nFERC could have said \"let's wait until cancellation or abandonment occurs and then see what the \nfacts were.\" FERC had no obliga tion to grant SCE's request. FE RC precedent in fact requires \nthe utility to absorb half th e cost of abandonment or cancellation. But FERC interpreted this \nprecedent flexibly. The reason why FERC has hist orically held a utility 50% accountable for \nabandonment or cancellation is that these decisions are within th e utility's control, and FERC \nwants utilities to exercise contro l carefully, sharing risks with its customers. Here, SCE correctly \nargued, and the FERC correctly agre ed, that the reasons for can cellation or abandonment would \nbe outside the utility's control. The reasons would include generators not appearing in sufficient number, or appearing an d then disappearing. \n \n \n23 This footnote is odd (separate from mis-citing the relevant provision, which is §399.25(b)(4 )). \nIt has no legal relevance. Whether the Federal Power Act allows recovery from transmission ratepayers is \nlegally unaffected by state law. Under the FPA, tr ansmission ratepayers pay for an upgrade if they \nreceive benefits from it upgrade. FERC found there are no transmission ratepayer benefits from the \nupgrade; therefore they cannot be forced to pay for it. State law has nothing to do with it. Since the events leading to a decision to abandon or cancel would be outside the \nutility' s control, FERC granted SCE's reques t to be insulated f rom the tra ditional 50% \ncost dis allowance. \n \nContrast FE RC's reasoning with inte rest group argum ents m ade by som e \nintervenors. Had FERC said \"we' re granti ng SCE' s request because we want to help \nrenewable s,\" FERC would have co mmitted leg al error. Ou tside of PURPA, FERC has no \nlegal authority to single out a form of electric generation for special treatm ent.24 Instead \nFERC stuck with its n on-renewables preceden t but used a leg itimate open ing. \n \nThe size of the facility gave FERC pause. See para. 57. FERC cannot award a \nblank check. The FPA does not allow FERC to make transm ission ratepayers pay f or a \nfacility of any size, just b ecause the state of California or ders that size. FERC has an \nindependent obligation to assure that transm ission ratepayers are not paying for m ore \nfacility than they need. It is one thin g to say that an upgrad e stim ulated by an \ninterconnecting generato r will in crease reliab ility and theref ore benefit all transm ission \nusers; it' s another thing to m ake transm ission custom ers pay for m ore capacity than is \nneeded by th e full load. FERC therefore wit hheld full approval until the P UC issues a \ncertificate of public convenien ce and necessity. P ara. 57. This statem ent does not m ean \nthat FERC will nec essarily approve all co sts just because the PUC has granted th e \ncertificate; it means that FE RC wants to see a full record supporting the size before \nacting. CalWEA shoul d theref ore consider participating in the CPCN pr oceeding to \nensure that this record is provided. \n \nb) Segment 3 \n \nOn Segm ent 3, SCE left FERC unable to show flexibility. \n \nTo the extent FERC looked only at S CE's subm ission and forgot about CalW EA's, \nFERC' s decision was correct, and easily predictable. There is no budging on the \nprinciple that transm ission rates can reflect only those investm ents that benefit the \ntransm ission ratep ayer. Once SCE characte rized Segm ent 3 as perform ing only a gen-tie \nfunction, as a non-network facility not integr ated with the grid, there was no way for \nFERC to avoid denying the requ est for roll-in. For the m any opponents o f SCE' s filing, \nSCE' s subm ission m ade defeating us on Segm ent 3 a sim ple matter of quoting SCE. It \nthen took F ERC exactly one paragraph to explain itself. \n \n \n24 It is true that FERC is try ing to m ake transm ission costs more reasonable for \ninterm ittent power: but FE RC's legal technique f or doing so -- t he right technique -- is not \"we \nlike renewables\" but \"we are not goi ng to allow transmission owners to im pose penalties on \nintermittency which are excessive in relat ion to the effects of inter mittency . In other words, \nFERC continues to focus on assigning c osts fa irly. The benefit to wind from FERC's \ninterm ittency decisions is that FERC stepped in rather than leave the matter to transm ission \nproviders who were less committed to resolving the problem . \n \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 5 FERC cannot lawf ully a ssign to tran smission custom ers any costs which do not \nproduce benefits for those costs. This princi ple is not arguable or negotiable. FERC' s \npowers are lim ited by statute. T ransm ission ra tes m ust be just and reasonable. Courts \nhave found that rates are not just and reasonable if they include costs which are not \nassociated w ith benefits to the ratepayer. \n \nWhen we talk of benef its to the ratep ayer, we ar e talk ing abou t the ratep ayer \nbuying the service at issue -- here, transm ission service. It m akes no difference to the \ntransm ission ratepayer -- in hi s role as transm ission ratep ayer -- tha t the state is attrac ting \nmore generation or increasing the diversity of that genera tion. These concerns are not \nFederal Pow er Act concerns. \n \nThere is no lawful way to create a Athird category, @ as SCE sought to do. Under \nthe Federal Power Act, there are only two catego ries of facility: the f acility eithe r benefits \nthe network or it does not. The unm ovable principle is that you cannot make \ntransm ission ratepayers pay for som ething unle ss it gives them benef its. Yes, there can \nbe m ultiple ways to sho w network benef its. But there m ust be network b enefits: \notherwise, no roll-in. To say Athere are no network benefits bu t there are plenty of oth er \nreasons to charge transm ission ratepayers @ is asking FERC to do the legally im possible. \n \nThe only way for a roll-in argum ent to have survived SCE' s subm ission was for \nFERC to disregard it, in favor of an alte rnative subm ission. T hat was the purpose of \nCalW EA's subm ission o f Whit Russell' s affidavit, explaining the network benefits of \nSegm ent 3. \n \n \n3) Comments on the Concurren ce of Commiss ioner Brownell \n \n Comm. Brownell' s concurrence asserts that the proposal would have greater \nchance of success if the proposal com es from the CA ISO, using Order 2003' s \n\"independent entity\" variation. If the CA ISO takes this route, the CA ISO should \nexplain that Segm ent 3 will prov ide network be nefits of the type typic ally requir ed by \nFERC as a prerequ isite for roll-in. Otherwise, we are likely to see a repeat of FERC’s \ninitial rejection. \n \n The m ajority rejected S CE's subm ittal not because SCE is a non-independent \ntransm ission provider, b ut becaus e the subm ittal disclaim ed any network benefits. T he \nmajority' s brief explanation of its rejec tion said nothing about independent vs. non-\nindependent status. \n \n Comm. Brownell' s concurrence does not a ddress the network benefits problem . \nThe concurrence states that these facilitie s were not envisioned by Order 2003, in that \nthey are siz ed in advance to accommodate m ultiple gene rators. It des cribes this type of a \nfacility as a \"m ultiple-us e on-ram p to th e CAISO Grid, rath er than as so le-use \ninterconnection facilities.\" This description does not rescue the facility from the m ajority \nopinion, which rejects ro ll-in becau se the benefi ts of the line are not network benefits. \n \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 6 That m ore than one generator uses the lin e, and that the advance construction and \nfinancing of the line is \"beyond the means of any one developer,\" does not respond to the \nmajority' s view (which itself is supported by decades of FERC a nd court opinions) that \nroll-in requires benefits to the transm ission network, not to the interconnecting \ngenerators. \n \n Recognizing the necessity of network benefits, the concurrence m akes this \nattem pt to sa ve Segm ent 3: \n \n\"Segm ent 3 facilities would provide be nefits to a ll use rs of the CAISO \nGrid by cre ating th e pote ntial to in terconnect significant new and diverse \nsupplies of energy. Therefore, I beli eve that this proposal would have \nsatisfied the independent entity vari ation standard in Order No. 2003, had \nit been m ade by the CAISO....\" \n \nThis passage has two problem s. First, it does not distinguish this facility from any non-\nintegrated gen-tie. Any gen-tie interconnect s new generation; but an interconnection role \nalone does not create network benefits. For ne twork benef its to exis t, the transm ission \nratepayer m ust benefit in his role as a tran smission custom er, not in his role as a pow er \ncustom er. \n \n Second, the next sentence does not follo w from the first. The second sentence \nimplies that the in tercon nection of new ge neration som ehow inter acts with independent \nentity status to support roll-i n. But as discussed above, the ability to roll-in depends on \nnetwork benefits; roll-in has nothing to do w ith independent status. FERC created the \nindependen t entity variation option b ecause independent en tities h ave no incentive to \ndiscrim inate. See Order 2003 at para. 822 (\" RTO or ISO should be treated differently \nbecause an independent RTO or ISO does not raise the sam e level of con cern regard ing \nundue discrim ination.\"). The di scrimination of concern to FE RC was discrim ination by a \ngeneration-owning transm ission provider agains t independent generators. Here, SCE is \nseeking to have its own ratepayers bear cost s that generators m ight otherwise provide. \nSCE' s proposal does not involve discrim ination against generators. The independent \nentity standard has nothing to do with this matter (as evid enced by the ab sence of any \nmention of t he issue in the m ajority' s decision). \n \n Conclusion: Since the independent-nonindependent di stinction had no effect on \nthe m ajority' s decision (n or should it have, because roll-in d epends on network benefits, \nnot on who contro ls the line ), it is ne cessary for the CA ISO, if it does m ake the r efiling, \nto adjus t the Segm ent 3 plan so th at ne twork benefits are clear. Moreover, the \n\"independent entity vari ation\" is not available to shift non-network costs from generators \nto transm ission custom ers. The requirem ent that transm ission custom ers bear cos ts only \nto the extent those costs bene fit the n etwork is ro oted in the F PA's \"just and reasonable\" \nrequirem ent. The flexibility g ranted by Order 2003 to independent entities cannot v iolate \nthat standard. \n \n \n \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 7 IV. Possible Next Steps on Segment 3 \n \nThere are th ree poss ible ways to pay fo r Segm ent 3: transm ission ratepayers, \nretail ratepayers, and in terconnecting generators. \n \na) Transmission ratepayers \n \nAllocating S egment 3 costs to transm ission ratepayers requires a FERC de cision. \nFERC can m ake this decision only if it finds benefits to transm ission ratepayers. FE RC \nwill m ake that f inding on ly if it views Segm ent 3 as integra ted with the tra nsmission \nnetwork. Having read only SCE' s position on this point, FE RC adopted SCE' s view that \nSegm ent 3 is non-network. \n \nCalWEA' s submission possibly can solve th is problem . Our filing included an \naffidavit from engineer Whit Ru ssell. The affidavit sought to create a factual basis f or a \nfinding that Segm ent 3 would be integrated with the network. FERC appears to have \nmisplaced CalW EA's filing. Although it listed CalW EA along with the o ther interveno rs, \nit did no t summarize our position s although it su mmarized th e positions o f others. FERC \nopinions always summarize the un ique position s of each intervenor. W e should seek \nrehearing for purposes of havi ng the Comm ission take our affi davit into account. If we \ndo seek rehearing, by statute we m ust do so no later than August 1, 2005. \n \nIt would be better, however , to have SCE (and its witn ess Jo rge Chacon) (or the \nCA ISO) adopt som e version of W hit's views. FERC will have difficulty accepting o ur \nposition because it has already gone on r ecord accepting SCE 's position. Our opponents \nwill a rgue in Court tha t FERC changed its m ind ar bitrarily. If it's SCE that m odifies its \nposition, we have a better shot. SCE’s m odification would take the form of a revised \napplication. It could subm it this revised a pplication in two possibl e ways: (a) in the \npresent proceeding, as a petition for rehearing (due 30 days after FERC’s order); or (b) by \ninitiating a n ew proceeding. If SCE chose (a), and if the m odifications were substantial, \nFERC likely would issue a new public no tice allowing new in terventions and \nopportunities for comme nts. \n \nMy recommendation is to try to persua de SCE and Mr. Chacon that they are \nlooking too narrowly at the FERC criteria for network treatment. It is not a black-white \nsituation, i.e., gen-tie v. netw ork. Although there is not clea r preceden t, I think we can \nfairly argue that a facility can have a gen-tie role but also play an integration role. But \nwe need SCE (or the C A ISO) to agree to h elp, rather than offer arguments which F ERC \ncannot legally accep t, ever. \n \nWhat we should not do is repeat argum ents that are legally irrelevant. The \nfollowing argum ents, as paraphrased below by FERC, invite F ERC to reject Segm ent 3 \nagain, us ing language that will b e unhelpful in the future. Thes e argum ents also expose, \nand em phasize, the ab sence of evidence from SCE that Segment 3 has network benefits. \n \n \n CalWEA Appendix 2 – p. 8 [para. 23] \"... SCE suggests creating a new \"narrow and specific category \nof transm ission facilities,\" i.e., trunk facilities that would include projects \nlike Segm ent 3. SCE argues that the costs of high-voltage (220 kV or \nhigher) trunk facilities to interconnect and integrat e large concentrations \nof potential renewable generation resources loca ted in a lim ited \ngeographic area, but a r easonable distance from the existing grid, should \nbe eligible f or rolled-in rate treatm ent. SCE suggests that this new policy \nshould apply where it is consistent w ith a state' s requirem ent to procure \nenergy from renewable resources an d where the state has determ ined, \nthrough its state regulatory authority or RTO/ISO, that the upgrades are \nnecessary to meet its policy objectives.\" \n \n[para. 25] \"[T]he Segm ent 3 trunk facility will not be unduly \ndiscrim inatory becaus e the new category of facilities is n arrowly crafted to \nfurther federal and state policies th at encourage the develop ment of \nrenewable energy and to rem ove a roa dblock to the construction of needed \ntransm ission. SCE notes that othe r states hav e enacted renew able \nportfolio standards m andating goals fo r the purchase of renewable energ y \nand providing tax incentives and siting assis tance. SCE also claim s that \nthe Comm ission has recently approved exception s to its existing polic ies \nfor interm ittent ren ewable resou rces to \"increase diversity in the resource \nbase, [and] thereby im prov[e] system re liability as a whol e.\" Moreover, it \npoints to the Comm ission' s recently in itiated p roceeding in As sessing the \nState of W ind Energy in Wholesale Electricity M arkets, Dock et No. \nAD04-13-000, to assess options to refor m transmission access for \ninterm ittent renewable resources lik e wind. Addition ally, S CE asserts that \nthe Comm ission has previously held th at sim ilar exceptions are not unduly \ndiscrim inatory.\" \n \n[para. 26] \"SCE understands that th e Comm ission' s polic y is designed to \nencourage efficient sitin g of generation resources, but renewable energy \ndevelopers must locate at the site of the resource and do not have the sam e \nflexibility as other generators about location.\" \n \nWe need to discourage our allies from making these argum ents. They have no \nfooting in the Federal Power Act. We also need to discourage the PUC from attacking \nFERC for \"insensitivity to the s tates' needs,\" or \"insensitiv ity to re newable energy\" or any \nsimilar argum ent that som etimes emanates from state comm issions. FERC has no legal \nauthority -- none -- to m ake transm ission ra tepayers pay for non-network costs in the \nname of \"deference to s tates\" o r \"sup port fo r renewables.\" It is possible that those \nmaking these argum ents are viewing FERC as a political body that re sponds to interest \ngroups. I cannot m ake the following stat ement more clear: Although FE RC is not \npolitica lly deaf, it is f undamentally a prof ession al oper ation that a ims to cente r its \ndecis ions on legal p rinciples firs t.

However, the matter of carcass selection in the calculation of mortality is not debatable – it is a matter of math and of fact, of performing the calculation exactly as described, and the calculation is either correct or \nincorrect. \n Our review of golden eagle, red-tailed hawk and grea t horned owl mortality calcul ations relied on two files \nreceived from CEC staff on 07 July 2005: ‘C EC data_fatalities. sav’ dated 03/23/05 and ‘CEC data_search \ndates.xls’ also dated 03/23/05. The pert inent sections of the fatalities file are included in Attachment 2 and \nthose from the search dates in Attachment 3. The first part of the staff response claims ‘Weisskopf sw itched the number of golden eagle carcasses given an \nEstimated Time since Death of greater than 90 days (15 in Smallwood and Thelander, 6 by Weisskopf’s \nanalysis) with the number categorized as not having ETDs (6 in Smallwood and Thelander, 15 in Weisskopf \nanalysis).\n3 \n \nFirst, the Smallwood and Thelander ( 2004) report gives neither the number of Set 2 carcasses with an ETD \ngreater than 90 days nor the number with no ETDs. Thes e must be determined from the data files. Second, \nin Attachment 2 (an accurate presentation of the data given to us by CEC staff) the carcasses given an ETD \ngreater than 90 days are shown. It is no great trick to count to 6, since one does not even have to take off \none’s shoes to do it. Third, neither of these groups of carcasses was to have been used in calculation of the \ngolden eagle mortality factor, since only those with an assigned ETD less than 90 days were to have been \nused; so the actual carcass number in either category is irrelevant to the calculation. Finally, if CEC staff \nlooked at the data to determine how many carcasses were in each category, either the transposition error is \ntheirs or the data file they gave to us is in error. The sole point of agreement between staff and us is that only \n10 golden eagle carcasses were supposed to have been us ed to calculate the Set 2 turbine’s mortality factor. \n In reference to the actual mortality factor we calculated, CEC staff response to that is ‘It was only a \ncoincidence that Weisskopf’s calculat ion using the wrong group of golden eagle carcasses nearly equaled the \nunadjusted estimate of Smallwood and Thelander ( 2004); however we cannot de termine from her comment \nhow she did this.’\n4 The staff then goes on to give a one-sentence description of the calculation of the \nunadjusted mortality factor and a one-page descriptio n and justification for the correction factors applied to \n \n1 August 31, 2005 memorandum to CEC commissioners G eesman and Boyd with the subject ‘Response to public \ncomments on the staff report titled Assessment of Avian Mortality from Collisions and Electrocutions (CEC-700-2005-015) \n(Avian White Paper) written in support of the 2005 Envir onmental Performance Report and the 2005 Integrated Energy \nPolicy Report’, unpaginated secti on, 157 – 159 of the memorandum. \n2 Smallwood K.S. and C.G. Thelander, ‘Developing Methods to Reduce Bird Mortality in the Altamont Pass Wind \nResource Area’, PIER Final Pr oject Report 500-04-052, August 2004 \n3 CEC staff memorandum, op cit. p. 157. \n4 Ibid, p. 157. CalWEA Attachment to Appendix 1 – page 2 the unadjusted mortality factor. Although we have great concern about the appropriateness of the correction \nfactors, the error we posit is in the calculat ion of the unadjusted mortality factor itself. \n \nFrom the data in the files given to us by CEC staff, mo rtality factors were calculated for the golden eagle, red-\ntailed hawk, great horned owl, burrowing owl and ferruginous hawk carcasses in the Set 2 turbines (Attachment 1) according to the calculation procedure desc ribed in the 2004 PIER report.\n5 \n \nIn Attachment 1, data in columns A, B, C and H are taken from the CEC fatality file, and columns D, I and J taken from the CEC search dates file for the turbine st ring associated with the carcass. Column E is our \ncount of the number of individual towers in the stri ng, column F is our assignment of the per-turbine MW, \nand column G is the number of towers (E) times the per-turbine MW value (F). Column K is the interval \nbetween the two searches in that string (I and J), and column L is the study duration (the search interval (K) + 90 days). Column M is the deaths/MW/year for the indi vidual eagle carcass in that string, calculated by \ndividing 1 carcass by the string MW sum (G) and by the study duration (L). Column N is the sum of the \nindividual string factors (M), and in column O the string factor sum (N) is divided by the number of turbine \nstrings in Set 2 (280 strings) to give the unadjusted mo rtality factor (in deaths pe r MW per year) for the Set 2 \nturbines. Column P gives the unadju sted mortality factor as shown in Table 3-9 of the 2004 PIER report.\n6 \n \nFor the golden eagles, the first pair of numbers in co lums N and O yields the un adjusted mortality factor \nproduced if only the 10 carcasses with an ETD le ss than 90 days are used. This factor is 34.8% of the factor \ngiven in the 2004 PIER report. The second pair yields the mortality factor if th e 10 carcasses with an ETD \nless than 90 days and the 15 carcasses with no ETD are used. The second pair gives a mortality factor that is \n1.4% higher than that shown in the report. The same ho lds true for red-tailed hawk carcasses – our calculated \nunadjusted mortality factor only closely matches that reported when all carcasses with no assigned ETD are \nused along with those with an ETD less than 90 days. \nThe burrowing owl and ferruginous hawk calculations shown in Attachment 1 were performed as a check on \nour calculation procedure, as none of those carcasses had an unassigned ETD. The factor we calculated for burrowing owls was 0.5% higher and for ferruginous hawks 1.7% lower than the factors reported. As an additional check, calculations were also performed (but not shown here) for one cowbird, one mallard, one \nraven and two bluebird carcasses from the Set 2 turbines , with our calculated factors matching those reported \n± 2%. The differences in our calculated factors compared to those reported are probably due to rounding or \nsome other minor factor, but serve to demonstrate the calculation was duplicated appropriately. \n \nThe only uncertainties in our calculation of the golden eagle unadjusted mortality factor was the individual \nturbine’s MW rating and the study duration used by the authors for the golden eagle carcass found \nincidentally on 13-May-03 (Attachment 1) since it was found two months after searches of that string ceased. \nTo produce a calculated golden eagl e unadjusted mortality fa ctor that matches that given in the 2004 PIER \nreport using only the 10 ca rcasses with an assigned ETD less than 90 days, all the turbines need to average \n0.035 MW and there are none in the Al tamont that small. Th e authors did not addre ss adjustment of study \ndurations for incidental finds, so the original search dates appear in Attachment 1. However, the increase in \nthat string’s study duration to include the date the carcass was found produces a better match with the \nmortality factor in the 2004 PIER repor t, with ours higher by only 0.9% when the 10 eagle carcasses with an \nETD less than 90 days and the 15 with no assigned ETD are all included. \n \nThere have been many estimates of Altamont golden eagle mortality (Howell and DiDonato 1991, Kerlinger \nand Curry 2003, Orloff and Flannery 1992 and 1996, Smallwood and Thelander in press)7. In addition, the \n \n5 Smallwood and Thelander (2004), op cit. p. 49. \n6 Ibid, p 70. \n7 Howell J.A and J.E. DiDonato, ‘Assessment of avian use an d mortality related to wind turbine operations, Altamont \nPass, Alameda and Contra Costa Counti es, California, September 1998 – August 1989’, report to US Windpower, 1991; CalWEA Attachment to Appendix 1 – page 3 2004 PIER report golden eagle mortality factors from the Set 1 turbines c an be extrapolated to the entire \nAPWRA, omitting the Set 2 turbine factor disputed here. All of these mortality estimates, including \nSmallwood and Thelander (in press) lie between 28 and 43 golden eagle deaths per year, substantially different \nthan the 2004 PIER report’s 76 – 116 eagle deaths per year.8 \n In the PIER report, the authors address differences in mortality estimates between that report and their \nNREL report (in press). They state ‘Our new mortalit y estimates are much larger than those reported in \nSmallwood and Thelander (in review), but our report to the National Renewable Energy Lab did not include data collected over most of the APWRA where we had not yet been granted access, and it did not include \ndata from the wind turbines because we had not yet completed a full year of fatality searches on these \nturbines and decided to exclude them from our estima tes of mortality. In fact, we had noticed that the \nmortality estimates representing the SeaWest-owned turb ines were much larger than observed elsewhere, but \nwe guessed that these larger estimates might be due to time spans consisting of less than a year because the \ndenominator in the mortality estimate would be a fraction and would therefore artificially inflate the mortality \nestimate, as described in Chapter 3. However, continue d searches at these wind turbines proved that the \ngreater mortality previously observed (and excluded from our report) was no t the result of insufficient time \nspanning the searches. Mortality at the SeaWest-owned portion of the APWRA substantially exceeds mortality observed over most of the rest of the APWRA’.\n9 \n \nIn the NREL report, annual golden eagle mortality Altamont-wide is 28 and 34 deaths/year for the search \nefficiency-corrected total and the searcher efficiency plus scavenging-corrected total, respectively. The \nSeaWest-owned turbines discussed, above, are in the Set 1 turbines. When the PIER report Set 1 turbines \nalone are used to calculate annual golden eagle mortality Altamont-wide, the total is also 28 and 34 \ndeaths/year for the searcher efficien cy-corrected total and the searcher efficiency and scavenging-corrected \ntotal, respectively. The SeaWest-owned turbines do not account for the substantial difference in golden eagle \nmortality estimates between the Smallwood and Thelander NREL report and the Smallwood and Thelander \nPIER report. \n There is no evidence that CEC staff attempted to perform the same calculation exercise we demonstrate here \n– an effort to determine the source of the unexpected magnitude in the annual golden eagle mortality – \ndespite the improbability of the numbers and our effo rt to point out the sour ce of the discrepancy. \n That our calculated golden eagle and red-tailed hawk mortality factors match by ‘coincidence’ only when we include carcasses without ETDs in the data files given to us by CEC staff beggars the imagination. If this is the \nlevel of critical thought CEC staff has given to an issue as crucial as this mistake in calculation, we have little \nreason to expect competent assessment of any other public criticism in the remainder of the staff response. \n \nKerlinger P. and R.

Atmospheric particle inorganic ion concentrations,local sea ice conditions, and meteorology at Barrow, AK, from 2006 to 2009, were combined to investigate\nthe dependence of submicron (aerodynamic diameter <1μm) and supermicron (aerodynamic diameter\n1–10μm) sea salt mass concentrations on sea ice coverage and wind speed. Consistent with a wind-dependent\nsource, supermicron sea salt mass concentrations increased in the presence of nearby leads and wind speeds\ngreater than 4 m s\n/C01. Increased supermicron and submicron sea salt chloride depletion was observed for\nperiods of low winds or a lack of nearby open water, consistent with transported sea salt in fluence. Sea salt\naerosol produced from leads has the potential to alter cloud formation, as well as the chemical composition\nof the Arctic atmosphere and snowpack.\n1. Introduction\nRapid sea ice loss is dramatically changing the Arctic surface [ Serreze and Stroeve , 2015]. Mean\nSeptember coverage of Arctic sea ice decreased by /C013.3% decade/C01for the period of 1979 –2014\n[Serreze and Stroeve , 2015], and complete summertime loss of sea ice is expected within 50 years\n[Overland and Wang , 2013]. In the winter-spring, the Arctic is becoming increasingly dominated by\nfirst-year sea ice cover [ Maslanik et al ., 2011]. Thinner first-year sea ice is less structurally stable and more\nprone to fracturing, likely resulting in the formation of leads (transient areas of open water surroundedby sea ice), as well as more pancake ice [ Stroeve et al ., 2012]. Increasing sea salt aerosol production is\nexpected from the newly exposed ocean surface [ Browse et al ., 2014; Struthers et al ., 2011]. Sea ice loss\nis also expected to increase the emissions of marine primary organic aerosol and dimethyl sul fide, as well as\nlead to changes in aerosol processing and removal in the Arctic boundary layer through changing\nmeteorology [ Browse et al ., 2014].\nAtmospheric aerosols represent the largest source of uncertainty in global radiative forcing predictions\n[Boucher et al ., 2013]. An increase in sea salt aerosol emissions will increase Arctic aerosol optical depth,\nincreasing the magnitude of aerosol direct radiative forcing (cooling) [ Struthers et al ., 2011]. Sea salt aerosols\ncan also indirectly alter radiative forcing by acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) [ Wise et al ., 2009].\nSimulations by Browse et al . [2014] suggested that the CCN response to increased sea salt aerosol from the\nArctic Ocean is weak due to ef ficient scavenging of particles and decreased new particle formation from a\ngreater condensation sink. However, the predicted CCN response was spatially nonuniform, with coastal\nArctic regions predicted to have a larger CCN response than the central Arctic Ocean [ Browse et al ., 2014].\nFurther, deposition of sea salt aerosol to the snow surface contributes to springtime atmospheric reactive\nbromine chemistry and ozone depletion [ Pratt et al ., 2013; Simpson et al., 2005]. However, due to limited\nArctic aerosol measurements, the contributions and radiative impacts of sea salt aerosol under changingsea ice conditions are uncertain.\nUnder open ocean conditions, sea salt aerosol mass concentrations typically increase with increasing wind\nspeed [ Lewis and Schwartz , 2004] and decreasing water temperature [ Salter et al ., 2015]. Airborne sea salt\naerosol particles are formed by two distinct processes when bubbles on the seawater surface burst[Blanchard and Woodcock , 1957]. The fragmentation of the top of the bubble membrane produces film drops.\nAfter the bubble membrane top bursts, droplets of water are flung upward from the bubble bottom,\nMAY ET AL.

Particles result from film and jet drops after evaporation, with film drops mainly resulting\nin submicron particles and jet drops generally resulting in supermicron particles [ O’Dowd et al ., 1997]. Over\nthe open ocean, the bubble-bursting production of sea salt aerosol is driven by wind-induced wave breakingthat entrains air underneath the ocean surface. However, there is still uncertainty regarding the mechanism\nof aerosol production from leads. Nilsson et al . [2001] and Leck et al . [2002] measured wind-dependent\nnumber fluxes of particles, likely produced through the bubble-bursting mechanism, from open leads at a\nrate ~10 times less than the open ocean, which was attributed to the decreased fetch over the open leads.\nHowever, Nilsson et al . [2001] found that an additional particle emission mechanism was needed to explain\nthe particle number fluxes at low wind speeds. Studies conducted under lower wind speed conditions have\nproposed emission mechanisms, including the transport of bubbles to the surface by increased turbulence\ncaused by supercooling conditions [ Grammatika and Zimmerman , 2001], gas released from melting ice\n[Leck and Bigg , 1999; Nilsson et al ., 2001], phytoplankton respiration [ Johnson and Wangersky , 1987], and a\nsurface heat flux-driven mechanism [ Norris et al ., 2011].\nSea salt aerosol is a signi ficant contributor to Arctic particle mass [ Quinn et al ., 2002]. Given the impacts of sea\nsalt aerosol on climate and the changing sea ice surface, it is imperative to evaluate the contribution of sea\nsalt aerosol produced from leads. Previous Arctic spring [ Radke et al ., 1976; Scott and Levin , 1972] and summer\n[Held et al ., 2011a; Held et al ., 2011b; Leck and Persson , 1996; Leck and Bigg , 1999; Leck and Svensson , 2015;\nLeck et al ., 2002; Nilsson et al ., 2001] short-term intensive studies measured the direct flux of particles from\nleads over the pack ice. However, signi ficant uncertainty remains regarding the extent leads currently\ninfluence Arctic particle mass concentrations over multiple seasons and at coastal locations. Therefore, to\nbuild on previous work on the production of aerosols from leads and to probe the wind dependence of\nsea salt aerosol production from Arctic leads across multiple seasons and years, we present an examinationof sea salt concentrations near Barrow, Alaska, under varying local sea ice and wind speed conditions from\nApril 2006 to December 2009.\n2. Methods\n2.1. Meteorology\nWind speed and wind direction data were available with 1 min resolution for the National Oceanic and\nAtmospheric Administration (NOAA) Barrow Observatory (71°32 ′30″N, 156°61 ′14″W) at 10 m above ground.\nGiven that wind speeds ≥4ms/C01over open ocean are typically associated with the formation of bubbles\nresponsible for sea salt aerosol production [ Monahan and O ’Muircheartaigh , 1986], wind speed data were\ndivided into three average wind speed categories: (1) “low ”<4ms/C01, (2) “moderate ”4–7ms/C01, and (3)\n“high ”>7ms/C01. As there are no direct measurements of wind speed over the adjacent Arctic Ocean avail-\nable, it is assumed that local measured wind speed is representative of the wind speed over the nearby\nsea ice and open water. The local wind speeds observed in this study are consistent with previous obser-\nvations of Arctic wind speeds over sea ice [ Tjernström et al ., 2012], with low or moderate wind speeds pre-\nsent for 22% and 62% of supermicron, respectively, and 29% and 48%, respectively, of submicron particle\nsampling periods.\n2.2. Sea Ice Radar\nThe coverage of local near-shore sea ice at Barrow, AK was determined by examination of radar backscatter\nmaps (http://seaice.alaska.edu/gi/data/barrow_radar) produced from a Furuno 10 kW, X-band marine radar,\nwhich provides high spatial resolution sea ice imaging during both light and dark periods (Figure 1). Theradar operated atop a building in downtown Barrow (71°17 ′33″N, 156°47 ′17″W) 22.5 m above sea level, with\na range of up to 11 km to the northwest [ Druckenmiller et al ., 2009; Eicken et al ., 2011]. While the radar only\ncovered sea ice conditions to the northwest in this analysis, any lead activity observed within the 11 km rangeanalyzed in this study was assumed to re flect lead activity along the coast to the southwest and northeast, as\nobserved frequently by Mahoney et al . [2014]. Radar backscatter maps were manually analyzed to divide the\nobserved local sea surface into three categories: (1) full sea ice cover present, when local sea ice cover wascomplete and no areas of exposed ocean surface were present; (2) leads present, when local sea ice cover\nwith areas of exposed ocean surface was present: and (3) open ocean, when no major local sea ice cover\nwas observed on the radar map (Figure 1).Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 10.1002/2016JD025273\nMAY ET AL. ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9209 2.3. Aerosol Chemical Composition\nAtmospheric particles were sampled at\nthe NOAA Barrow Observatory 10 m\nabove the surface from April 2006 to\nDecember 2009. Real-time wind direc-tion was used to sample only from the\nclean air sector (0° –129°) to avoid in flu-\nence from local pollution [ Quinn et al .,\n2002]. The Beaufort and Chukchi Seas\nare 2 –25 km upwind of the aerosol sam-\npling site in the clean air sector, so all airsampled is assumed to be of direct mar-\nine origin. A Berner-type multijet cas-\ncade impactor operating at a sample\nflow rate of 30 L min\n/C01with 50% cut\npoints at aerodynamic diameters ( D50)\nof 10 μm and 1 μm was used to collect\nparticles with aerodynamic dia-\nmeters <1μm (referred to as submi-\ncron particles) and 1 –10μm (referred\nto as supermicron particles). Particles\nwith diameters <1μm passed through\nan impactor to a rotating filter carousel\nhousing eight Millipore Fluoropore fil-\nters (1.0 mm pore size). For every revolu-\ntion of the rotating submicron filter\ncarousel, seven filters were sampled\nindividually, with sampling time varying\ndepending on season and particle load-ings, and one filter, exposed to ambient\nair for 10 s, served as a blank. Particles\nwith aerodynamic diameters between1 and 10 μm were collected on Tedlar\nfilms over the course of one revolution\nof the rotating submicron filter carousel,\nwith one additional film collected as a\nblank for every supermicron sample\nFigure 1.

ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9210 collected. To minimize bounce of large particles onto downstream submicron filters, a 12 mm grease cup\ncoated with silicone grease and a film coated with silicone spray were placed on the 10 μm jet [ Quinn\net al ., 2002]. Sample air was heated to maintain a stable reference relative humidity (RH) of 40% despite\nchanges in ambient RH. The stable sampling RH allows for a constant instrumental size segregation, and\nall measurements are reported at the reference RH [ Quinn et al ., 2002]. Submicron and supermicron particle\nsampling periods ranged from 1 to 11 days and 5 to 35 days, respectively. After collection, sealed filters and\nfilms were shipped to the NOAA Paci fic Marine Environmental Laboratory for analysis.\nFor inorganic ion analysis, filters and films were first wetted with 1 mL of spectral grade methanol. Five milli-\nliters of distilled deionized water was then added to the solution, and the samples were extracted by sonicat-\ning for 30 min. Concentrations of major cations (Na+,N H 4+,K+,M g2+, and Ca2+) and anions (CH 3SO3/C0,C l/C0,\nBr/C0,N O 3/C0,S O 42/C0, and C 2O₄2/C0) extracted from each submicron and supermicron particle sample were mea-\nsured by ion chromatography [ Quinn et al ., 1998]. Details of the inlet, sampling procedures, and chemical ana-\nlyses can be found in Delene and Ogren [2002] and Quinn et al . [2002]. Based on the aerosol sampling flow rate\n(30 L min/C01) and typical sampling time, the detection limits calculated as 2 times the standard deviation of\nthe blank for the major sea salt ions of interest, Na+and Cl/C0, were both 0.0002 μgm/C03. For periods that were\nbelow the detection limit, a value of half the detection limit (0.0001 μgm/C03) was substituted for calculations.\nPeriods below the detection limit constituted 0% of supermicron and 12% submicron sampling periods for\nNa+and 3% of supermicron and 20% submicron sampling periods for Cl/C0.N a+mass concentration is a con-\nservative tracer for sea salt mass [ Legrand et al ., 2016] and will be discussed henceforth in the place of sea salt\nmass to avoid biases from varying chloride depletion. While sea spray aerosol is a complex mixture of inor-\nganic salts and organic compounds, the distribution of which alters the chemical and physical properties\nof the particle, sea spray aerosol is primarily ( >60%) composed of inorganic salt [ Quinn et al ., 2015]. All Na+\nis assumed to be derived from seawater [ Quinn et al ., 2002], as Sirois and Barrie [1999] showed that the major-\nity of Na+in the Arctic is associated with sea salt aerosol. Error was calculated as the standard error of the\nmean and is not shown for periods when only one sampling period fell into the given sea surface and wind\nspeed category.\n3. Results and Discussion\n3.1. Sea Salt Mass Concentrations\nA clear dependence of supermicron (1 –10μm) Na+(sea salt) mass concentrations on the combination of local\nsea ice coverage and wind speed was observed (Figure 2a). There was little difference in the supermicron Na+\nmass concentrations observed for periods with no leads present and low ( <4ms/C01) (0.04 ± 0.01 μgm/C03)o r\nmoderate (4 –7ms/C01) (0.03 μgm/C03) wind speeds compared to periods with leads and low wind speeds\n(0.026 ± 0.009 μgm/C03). However, for periods characterized by moderate wind speeds, supermicron Na+mass\nconcentrations were higher when leads were present (0.11 ± 0.03 μgm/C03) compared to when full sea ice\ncover was present (0.03 μgm/C03). Unfortunately, no supermicron sampling periods of full sea ice coverage\nwith high wind speeds ( >7ms/C01) were present for comparison to periods of leads present with high\nwind speeds.\nWhen leads were present, supermicron Na+mass concentrations were 4 and 10 times greater for periods with\nmoderate (0.11 ± 0.03 μgm/C03) and high (0.3 ± 0.1 μgm/C03) wind speeds, respectively, in comparison to low\nwind speeds (0.03 ± 0.01 μgm/C03) (Figure 2a). This is consistent with wind-driven sea salt aerosol number\nfluxes from leads observed directly by Nilsson et al . [2001] and Leck et al . [2002]. Local leads, when observed\nby the sea ice radar, are the most likely source for the wind-dependent supermicron Na+mass observed in\nthis study, as the lifetime of supermicron aerosols in the boundary layer is typically <12 h [ Williams et al .,\n2002]. The short lifetime of these supermicron particles limits the distance from which the majority of theseparticles could have originated, for the wind speeds observed, to a scale of a few hundred kilometers, which\nwould fall within the area of Arctic sea ice coverage in the winter-spring and for which the sea ice radar is\nrepresentative of ice fracturing conditions [ Mahoney et al ., 2014].\nThe highest supermicron Na\n+mass concentrations are expected for open ocean and high wind speeds, as sea\nsalt aerosol production generally increases with increasing wind speed and fetch [ Lewis and Schwartz , 2004].\nWhile no supermicron particle sampling periods occurred for open ocean and low wind speeds, periods ofJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 10.1002/2016JD025273\nMAY ET AL. ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9211 open ocean with moderate wind speeds showed supermicron Na+mass concentrations (0.5 ± 0.1 μgm/C03)\n5 times greater than for periods when leads were present with moderate winds. Previously, sea salt\naerosol number fluxes over leads were measured to be 10 times smaller than those over the open ocean\nat similar wind speeds, an observation which was attributed to the smaller fetch and area of exposed\nwater [ Leck et al ., 2002; Nilsson et al ., 2001]. Therefore, these long-term measurements show that while\na smaller source than open water, leads are a signi ficant wind-dependent source of supermicron sea salt\nparticle mass in the Arctic. The supermicron Na+mass concentration for high wind speeds (0.3 μgm/C03)\nwas slightly lower than for periods of open ocean with moderate winds (0.5 ± 0.1 μgm/C03), contrary to\nthat expected based on the dependence of sea salt aerosol mass over open ocean on wind speed\n[Lewis and Schwartz , 2004]. However, only one open ocean aerosol sampling period was characterized\nby sustained high winds, imparting uncertainty in the trend that can be attributed to the small sample\nsize and natural variability in meteorological condi tions that would impact sea salt aerosol concentra-\ntions through deposition and marine boundary layer mixing [ Lewis and Schwartz ,2 0 0 4 ] .H o w e v e r ,i ti s\nimportant to note that despite these confounding factors there are statistically signi ficant trends\noverall in the dependence of supermicron sea salt concentrations on local sea ice extent and local\nwind speed.\nFigure 2. Average mass concentrations of Na+for the (a) supermicron (1 –10μm), (b) submicron particle ( <1μm) and\n(c) total size ranges, and (d) the fraction of the total Na+mass that was observed in the supermicron size range, separated\ninto nine bins based on local sea ice extent and wind speed. Sea ice extent categories include full ice, leads present, and open\nwater. Wind speed categories include low ( <4ms/C01), mid (4 –7ms/C01), and high ( >7ms/C01). All error bars were calculated as\nthe standard error of the mean, and the numbers above each category indicate the number of samples in that category.Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 10.1002/2016JD025273\nMAY ET AL. ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9212 There was no overall dependence of submicron ( <1μm) Na+mass concentrations on local sea ice coverage\nand wind speed (Figure 2b). Unlike supermicron Na+mass concentrations, submicron Na+mass concentra-\ntions did not increase substantially when leads were present. The average submicron Na+mass concentration\nwhen leads were present was 0.25 ± 0.03 μgm/C03, compared to 0.21 ± 0.06 μgm/C03when leads were not pre-\nsent. In further contrast to supermicron Na+mass concentrations, a wind speed dependence in submicron\nNa+mass concentration was not observed when leads were present (Figure 2b). In fact, open ocean periods\nwith low or moderate wind speeds resulted in the lowest observed submicron Na+mass concentrations\n(0.03 ± 0.02 μgm/C03and 0.11 ± 0.03 μgm/C03, respectively). The lack of correlation of submicron Na+mass\nconcentrations with local sea ice coverage and wind speed is most likely due to the longer atmospheric\nresidence time of submicron sea salt particles, compared to supermicron sea salt particles [ Gong et al .,\n2002; Williams et al ., 2002]. The shorter residence time of supermicron sea salt aerosol decreases the in fluence\nof long-range transport, which signi ficantly in fluenced the observed submicron sea salt aerosol, as discussed\nin section 3.2. The long-range transport of submicron sea salt aerosol produced from high-latitude open\nocean sources to the Arctic could therefore have a signi ficant in fluence on submicron Na+mass concentra-\ntions, as previously concluded [ Barrie and Barrie , 1990; Barrie et al ., 1994; Quinn et al ., 2002; Sirois and Barrie ,\n1999; Sturges and Barrie , 1988].\nDuring periods of full sea ice cover and open ocean, submicron Na+mass concentrations exhibited a\ncorrelation with wind speed. For full sea ice periods, submicron Na+mass concentrations increased from\nlow (0.19 ± 0.05 μgm/C03) and moderate (0.2 ± 0.1 μgm/C03) to high wind speed (0.3 μgm/C03), although the\nincrease from moderate to high wind speed was not statistically signi ficant, in part due to the availability of\nonly one sampling period at high wind speed for comparison (Figure 2b). Under full ice conditions, a non –wave\nbreaking source of Na+, as discussed in section 3.4, could potentially contribute, in addition to long-range\ntransport, as discussed in section 3.2. For open ocean periods, submicron Na+showed a greater dependence\non local meteorology. Submicron Na+mass concentrations increased from low (0.03 ± 0.01 μgm/C03) to moder-\nate (0.11 ± 0.03 μgm/C03) and high (0.2 ± 0.1 μgm/C03) wind speeds. However, the increase from moderate to\nhigh wind speeds was not statistically signi ficant. The higher sea salt concentrations under these open ocean\nconditions, along with the decrease in the fraction of aged submicron sea salt periods discussed in section 3.2,\nsuggests the in fluence of submicron sea salt production from local wind-driven wave breaking processes.\nOverall, the supermicron fraction of the total Na+mass concentration increased with decreasing sea ice cov-\nerage and, in the presence of leads, increasing wind speed (Figures 2c and 2d). Supermicron Na+mass con-\ncentrations comprised less than 20% of the total Na+mass concentrations for periods with full sea ice cover\nand with leads and low winds. In the presence of leads, the supermicron Na+mass fraction increased with\nincreasing wind speed. At moderate wind speeds the supermicron Na+mass concentration comprised\n40% of the total Na+mass concentration for periods with leads, ~4 times greater than periods with leads\nand low wind speeds. Then, for periods with leads and high wind speeds, the supermicron Na+mass fraction\nincreased to 50% of the total Na+mass concentration. Finally, the supermicron Na+mass fraction was the\nmost dominant for periods with open ocean, comprising 60 –80% of the total Na+mass concentration. The\ndependence of supermicron Na+mass fraction on local sea ice coverage and wind speed highlights that\nthe supermicron sea salt aerosol population is more directly in fluenced by local sea ice coverage and wind\nspeed than the submicron sea salt aerosol population, as expected due to the longer atmospheric residence\ntime of submicron sea salt particles [ Gong et al ., 2002; Williams et al ., 2002].\n3.2. Contributions of Aged Sea Salt Aerosol\nCl/C0/Na+molar ratios were calculated to investigate sea salt aerosol lifetime and chemical processing, a mea-\nsure of the in fluence of long-range transport. Sea salt aerosol retains the Cl/C0/Na+molar ratio of seawater\n(1.16) when introduced into the atmosphere [ Keene et al ., 1986]. This ratio is altered in the atmosphere\nthrough the displacement of chlorine through reaction with acidic gases, such as H 2SO4, or aqueous oxida-\ntion of SO 2(g)[Keene et al ., 1998]. The extent of aging is thus dependent on atmospheric residence time, as\nwell as the original particle mass and acidic precursor concentrations in the atmosphere [ Leck et al ., 2002].\nPrevious work has shown that fine sea salt aerosol (aerodynamic diameter <2.5μm) are more likely to have\ngreater chloride depletion than those of larger diameter coarse (aerodynamic diameter >2.5μm) sea salt\naerosol [ Barrie et al ., 1994; Hara et al ., 2002; Leck et al ., 2002]. In addition, previous work has shown that seaJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 10.1002/2016JD025273\nMAY ET AL. ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9213 salt aerosols exhibit greater depletion following polar sunrise when production of sulfuric acid from the\noxidation of SO 2(g)occurs in the Arctic troposphere [ Sirois and Barrie , 1999]. Using Cl/C0/Na+molar ratios\n(Figure S1 in the supporting information), fractions of sampling periods dominated by “aged ”sea salt were\ncalculated for each sea ice and wind speed category (Figure 3). Aged sea salt was de fined as having a Cl/C0\nenrichment factor <0.75. Cl/C0enrichment factor is determined by dividing the Cl/C0/Na+ratio of the aerosol\nsample by the Cl/C0/Na+ratio of bulk seawater [ Newberg et al ., 2005]. Therefore, an enrichment factor <0.75\ncorresponds to the depletion of 25% or more of Cl/C0from sea salt aerosol and represents particles that have\nundergone signi ficant atmospheric processing. Sampling periods with a Cl/C0/Na+enrichment factor >0.75\nwere considered to consist primarily of “fresh ”sea salt produced from local sources.\nThe average fraction of aged submicron sea salt periods (0.74 ± 0.07) across all local sea ice coverage and wind\nspeed categories was higher than the fraction of aged supermicron sea salt periods (0.39 ± 0.06) (Figure 3). The\nmedian Cl/C0/Na+molar ratios for submicron and supermicron sea salt aerosol sampling periods also exhibited a\ndependence on local sea ice coverage and wind speed (Figure S2). Overall, the median Cl/C0/Na+molar ratio of\nsubmicron sea salt periods (0.62) was lower than the median Cl/C0/Na+molar ratio for supermicron sampling\nperiods (0.86) (Figure S2). This indicates that the atmospheric processing undergone by the submicron sea salt\nresulted in a greater Cl/C0depletion than the supermicron sea salt, as expected since smaller particles have a\nlonger residence time [ Williams et al ., 2002] and a higher surface area to volume ratio [ McInnes et al ., 1994].\nFigure 3.

ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9214 The highest fractions (0.7 –0.8) of aged sea salt sampling periods were observed when full sea ice cover with\nlow and moderate wind speeds were present, consistent with the lack of a local sea salt source (Figure 3). The\nfractions of aged submicron and supermicron sea salt periods when leads or open ocean were present withlow wind speed were similarly high (0.6 –0.8). That some of the highest fractions of aged sea salt were\nobserved under low wind conditions across all sea ice coverage categories indicates that the sea salt\nobserved during low wind periods, regardless of sea ice coverage, experienced increased atmosphericprocessing, likely due to long-range transport.\nFor periods with leads present, the fraction of aged submicron and supermicron sea salt periods, respectively,\ndecreased from low (0.77 ± 0.06; 0.7 ± 0.2) to moderate (0.74 ± 0.05; 0.39 ± 0.09) to high wind speeds (0.64\n± 0.06; 0.1 ± 0.1), consistent with greater contributions from a wind-dependent local sea salt aerosol source(Figure 3). However, this potential decrease in the fraction of aged submicron sea salt periods with increased\nwind speed, when leads were present, was partly within error. When open ocean was present, the fraction of\naged submicron sea salt periods decreased, partly within error, with increasing wind speed (low windspeed = 0.8 ± 0.2; moderate wind speed = 0.75 ± 0.07; high wind speed = 0.3 ± 0.1), again consistent with a\nwind-dependent local sea salt aerosol source. These trends in sea salt aging are consistent with local sea salt\naerosol production increasing with decreasing local sea ice coverage and increasing wind speed. This furthersupports wind-driven sea salt aerosol production, dominated by supermicron particles, from leads.\n3.3. Difference in Particle Production From Leads Versus Open Ocean\nIn addition to differences in particle lifetime between submicron and supermicron sea salt aerosol [ Williams\net al., 2002], differences in the production mechanisms of submicron and supermicron sea salt aerosol from\nleads likely also contributed to the observed trends in aged fractions and sea salt mass fractions. Leck et al .\n[2002] and Nilsson et al . [2001] hypothesized that compared to open ocean production, film drop particle pro-\nduction from leads depends less on wind speed than jet drop particle production. As a result, the sea saltaerosol size distribution over pack ice is dominated by a larger particle diameter lognormal mode at\n~2μm, while over open ocean, a smaller particle diameter lognormal mode centered at 100 nm dominates\n[Nilsson et al ., 2001]. This is consistent with the lognormal size distribution of sea salt aerosol resulting from\nfilm and jet drops centered at ~100 –200 nm and ~1 –2μm dry diameters, respectively, measured by O’Dowd\net al. [1997]. Thus, the larger contribution of fresh supermicron sea salt, compared to submicron sea salt,\nobserved during periods with leads and moderate to high winds (Figure 3) is consistent with the hypothesisthat jet drops are the dominant production mechanism of sea salt aerosol from leads. Additionally, the\nincreased presence of smaller particles over open ocean observed by Nilsson et al . [2001] is evident in this\nstudy by the increased presence of fresh submicron sea salt during periods of open ocean and high windspeeds (Figure 3). These results therefore suggest that the differences in wind-driven production of sea salt\naerosol from leads, compared to open ocean, shift the mass distribution of sea salt aerosol in the Arctic\ntoward larger sizes when leads are present. This could impact radiative forcing and cloud processes in theArctic as CCN ef ficiency is size dependent [ Dusek et al ., 2006].\n3.4. Non –Wave Breaking Particle Sources\nSea salt aerosol production from local leads and open ocean appears to be the dominant contributor to sea\nsalt mass concentrations in this study. However, submicron sea salt mass concentrations, sampled under con-\nditions where local sea salt aerosol production are not expected (e.g., 0.21 ± 0.06 μgm\n/C03when full sea ice\ncover was present), were equal to or greater than those from other categories where local sea salt production\nare expected (e.g., 0.12 ± 0.03 μgm/C03when open ocean was present). This suggests that there were sea salt\naerosol sources even when no exposed ocean surface was present (Figure 2b). Frost flowers, highly saline ice\ncrystals grown on rapidly freezing open leads, are a potential source for wind-driven sea salt aerosol\nproduction when no open ocean is present [ Rankin et al ., 2000]. However, as discussed in the supporting\ninformation, the contribution from wind-blown frost flowers to the measured sea salt aerosol concentrations\nwas likely minor as there were no full sea ice cover sampling periods with SO 42/C0/Na+molar ratios indicative\nof frost flowers ( <0.02) (Figure S3) [ Douglas et al ., 2012]. In comparison, SO 42/C0/Na+molar ratios for fresh\nseawater and fresh sea salt aerosol are ~0.06 [ Keene et al ., 2007]. However, sulfate isotope analysis would\nbe necessary to fully determine the in fluence of frost flowers, as anthropogenic sulfates can mask the\nsulfate depleted frost flower sea salt [ Norman et al ., 1999; Seguin et al ., 2014]. High winds can also loft\nsaline snow particles, which are suggested to form aerosols by sublimation [ Lieb-Lappen and Obbard , 2015;Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 10.1002/2016JD025273\nMAY ET AL. ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9215 Yang et al ., 2008]. The increase in submicron Na+mass concentrations from low wind speed (0.19 ± 0.05 μgm/C03),\nto moderate wind speed (0.2 ± 0.1 μgm/C03), to high wind speed (0.3 μgm/C03) for periods with full sea ice cover\nwas not also observed in the supermicron Na+mass concentrations. Therefore, additional detailed field\nmeasurements of aerosol size and chemical composition a re required to examine the potential size-dependent\nproduction of aerosols from blowing snow. However, this increase in submicron Na+mass concentration was\nwithin error. In addition, the Cl/C0/Na+ratio of blowing snow in Barrow, AK, is expected to be similar to the ocean\nwater ratio [ Jacobi et al ., 2012], such that any fresh sea salt observed during full ice periods can potentially be\nattributed to this source. Therefore, with less than 30% of the full sea ice cover submicron and supermicron\nsampling periods characterized by fresh sea salt, the contribution from blowing snow production to the observed\nNa+mass concentrations is likely minor w ith transported sea salt aerosol representing a greater contribution.\n3.5. Seasonality of Sea Salt Aerosol Production\nThe Arctic sea ice coverage undergoes seasonal changes, with growth during winter, loss during summer,\nand pack ice movement due to winds and currents [ Mahoney et al ., 2014]. In this study, particle sampling\nperiods with local full sea ice cover occurred during the months of November through June (Figure S4).\nFor these months, 11 –36% and 0 –25% of all submicron and supermicron particle sampling periods, respec-\ntively, corresponded to local full sea ice coverage. For Barrow, AK, Quinn et al . [2002] previously observed a\nwinter maximum in submicron sea salt aerosol, attributed to long-range transport from high-latitude regions\nof the Paci fic and Atlantic Oceans with seasonally high winds. This is consistent with the observations of the\nhighest fractions of aged sea salt and submicron Na+mass concentrations during sampling periods with full\nsea ice cover, suggesting that the winter sea salt aerosol population had the longest transport time from its\nsource. As expected, open ocean near Barrow was observed between July and November (Figure S4). The\nminimum fractions of aged sea salt and maximum supermicron Na+mass concentrations were observed\nduring these periods of local open ocean, suggesting the sea salt aerosol population during summer had\nthe shortest transport time from its source. The lower particle dry deposition velocity, and resulting longer\nparticle lifetime, over sea ice compared to over open ocean in the Arctic [ Nilsson and Rannik , 2001] likely also\ncontributed to the higher fraction of aged sea salt and higher submicron Na+mass concentrations during\nsampling periods with full sea ice cover compared to periods of local open ocean. Nearby leads were\nobserved to be present between October and July and were the dominant sea ice category over the entire\nstudy (Figure S3). Supermicron particle sampling periods with leads present comprised 50 –91% of the\nsupermicron particle sampling periods months of October to July. Submicron particle sampling periods withleads present comprised 64 –91%, and 5%, of submicron particle sampling periods November to July, and\nOctober, respectively. This suggests that sea salt aerosol production from leads currently impacts sea salt\naerosol mass concentrations, especially in the supermicron particle size range, in the Arctic atmospherethroughout the majority of the year.\n4. Conclusions\nThis three-year study at Barrow, AK allowed a comprehensive investigation into the in fluences of sea ice cov-\nerage and wind speed on sea salt mass concentrations in the coastal Arctic. Wind-driven production of seasalt aerosol from leads contributes signi ficantly to sea salt aerosol mass concentrations in the Arctic, but to\na lesser extent than wind-driven production of sea salt aerosol from open ocean. This is consistent with pre-\nvious short-term summertime number flux measurements of sea salt aerosol over open leads, where sea salt\naerosol emissions were ~10 times smaller than the open ocean [ Leck et al ., 2002; Nilsson et al ., 2001]. The in flu-\nence of sea salt aerosol production from open leads was most apparent in the supermicron size range, as evi-\ndenced by the strong dependence on wind speed of supermicron sea salt mass concentrations, whichincreased by a factor of 10 from periods with low wind speed to periods with high wind speeds, when leads\nwere present. The increase in supermicron Na\n+mass concentration from 0.035 ± 0.007 μgm/C03, when leads\nwere not present, to 0.12 ± 0.02 μgm/C03when leads were present, provides further evidence of the in fluence\nof sea salt aerosol production from leads. There was evidence of wind-driven submicron sea salt production\nfrom local leads, but submicron sea salt, depleted in chloride, from long-range transport comprised the\nmajority (~70%) of the submicron sea salt mass. The in fluence of long-range transport was greatest when\nlocal sea salt aerosol production would not be expected, including periods of low winds and full sea ice cover.Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 10.1002/2016JD025273\nMAY ET AL. ARCTIC SEA SALT AEROSOL 9216 This improves our knowledge of complex atmosphere-sea ice feedbacks [ Shepson et al ., 2012]. Supermicron\nsea salt aerosol production from leads could increase direct radiative forcing, as supermicron sea salt can con-\ntribute signi ficantly to scattering in the remote marine boundary layer [ Quinn et al ., 1998]. This supermicron\nsea salt aerosol could also impact indirect radiative forcing and cloud properties as giant CCN (2 –10μm),\nwhich can induce the formation of larger cloud droplets and accelerate precipitation in the presence of smal-\nler particles [ Yin et al ., 2000]. The CCN response to supermicron sea salt aerosol produced from leads may be\nreduced by the ef ficient removal of large particles in the highly scavenging nature of the Arctic atmosphere,\nparticularly in summer [ Browse et al ., 2012]. Supermicron sea salt aerosol emissions from leads would also\nincrease the atmospheric condensation sink, which is predicted to suppress particle nucleation fromdimethyl sul fide and reduce total CCN concentrations [ Browse et al ., 2014]. Increased emissions of supermi-\ncron sea salt aerosol from leads thus could play an important role in controlling the CCN response to changes\nin sea ice [ Browse et al ., 2014]. Supermicron sea salt aerosol could also alter snowpack and atmospheric\nhalogen photochemistry, and therefore atmospheric oxidation [ Simpson et al ., 2005]. The impacts of wind-\ndriven production of sea salt aerosol from leads could be particularly evident in winter and early spring when\nsea ice coverage is at its maximum and submicron sea salt mass concentrations are typically higher thansupermicron sea salt mass concentrations due to a lack of local open ocean source [ Quinn et al ., 2002].\nGiven decreasing multiyear sea ice extent and increasing ice fracturing [ Stroeve et al ., 2012], wind-driven\nproduction of supermicron sea salt aerosol from leads could therefore increase the supermicron sea saltaerosol mass fraction in the Arctic in the winter-spring, changing the annual contributions of sea salt aerosol\nto the Arctic winter and early spring [ Sirois and Barrie , 1999] may further increase the atmospheric sea salt\nmass burden [ Browse et al ., 2012]. To fully understand the in fluence of sea salt aerosol produced from leads,\nmeasurements of sea salt aerosol concentrations with higher time resolution must be combined with sea ice\ncoverage measurements that take into account a larger area. Furthermore, to understand the long-term\nimpacts of changing sea ice on the Arctic, decadal comparisons between sea ice conditions and sea saltaerosol are necessary.\nReferences\nBarrie, L.

Copies of this filing are onfile with the Commission and areavailable for public inspection. Thisfiling may be viewed on the web athttp://www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘RIMS ’’\nlink, select ‘‘Docket # ’’ from the RIMS\nMenu and follow the instructions (call(202) 208 –2222 for assistance).\nTexas Gas states that it has entered\ninto an agreement with ATP wherebyTexas Gas will, upon Commission\napproval, transfer by sale to ATP certainsupply lateral facilities consisting ofapproximately 4.436 miles of 12-inchdiameter pipeline, measurementfacilities, and various valves andequipment, located in West CameronArea Block 237 and terminating in WestCameron Area Block 250, offshoreLouisiana.\nTexas Gas indicates that the proposed\nabandonment will permit Texas Gas todivest itself of a supply lateral, which isremote from, and not integrated with, itsmainline transmission system, andwhich was constructed to support itsformer merchant function. Texas Gasavers that it no longer requires thesubject supply lateral to access gassupplies, and that these facilities are notintegral to Texas Gas ’ current role as an\nopen-access transporter. Texas Gasasserts that abandonment of the subjectfacilities will enable Texas Gas tostreamline its transmission operationsby eliminating certain operating costsassociated with maintaining facilities\nthat are not part of Texas Gas ’\ncontiguous system.\nTexas Gas states that the transfer of\nthe subject supply lateral facilities willnot adversely affect any of their currentcustomers. Texas Gas declares that thereare no firm transportation commitmentsinvolving utilization of those facilities.Texas Gas avers that after the transfer,ATP indicates that it will provide non-jurisdictional service on a non-discriminatory basis. Texas Gas assertsthat availability of service through thesefacilities will not be impaired as a resultof Texas Gas ’ transfer of these facilities\nto ATP.\nTexas Gas states that ATP will pay\nTexas Gas the sum of $100 for TexasGas’ interest (100%) in the facilities.\nTexas Gas indicates that in recognitionof the costs associated with any futureretirement of these facilities by ATP, anagreement provides for Texas Gas to payATP actual and reasonable costsassociated with retirement up to$100,000.\nAny questions regarding this\napplication should be directed to DavidN. Roberts, Manager of Certificates andTariffs, Texas Gas TransmissionCorporation, P.O. Box 20008,Owensboro, Kentucky 42304, at (270)688–6712.\nThere are two ways to become\ninvolved in the Commission ’s review of\nthis project. First, any person wishing toobtain legal status by becoming a partyto the proceedings for this projectshould, on or before April 24, 2002, filewith the Federal Energy RegulatoryCommission, 888 First Street, NE.,Washington, DC 20426, a motion tointervene in accordance with therequirements of the Commission ’s Rules\nof Practice and Procedure (18 CFR385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulationsunder the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). Aperson obtaining party status will beplaced on the service list maintained bythe Secretary of the Commission andwill receive copies of all documentsfiled by the applicant and by all otherparties. A party must submit 14 copiesof filings made with the Commissionand must mail a copy to the applicantand to every other party in theproceeding. Only parties to theproceeding can ask for court review ofCommission orders in the proceeding.\nHowever, a person does not have to\nintervene in order to have commentsconsidered. The second way toparticipate is by filing with theSecretary of the Commission, as soon aspossible, an original and two copies ofcomments in support of or in oppositionto this project. The Commission willconsider these comments indetermining the appropriate action to be\ntaken, but the filing of a comment alonewill not serve to make the filer a partyto the proceeding. The Commission ’s\nrules require that persons filingcomments in opposition to the projectprovide copies of their protests only tothe party or parties directly involved inthe protest.\nPersons who wish to comment only\non the environmental review of thisproject should submit an original andtwo copies of their comments to theSecretary of the Commission.Environmental commenters will beplaced on the Commission ’s\nenvironmental mailing list, will receivecopies of the environmental documents,and will be notified of meetingsassociated with the Commission ’s\nenvironmental review process.Environmental commenters will not berequired to serve copies of fileddocuments on all other parties.However, the non-party commenterswill not receive copies of all documentsfiled by other parties or issued by theCommission (except for the mailing ofenvironmental documents issued by theCommission) and will not have the rightto seek court review of theCommission ’s final order.\nThe Commission may issue a\npreliminary determination on non-environmental issues prior to thecompletion of its review of theenvironmental aspects of the project.This preliminary determinationtypically considers such issues as theneed for the project and its economiceffect on existing customers of theapplicant, on other pipelines in the area,and on landowners and communities.For example, the Commission considersthe extent to which the applicant mayneed to exercise eminent domain toobtain rights-of-way for the proposedproject and balances that against thenon-environmental benefits to beprovided by the project. Therefore, if aperson has comments on communityand landowner impacts from thisproposal, it is important either to filecomments or to intervene as early in theprocess as possible.\nComments, protests and interventions\nmay be filed electronically via theInternet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructionson the Commission ’s web site under the\n‘‘e-Filing ’’ link.\nIf the Commission decides to set the\napplication for a formal hearing beforean Administrative Law Judge, theCommission will issue another noticedescribing that process.

{ "pdf_file": "6X7DGVAM2PXFTZ3B6YQOHRCZ3VVBS5LO.pdf", "text": "Tomorrow Marks the Beginning of the Bush Prescription Drug Tax \nOn Monday, I hosted a town hall meeting in Waldorf to discuss the looming prescription drug\ndeadline. My Democratic colleagues and I have requested that the Bush Administration extend\nthe penalty-free enrollment deadline for the new Medicare prescription drug law from tomorrow\nto January 1, 2007, so that seniors can have more time to navigate this confusing and\ncomplicated law. \n \nFor many seniors and people with disabilities, prescription drugs are essential to their health\nand well-being. Unfortunately, Republicans have created a program that is impossible to\nunderstand. Now, the Bush Administration wants to penalize seniors for not being able to\ncomprehend their own confusing program. With the deadline upon us, it is unfair that seniors\nwho are unable to navigate through the 47 different plans offered by 19 different companies are\ngiven a lifetime penalty. \n \nAnd no wonder seniors are confused. The Government Accountability Office recently issued a\nreport finding that information provided by the federal government was beyond the\ncomprehension of most seniors, and answers given were inaccurate one-third of the time. In\nresponse to the critical question of which plan offered the lowest cost for a given list of drugs,\nMedicare hotline operators failed to provide the correct answer 60% of the time. \n \nFurthermore, the Kaiser Family Foundation found that only 55% of seniors know about the May\n15 deadline. The rest either did not know there was a deadline, or had incorrect information\nabout it. \n \nExtending the deadline for enrollment will ensure that more than 200,000 seniors and people\nwith disabilities in Maryland are not forced to pay the Bush prescription drug tax and higher\npremiums for life. \nWith the deadline looming, about 5.7 million seniors and people with disabilities eligible for the\ndrug program have not signed up. Government officials and outside advocates say the\nresponse has been lowest among those who stand to reap the greatest benefit from the\nprogram: the one-third of senior citizens who are low-income. \n \nFamilies USA, an advocacy group, estimates that fewer than one in four low-income senior\ncitizens have enrolled, despite expensive government outreach to educate people. Extending\nthe deadline would allow this benefit to reach some of the seniors overlooked during the\nPresident’s public relations frenzy. \n 1 / 2 Tomorrow Marks the Beginning of the Bush Prescription Drug Tax \n \nIn fact, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that 1 million more beneficiaries\nwould choose to enroll this year if the deadline is extended. \"We estimate that about 1 million of\nthose beneficiaries [who have not enrolled yet] would enroll in Part D in 2006 (i.e. sooner than\nthey would have otherwise) if the initial enrollment period were extended through the end of this\ncalendar year,\" its findings read. \n \nLet me be clear. Democrats wanted a different law. We wanted to simply add a prescription\ndrug benefit to the existing Medicare program. And we wanted it run exactly like the Medicare\nPart B seniors already knew: in which they pay 20 percent and Medicare pays 80 percent. \n \nI opposed this badly flawed prescription drug plan because it was confusing and illogical, and\ndid not do enough to make medicines more affordable for Medicare recipients. For example,\nthe law outrageously prohibits the Secretary of Health and Human Services from negotiating\nlower drug prices on behalf of the 40 million seniors enrolled in Medicare, even though similar\ntypes of negotiations currently in practice at the Veterans Administration (VA) saves them over\n40% on many medicines. \n \nIn turn, the Republican plan has been a confusing and frustrating experience for many—and I\nwill do everything in my power to help seniors from the 5th Congressional district avoid a\nlifetime penalty. \nBecause this prescription drug plan is the law of the land, I encourage seniors to examine all of\ntheir options in the remaining hours. For individualized assistance, I urge seniors to contact\nrepresentatives at the State Health Insurance Assistance Program (301-475-4200 x 1050 in St.\nMary’s). \n 2 / 2" }

Luján Applauds Secretary Chu’s Appointment of a Technology Transfer Coordinator\n \nFebruary 23, 2010\n \nWashington, DC – Today, Department of Energy Secretary Steven Chu appointed Dr. Karina\nEdmonds of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) as the Department of Energy's\nTechnology Transfer Coordinator. The appointment follows a letter from Rep. Ben Ray Luján\nurging action on an appointment. The national Technology Transfer Coordinator will serve as\nthe Secretary of Energy’s principal advisor on technology transfer and commercialization.\nTechnology transfer improves global competitiveness through innovation and helps create jobs\nby commercializing technology developed in our research universities and national laboratories.\n \n“I’m encouraged by Secretary Chu’s appointment of a national Technology Transfer\nCoordinator,” said Rep. Luján. “With this position filled, I hope that we can move forward in a\nmore aggressive and coordinated fashion to support the transfer of technology developed at\nnational laboratories and educational institutions to the marketplace.  Technology transfer\npromotes economic growth, provides American manufacturers with a competitive edge, and\naccelerates further innovation.”\n \nAccording to the Department of Energy (DOE), Dr. Edmonds is presently the Director of Jet\nPropulsion Laboratory (JPL) Technology Transfer in Caltech's Office of Technology Transfer.\nHer job duties include licensing technologies developed at both JPL and Caltech to industry and\nstart-ups, managing the JPL patent portfolio, assisting Caltech Start-ups, and managing\nprosecution of Caltech's current patent filings. Dr. Edmonds is also a registered patent agent\nwith the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Her position as DOE's Technology Transfer\nCoordinator was created by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, and this is the first time the DOE has\nappointed a full-time person to fill this role.\n \nOn February 1, Rep. Luján sent a letter to Secretary Steven Chu urging him to appoint a\nnational a Technology Transfer Coordinator.\n \nFebruary 1, 2009\n \n 1 / 3 Rep. Luján Applauds Secretary Chu’s Appointment of a Technology Transfer Coordinator\nDear Secretary Chu,\n \nThank you for your commitment to creating jobs through investments in technology and\ninnovation. Now more than ever, it has become critically important that we talk about growing\nour economy and preparing for the future. The transfer of technology developed in our federal\nlaboratories and our educational institutions to private industry and various levels of government\npromotes economic growth, provides American manufacturers with a competitive edge, and\naccelerates further innovation throughout the economy. Our country is aptly positioned to be a\nleader in technology transfer and commercialization, and it is imperative that we continue to\nsupport federal technology transfer initiatives.\n \nThe federal government spends approximately one third of its annual research and\ndevelopment budget to meet mission requirements in over 700 government laboratories. Much\nof the technology and expertise generated by this investment has applications beyond the\nimmediate goals of federally funded research and development. Results of federal research and\ndevelopment can be used to meet national needs in areas such as clean energy development,\ncomputer technology, and medicine. We must explore the potential for applying novel\ntechnologies to new industrial sectors, but we also need to actively facilitate the partnership and\ncollaboration between the public and private sectors that are vital to ensuring the success of this\ntransfer.\n \nAs you know, Section 1001(a) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires the Department of\nEnergy to appoint a Technology Transfer Coordinator to be the Secretary’s principal advisor on\ntechnology transfer and commercialization. The Technology Transfer Coordinator’s role is vital\nas he or she is charged with overseeing the expenditure of funds allocated for technology\ntransfer within the Department, as well as efforts to engage private sector entities. However, this\nrole currently remains unfilled. We are writing to you to ask that you appoint a national\nTechnology Transfer Coordinator as soon as possible. The expeditious appointment of a\nTechnology Transfer Coordinator is critical to ensuring that technology transfer activities at the\nDepartment are being carried out in the most efficient and effective way. Improving technology\ntransfer pathways will promote job growth and innovation, and the appointment of a Technology\nTransfer Coordinator is a key step in this process.\n \nThank you for your consideration of this important issue.\n \nSincerely,\n 2 / 3 Rep. Luján Applauds Secretary Chu’s Appointment of a Technology Transfer Coordinator\n \n 3 / 3" }

He acknowledged that\nthe relaiioniip between anemia and 'the syndrome \"had alwayS been p\nsubject'of contention \". In 1938 Waldenstrom (34),expressed concern\nothae'the study of.so-called hypochromic anemia and syuptpms afflic-\nLing epithelial tissues had not-aroused much interest.\nDarby (7) reflected in 1946 that recent interest in viCamin M\ncomplex deficienRies.ascauses of lesions of the budtal eissfies had\nled to the unjustified claim by many investigators that all such\nlesions were manifestations of vitamin deficiencies. It was claimed\n,that 'changes in the lingual papillae were specifically due to niacin\ndeficiency, and that glossitis was probably due to chronic niacin\ndeficiency.It was airther implied that fissuies at the angles of\ntlse mouth (ckleilosis) were due to rihoflavindeficency, although it\n''had been shown that these. lesions may heal.after administration of15\n r.14\nniacin, pyridoxine or iantothenic acid; or'lhat they may be resis-\n..u4.I;tant to treatment with all of the known vitamin B factors.

These supplementsmay account for the fact that their hemoglobin levels were increasedmore than those of the other three subjects for whom readings weretaken.Hemoglobin level readings were incomplete for cases numbered\n'14,18, 19, 23, and 24 since the investigator was unable to securea second hemoglobin reading.\nThe final assessment of the oral condition which was made bythe dental consultant at the 'subject's final visit to the clinic is\ne,given in table 3. Time periods during which subjects were observed, 511' _ .are shown to extend from a minimum of. two months to a makimum of 47months.It may be observed that only two subjects, case number 20and case number 22 showed marked improvement in oral conditions, andtwo additional subjects, cases 21 and 25 showed only moderate.improvement.Three of these subjects reporte4 that,they had'takenoral iron supplements independently, and the fourth subject was$ p're ctibedsteroids.It is not kntwn whether the three subjects , .AP.wool have shown improVement if they had not taken the oral iron(,\\,.4.suppiements.\n!. * Thresubjects showed only slight improveMent, and two of'them,N ,,cases 17 and 18, reported that they had taken 1.itaMtns with irone63\n 62\nsupplements.Four subjects showed no improvement at all, repr.eseloor-\ning 40 per cent of'this group of subjects for whom complete data\nwere available, and for whom ferrous gluconate was not prescribed.\nnot possible to contact.case number 19 for a final\nevalua ion of his condition.\n.flypotheses\nIt was hypothe4zed first that the hemoglobin level in the bloodis related to the recurrence of such oral lesioqsas glossitis,\naphthous ulcers and,angular cheilosis. Those subjects. in wiomthe\nhemoglobin was increased to a level of 13.4 g or higher, whether or\nnot they received therapy with ferrous' gluconate, all showed at\nleast some improvgment in oral conditions, Those patients whose\nhemoglobin levels at the last cl;ar visit were recorded at 12.9 gor lower showed no improvement in oral conditions.\nIt has been stated previously that assessment of normal valuesfor hemoglobin has been asignated at levels ranging upwtrd from 13.5\ng/100 ml.It seems reasonable to conclude that the findings of this\ninvestigation support the hypothesis that l!emoglobin lqvc1I-nt\nlower margin or,below the recognized minimum normal range may accom-N4.44/pany or promote the occurrence of oral lesions such as glossitis,aphthous ulcers and angular cheilOsis. It may be concluded furthers\nthat as hemoglobin levels are increased, these oral conditions are\n, improved.' .The second hypothesis was that therapy with iron supplements\nwill reduce or control tfe occurrence of glossitis, aphthous ulcers\nand angular cheilosis. Data availablefor 12 of the 13*subjects64\n .1463\nwho were selected to receive.ferroUs gluconate,therapy show that,nine subjecta -(75 per cent) demonstrated marked improvement in the\nofconditions following treatment. Of the other three subjects,'-; .;\"therA was doubt that one Subject followed instructiods for the\nferrous glv.anate therapy; one subject failed .to return to the clinic\nforreevaldion;and the third subjeCtdemonstTated only slightimprovement.These findings seem to,be consistent with those ofSuzman (32),Waldenstrom (34) and Darby (7).. On the basis of thesefindings, the hypothesis is accepted.\n0\n65,4A\ntrX111(44\n CHAPTER'VSUMMARY, CONCLUSiONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS\na\n4SummaryThe purpose bf the present study was to present an experimentalinvestigation of the manifestations of aphthous ulcers, glossitis,wv\nand cheilo8is in the oral cavities of 25 subjects, the use of ferrousat-\ngluconate supplements on the control of these lesiods in 13 selectedsubjects, and the hemoglobin levels at initial.and final clinic visitsofall subjects for time periods which varied Iromone month to fouryearS.The investigation was delimited to a study of subjects whowere solicited in the Gainesville, Florida area, or who were referred --, to thedental clinic of the'aCollege of Dentistry at phe University ofFlorida. -Selection of subjectswas ?invited to the judgment of 'thedental consultant who was preseht in the clinic at the time of the oinitial visit. His assessment of oral conditions. and selectionoftherapy preScribed were the final judgmentf.. Petermiw.tion of thehemoglobin level was made by the'inveStigator, a registered technolo-gist, and was limited to the use ofthe'cyanmethemoglobin.procedure.;. 'In order to accomplish the purposes of the study, th% followinghypotheseswere postulated:li' The hemoglobin level in the blood.is related to the occurrence:of such oral lesions as glossitis, aphthous ulcers, and angular cheilp-sis:6'6\n64\n 65\n2.Therapy with iron supplements will reduce or control the ti'. ,\noccurrence of glossitis, aphthous ulcers, and angular cheilosis\nTerms were defined as their meanings were interpreted for use\nin the pr sentinvestigation.A thorough study and review of related\n.literature was made, and it was revealed that few studies have at\nt._tempted the investigation 6flthe occurrence of these oral lesions with\nthe possible relatedness of hemoglobin levels, and the effects of\ntherapy with only iron supplements..\nData which support this experimental investigation\"Were provided\nby theeparticipation of 13 subjects who-were selected by the dental\nconsultant to receive ferrous gluconate suplements during the experi\nmental period, and by 12 subjects who received no ferrous,ilconate\ntreatment.Clinical, laboratory, and deriptiv datg were obtained\nat thesublet's initialiand final visits. All data were:tabulated\nand summarized for purposes of comparison and interpretation of the\nfindings.Interpretations were made with particular reference to\napparent relationships between the hemoglobin level and periodic\noccurrence and reduction of oral manifestations of aphthous- ulcers,\n.glossitis and angular theilosis.\n°*1 Conclusions\nOn the basis, of the findings, and.within the limitations\nposed in the present Avesttion, the following conclusions .;1;;.4c-41ade:\n1.Presence of the drat sions of aphthous ulcers, glossitis\nand cheilosis does not appear to be significantly related to hemoglobi\nlevels which fall well within the generally accepted normal limits.\n1V2.Although hemoglobin levels may fall within the generally.67\n4\n .....6.6\n%144 accepted normal 1. its, ferrous gluconate supplements have a profound\neffect, upon reversal of established oral lesions and the prevention\nof recurrences.\n3.Hemoglobin levels which are at the lower limits, or below\n1/4,Alk the recognized minimum normal range seem to accompany or promote the\noccurrence of oral lesions such as glossitis, aphthous ulcers and\n%angular cheilosis, and as hemoglobin leVels are increased, the oral\nconditions areimproved/\nt.4.Eemales appear to have a tendency toward occurrence of iron\ndeficiency more often than males, especially during the Childbearingt.,\nyears, and therefore show more ,frequent Manifestatiens of pral\nlesions apparently related. to the hemoglobin level in-the blood.1\n5.When ferrous gluconate supplements are prescribed for the\nManagement of oral lesions such as aphthous ulcers, glossixis and\ncheilosis, subjects show' inareaS4 in hemoglobin determinations, and\nthe majority show marked improvement in the oral conditions following\ntreatment.\n6.When ferrous gluconate supplements are not prescribed for\nthe management of, Oral'lesions such as aphthous ulcers, :glossitis and\n,cheilosis, subjects show no improvement in the oral conditions.47.Although the regular intake iron supplements is not recom,\nmended, it appears that some subjects require daily supplements until\ntheltsionsresolve, and,some subjects require,daily supplements,\nindefinitely.\n\"*-8\n r..§1.\n. .In )he future, the variances in hemoglobip:0Rvels will have to be .\nconsidered,What may be csidered a normal hemoglobin level in an average\nindividual may natbe hde ate to control oral lesions in Ian otherwise\n.healthy\\individual.

Westley\nFROM: RIG/A/Cairo, Lou Mundy\nSUBJECT: Audit of USAID/Egypt's Review and Certification of Unliquidated Obligations for\nProject and Non-Project Assistance\nThis is our report on the subject audit. In finalizing the report, we considered the Mission's comments\non the draft report, which are included in Appendix II. The report contains one recommendation\nwhich is closed upon issuance.\nWe appreciate the cooperation and assistance provided to the auditors on this assignment.\nBackground\nThis audit is part of the Office of Inspector General's (OIG) worldwide review of USAID obligations\nfor project and non-project assistance. The OIG's Division of Performance Audits (IG/A/PA) is\nleading this worldwide effort, with the assistance of auditors from all OIG offices of Regional\nInspectors General.\nThe worldwide audit is limited to obligations for project and non-project assistance which had\nunliquidated balances on September 30, 1996. It does not cover obligations funded with U.S.-owned\nlocal currency, obligations for disaster relief, or obligations maintained by USAID for the Trade and\nDevelopment Agency.\nIG/A/PA randomly selected USAID sites for detailed audit work and also determined the number of\nunliquidated obligations to be randomly selected and then reviewed at each site. A total of 19 sites\n(USAID/Washington and 18 missions) were selected for review. USAID/Egypt was among those\nmissions randomly selected for review. 2Mission records indicate that, as of September 30, 1996, USAID/Egypt had 195 unliquidated\nobligations for project and non-project assistance with balances totalling $2.2 billion. Sixty-five\nunliquidated obligations for project and non-project assistance with balances totalling $1.6 billion were\nselected for detailed audit work.\nThe level of funding for the USAID/Egypt program is based on a congressional earmark of $815\nmillion annually. Since 1991, the Foreign Operations Export Financing and Related Programs\nAppropriations Acts, have allowed funds obligated before their expiration date to remain available until\nexpended.\nAudit Objective\nThe worldwide audit was designed to answer the following question:\nDid USAID/Egypt review and certify its unliquidated obligations for project and non-project\nassistance in accordance with U.S. laws and regulations and USAID policies and procedures?\nAppendix I contains a discussion of the scope and methodology for audit work conducted at\nUSAID/Egypt.\nAudit Findings\nDid USAID/Egypt review and certify its unliquidated obligations for project and non-project\nassistance in accordance with U.S. laws and regulations and USAID policies and procedures?\nFor the items tested, USAID/Egypt reviewed and certified its unliquidated obligations for project and\nnon-project assistance in accordance with U.S. laws and regulations and USAID policies and\nprocedures. We found no invalid obligations1\n among the items tested. We noted that the Mission\nconducted monthly pipeline analyses and periodic Section 1311 reviews to ensure that unliquidated\nobligations and commitments were valid and still needed. However, 6 of the 219 tested commitments\nhad excessive balances totalling $2,064,406 as of September 30, 1996. While the worldwide audit was\nlimited to unliquidated obligations/commitments as of September 30, 1996, we expanded the scope of\nour audit at USAID/Egypt to cover such obligations/commitments through August 15, 1997. In this\nexpanded period, we found that 11 of the 219 unliquidated commitments reviewed, totaling $318,569,\nshould have been decommitted.\nSome Commitments Had Excessive\n \n 1GAO's Principles of Federal Appropriations Law defines an obligation as \"some action that creates a liability\nor definite commitment on the part of the government to make a disbursement at some later time.\" USAID\nFinancial Management Bulletin, Part II, No. 14A, defines a commitment as \"funds set aside [for an obligation] to\npay for goods or services being procured.\" 3Balances As of September 30, 1996\nEach year USAID's Bureau for Policy and Program Coordination issues guidance for the preparation\nof mission and office budgets. For the period under audit, the guidance required that obligations\nshould provide funding for at least the first 18 months, but not for more than 24 months and that\ncontinuing activities' obligations should be sufficient to fund anticipated expenses for no more than 12\nmonths beyond the end of the fiscal year in which the obligation takes place. These are called \"forward\nfunding\" guidelines. However, in February 1993, USAID/Egypt was granted a blanket exemption\nfrom these guidelines.\nWe reviewed 219 commitments totalling $897 million under 65 obligations. Of the 219 commitments\nwe tested, we found only 6 of the commitments, totalling $2.1 million, had excessive (no longer\nneeded) balances as prescribed by applicable U.S. laws, regulations and USAID policies and\nprocedures.\nWe noted that the Mission continuously reviewed unliquidated obligations/commitments to assure their\ncontinued validity. Pipeline analyses were conducted monthly. We reviewed the fiscal year 1996 year\nend \"Section 1311 review\"2\n and found overall it was adequately conducted and documented.\nDespite the pipeline analyses and Section 1311 reviews, six commitments totalling $2,064,406 should\nhave been decommitted as of September 30, 1996 (see Appendix III). One commitment was for $2.0\nmillion and represented 99 percent of the total recommended for decommitment. The reasons these\ncommitments were not decommitted varied. For example, the Mission did not decommit the balances\nat September 30, 1996 because financial management personnel anticipated a commitment document\nextension that never occurred or they anticipated additional payments needed to be processed. In\ngeneral more vigorous application of existing analyses and monitoring procedures, and more persistent\nfollow-up on unliquidated balances would result in more prompt decommitment actions. Nevertheless,\nbecause the Mission decommitted these commitments prior to our audit, we are not making any\nrecommendation.\nOther Matters -\nCommitments After September 30, 1996\nWhile the worldwide audit was limited to unliquidated obligations/commitments as of September 30,\n1996, we expanded the scope of our audit at USAID/Egypt to cover such obligations/commitments\nthrough August 15, 1997. In this expanded period, we found that 11 of the 219 unliquidated\ncommitments reviewed should have been decommitted.\n \n 2Section 1311 of the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 1955 4Recommendation No. 1 : We recommend that USAID/Egypt decommit $318,569 in\nexcess balances identified as of August 15, 1997 and as described in Appendix IV of this\nreport.\nWe reviewed the 219 commitments identified in our sample for the year ending September 30, 1996\nand applied the same criteria as stated above, that was: to determine if they were valid and still needed\nfor the purpose and the amount committed as of August 15, 1997.\nWe noted that the Mission continuously reviewed unliquidated obligations/commitments to assure\ncontinued validity for the purpose and the amount of the obligation/commitment. Pipeline analyses\nwere conducted and presented Mission-wide quarterly. We reviewed the 1997 mid-fiscal year Section\n1311 review and found overall it was adequately conducted and documented.\nDespite the quarterly pipeline analyses and Section 1311 review, we found for the 219 commitments\ntested, 11 had excessive balances that should have been decommitted as of August 15, 1997. See\nAppendix IV for a listing. The total amount we considered excessive was $318,569. \nAgain, the reasons these amounts were not decommitted varied from case to case; however, for the\nmajority of cases, financial management personnel were not aware final vouchers had been paid. In\ngeneral, greater persistence in following up on unliquidated commitment balances would help assure\nmore timely decommitment action. The Mission should take action to decommit balances that are no\nlonger needed.\nManagement Comments and Our Evaluation\nThe Mission agreed with the audit recommendation.\nIn response to Recommendation No. 1, the Mission decommitted $318,569. Based on the action\ntaken by the Mission, a management decision has been reached and final action has been taken. As a\nresult, we consider Recommendation No. 1 closed. Appendix I\nPage 1 of 2\nScope\nThis audit is part of the Office of Inspector General's (OIG) worldwide review of USAID's obligations\nfor project and non-project assistance. The worldwide audit is limited to obligations for project and\nnon-project assistance which had unliquidated balances on September 30, 1996. It does not cover\nobligations funded with U.S.-owned local currency, obligations for disaster relief, or obligations\nmaintained by USAID for the Trade and Development Agency.\nIn conformance with the worldwide audit, the Regional Inspector General/Cairo audited\nUSAID/Egypt's review and certification of unliquidated obligations (and the 219 commitments under\nthose obligations) for project and non-project assistance, as of September 30, 1996. In addition, we\naudited USAID/Egypt's review and certification process as of August 15, 1997. The audit was\nconducted at USAID/Egypt, from June 18, 1997 through November 16, 1997, and was performed in\naccordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.\nMethodology\nAt the request of IG/A/PA, USAID/Egypt compiled a list of its obligations for project and non-project\nassistance which had unliquidated balances on September 30, 1996. USAID/Egypt's list contained 195\nunliquidated obligations with balances totalling $2.2 billion. We randomly selected 65 obligations\ntotalling $1.6 billion, under which there were 219 commitments totalling $897 million, from the list for\ndetailed audit testing. Random sampling will allow the OIG to make Agencywide projections based on\nfield work performed at a limited number of sites. We have not, however, projected the results of our\naudit work at USAID/Egypt to the Mission as a whole.3\nBecause the accuracy and completeness of the Mission's list was crucial to our ability to make\nAgencywide projections, we interviewed appropriate Mission staff about their methodology in\npreparing the list and reconciled the list and its totals to other Mission reports. \n \n 3Note that we did not establish a materiality threshold for reporting on our work at USAID/Egypt because\nguidance for the worldwide audit required us to report all instances of non-compliance with USAID guidance.SCOPE AND\nMETHODOLOGY Appendix I\nPage 2 of 2\nWhile conducting our fieldwork at USAID/Egypt, we also performed limited tests of compliance with\nAgency and Mission procedures related to Section 1311 reviews and eipeline reviews of obligations for\nproject and non-project assistance.\nWe reviewed each obligation to determine whether it was valid in accordance with the provisions of 31\nU.S.C. 1501(a) and decisions of the U.S. General Accounting Office. When amounts were questioned,\nand if necessary, we contacted responsible activity managers and contracting/grant officers in order to\nmake a determination regarding the validity of the obligation/commitment.

RELATION OF AMENDMENT OR BILL TO EXISTING LAW\n§35. Amendments to Bills\nWhich Amend Existing Law\nIt has been held that the rule of\ngermaneness applies to the rela-\ntionship between a proposed\namendment and the pending bill\nto which offered and not to the re-\nlation between such amendment\nand an existing title of the United\nStates Code which the pending\nbill seeks to amend,(15)except\nwhere the bill is a continuation or\nre-enactment of existing law, in\nwhich case amendments seeking\nto modify the law being extended\nin a germane manner may be ger-\nmane to the bill,(16)or where the\nbill so comprehensively or di-\nversely amends an existing law as\nto permit amendments which are\ngermane to other provisions of\nthat law.(17)Thus, the germane-\nness of an amendment that pro-\nposes to change existing law may\ndepend on the extent to which the\nbill itself seeks to change the law.\nA bill comprehensively amendingseveral sections of existing law\nmay be sufficiently broad in scope\nto admit as germane an amend-\nment which is germane to another\nsection of that law not amended\nby the bill.(18)But where a bill\namends existing law in one nar-\nrow particular, an amendment\nproposing to modify such existing\nlaw in other particulars will gen-\nerally be ruled out as not ger-\nmane.(19)As an example, if a bill\nseeks only to modify the penalty\nprovisions of a law proscribing\nspecified conduct, an amendment\nwill not be germane if it seeks to\nbroaden the scope or alter the ap-\nplicability of such law.(20)It is\ngenerally held, therefore, that, to\na bill amending existing law in\none particular, an amendment\nproposing to modify an unrelated\nsection of the law(1)or relating to\nterms of that law that are not re-\nferred to in the bill(2)is not ger-\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01436 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8817AMENDMENTS AND THE GERMANENESS RULE Ch. 28 §35\nticular purpose, an amendment pro-\nposing changes in another section of\nthat law in a manner not within the\nterms of the bill is not germane.

It may be said, then, that,\nto a bill amending one section of\nan existing law, an amendment\nproposing further modification of\nthe law, as by amending another\nsection of that law, is usually not\ngermane.(3)\nSimilarly, if a bill amends exist-\ning law in several respects, but re-\nlates to a single subject or has a\nsingle purpose, an amendment is\nnot germane that proposes to\nmodify the law further in a man-\nner not related to the purpose of\nthe bill.(4)\nTo a bill amending existing law\nin a limited respect, an amend-\nment repealing the law is not ger-\nmane. Accordingly, to a bill estab-\nlishing a new office within a gov-\nernment department, an amend-\nment to abolish the department is\nnot germane.(5)\nThe rule may be broadly stated\nthat, to a bill proposing solely to\namend one subtitle of an act, an\namendment is not germane which\nwould have the effect of repealing\nor amending other sections of the\nact that are not within the pur-\nview of the bill.(6)It has been held that where an\namendment to a bill proposes\nmodification of a section of exist-\ning law in some respects, an\namendment to the amendment\nmay properly propose modification\nof the same section of the law in\nother respects.(7)Thus, it is held\nthat, to a substitute amendment\nmodifying a section of existing\nlaw, an amendment further modi-\nfying that section may be ger-\nmane.(8)\nSimilarly, to an amendment in\nthe nature of a substitute, amend-\ning several sections of an existing\nlaw, an amendment proposing fur-\nther modification of one of the sec-\ntions sought to be amended has\nbeen held to be germane.(9)\nWhere a bill amends existing\nlaw in two unrelated respects, an\namendment proposing a third\nmodification may be germane.(10)\nTo a bill amending two sections\nof the Food Stamp Act of 1964, an\namendment proposing a change in\na third section of the act was held\ngermane.(11)\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01437 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8818DESCHLER -BROWN PRECEDENTS Ch. 28 §35\n12.See §§ 35.30, 39.24, infra.\n13.See § 35.8, infra.\n14.See § 18.7, supra.\n15.See §§ 35.73, 35.74, infra.\n16.See § 35.44, infra.17.See Sec. 35.44, infra.\n18.See the ruling of Chairman Wilbur\nD.

A SHBROOK : Mr. Chairman, I\nraise the point of order on the basis of\nthe Chair's previous construction of\nH.R. 8410 and amendments offered\nthereto.\nI point out to the Chair the amend-\nment offered by the gentleman from\nMichigan (Mr. Ford) is not within the\nscope of the bill. It refers in three\nplaces to section 9(a) of the National\nLabor Relations Act. Section 9(a) is not\nopened up, as the Chair can determine,\nby H.R. 8410. It is nongermane to my\namendment. It goes beyond the scope\nof my amendment. The gentleman\nfrom Michigan himself has indicated\nthat what he is trying to do is codify a\nprinciple in case law. That in effect is\na substantive effort. ...\nMR. F ORD of Michigan: . . . Mr.\nChairman, I agree with the gentleman\nthat I am attempting to codify the case\nlaw, but I thought that I was agreeing\nwith his attempt to codify the case law\nbecause we are both citing the same\ncase as authority for the language we\nwould now have as a part of the stat-\nute.\nAs to that part of the change in the\namendment that is common to both his\namendment and mine, the basis of the\ncase law we have cited is exactly thesame. Mine certainly could not be\nfound not to be germane, inasmuch as\nwe rely on exactly the same basis for\nthe language. Moreover, there is noth-\ning in my substitute that makes sub-\nstantive changes in the law with re-\nspect to the rights of employers and\nemployees. It has to do only with pro-\ncedural practices in keeping with the\nentire thrust of this bill to improve and\nstreamline and codify for that purpose\npast practices and procedures.\nWith respect to section 9 of the act,\nwhile it might be said that these proce-\ndures refer to section 9 of the act, for\nthat matter they refer to all of the act.\nBut they are limited, and this amend-\nment is limited to affecting the method\nby which these improvements achieve\nthe end of the act and not intended in\nany way to effect a substantial change\nin the sections of the act that are sub-\nject to this procedure. ...\nMR. A SHBROOK : Mr. Chairman, I\nwould merely want to reiterate that\nthe gentleman's amendment clearly re-\nfers to section 9(a). Section 9(a) has\nnot been opened up by this act. It is\nnot a proper substitute. The Chair on\nseveral occasions has taken a very\nstrict interpretation of H.R. 8410 as it\nrelates to the National Labor Relations\nAct, and I do not believe it can be\nopened up at this point inconsistent\nwith those rulings.\nTHECHAIRMAN : The Chair would\nlike to inquire of the gentleman from\nMichigan (Mr. Ford) as to how his sub-\nstitute would affect section 9(a) of the\nact.\nMR.

That is the\ntest.\nThe substitute amendment offered\nby the gentleman from Michigan (Mr.\nFord), down to section 9, in the middle\nof the first page, contains the same\nlanguage of the amendment offered by\nthe gentleman from Ohio (Mr.\nAshbrook). From that point in the sub-\nstitute, the Chair is of the opinion that\nthe substitute sets forth exceptions to\nthe Ashbrook amendment and incor-\nporates definitions contained in section\n9(a) of the act without amending other\nsections of the law, and it seems to be\nrelated to and is germane to the\namendment offered by the gentleman\nfrom Ohio (Mr. Ashbrook).\nTherefore, the Chair overrules the\npoint of order.\nProcedural Rules Governing\nLabor Organization and\nElectionsÐAmendment Relat-\ning to Unfair Labor Practices\n§35.25 Where the pending sec-\ntion of a bill proposes toamend existing law in one\nparticular, an amendment to\nfurther amend the law in an-\nother respect unrelated to\nthe pending portion of the\nbill and to the portion of ex-\nisting law which it amends is\nnot germane; thus, to a sec-\ntion of a bill amending that\nsection of the National Labor\nRelations Act relating to pro-\ncedural rules governing\nlabor elections and organiza-\ntion, an amendment chang-\ning the same section of exist-\ning law to require the pro-\nmulgation of rules defining\ncertain conduct as grounds\nfor voiding a labor election\nwas held not germane, where\nneither the pending section\nnor the bill itself addressed\nthe subject of unfair labor\npractices as dealt with in an-\nother section of existing law.\nDuring consideration of H.R.\n8410(12)in the Committee of the\nWhole on Oct. 5, 1977,(13)the\nChair sustained a point of order\nagainst the amendment described\nabove.

Under section 3, the Board is\ndirected to make rules that: First, af-\nfect union actions during representa-\ntion campaigns; second, define classes\nof representation cases; and third,\nschedules governing the holding of\nelections.\nThe amendment proposed effectively\nchanges section 8(c) of the National\nLabor Relations Act, not before us in\nthis bill, which deals with unfair labor\npractices. As such, it is not directed at\nthe limited subject and scope of this\nbill in dealing with rulemaking amend-\nments, as H.R. 8410 directs.\nIt is not in keeping with the act, and\nthe bill, which provides broad discre-\ntion to the Board in its rulemaking ca-pacity. Rather, it restricts absolutely\nthe nature and substance of the rule\nthe Board is directed to make.\nThe amendment deals not only with\norganization campaign and representa-\ntion cases, which is the subject matter\nof this bill, but with strikes, lockouts,\nand other labor disputes which are not\nwithin the parameters of H.R. 8410, or\nsection 3 of the committee bill.\nMr. Chairman, the amendment is\ntherefore nongermane. ...\nMR. A SHBROOK : Mr. Chairman, on\npage 17 of the bill, starting with line 1\nof this act, it says:\nThe Board shall within 12 months\nafter the date of enactment of the\nLabor Reform Act of 1977 issue regu-\nlations to implement the provisions\nof section 9(c)(6) including rulesÐ\nAnd it goes on, as a matter of fact,\non lines 3 through 15 in the subject\nmatter we just dispensed with a few\nmoments ago.

The Chair\nis of the opinion that the point of order\nmade by the gentleman from Michigan\n(Mr. Ford) should be sustained.\nThe Chair would like to state that\nunder section 3 of the committee bill\nthat is now before the Committee it\namends section 6 of the National Labor\nRelations Act and restates the existing\nauthority of the NLRB to promulgate\nrules and regulations to carry out the\nprovisions of the act, specifically in-\ncluding certain authority to make pro-\ncedural rules governing elections and\ngoverning the period of initial stages of\norganizational activity. The section of\nthe bill does not go to newly mandated\ndirections to the Board to promulgate\nregulations to implement section 8 of\nthe act.\nThe amendment offered by the gen-\ntleman from Ohio (Mr. Ashbrook),\nwhile not directly amending section 8\nof the act, would amend section 6 of\nthe act to direct the Board to promul-\ngate regulations, and the amendment\nwould by its terms elevate those regu-\nlations to a position of substantive law,\nwhich regulations would conclusively\npronounce what conduct shall or shall\nnot constitute grounds for setting aside\nan election.\nIn such form, the amendment goes\nbeyond the issue of implementing rule-\nmaking authority and deals directly\nwith the question of whether conduct,\nfor the first time, would constitute an\nunfair labor practice beyond the period\nof initial stages of organizational activ-\nity, a matter not addressed by the com-\nmittee bill in section 3.Therefore, the point of order is sus-\ntained.\n§35.26 To a section of a bill\nnarrowly amending one sec-\ntion of existing law dealing\nwith procedural rules gov-\nerning labor elections and\norganization, an amendment\nto require promulgation of\nrules defining unfair labor\npractices, a subject covered\nin another section of the law\nbut not addressed in the\npending section of the bill,\nwas held to be not germane.\nDuring consideration of H.R.\n8410(15)in the Committee of the\nWhole on Oct. 5, 1977,(16)the\nChair, in sustaining a point of\norder against the amendment de-\nscribed above, reiterated the prop-\nosition that an amendment must\nbe germane to the section of the\nbill to which it is offered.

Under section 3,\nthe Board is directed to make rules,\nfirst, that assure equal access during\nrepresentation campaigns, which we\nhave done; second, that define classes\nof representation cases; and three,\nschedules governing the holding of\nelections.\nThe amendment offered, in effect,\nchanges section 8 of the act relating to\nunfair labor practices. It is directed,\ntherefore, at a subject not con-\ntemplated in the bill and establishes a\nnew unfair labor practice, and is not\ngermane to the committee bill or to\nsection 3. ...\nMR. ASHBROOK : . . . I believe this\ndoes come under the general rule-\nmaking. It is in section 6. Further-\nmore, when we refer to willful viola-\ntions, on page 22, in section 7, this bill\ndoes refer to unfair labor practices,\nand I think under the previous prece-\ndents established, where we open up a\nsection referring to unfair labor prac-\ntices, it is now not timely for the chair-man to say that this bill does not\namend unfair labor practices. Section 7\nclearly refers to unfair labor practices,\nas does my amendment to section 3,\nand I would hope the Chair would\noverrule the point of order.\nTHE CHAIRMAN :(17)The Chair is\nready to rule.\nThe gentleman from Ohio (Mr.\nAshbrook) has offered an amendment\nthat, while not directly amending sec-\ntion 8 of the act, would amend section\n6 of the act to direct the Board to pro-\nmulgate regulations. The amendment\nwould really reach issues of sub-\nstantive law, since the regulations\nwould conclusively pronounce that cer-\ntain union conduct shall constitute an\nunfair labor practice under section 8.\nIn such form, the amendment goes be-\nyond the issue of implementing rule-\nmaking authority and deals directly\nwith the question of conduct which for\nthe first time would constitute an un-\nfair labor practice beyond the period of\ninitial stages of organizational activity,\na matter not addressed by the com-\nmittee bill in section 3.\nThe reference of the gentleman from\nOhio to the provisions of section 7 does\nnot alter the fact that an amendment\nmust be germane to the pending sec-\ntion.\nFor that reason, the Chair must sus-\ntain the point of order.\nProvisions Affecting Ceiling\nPrices Applicable to Certain\nPersonal ServicesÐAmend-\nment Affecting Prices Appli-\ncable to Manufacturers\n§35.27 To a committee amend-\nment making price and wage\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01473 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8854DESCHLER -BROWN PRECEDENTS Ch. 28 §35\n18.H.R. 3871 (Committee on Banking\nand Currency).\n19.97 C ONG.

Con-\nsequently, the amendment is not ger-\nmane.\nSpeaking in support of the point\nof order, Mr. John M.

[R ICHARDSON ] PREYER [of North\nCarolina]: Mr. Chairman, I raise a\npoint of order against the amend-\nment. ...\n[T]his amendment in its scope would\napply far beyond the purpose of the bill\nand the jurisdiction of the committee.\nThe jurisdiction of the committee and\nthe purpose of the bill is to deal with\nthe Department of Health, Education,\nand Welfare and increase the Depart-\nment's ability to investigate and pros-\necute medicare and medicaid fraud and\nabuse.\nHowever, the amendment covers not\nonly the Department of Health, Edu-\ncation, and Welfare but all the officers,\nemployees, and agents of the United\nStates. The committee report specifi-\ncally states, ``Under the bill PSRO's\nand employees or agents of the Federal\nGovernment may not inspect, acquire\nor require the disclosure of individually\nidentifiable medical records.'' The\nWays and Means Committee does not\nhave jurisdiction, for example, over the\nemployees of the Department of De-\nfense, the Veterans' Administration, or\nthe Federal courts.\nIn addition this amendment clearly\nconflicts with the Deschler precedent\nin chapter 28, section 8.1, which states\nthatÐ\nTo a bill limited in its application\nto certain departments and agencies\nof government, an amendment appli-cable to all departments and agen-\ncies is not germane.\nFinally, Mr. Chairman, I note the\namendment attempts to supersede all\nother laws and regulations of the\nUnited States in conflict with this\namendment. This violates the principle\nof the Deschler precedent in chapter\n28, section 29.4 which states thatÐ\nTo a bill referring to certain provi-\nsions of existing law, an amendment\nrepealing a portion of that law was\nheld not germane. ...\nMR. [P HILIP M.] C RANE [of Illinois]:\n... Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition\nto the point of order. The Ways and\nMeans amendment, set forth as section\n5(l) of H.R. 3 as reported by that com-\nmittee, is clearly germane to the origi-\nnal bill and the bill in its current form.\nIn the first place, Mr. Chairman,\nH.R. 3 ostensibly has as its purpose\nthe prevention of fraud and abuse in\nthe medicare and medicaid programs.\nTo achieve that objective, a very com-\nplex set of provisions were put into the\noriginal bill, including provisions in\nsection 5, that greatly strengthen the\ninvestigatory and enforcement roles of\nprofessional standards review organi-\nzations (PSRO's).\nThese organizations do not simply\nacquire and inspect records only of\nmedicare and medicaid patients, or of\ndoctors and other health professionals\nwho treat only those patients. Quite\nthe contrary is true. PSRO's are re-\nquired to compile statistically valid\n``profiles'' of patients and providers, in\norder to identify, among other things,\npatterns of suspected unnecessary\nservices and treatment that does not\nconform to ``appropriate'' medical\nstandards. In so doing, they not only\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01488 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8869AMENDMENTS AND THE GERMANENESS RULE Ch. 28 §35\nmayÐthey mustÐinspect, acquire, and\nrequire the disclosure of the records of\nprivate patients and their doc-\ntors. ...\nMr. Chairman, I am well aware of\nthe precedents of this bodyÐand I am\ncertain that my colleagues on the Ways\nand Means Committee are as wellÐ\nthat would not allow section 5(l) of\nH.R. 3 to be broader in scope than the\noriginal bill. The fact is, however, that\nsection 5(h) of the bill now before us\nclearly extends the specter of unau-\nthorized violations of patients' rights to\nconfidentiality to all patients, by all\nFederal agencies and departments.\nThere is no way for Congress to know,\nin advance, precisely who will seek to\ninspect, acquire or require the disclo-\nsure of the data and records gathered\nby a PSRO and mandated to be shared\nwith others by the original language of\nH.R. 3. Furthermore, a private pa-\ntient's medical record can be trans-\nformed into a medicare or medicaid pa-\ntient's record simply by a change in\nthe status of the patientÐhis becoming\neligible, for example, through dis-\nability, age, or poverty. The medicare\nand medicaid programs have much to\nfear if the kinds of safeguards provided\nfor in the Crane-Stark amendment are\nnot extended to all records of patients\nand all Federal officials.\nThe Crane-Stark amendment most\ncertainly relates to the fundamental\npurpose of H.R. 3, and applies only to\nthose individuals, agencies and depart-\nments that are within the scope of the\noriginal bill. To decide otherwise\nwould, I respectfully submit, signifi-\ncantly and adversely affect the very\npatients who are the intended bene-\nficiaries of this important legislation. It\nwould create potential barriers be-tween patient and doctor by inhibiting\nfree communication, since there would\nbe no guarantees that their jobs would\nbe secure or their friends and families\nwould be free from interrogation and\ninvestigation by the Federal Govern-\nment. ...\nTHECHAIRMAN : The Chair is pre-\npared to rule.\nThe gentleman from North Carolina\nmakes the point of order against the\namendment recommended by the Com-\nmittee on Ways and Means printed on\npage 66, line 22, through page 70, line\n5, on the grounds that it is not ger-\nmane to the bill H.R. 3.\nThe bill amends several titles of the\nSocial Security Act to correct fraudu-\nlent activities under the medicare and\nmedicaid programs by strengthening\npenalty sanctions, increasing disclo-\nsure of information requirements, im-\nproving the professional standards re-\nview program, and by proposing cer-\ntain administrative reforms.\nThe amendment recommended by\nthe Committee on Ways and Means,\nwhile addressing the role of profes-\nsional standards review organizations\nin permitting disclosure of confidential\nmedical records of patients under\nmedicare and medicaid programs, goes\nbeyond that issue and encompasses a\nprohibition against any officer or em-\nployee of the Federal Government from\ndisclosing any identifiable medical\nrecord absent specific authorization\nfrom the patient.

The bill be-\nfore us, H.R. 6778, defines a bank\nholding company as any company that\ndirectly or indirectly owns or controls\n25 percent or more of the voting shares\nof any bank. ...\nTestimony before our committee in-\ndicated that in some instances compa-\nnies might seek to avoid coverage of\nthe act by keeping their stock owner-\nship at less than 25 percent. My\namendment simply modifies H.R. 6778\nby providing that actual control of any\nbank, even at less than 25 percent, is\nsufficient to require the controlling\ncompany to register as a bank holding\ncompany. ...\nSecond, Mr. Chairman, my amend-\nment makes it clear, subject to action\nby the Federal Reserve Board, that noforeign institution will be a bank hold-\ning company by virtue of its ownership\nor control of any bank the greater part\nof whose business is conducted outside\nthe United States. ...\nAfter adoption of the Ashley\namendment, the following amend-\nment was offered to the bill:(5)\nAmendment offered by Mr.\n[Chalmers P.] Wylie [of Ohio]: Page 12,\nimmediately after line 21, insert the\nfollowing:\n(c) Section 2(b) of the Bank Hold-\ning Company Act of 1956 is amended\n(A) by inserting ``partnership,'' imme-\ndiately after ``corporation,'', (B) by\nstriking ``(1)'', and (C) by striking\n``, or (2) any partnership''. ...\nA point of order was raised\nagainst the amendment, as fol-\nlows:\nMR.

The Committee of the\nWhole has adopted, among others, the\nAshley amendment, which completely\nrewrites the definition of ``bank holding\ncompany'' in the Bank Holding Com-\npany Act.\nIt is obvious that the legal signifi-\ncance of the definition of ``bank holding\ncompany'' depends in turn on the defi-\nnition of ``company.'' It is equally obvi-\nous that a change in the definition of\n``company'' will, to that extent, modify\nthe definition of ``bank holding com-\npany.''\nMy amendment, Mr. Chairman,\namends the definition of ``company'' so\nas to include partnerships. I think it is\nclear, Mr. Chairman, that my amend-\nment thereby modifies the definition of\n``bank holding company''Ðindeed, Mr.\nChairman, this is its principal purpose.\nBy adopting the Ashley amendment,\nthe Committee of the Whole nec-\nessarily made in order any amendment\nproposing a germane modification of\nthe bill as so amended, in accord with\nthe principle which I stated at the be-\nginning of my remarks. ...\nThe Chairman,(6)in ruling on\nthe point of order, stated:...The fact that there was no\npoint of order raised to the Ashley\namendment allowed the Ashley amend-\nment to be considered and adopted by\nthe committee and that changed the\ntenor of the bill to the extent that the\nlanguage therein be changed, and the\ncommittee amendment now under con-\nsideration amends sections 2(a) and\n4(c) of the act. These two sections, and\nthe amendment proposed to them, are\nunrelated. The committee report on the\npending bill discloses that the com-\nmittee amendment does two things:\nSubjects single bank holding compa-\nnies to the 1956 act and changes the\nexisting law with respect to what par-\nticular nonbanking activities are pro-\nhibited to them.\nIt is a well-established principle of\nthe germaneness rule that where a bill\namends existing law in two or more\nunrelated respects, other amendments\nto that law may be germane. ...\nSection 2(b) of existing law . . . de-\nfines the word ``company'' as it is used\nin the term ``bank holding company''\nand elsewhere in the act. ...\nSince the committee amendment\namends two provisions of existing law\nand opened up for consideration the\nmeaning of the term ``bank holding\ncompany,'' . . . words within or depend-\nent upon that term, even if defined\nelsewhere in the act, are also subject to\ninterpretation and definition.\nThe Chair holds the amendment ger-\nmane and overrules the point of order.\nBill Amending Federal Reserve\nActÐAmendment To Permit\nNational Banks To Purchase\nCertain Banks Under An-\nother Law\n§35.50 To a bill amending an\nexisting law to accomplish a\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01500 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8881AMENDMENTS AND THE GERMANENESS RULE Ch. 28 §35\n7.The Monetary Control Act of 1979.\n8.125 C ONG.

JOHNSON of Pennsylvania: . ..\nMr. Chairman, I rise to defend the\namendment against the point of order\nraised by the gentleman from Rhode\nIsland. The amendment is indeed ger-\nmane to the fundamental purpose of\nthe bill before us today. On its face,\nthe bill provides full insurance of the\ndeposits of public units in all insured\nbanks and institutions. As such, it is\ndesigned and intended to make a basic\nchange in the relationships between\nthe financial institutions which are\nregulated by the Federal Reserve, the\nFederal Deposit Insurance Corpora-\ntion, and the Federal Home Loan Bank\nBoardÐthe intention is to redistribute\nthe deposits among these institutions.\nIn the bill, the primary method for\nachieving this redistribution is through\nthe provision of insurance. Whereas,\npublic deposits are presently limited\nfor all practical purposes to commercial\nbanks, which can supplement their ac-\ncount insurance with the protection af-\nforded by the pledging of collateral to\nsecure these public depositsÐand this\npledging is required in most instances\nby State lawÐthe thrust of the pend-\ning legislation is to enable thrift insti-\ntutions, savings and loan associations,\nand mutual savings banks in par-\nticular, to accept these public deposits.\nMy amendment would only serve to\nmodify these terms and conditions\nunder which the deposits of public\nfunds would be accepted by the finan-\ncial institutions involved. The same\nfundamental purpose would be sought\nby amendment as by the bill itself,\nthat of regulating the flow of public\nfunds between these institutions. ...\nIt is claimed that the difference in\nterms on its face makes my amend-\nment nongermane, since the bill dealswith insurance of deposits, and my\namendment deals with the interest or\ndividends payable on those deposits.\nHowever, I must insist that the pur-\npose and thrust be examined, rather\nthan just the language.\nThe reason for extending full insur-\nance of these deposits is to influence\nthe custodians of these public funds in\ntheir decisions as to where they will be\ndepositedÐthat is the stated purpose\nof this bill, as reported by the Banking\nand Currency Committee and as dis-\ncussed here on the House floor today.\nIn no way does my amendment de-\npart from this same fundamental pur-\nposeÐit seeks to use the powers of the\nsame regulatory agencies to influence\nthe same deposits of the same public\ndepositors in the same institu-\ntions. ...\nTHECHAIRMAN :(11)The Chair is pre-\npared to rule.\nThe gentleman from Rhode Island\n(Mr. St Germain) makes the point of\norder that the amendment offered by\nthe gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr.\nJohnson) is not germane to the bill\nH.R. 11221. . . .\nThe pending bill provides for full de-\nposit insurance coverage for deposits of\npublic funds in various types of sav-\nings institutions without regard to the\nexisting $20,000 ceiling, and provides\nfor an increase in the present $20,000\nceiling on deposit insurance for indi-\nvidual accounts to $50,000.

Nowhere\nin any of the covered acts is there a\nspecific definition of ``Federal financial\nassistance,'' but Mr. Chairman, Con-\ngress obviously must pay its bills from\nsomewhere and that somewhere is the\nFederal Government, so that means\nthat there is assistance.

As I understand his amendment\n... it refers to basic law. His amend-\nment, in order to be germane, would\nhave to be germane to my amendment\nwhich is under consideration.\nThe Chairman,(6)in ruling on\nthe point of order, stated:\nSection 302 is an amendment of ex-\nisting law contained in section 106(f)(2)\nof the Housing Act of 1949. That lan-\nguage presumably is germane to sec-\ntion 106(f)(2).

[B ARBARA A.] M IKULSKI [of\nMaryland]: Mr. Chairman, I make a\npoint of order against the bill on the\ngrounds that the amendment is not\ngermane because the amendment\namends the Interstate Commerce Act\nand the Clayton Antitrust Act.\nMr. Chairman, the amendment in\nthe nature of a substitute is basically\nan authorization; it authorizes USRA\nto purchase ConRail securities. The\namendment offered by the gentleman\nfrom New York (Mr. Murphy) not only\namends these two statutes, but also\nmakes new policy concerning intraport\nequalization. The bill is not a policy\noriented bill dealing with the Inter-\nstate Commerce Act, but is rather es-\nsentially an authorization bill, by far,\nand I think it is not germane. ...\nMR. M URPHY [of New York:] Mr.\nChairman, this amendment was adopt-\ned by this House, passed into law, and\nincorporated in the 4R Act of 1976.\nWhat this amendment does is just\nrestate the fact of the matter because\nthe Interstate Commerce Commission\nand, of course, ConRail itself have\nfailed to implement the law.\nMr. Chairman, the amendment cer-\ntainly is germane. It has already been\npart of this act, and it is a restatement\nof the original amendment of 3 years\nago. ...\nMR. R OBERT E. B AUMAN [of Mary-\nland]: Mr. Chairman, I point out that\nthe substitute amendment to which the\namendment is proposed amends the\nRegional Rail Reorganization Act. The\namendment itself, however, amends\nthe Interstate Commerce Act, an en-\ntirely different statute; and as has\nbeen pointed out by the gentlewoman\nfrom Maryland [Ms. Mikulski], theClayton Act, which is not, I under-\nstand, under the jurisdiction of this\ncommittee, but under the jurisdiction\nof the Committee on the Judiciary,\nwhich is a test of germaneness.\nMr. Chairman, the entire thrust of\nthe gentleman's amendment deals with\nthe establishment and maintenance of\nrates, charges, and tariffs and their\nclassifications and divisions, whereas\nthe bill itself deals with nothing like\nthat, but, rather, with the funding, de-\nbentures, and stocks and other related\nmatters dealing with ConRail. ...\nTHECHAIRMAN :(18)The Chair is pre-\npared to rule.\nThe gentlewoman from Maryland\n[Ms. Mikulski] makes a point of order\nthat the amendment offered by the\ngentleman from New York (Mr. Mur-\nphy) is not germane to the amendment\nin the nature of a substitute in that\nthe Rooney amendment in the nature\nof a substitute amends the Regional\nRail Transportation Act and provides\nfor financial assistance to railroads in\nthe ConRail system, while the amend-\nment offered thereto amends the Inter-\nstate Commerce Act and also provides\nchanges in the Clayton Act which deal\nwith the issue of antitrust matters and\nrailroad rates applicable not only to\nConRail but to other rail systems.\nThe Chair, therefore, sustains the\npoint of order.\nBill Amending Several Sec-\ntions of LawÐAmendment Af-\nfecting Sections Not Men-\ntioned in Bill\n§35.81 A bill amending several\nsections of an existing law\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01541 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8922DESCHLER -BROWN PRECEDENTS Ch. 28 §35\n19.121 C ONG.

The Oberstar amendmentwould introduce a Buy America re-\nquirement, through which funds will\nbe limited, into the Urban Mass Tran-\nsit Act of 1964, where none now exists,\nand in so doing, it repeals the similar\nprovision that currently exists in the\nSurface Transportation Assistance Act\nof 1978. It is an attempt to amend the\nSurface Transportation Assistance Act\nof 1978 by adding to the statute which\nthis bill amends and repealing it where\nit currently exists.\nIt may be argued that the amend-\nments made by this bill are sufficiently\nbroad to open the entire 1964 act for\namendment. But the 1964 act contains\nno such domestic content provision.\nThe Oberstar amendment introduces\na new subject, and couching it in lan-\nguage that tacks the provision on at\nthe end of the existing section of the\n1964 act is not enough to make it ger-\nmane.\nThe Oberstar amendment really\namends the Surface Transportation\nAct of 1978, an act which itself amend-\ned the 1964 act.\nI submit that regardless of whether\nH.R. 6417 is broad enough to open the\nentire 1964 act for amendment, it is\nnot broad enough to open other acts .\n. . for amendments as well, and neither\nis it broad enough to render germane\nany new subject. ...\nMR.

That\nlaw in 1978 was in effect amended by\nthe Buy America title contained in the\nSurface Transportation Assistance Act,\nand the pending amendment only al-\nters the effect of the 1978 law as it re-\nlates to authorities under UMTA.

What it purports to do, in ef-\nfect, is to change the role of the Presi-\ndency and that of the Congress and to\nafford a special procedure by which\nthis bill reserves to the Congress the\nadministrative position, a position in\nwhich as a condition subsequent to the\npassage of this bill this bill may re-\nquire a second look at the entire ques-\ntion and a determination on the ques-\ntion of policy by the Congress.\nThe major thrust of my point of\norder does not go to any question of\nconstitutionality.\nIt indicates too the fact that the mat-\nter contained herein so sweepingly al-\nters the procedures of the House, and\nthe work to accommodate itself to thispeculiar and unusual problem, that it\nis far beyond the scope of any provision\nin the bill. It does not in a minor man-\nner change the bill, but it changes it in\nan extremely substantial manner be-\ncause it calls upon the House to make\na deep and complete policy determina-\ntion with respect to the question of al-\nlocation at a time subsequent to the\npassage of the bill, and give that policy\ndetermination the effect of law as a\ncondition subsequent to its particular\nenactment. ...\nMR.

The Chair in its\nruling is persuaded that the question\nis a narrow question. The Chair does\nnot rule on the constitutional questions\nraised in this argument; but there are\ntwo aspects of the matter that the\nChair takes into consideration in its\ndecision. One, which the Chair believes\nto be the lesser one, is the fact that in\nthe original bill there is a similar pro-\nvision which in turn was offered as an\namendment to the amendment in the\nnature of a substitute. But the Chair\nrelies primarily on the fact that the\namendment offered by the gentleman\nfrom Pennsylvania (Mr. Heinz) is in\nfact an amendment to section 4 of Pub-\nlic Law 93±159, the Emergency Petro-\nleum Allocation Act which, in a dif-\nferent manner, does provide for a pro-\ncedure whereby the President shallmake submissions to the Congress.\nAnd whereby either House may dis-\napprove of such submissions.\nTherefore the Chair overrules the\npoint of order.\nIndirectly Superseding Other\nLaw\n§35.87 To a section of a bill\namending the Defense Pro-\nduction Act providing finan-\ncial assistance for synthetic\nfuel development to meet na-\ntional defense needs, an\namendment providing expe-\ndited review and approval of\ncertain designated priority\nprojects to be financed by\nthe bill, thereby indirectly\naffecting time periods for\nprocedural review specified\nin other laws, but not specifi-\ncally waiving provisions of\nsubstantive law which might\nprohibit completion of such\nprojects, was held germane\nas not directly amending\nsubstantive environmental or\nenergy laws within the juris-\ndiction of other committees.\nOn June 26, 1979,(14)during\nconsideration of H.R. 3930(15)in\nthe Committee of the Whole,\nChairman Gerry E.

It does\nnot change any environmental protec-\ntion laws or anything else, but it says\nwe are going to have decisions. Within\nnine months after this is put on the\nfast track, we are going to get a yes or\nno decision on it. ...\nThis amendment simply supple-\nments the existing statutory proce-\ndures to achieve expedited approval or\ndisapproval of various authorities nec-\nessary for the completion of synfuel\nprojects created under the authority of\nthe legislation; so the subject matter of\nthe amendment is germane to the sub-\nject of the pending legislation.

The purpose and\nscope of the bill must be considered. In\nthe 89th Congress, the Committee of\nthe Whole had under consideration a\nbill amending the National Labor Rela-\ntions Act to repeal section 14(b) of that\nlaw.

The gen-\ntleman seeks to include his amend-\nment in title III, which relates to tech-\nnical and miscellaneous amendments.\nClearly, the amendment offered by the\ngentleman is not technical and is sub-\nstantial in nature.\nIt is my view that the amendment is\nin violation of clause 7 of rule XVI of\nthe Rules of the House of Representa-\ntives. I cite as precedent for my posi-\ntion the ruling of the Chair on Novem-\nber 29, 1971, when the Chair ruled\nthat an amendment to regulate a\nbroad scope of activities is not germane\nto a proposition imposing restrictions\nwithin a limited area of activities.\nI would also cite as a precedent the\nruling of the Chair on April 28, 1971,\nto the effect that an amendment pro-\nposing changes in another section of a\nlaw is not germane to a bill amending\none section of existing law to accom-\nplish a particular purpose. ...\nThe amendment is also in violation\nof clause 5 of rule XXI, relating to ap-\npropriations since the amendment is\neffective immediately and thereby af-\nfects already appropriated funds. ...\nTHECHAIRMAN :(4)The Chair is pre-\npared to rule.\nIn connection with the point of order\nthe gentleman from Minnesota makes\nregarding the question of germaneness,\nthe Chair has examined the amend-\nment and the legislation to which the\namendment is offered. Upon an exam-\nination of title III, which is a very di-\nverse title and is open to amendment\nat any point, that title actually amendsPublic Law 81±874 in two diverse re-\nspects, as indicated on pages 214 to\n217 of the Ramseyer rule in the com-\nmittee report, section 403 of that act is\namended in the bill on page 186. This\namendment would make a further\nchange in that section of the law.\nTherefore, on the basis of germane-\nness, it is the opinion of the Chair that\nthe amendment is germane; however,\nwith respect to the point of order that\nthe amendment violates clause 5, rule\nXXI, it appears to the Chair, recalling\nthe debate on the rule of yesterday\nwhere points of order were waived\nagainst the committee amendment,\nthat there are in existence appro-\npriated funds for impact aid purposes\nwhich this amendment would permit to\nbe used for a new category of recipi-\nents. Since the amendment permits a\nnew use of funds already appropriated,\nthe Chair would have to hold that that\namendment is a violation of clause 5,\nrule XXI and, therefore, would sustain\nthat portion of the point of order.\nNow, the Chair would state, of\ncourse, that we are dealing here with a\npoint of order dealing exclusively with\nthe reuse of funds already appro-\npriated.\nTherefore, the Chair sustains the\npoint of order in connection with clause\n5 of rule XXI.\nParliamentarian's Note: While\nthe bill was primarily a vocational\nEducation Act amendment and ex-\ntension, title III amended mis-\ncellaneous education laws, includ-\ning diverse laws on elementary\nand secondary education, and\nthus greatly broadened the scope\nof the bill.\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01564 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8945AMENDMENTS AND THE GERMANENESS RULE Ch. 28 §35\n5.121 C ONG.

[C HARLES C.] D IGGS [Jr., of\nMichigan]: Mr. Chairman, I make a\npoint of order against the amendment\non the ground that it is nongermane.\nThe purpose of H.R. 15888 is to accom-\nplish several specific goals, including\nthe development of low- and moderate-\nincome housing, increase employment\nopportunities for District residents,\nand the development of substandard\nand blighted residential, commercial,\nand industrial areas in our National\nCapital in time for our Nation's Bicen-\ntennial. Clearly, the powers conferred\non the proposed Corporation are spe-\ncifically subject to the limited and cir-\ncumscribed purpose in the provisions\nof the bill. Accordingly, we must read\nthe powers of the bill contained in sec-\ntion 201 in the context of the purposes\nand findings contained in section 102.\nNowhere do we find a statement that\nthe Corporation may engage in estab-\nlishing parking facilities or the regula-\ntion thereof. To argue that the powers\nare so broad as to allow an amendment\nwhich purpose is to restrict the overall\npowers of the Council is, in my view,\noutside of the purposes of H.R. 15888\nand therefore nongermane. ...\nAny amendment which seeks to deal\nwith Council authority over parking in\nareas under the control of the United\nStates or the District of Columbia gov-\nernment, which would include the\nstreets of the District, clearly goes be-\nyond the limited powers granted the\nCorporation under this act. Accord-\ningly, it would be nongermane. ...\nMR. PARRIS : ...

Construct, manage or operate\npublic facilities for the District gov-\nernment or any other public body, at\nits request.\nAs I read this and as any responsible\nman would read this, the District gov-\nernment, if it wishes, could by enact-\nment or regulation permit this instru-\nmentality of the District of Columbia,\nthe District of Columbia Development\nand Finance Corporation, to manage\nand operate parking facilities in the\nDistrict of Columbia, be they on public\nproperty such as those where meters\nnow exist or other public property in\nresidential areas where a ban on non-\nresidential parking could be imposed.\nItem 17 on page 7 of the report indi-\ncated that the corporation may:\nManage its own property, or to\nenter into agreement with the Dis-\ntrict of Columbia government or a\nprivate entity for the management of\nproperty.\nHere again, this would certainly per-\nmit this corporation to engage in the\nmanagement of on-street parking in\nthe District of Columbia in either com-\nmercial or residential areas at the di-rection and discretion of the District of\nColumbia government and this cor-\nporation which is its instrumentality.\n...\nMr. Chairman, I submit that title II\nof H.R. 15888 is so broad and so gen-\neral that it permits this corporation,\nwhich it establishes, to perform nearly\nany function that the District of Co-\nlumbia government itself could per-\nform, because by and large such pow-\ners and authority could be delegated to\nit if, in fact, title II of the bill does not\ndirectly and expressly give those pow-\ners to that corporation. ...\nTHECHAIRMAN : The gentleman from\nMichigan makes a point of order\nagainst the amendment offered by the\ngentleman from Virginia.\nThe amendment offered by the gen-\ntleman from Virginia directly limits\nthe powers of the present District of\nColumbia Council, and of the Council\nto be established under the Home Rule\nAct, to regulate all parking facilities\nwithin the District of Columbia. The\nbill H.R. 15888, which the gentleman's\namendment seeks to amend, estab-\nlishes a Community Development and\nFinance Corporation and gives such\ncorporation certain powers. It does not\nappear to the Chair that the scope of\nthe bill extends to regulation, either by\nthe Corporation or by the City Council,\nof all parking within the District of Co-\nlumbia.\nThe amendment offered by the gen-\ntleman from Virginia does not even\nmention the powers of the Corporation\nwhich is the primary subject of H.R.\n15888, but limits instead the powers of\nthe City Council.

The new\nsection 303, added by amendment of\nthe gentleman from the District of Co-\nlumbia, only limits the powers of the\nCouncil as to the requirement that\nprojects which the Corporation is au-\nthorized to undertake be submitted for\napproval to congressional committees.\nThe new section 303 directly relates to\nthe financing of projects authorized in\nthe bill, and the section further states\nthat the Council may not change the\nrequirement of submission for congres-\nsional approval. It does not appear to\nthe Chair that that provision in any\nway amends the powers of the Council\nunder the Home Rule Act or that it\ntouches on any subject not in the bill\nH.R. 15888.\nSection 313, added by committee\namendment to specify that the bill\ndoes not preempt the legislative au-\nthority conferred on the City Council\nunder the Home Rule Act, does not\nbring the subject of the general powers\nof the City Council under the Home\nRule Act within the purview of the bill,\nexcept to the extent that the Council\nmay or may not control the activities of\nthe Corporation.\nFor the reasons stated, the Chair\nsustains the point of order.Restrictions on Funds for\nLegal Services CorporationÐ\nAmendment Making Criminal\nand Civil Laws Applicable to\nCorporation\n§35.98 To a Senate amend-\nment to a general appropria-\ntion bill subjecting funds for\nthe Legal Services Corpora-\ntion to a comprehensive se-\nries of restrictions on its ac-\ntivities for that fiscal year\nand reconstituting its board\nof directors, a proposed\namendment also applying to\nthat corporation ``with re-\nspect to the use of funds in\nthe bill'' certain substantive\nprovisions of Federal crimi-\nnal and civil law not other-\nwise applicable to it was held\nnot germane.\nThe proceedings of Oct. 26,\n1989, relating to the conference\nreport on H.R. 2991, Departments\nof Commerce, Justice, and State,\nthe Judiciary, and Related Agen-\ncies Appropriations Act, 1990, are\ndiscussed in § 34.37, supra.\nLaws Governing Handguns\nMade Applicable to RiflesÐ\nAmendment Requiring Fire-\narm Registration\n§35.99 To a bill which sought,\nas part of a comprehensive\nscheme for the regulation of\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01574 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8955AMENDMENTS AND THE GERMANENESS RULE Ch. 28 §35\n19.

[H ENRY J.] H YDE [of Illinois]:\nMr. Chairman, I make a point of order\nthat the amendment violates clause 7\nof rule XVI. . . . The proposed amend-\nment is not germane to the bill be-\ncause it deals with matters beyond the\nscope of the bill's provisions and the\namendment includes matters within\nthe jurisdiction of committees of the\nHouse not reporting the bill under con-\nsideration.\nMr. Chairman, the amendment is\nnot germane, and consequently violates\nclause 7 of rule XVI in the following\nspecific respects:\nFirst, the bill authorizes funds for a\nlimited number of executive depart-\nments or their subcomponents speci-\nfied in section 101 of the bill and\nmakes a few very modest changes in\nthe statutory authorities of only a few\nof those agencies.\nThe amendment would enact a com-\nprehensive scheme of oversight and re-\nporting requirements for all U.S. intel-\nligence activities which are engaged in\nby any U.S. Government agency, not\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01582 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8963AMENDMENTS AND THE GERMANENESS RULE Ch. 28 §35\njust those covered by the bill, as well\nas by third parties outside of the U.S.\nGovernment. (Amndt: p. 4, lines 6±12.)\nIn this regard, I call attention to a\nruling by the Chair on September 27,\n1967 (113 Cong. Rec. page 26957) cited\nin section 798f of the Rules and Prac-\ntice of the House of Representatives.\nThat ruling states that, ``To a bill lim-\nited in its applicability to certain de-\npartments and agencies of government,\nan amendment applicable to all depart-\nments and agencies is not germane.''\nSecond, the only provision of the bill\naddressing congressional oversight of\nintelligence is section 503. That provi-\nsion is limited to oversight related only\nto one specific and narrow class of in-\ntelligence activities, and that is com-\nmercial cover activities to provide secu-\nrity only for intelligence collection.\nMoreover, section 503 of the bill ap-\nplies only to elements of one executive\ndepartment, the Defense Department,\nand the provision expires at the end of\n5 years.\nThe amendment goes far beyond that\none new and specifically limited over-\nsight subject in the bill. The amend-\nment provides for a comprehensive\noversight system for intelligence activi-\nties of the U.S. Government in general,\nand in some cases the role of outside\nthird parties. The amendment is also\nnot limited in duration, as is section\n503 of the bill, but is broader because\nit would enact a permanent statutory\nchange. In these regards, the amend-\nment is not germane because it is more\ngeneral in nature than the only provi-\nsion of the bill which deals with one\nparticular and narrow class within the\ngeneral subject of intelligence over-\nsight reporting.\nThe amendment further requires, as\npart of its oversight scheme, that theHouse and Senate establish certain\nprocedures by adopting internal rules\nor resolutions, matters not dealt with\nin any form by the bill. (Amndt: page\n3, lines 4±18.)\nThird, the amendment is not ger-\nmane because its text consists entirely\nof provisions repealing or amending\nsections of two statutes not amended\nor addressed by the bill under consid-\neration.\nThe amendment extensively amends\ntitle V of the National Security Act of\n1947, codified in title 50 of the United\nStates Code, and repeals section 662 of\nthe Foreign Assistance Act of 1961,\ncodified in title 22 of the United States\nCode. The bill does not amend either of\nthose statutes, and indeed, does not\namend any part of title 22 of the\nUnited States Code.\nSection 799 of the Rules and Practice\nof the House of Representatives cites a\nruling by the Chair on May 11, 1976,\nthat, ``Generally to a bill amending one\nexisting law, an amendment changing\nthe provisions of another law . .. is\nnot germane.'' Precedents cited in sec-\ntions 33.1 and 33.3 of chapter 28 of\nProcedures in the U.S. House of Rep-\nresentatives, 97th Congress, 4th Edi-\ntion (Deschler and Brown) support this\nprinciple with which the proposed\namendment is inconsistent.\nFurthermore, chapter 28, section\n33.14 of Deschler and Brown's Proce-\ndures in the U.S. House of Representa-\ntives, 97th Congress, 4th Edition cites\na precedent from a ruling of March 7,\n1974 (120 Cong Rec. 5653, 5654, 93rd\nCong. 2nd Sess.) that, ``An amendment\nrepealing existing law has been held\nnot germane to a bill not amending\nthat law.''

(Amndt: page 1, lines 3±4.)\nFourth, the amendment is not ger-\nmane because it fails the test of com-\nmittee jurisdiction under section 798c\nof the Rules and Practice of the House\nof Representatives by including mat-\nters within the jurisdiction of commit-\ntees not reporting the bill, the Com-\nmittee on Foreign Affairs and Rules.\nThe amendment would repeal sec-\ntion 662 of the Foreign Assistance Act\nof 1961. That act is within the jurisdic-\ntion of the Foreign Affairs Committee.\n(Amndt: page 1, lines 3±4.)\nThe amendment also would require\nthe House (and one of its committees)\nto establish certain internal procedures\nby the adoption of House rules or reso-\nlutions. Such matters are within the\njurisdiction of the Committee on Rules.\n(Amndt: p. 3, lines 4±18.)\nFifth, the amendment (at p. 8, lines\n8±12) would create a penal offense,\nwhereas the pending bill does not deal\nwith or create any criminal offenses. In\naddition, the committees reporting the\nbill do not have jurisdiction to consider\nsuch matters. In that regard, I would\ncall the attention of the Chair to a\nprecedent of the House, rulings by the\nChairman of the Committee of the\nWhole, Mr. Forand on April 7, 1960. In\nthose rulings, the Chair sustained\npoints of order against two amend-\nments to a pending amendment in the\nnature of a substitute to a bill relating\nto employment of retired officers by\nDefense contractors reported from the\nArmed Services Committee. Those\npoints of order were sustained by the\nChair, which ruled that the substitutesdealt with the imposition of criminal\npenalties, a matter not dealt with in\nthe proposition being amended. Fur-\nther, the Chair ruled that the sub-\nstitutes' imposition of criminal pen-\nalties was a matter outside the juris-\ndiction of the committee which had re-\nported the pending bill [Armed Serv-\nices] and, if offered as a separate bill,\nwould have to be referred to the Com-\nmittee on the Judiciary.\nFor all the reasons given and in light\nof the precedents cited, the amendment\nis not germane, and therefore it vio-\nlates clause 7 of rule XVI. I insist upon\nmy point of order, Mr. Chairman. . . .\nMRS. BOXER : . . . We feel it is abso-\nlutely germane. We feel that there are\nother provisions in the bill, for example\non page 26 and page 33 that talk about\npermanent changes in law, and we\nwould say that this is absolutely ger-\nmane.\nMy goodness, we are talking about\ncovert activities, and certainly the In-\ntelligence Committee, and it is hard for\nme to believe that someone could say\nthat a discussion of covert activities in\nthis particular amendment would not\nbe germane to the intelligence author-\nization bill. . . .\nMR. [A NTHONY C.] B EILENSON [of\nCalifornia]: . . . I recognize the right of\nthe gentleman, of course, to make this\npoint of order and, in fact, I do not\nknow how the Chair will rule on the\nprecedents which the gentleman from\nIllinois has cited.

The amendment adds a new\ntitle and must be germane to the bill\nas a whole, as amended.\nThe bill authorizes funding for the\nintelligence community for 1 fiscal year\nand makes several, diverse changes in\npermanent law relating to sundry au-\nthorities of the Central Intelligence\nAgency and the Department of De-\nfense. For example, the bill makes\nchanges in the CIA retirement and dis-\nability system; it authorizes the Sec-\nretary of Defense to permit compo-\nnents of DOD to charge the CIA the\nsame rate for airlift services that they\nwould charge another component of\nDOD; and it authorizes the Secretary\nof Defense to withhold certain geodetic\nproducts from disclosure under the\nFreedom of Information Act. In addi-\ntion, the bill, as perfected, includes the\namendment recommended by the Com-\nmittee on Armed Services directing the\nSecretary of Defense to provide Mem-\nbers of Congress access to a classified\nreport of the Defense Intelligence\nAgency assessing efforts to account for\nmilitary personnel listed as prisoners\nof war or missing in action.\nThe amendment at the desk does not\nrepeal the Hughes-Ryan law, but does\namend title V of the National Security\nAct of 1947Ðrelating to accountability\nfor intelligence activities. Among other\nthings, it assigns to the President sev-\neral responsibilities of the type that\nthe existing act assigns to lower offi-\ncials, such as the Director of Central\nIntelligence.\nAlthough the bill does not amend the\nNational Security Act of 1947, neitherdoes it confine itself to authorities and\nactivities of the intelligence commu-\nnity. In addition to the changes in per-\nmanent law already noted, at section\n503 the bill inserts new provisions in\ntitle 10 of the United States CodeÐre-\nlating to the Armed ForcesÐto ensure\ncongressional oversight of activities of\nthe Department of Defense in commer-\ncial cover of intelligence operations.\nThus, the subject matter of the\namendmentÐthe relationship between\nthe executive branch and the Congress\nwith respect to the authorities and ac-\ntivities of the intelligence communityÐ\nis one of the diverse topics already ad-\ndressed in the bill.\nAccordingly, the point of order is\noverruled.\nMR. HYDE: Mr. Chairman, may I ask\none question?\nMr. Chairman, I did not hear that\npart, what the Chair read about the\ncriminal penalties that she inserts in\nthe law, and my point that that should\ngo to the Committee on the Judiciary,\nthat it is certainly beyond the scope of\nour bill.\nI must have missed that. How did\nthe Chair rule on that, sir?\nTHECHAIRMAN : The Chair thinks\nthat the bill, as presented and amend-\ned contains provisions within several\ncommittee jurisdictions. Therefore the\namendment need not meet a strict ju-\nrisdictional test. Accordingly, the Chair\nrules that the point of order is over-\nruled.\nParliamentarian's Note: Mr.\nHyde's point of order anticipated\ninclusion in the Boxer amendment\nof a provision repealing the so-\ncalled ``Hughes-Ryan'' amendment\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01585 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8966DESCHLER -BROWN PRECEDENTS Ch. 28 §35\n16.84 C ONG.

The offered\namendment did not include that\nproposed repeal but did include\nthe criminal provision cited in the\npoint of order. As indicated in the\nChair's follow-up response, it was\nonly because of the diverse nature\nof the bill that the criminal provi-\nsion was held germane. (Compare\nApr. 7, 1960, rulings in sections\n4.39 and 4.40, supra, cited by Mr.\nHyde.) In those cases the points of\norder were sustained that the\ncriminal sanction provisions con-\ntained in the amendments at-\ntempted to attain a result by a\nmethod unrelated to the narrow\npurpose of the bill.

RONCALIO : Mr. Chairman, I can-\nnot imagine how a point of order could\nbe reserved on the amendment at this\npoint.\nThe precise objections to the last\namendment(18)were stricken from this\namendment, and this amendment is\nleft with a citation of only one statute,\nand that is the Endangered Species\nAct, which is precisely the statute be-\nfore us at this time. I cannot imagine\nan attack on the germaneness provi-\nsion at this point.\nI have stricken from my first amend-\nment all reference to the Army Corps\nof Engineers, all reference to the Na-\ntional Environmental Policy Act of\n1969, and all reference to the Federal\nWater Pollution Control Act. There is\nonly one act cited in the amendment,\nand that is precisely the one before\nus....\nMR. [J OHN J.] C AVANAUGH [of Ne-\nbraska]: Mr. Chairman, I make a point\nof order against the amendment on the\nbasis that the amendment is not ger-\nmane to the bill. The differences be-\ntween this amendment and the amend-\nment previously offered are that the\ngentleman from Wyoming has stricken\nspecific references in the first portionof his amendment to the National En-\nvironmental Policy Act, the Federal\nWater Pollution Control Act, and the\nRural Electrification Act, but the gen-\ntleman's amendment has not stricken\nnew responsibilities imposed upon the\nRural Electrification Administration,\nthe Army Corps of Engineers, the Fish\nand Wildlife Service, and the Secretary\nof the Interior.\nThe amendment would continue to\nrequire biological opinion by the Fish\nand Wildlife Service, and require addi-\ntional duties of responsible officers of\nthe REA, the Corps of Engineers; to re-\nquire modifications of the project.\nIn addition, it requires the Secretary\nof the Interior to consult with the ap-\npropriate affected states, which would\nalso be a new obligation not envisioned\nin the act imposed upon agencies of\nGovernment. In addition to that, the\namendment is not germane to the sec-\ntion. It appears as a new section fol-\nlowing section 32, a section dealing\nwith certain antique articles.\nSo, I would renew my point of order\nas to germaneness both to the bill and\nto the section.\nTHECHAIRMAN :(19)The Chair is pre-\npared to rule.\nActually, the amendment adds a new\nsection, let the Chair say to the gen-\ntleman from Nebraska, which in the\nopinion of the Chair would need only\nbe germane to the bill as a whole.\nHowever, the earlier matter cited by\nthe gentleman from Nebraska in his\npoint of order dealing with the ex-\npanded authority and responsibilities\nand obligations of the Rural Elec-\ntrification Administration and Army\nVerDate 18-JUN-99 14:36 Sep 22, 1999 Jkt 010199 PO 00000 Frm 01589 Fmt 8875 Sfmt 8875 E:\\RENEE\\52093C28.TXT txed02 PsN: txed02 8970DESCHLER -BROWN PRECEDENTS Ch. 28 §35\n20.See § 36.2, infra.\n1.See § 42.43, infra.\n2.Id.\n3.See § 36.3, infra.\n4.See 5 Hinds' Precedents § 5824.5.See § 41.6, infra.\n6.H.J.

WHITE, ) \n ) \n M o v a n t , ) vs. ) 1:08-cv-107-WTL-MJD \n ) \nUNITED STATES OF AMERICA. ) \n \n \n \n \n \n \nEntry Discussing Motion to Reconsider \n \nThis cause is before the court on the movant ’s motion to reconsider. Given the timing \nof the motion to reconsider relative to th e entry of final judgment on September 27, \n2012, and given the arguments set forth in su ch motion, the motion is treated as a \nmotion pursuant to Rule 59(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure . See Borrero v. \nCity of Chicago, 456 F.3d 698, 701-02 (7th Cir. 20 06) (explaining that whether a \nmotion filed within the time frame contempl ated by Rule 59(e) should be analyzed \nunder Rule 59(e) or Rule 60(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure depends on the \nsubstance of the motion, not on the timing or label affixed to it). \n \n The purpose of a motion to alter or amend judgment under Rule 59(e) is to \nhave the court reconsider matters \"properly encompassed in a decision on the \nmerits.\" Osterneck v. Ernst and Whinney, 489 U.S. 169, 174 (1988). Rule 59(e) \n\"authorizes relief when a moving party 'clear ly establish[es] either a manifest error \nof law or fact' or 'present[s ] newly discovered evidence.'\" Souter v. International \nUnion , 993 F.2d 595, 599 (7th Cir. 1993) (quoting Federal Deposit Ins. Corp. v. Meyer, \n781 F.2d 1260, 1268 (7th Cir. 1986)). \n \n The movant argues that the court failed to address two arguments in his \nmotion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255: that his counsel was ineffective for failing to \nobject to the parole search of his reside nce and that the court did not interpret the \n“anti-preemption provision” of the Federal Gun Control Act, 18 U.S.C. ' 927. A \ncondition of White's probation allowed una nnounced searches of his living quarters \nby law enforcement and/or probation officers. United States v. White , 368 F.3d 911, \n913 (7th Cir. 2004), cert. granted, judgment vacated, 543 U.S. 1105 (2005). \n \n While the court did not specifically address this provision of the law, the court \ndid address the Federal Gun Control Act and found that Indiana’s gun licensing laws \ndid not affect enforcement of this law. See United States v. Skoien , 614 F.3d 638 (7th \nCir. 2010)( en banc )(federal firearms proh ibitions in section 922( g) are constitutional, \neven when as applied to person s convicted of misdemeanors). \n \n The court’s consideration of the § 2255 action was plenary. There was no \nmeritorious claim asserted and the court finds none suggested by the motion to \nreconsider. There was in this case no manife st error of law or fact. The court did not \nmisapprehend White’s claims, nor did it misapply the law to those claims. Accordingly, the post-judgment motion to reconsider, treated as a motion to alter or \namend judgment [71], is denied. \n \nIT IS SO ORDERED. \n \n \n \n \nD a t e : \n \nDistribution: \n \nGerald A.

Blumenauer Statement on President Obama’s Afghanistan Speech \nWednesday, 02 December 2009 04:41\nWashington, D.C. – Congressman Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore) issued the following statement in\nresponse to President Obama’s remarks on the Administration strategy in Afghanistan and\nPakistan:  \n \n I appreciate President Obama and his administration taking the necessary time to reevaluate\nAmerica’s strategy in Afghanistan. It is imperative to think through the implications of sending\nmore troops abroad, to engage our allies around the globe, and establish benchmarks as well\nas an exit strategy. Had this happened before the United States invaded Iraq, the world would\nbe a different place today.\n \n I agree with everything President Obama has done to assess our role in Afghanistan, but I am\nunable to embrace his conclusion. It is unclear that 30,000 more troops will resolve the conflict,\nor at least allow us to leave in eighteen months. It may actually weaken our ability to deal with\nlarger security and economic threats at home and abroad - from terrorist recruiting and nuclear\nweapons to unemployment and our budget deficit.\n \n The President argued that it will be more costly to muddle through in Afghanistan. Our\nexperience to date in this troubled country and other flash points around the world does not\nsuggest 30,000 more troops is going to make his other initiatives more effective.\n \n 1 / 1" }

Ord cemetery earlier this year, I set about finding a way to make it\nhappen. I've been working with the VA for almost a decade to create a Ft. Ord cemetery and\nfinally I can see light at the end of the tunnel,\" said Farr.\n \nIn order to clear the path for a State Veterans Cemetery, Farr wrote directing language into the\nFY07 Military Quality of Life and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Bill which passed the House\nAppropriations Committee this week. Farr's language:\n \n - creates a pilot program so the VA and Fort Ord Reuse Authority (FORA) can develop a\nunique public-private partnership to fund a state veterans cemetery at Fort Ord; and \n - puts California at the top of the list for State Veterans Cemetery Grant approval once an \napplication is made. \n \n\"I'm well aware of the state's financial constraints - that's why I've cleared the path for the state\nto get federal money to cover 100% of construction costs and for the creation of a public-private\npartnership that will relieve the state of all budgetary obligations. Together, the Feds, the state\nand the local community can make this happen,\" said Farr.\n \nThis afternoon, Farr will be discussing this public-private partnership at the Annual FORA\nLegislative meeting - 3 p.m. at the FORA Conference Facility/Bridge Center.\n \nLegislative language authored by Rep. Farr and approved by the House Appropriations\nCommittee on May 10, 2006:\n \nUnder \"Fort Ord Cemetery\":\n\"The Committee notes the success of the military housing RCI as a public/private partnership.\nThe Committee encourages the Department of Veterans Affairs to work with the Fort Ord Reuse\nAuthority in Monterey, California to develop a pilot program to demonstrate the cost\neffectiveness of using public/private partnerships in establishing a state veterans cemetery at\nFort Ord.\"\n \n 1 / 2 May 12, 2006- Farr Secures Vets Cemetery Authority\nUnder \"Grants for Construction of State Veterans Cemeteries\":\n\"The Committee encourages the Department to work with States for maximum usage of this\ngrant program. Given that over ten percent of the nation's veterans reside in California, the\nCommittee encourages the Department to work with the state of California as it applies for a\ngrant.\"\n 2 / 2" }

The Committee on Education and the Workforce will come to order. \n We're meeting today to hear testimony on “Back to Work: the Administration's Plan for \nEconomic Recovery and the Workforce Investment Act.” Under Committee rule 12(b), opening statements are limited to the Chairman or Ranking Minority Member of the Committee. Therefore, if other Members have statements, they will be included in the hearing record. \n And with that, I ask unanimous consent for the hearing record to remain open for 14 days to \nallow Members' statements and other extraneous material referenced during the hearing to be submitted for the official record. Without objection, so ordered. \nOPENING STATEMENT OF CHAIRMAN JOHN BOEHNER, COMMITTEE \nON EDUCATION AND THE WORKFORCE \n Let me start this morning by welcoming our distinguished guest today, the Secretary of \nLabor, Elaine Chao, and I also would like to welcome my counterpart, the gentleman from California, Mr. Miller, and the other Members of our Committee. \n During his State of the Union address, President Bush laid out a comprehensive plan to \nspeed our economic recovery and promote long-term job growth and investment. His plan also provides specific assistance, in the form of personal re-employment accounts, to help unemployed Americans who are struggling to return to work. \n At a time when the economy is struggling but also improving, it is important that we focus \non giving the unemployed more flexibility and choices in their employment search. And even though the most recent Labor Department statistics reveal that unemployment is down to 5.7 percent this month, we still need to examine new ways to help working families across this country during the time when they need it most. \n On January 29th, Congressmen Jon Porter, Buck McKeon, Todd Tiahrt, and others \nintroduced the Back to Work Incentive Act, which reflects the President's plan to create these accounts, and aid unemployed workers who need the most help in getting back to work. I am pleased to be a co-sponsor of this important measure. \n The Back to Work Incentive Act represents a new and innovative approach to helping the \nunemployed get back on their feet. As President Bush has said, one worker out of work is one too many, and his plan will help working families in times when they need it most. \n Now, workers can use the Back to Work accounts for a variety of services to help them find \na good job, including job training, child care, transportation, housing assistance, and other expenses in helping find a new job. Recipients will be able to keep the balance of their $3,000 back to work 3\naccount as a cash re-employment bonus if they become re-employed within 13 weeks, creating an \nimportant incentive to return to work quickly. The more quickly a job is obtained, the larger the re-employment bonus will be. \nStates such as Iowa, Pennsylvania, and Washington have experimented with personal re-\nemployment accounts, and the results have been very positive. \n One of the exciting aspects of the new Back to Work accounts is that they empower \nindividual recipients to make choices appropriate for their own circumstances. Recipients will be able to create re-employment plans that help them navigate all the options available -- such as career counseling or training for a new profession in which they can be employed. By providing choice and flexibility, we can get people back into a steady, good-paying job as quickly as possible. \nThis new benefit supplements and enhances the services that are already available for those \nwho are most likely to face obstacles in finding and keeping new employment. These Back to Work accounts will not only provide the unemployed with another important benefit in helping them find a new job, but will be efficiently administered through the easily accessible One Stop Career Center system, established through the Federal Workforce Investment Act (WIA). \n The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) and the one-stop delivery system it created represent \nthe nation's primary investment in workforce development. WIA assistance is vital to helping workers find new or better jobs in this time of economic recovery. Through the one-stop delivery system, job seekers have access to labor market information, job counseling, and job training to help them get back on their feet. In addition, they have access to numerous other federal programs that provide services to job seekers. These Back to Work accounts will be an important new benefit that will be offered seamlessly and efficiently through the WIA delivery system. \n The 21st Century Competitiveness Subcommittee, chaired by Congressman Buck McKeon, \nwill lead this Committee's efforts to reauthori ze the Workforce Investment Act this year, and will \nfocus on improving the system to help achieve the original vision of the law when it was enacted in 1998, which was to create a seamless workforce development system for workers and employers. \n While we expect to move the Back to Work Incentive Act as a stand-alone bill, we also \nexpect to address the President's proposal as part of our efforts to reauthorize WIA. Particularly during a sluggish economy, WIA programs can play a role in helping Americans get back to work, or retain for new jobs. \n I look forward to working with President Bush, Subcommittee Chairman McKeon, \nCongressman Porter, Secretary Chao, and my friends on the Democrat side of the aisle to move this proposal quickly and make this innovative plan a reality for working families who need the help the most, and certainly they need it quickly. \n I now yield to my friend and Ranking Member of the Committee, George Miller. 4\nWRITTEN OPENING STATEMENT OF CHAIRMAN JOHN BOEHNER, \nCOMMITTEE ON EDUCATION AND THE WORKFORCE – SEE APPENDIX A \nOPENING STATEMENT OF RANKING MEMBER GEORGE MILLER, \nCOMMITTEE ON EDUCATION AND THE WORKFORCE \nThank you, Mr. Chairman. Madame Secretary, welcome back to the Committee. We look \nforward to hearing your comments today regarding the President's proposal for personal re-\nemployment accounts. The question we will have, obviously, is whether or not this proposal meets \nthe demands that are being placed on unemployed workers today in our current economy. \n This proposal comes at a time when working families are facing a weak economy, wracked \nby job insecurity, unemployment, corporate malfeasance, and battered retirement savings. By almost any measure you can think of, for wages, job security, retirement security, middle-class Americans are worse off today than they were two years ago, or at any time in the past decade. \n It's not a question of whether we have one unemployed worker in this country, which would \nbe too many for the President; we have 8 million unemployed workers in this country. And minority and women workers have been particularly hard hit. More than 1 million workers, 1 million individuals, many heads of households, have exhausted their federal unemployment benefits and cannot find work. The number of workers unemployed for more than 15 weeks has increased almost 140 percent in the two years since you took office. \n The paycheck for America's most vulnerable workers, those making the minimum wage, \nwill soon be at its lowest value since the Eisenhower administration a half a century ago. And yet we have seen absolutely no leadership from the majority in this Congress or from the Bush Administration to provide these men and women with a decent increase in their earnings. \n For some reason, this Administration and the Republican Congress can see fit to give $2 \ntrillion in tax breaks to the wealthiest Americans during this recession, and during a time of impending war, but we can't give 75 cents an hour to the poorest workers in this nation this year. \n The precipitous drop in the stock market over the past two years has cost employees over \n$175 billion in 401(k) investments and assets. Thousands of these employees who lost hundreds of millions of dollars of irreplaceable life savings and retirement benefits due to corporate fraud and abuse, are still awaiting help from the Department of Labor to recoup their losses more than a year later. \n Corporate pension plans' under-funding have reached a staggering level of $300 billion. \nThis requires that the Department of Labor immediately address the serious problem that threatens the retirement security of tens of millions of Americans. The public Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, the agency that 44 million Americans rely on to pay their pensions if their companies are bankrupt, has record deficits close to $10 billion when accounting for future liabilities, and huge corporations are lining up to dump their pension burdens into this corporation every month as part of their bankruptcy bail-out plans. Most recently we see Bethlehem National, and the question 5\nis how soon will the airlines off-load their employees' pensions into the Pension Benefit Guaranty \nCorporation? This threat to the employees' pensions doe s not even take into c onsideration the threat \nto their health insurance benefits that are also under attack. \n Not only is the federal treasury facing $300 billion in red ink next year and $2 trillion over \nthe next decade as a result of the administration's irresponsible fiscal policies, but now state and local governments are confronting $85 billion in deficits, forcing cuts in health care, child care, education, and training, and tomorrow this Congress will add $11 billion to the burden of those states with the passage of the Welfare Reform Bill. \n The American public is starting to understand that this Administration and this Congress \nhave turned a deaf ear to the worsening economic security of millions of Americans worried about their jobs, their families, and their retirement security. There is no additional help for more than 1 million workers who have exhausted their federal unemployment benefits and can't find work. There is no support for a modest increase in the minimum wage. There is vigorous opposition to the rights of working people to join unions, as demonstrated in the cases of the Department of Homeland Security and the baggage handlers and others at our airports. \n Failures by the Department of Labor over the last 15 months, since the beginning of the \ninvestigation of Enron, to try and recover hundreds of millions of dollars in retirement investments lost due to corporate fraud and abuse, the promotion of unsound and unfair pension changes, like the cash balance conversions that could impoverish millions of middle-aged and older employees, and the investment advice proposal that former SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt says violates the one bedrock principle of investing. \n Given this record, I am at a loss to see how the Bush Administration's proposal for re-\nemployment accounts speaks to the deep underlying problems facing working men and women in \nthis dreadful economy. How will these accounts help the 1 million workers who have already exhausted their federal extended benefits? How will they help workers find jobs in communities where no work is available? And how will this Department respond to the report by the previous Bush Administration that concluded that these accounts do very little for workers who are living in areas of moderate or high unemployment, of whic h there are now millions of Americans that share \nthat burden. \n I am eager to hear your testimony today, Madame Secretary, but I must say that I am very \nconcerned about this Administration's lack of attention to the welfare and the well-being of millions of middle-class working families who still see their livelihoods and their retirements threatened by this economy and by the inability of this Administration to respond to their needs. Simply cutting off people's benefits and not giving them additional work is not going to provide the kind of economic recovery that this nation needs and this nation's families want so dearly. Thank you very much.\nChairman Boehner . Before I introduce the Secretary, let me take a moment to welcome the \nnewest member of our Committee, Phil Gingrey, of Georgia. 6\nDr. Gingrey was elected to our Committee last night. He is an OB/GYN, a former Marietta \nschool board member, and most recently served in the Georgia State Senate from 1998 until he was elected to Congress this November. He will serve on the Subcommittee on Select Education and the Subcommittee on 21st Century Competitiveness. I want to welcome Dr. Gingrey to the Committee. \n It's now my pleasure to introduce the Secretary of Labor, Elaine Chao. Secretary Chao is \nthe nation's 24th Secretary of Labor, and is a champion of the nation's contemporary workforce. She has worked to focus the Labor Department on the modern realities of workers' lives. \n Prior to assuming the position of Secretary, she was a director of the Peace Corps, and later \nPresident and Chief Executive Officer of United Way of America. Secretary Chao's previous government experience includes Deputy Secretary at the U.S. Department of Transportation. \n In addition, her business experience includes positions at Bank of America, Capital Markets \nGroup, and Citicorp. And prior to her nomination as Secretary, she was a distinguished Fellow at the Heritage Foundation. Secretary Chao received her MBA from the Harvard Business School and her undergraduate degree in economics from Mount Holyoke College. \n Before the Secretary begins her testimony, I want to remind all the Members that we will \nimpose a five-minute limit on questions. The Secretary is only with us for a short time today, and she must excuse herself at noon. So I would ask Members to be mindful of the clock. \n And with that, Madame Secretary, welcome and you may begin. \nSTATEMENT OF ELAINE L. CHAO, SECRETARY OF LABOR, U.S. \nDEPARTMENT OF LABOR, WASHINGTON, D.C.\n Good morning, Mr. Chairman, Congressman Miller, and Members of the Committee. \nThank you for the opportunity to testify on the provisions of the President's economic growth and jobs package that will help workers with immediate benefits and long-term opportunities. \n I want to commend you and the Members of this Committee for your leadership in \nintroducing the Back to Work Incentive Act, H.R. 444, which would establish personal re-employment accounts for an estimated 1.2 million workers. \n I would also like to describe some of the innovative changes we proposed to the workforce \ninvestment system through reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998. I will summarize my statement, Mr. Chairman, but ask that my prepared statement be included for the record.\n Last month, President Bush announced a comprehensive growth and jobs package to \nstimulate spending, promote investment, create jobs, and deliver critical help to unemployed 7\nworkers. If enacted, his plan will help create 1.4 million jobs by the end of 2004. \n I think we all agree that current unemployment rates, while low by historical standards, are \nstill too high. Our goal is to preserve the hard-won gains the economy has made, to speed up growth and create more jobs in both the short term and the long term. \n One of the unique features of the President's economic recovery plan is its new approach to \naddressing current unemployment through personal re-employment accounts. These are worker-managed accounts of up to $3,000, and they can be used to purchase a variety of re-employment services, including training, counseling, childcare, and transportation. \n Re-employment accounts will empower individuals by giving them more flexibility, \npersonal choice, and control over their job search. These accounts also have a re-employment bonus. Workers who find a new job within 13 weeks will be able to keep the cash balance in their personal re-employment accounts to assist them in transitioning back to work. \n These personal re-employment accounts will be administered by the states through the local \nOne-Stop Career Centers. And the President's proposal would provide $3.6 billion in additional resources to the states to fund these personal re-employment accounts over two years so that there will be no duplicative infrastructure that will be needed. \n As we entered the 21st century, our nation's workforce faced three major challenges: \nglobalization, technological advances, and demographic changes. So we need long-term strategies, as well, to prepare workers for good-paying jobs in the labor market. \n This Committee has already recognized the importance of these challenges through its hard \nwork on the Workforce Investment Act of 1998. Our goal is to continue to develop the One-Stop \nCareer Center delivery system into a cohesive workforce investment system that responds quickly and effectively to the changing needs of our population and our economy. \n The Administration's proposal for the Workforce Investment Act reauthorization would be \nbased on five key principles. We want to one, strengthen the governing structure of the workforce investment system by streamlining the membership and mission of state and local workforce investment boards. Two, we want to support a more comprehensive operation with available services through the One-Stop Career Centers. Three, we want to improve adult services by consolidating adult dislocated workers and employment services funding streams into one network. This will increase customer accessibility, as well as state flexibility in responding to local economic conditions. Fourth, we want to better serve at-risk youths by targeting resources to out-of-school youths in both urban and rural areas. And fifth, we want to ensure greater accountability by focusing on the most important outcomes, and eliminating burdensome and duplicative requirements at the state and the local levels. All federal job-training programs will be measured by the same performance standards. \n The President's proposals recognize that investments in the workforce are a key part of \neconomic growth. I believe that these proposals are key to ensuring that our nation's workforce 8\nremains the most highly skilled and competitive in the world. I look forward to working with you, \nMr. Chairman, and this Committee as we move forward. \nSTATEMENT OF ELAINE L. CHAO, SECRETARY OF LABOR, U.S. \nDEPARTMENT OF LABOR, WASHINGTON, D.C. – SEE APPENDIX B \nChairman Boehner . Madame Secretary, thank you for your testimony, and thank you for your \nwillingness to come and speak with all of us today. \n Some are saying that the re-employment bonus that we're talking about in the Back to Work \naccounts encourages individuals to take the first available job, instead of waiting for the best job. In your testimony that you submitted, you refute this argument by citing evidence from pilot programs showing individuals generally found comparable jobs. Plus someone who chooses to take the job bonus funds obviously has that money and can use it for their own family needs. \n Is it true that for some individuals labor market attachment can help them advance, \nsuggesting that it's important to become re-employed quickly? \nSecretary Chao . We believe so. Now, let me just refer to the pilot programs that you mention. \nIndeed, our results from the pilot program show that they are helpful in getting people back to work. We had five pilot programs in four states, and they worked out very well. \n On the bonus issue, it's not as if a person can get a bonus right away. Basically, they will \nreceive 60 percent of the bonus upon getting a job, then 40 percent if they stay on the job for six \nmonths.\n We don't believe that workers would just take the first job that they find, and that's what the \nwhole beauty of the personal re-employment account is. It will give them more choice to select the kind of training that is currently not available within the One-Stop Career Centers. So there is a great deal of investment by the individual in the kind of training they want in order to get the job that they want. So we feel that the re-empl oyment account is actually an incentive to get better \ntraining.\nChairman Boehner . How would the states and the local One-Stops choose which employees \nwould be eligible for these Back to Work accounts? \nSecretary Chao . We want to help those who are most at-risk and who have been the harder to \nplace. There will be an ongoing effort with the states to come up with certain criteria that will target at-risk and hard-to-place workers, those who are about to exhaust their extended unemployment benefits, and also those who are working in industries that are obviously impacted by trade, or have a difficult time. \nChairman Boehner . We have heard from businesses that incumbent or current worker training is \ncritical for both lay-off aversion and for businesses to remain competitive. However, many small 9\nbusinesses do not have the capability to train their employees, or to retrain them. \n Will the Administration's WIA reauthorization proposal increase opportunities to provide \nincumbent worker training? \nSecretary Chao . We have a wonderful workforce investment system that the American taxpayers \nhave invested approximately $12 billion a year in. It offers counseling, job placement services, skills assessment, resume writing, and workshops. For workers who are currently employed and are thinking about other opportunities, these services are available to them, as well. And for workers who are currently out of work, or who may have exhausted their unemployment insurance benefits, they too can avail themselves of core services at these One-Stop Career Centers. \nChairman Boehner . Consolidating the adult dislocated workers and the unemployment services \nfunds could simplify what is now a complicated administrative structure and allow more flexibility to address local circumstances. How do you envision this combined funding system? How do you envision that this will improve services to workers and to businesses? \nSecretary Chao . The combined funding is a plus-plus for the state and local entities. Our \ndepartment receives a lot of requests for waivers because one stream of funding has expired and the needs still exist. That is a timely process. \n We want the state and local entities to be able to have more discretion and flexibility with \nwhich to tap different funds to meet local conditions in order to help local people in their communities. This increased flexibility will enable them to do that. \nChairman Boehner . Mr. Miller? \nMr. Miller . Thank you. Madame Secretary, has the money for this program been identified yet in \nthe budget? \nSecretary Chao . Legislation has to be passed first, and then there will be appropriate monies and \nfunding that will go along with it. \nMr. Miller . So that would be when? \nSecretary Chao . Well, as soon as you are able to pass this bill. \nMr. Miller . Do you envision that in this budget year? \nSecretary Chao . This will be fully funded. Yes, we certainly hope so, because there are people \nwaiting for this money. \nMr. Miller . But the President's budget doesn't make any room for this. \nSecretary Chao . It will have to be some kind of a supplemental. 10\nMr. Miller . Okay. So we can envision seeing that $3.6 billion in a supplemental at some point? \nSecretary Chao . Yes, it will be discrete and above the $12 billion that we currently fund the \nworkforce investment system with. \nMr. Miller . As I understand this, we will use the existing profiling system in all states to try and \nidentify those people who are most likely to exhaust their benefits.\nSecretary Chao . Yes. \nMr. Miller . And then they would be selected. \nSecretary Chao . We will work in conjunction with the states on defining what these criteria will \nbe. But the principle and the goal are to target these harder-to-place workers, and to help them. \nMr. Miller . Now, it's my understanding that there is no real correlation between the so-called \nprofiling score and those individuals at risk for long-term unemployment. It really hasn't delivered a high level of reliability in terms of the people that it has identified. What actually happens to those individuals, and certainly not in high unemployment areas? Several evaluations have been done and it's not a one-to-one correlation. \nSecretary Chao . We have a very good idea through the workforce investment system. \nMr. Miller . But that's not what the evaluations say. \nSecretary Chao . Well, the evaluations will be looking at workers who are about to exhaust their \nunemployment insurance benefits. And again, we need to flesh this out more in conjunction with \nthe states. It would be looking at workers who are about to exhaust their extended unemployment insurance benefits, because there have been two extensions of unemployment insurance benefits already. \nMr. Miller . I don't understand then. When is the worker selected and identified to take advantage \nof this program? They come in, they have lost their job, and they file for unemployment. \nSecretary Chao . Right. \nMr. Miller . Are they identified at that stage? \nSecretary Chao . No, this will be separate although there is the capability to do that. The U.S. \nDepartment of Labor would work with the state and local boards. \nMr. Miller . No, I understand that, but do I have to be in high likelihood of exhausting my benefits? \nSecretary Chao . No, you can use the workforce investment system if you are. 11\nMr. Miller . I understand that. When does this $3,000 come into play? Is it the end of my term of \nunemployment? \nSecretary Chao . No, it comes right at the beginning. If you are qualified you will be notified. \nMr. Miller . Pre-screened, profiled? \nSecretary Chao . You will be notified. Then you come in and you can get the $3,000. \nMr. Miller . If I take the $3,000, and if I get a job, I can put the rest of the money into my account, \nand I can use that for whatever purposes I want, right? \nSecretary Chao . There will, of course, be accountability measurements. \nMr. Miller . Right, I understand, I understand. We will assume everybody here is honest for a \nminute. \n If I exhaust the $3,000, can I come back and take advantage of other unemployment \nprograms? \nSecretary Chao . If you exhaust the $3,000, you can come back and use core services, but not the \nintensive services. Core services that are available within the One-Stop Career Centers are for example; resume writing services, other workshops, or counseling. \nMr. Miller . So if the $3,000 doesn't work out then, I am precluded from the intensive training \nprograms. \nSecretary Chao . Yes, because the rationale there is that you would have bought other services \nelsewhere.\nMr. Miller . But if it doesn't work out, and I still don't have a job, and I'm trying to feed my family, \nthen I'm done. \nSecretary Chao . No, you can come back and use the workforce investment systems’ core services. \nThere are still core services available. You can use the counselors, workshops, resume-writing services, work with the computers, do all that. That is still available. \nMr. Miller . Alongside all the other people who still can't find work. \nSecretary Chao . It's interesting, but in this economy, 40 percent of workers find a new job within \nsix to seven weeks. Our economy is churning constantly. \nMr. Miller . Yes, except the number of people who are unemployed for longer periods of time \ncontinues to expand. 12\nSecretary Chao . And we're concerned about them, which is why we want to offer this re-\nemployment service. \nMr. Miller . Let me ask you this. Since the profiling really doesn't have that kind of correlation, or \nthat kind of reliability, why aren't you helping people who we already know have exhausted their benefits? \nSecretary Chao . People who have exhausted their current benefits have had two extensions so far, \nso they have had their normal unemployment insurance benefits of 26 weeks, an extension of 13 weeks, and an additional extension up to May. \nMr. Miller . Yes. \nSecretary Chao . So that's more than a year of unemployment insurance benefits. \nMr. Miller . So what's your theory, that that's enough for them? Excuse me; these people are \nwithout a job, Madame Secretary. It's not whether they have 26 weeks or 13 weeks of unemployment. \nSecretary Chao . What I'm saying is that we have a workforce investment system that they can \naccess. There is still help available. And in fact, these services of finding a new job are still there. They are available to everyone and anyone who wants to find a new job. \nMr. Miller . But let me just finish here, Mr. Chairman. As I understand the presentation of this \nprogram, this is a belief that this option, which sounds in many ways very positive, is best for those people who are most likely to exhaust their unemployment benefits, and we have a pool of one \nmillion people who have already exhausted their unemployment benefits. Why aren't we offering \nthis to those people who are desperately in need of what this program offers to try to get them back on their feet and able to provide for their families? \nSecretary Chao . Well, within one of the provisions of this bill, which you are about to consider, it \ndoes go back and pick up people who have exhausted their unemployment insurance within the last three months, prior to enactment. \nMr. Miller . I understand that. But if this bill becomes law in September, anybody who has \nexhausted their benefits before June is out of the pool? \nSecretary Chao . They can still access the $12 billion of workforce investment core services. \nMr. Miller . Yes, they have been doing that for 26 weeks, and they haven't found a job. I \nunderstand, you know. \nSecretary Chao . Well, it's 26 weeks, plus 13 weeks, plus another five months. \nMr. Miller . Most people are very diligent about trying to get back into the workforce. 13\nChairman Boehner . The gentleman's time has expired. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from \nTexas, Mr. Johnson. \nMr. Johnson . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Thank you, Secretary Chao. I would like you to \ncontinue to explain what you were just trying to explain when you were cut off; 26 weeks is not the end of the road. Would you like to comment on that more fully? \nSecretary Chao . The President had an economic package in 2002. It was called the Job Security \nProgram, and among its many provisions was an extension of an additional 13 weeks of unemployment insurance benefits. And on January 8th of this year, he asked for and received another extension to May of this year for unemployment insurance. So it's 26 weeks, plus 13 weeks, and then another segment from December 28th of 2002 to May of 2003. \nMr. Johnson . You got it. Nobody is left out in the cold. And in my visits with some of the local \nworkforce boards, in Texas at least, they're doing a great job. \n You state in your testimony that streamlined local boards would be able to focus more on \nstrategic planning and policy development activities. Could you expand on what the Department's vision is for local boards, and how that planning will improve the delivery of services? \nSecretary Chao . Yes, thank you. Our goal is to make these services easily accessible and usable \nby the client. And so we hope to work with the workforce investment boards at both the state and local levels so that there would be greater clar ification of the mission with the aim of streamlining \nthe governing structure so that the clients will find it easier to use the many services that are available in the system. \nMr. Johnson . And do you get good cooperation with the local authorities around the country? \nSecretary Chao . Some more so than others. But it's a great system, and it offers tremendous \nresources.\nMr. Johnson . No complaints from Texas, I hope. \nSecretary Chao . No. \nMr. Johnson . You suggest improving upon individual training accounts by making them more \nflexible and responsive to individual needs. Could you elaborate on the changes necessary to accomplish that goal? \nSecretary Chao . Right now, the workforce investment system offers an array of training programs \nthrough a list of pre-approved providers. It's kind of like an HMO. If you want training, you have to go to one of these pre-approved contractors for training. And if they do not offer a training program that you want, you have to settle for something less than what you had wanted. \n The whole goal of the personal re-employment accounts is to allow the individual to find \nthe training program that he or she wants. Because we find that a number of major entities in 14\nworkforce training, for example the community colleges, do not participate in the Workforce \nInvestment Act system because of overly burdensome requirements. For a whole host of reasons, the community colleges, and vocational education schools have opted out of the training system and therefore many training programs are not available. \n The personal re-employment accounts empower the individual, and give them a choice so \nthat if they find a course that they like, even if it's not from a pre-approved provider within the workforce investment system, they can go and purchase the training that they want with that $3,000 to get the job that they want. \nMr. Johnson . Yes, that's great. You have also proposed creating youth challenge grants that \nwould be used, I guess, to support activities in a non-school setting that lead to high academic achievement. \n Could you provide examples of such activities, and would the grants be available to address \nthe needs of in-school youth? \nSecretary Chao . Absolutely. We have a great deal of concern with giving young people hope and \ninspiration and a view for the future. And so these kinds of programs keep them on the right path, set them up with good counseling and people that they can consider mentors, and hopefully they will be on the path to getting better jobs and greater fulfillment. \nMr. Johnson . And become great Americans. \nSecretary Chao . Yes. \nMr. Johnson . Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. \nChairman Boehner . Before I introduce the gentleman from Michigan, let me take a moment to \ncongratulate our colleague from Texas, Sam Johnson, who, 30 years ago today, was released from prison camp in Vietnam. Sam served our country for 29 years in the Air Force, and it included some seven years as a prisoner of war. Thank you. \n[Applause.]\nMr. Johnson . Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and all of you. You know, we have the greatest nation in \nthe world, and I would go back and do it again tomorrow, if I needed to. Thanks again. \nChairman Boehner . Mr. Kildee you are recognized for five minutes. \nMr. Kildee . I yield to Ms. Sanchez. \nChairman Boehner . The gentlelady from California is recognized for five minutes. 15\nMs. Sanchez . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Good morning, Madame Secretary. Thank you for \ncoming over and talking to us, in particular, about a new concept with respect to these personal accounts. I have a question for you.\nMr. Miller was talking about the fact that we don't do a very good job of profiling who is \nreally going to be on unemployment longer, or out of a job longer than we thought, or maybe people that we thought were going to be out of a job get it real fast. Do you know what the statistics are on our ability to really guess ahead of time what the opportunities are for people who are unemployed? \nSecretary Chao . I don't have that information, but I can get it for you. \nMs. Sanchez . Okay. I would like to see that information, please. \nSecretary Chao . Basically in the past year alone, we have invested $71 billion in unemployment \ninsurance.\nMs. Sanchez . Yes. The reason I ask is because I have been here as we have been extending the \nunemployment benefits for families, including a very desperate situation many of my families \nfound themselves in on December 28th, a couple of days after Christmas, when the leadership of this House failed to get an agreement on passing a new extension. \n And so I was happy to see that we worked on that, and hopefully we will get another \nextension, because a lot of workers are out of work. And I think they are out of work not necessarily because they don't have the skills or training, but because we are not creating the jobs in this economy. \n In fact, I was over the other day at my One-Stop, and I ran into a gentleman who has been \nunemployed for a year. He used to have a manufacturing job. That factory moved; the production is now done in China. He told me he has exhausted his unemployment benefits, he is using the core benefits, but he has no extension of benefits, and he has no financial stability in his family, because he has not been able to find a job. \n Does this Administration plan on putting forward another extension if, in fact, we still have \nsuch high unemployment going on in our country in the next few months? \nSecretary Chao . I think it's important to note that while we all want to help people who are having \na hard time out of a job, the best thing for them is to help them find a job. \n And you are absolutely right, job creation is important. And that's why this President has \nfocused a great deal on economic issues and on job creation. That's why we had the economic job security program of 2002. \n The President has fought corporate fraud and abuse by asking for the passage of the \nCorporate Accountability Act. The President has also signed off on the Terrorism Assurance Act, 16\nwhich will create about 360,000 jobs by the Teamsters' own account. \n We have asked for passage of the energy bill, which will also provide for increased job \ncreation. And the President's economic growth package, as announced last month, will spark an environment through which new jobs can be created, and that includes helping small businesses, which is the engine of growth in our economy. \nMs. Sanchez . Madame Secretary, just because I only have a limited amount of time, with all due \nrespect, in 2001+ there were 1.7 million jobs lost in this economy. And just this past January, the month that we have just passed, we have had announcements from major employers that they plan to eliminate over 132,000 jobs. Just in this past month that's what we're hearing. So the economic stimulus package we know now is not working. \nBut aside from that, we've got people who are out of work. What you are proposing is that, \nahead of time, when people come to unemployment they're going to be profiled, and all of a sudden it will be decided if they are going to get unemployment and get the special account. \n Isn't it true that if we're profiling them to be the hardest to place, are you telling me that \n$3,000 is the maximum that we now spend on hard-to-place people, or people who have problems getting a job, or who need extra training, or who have language barrier skills? Is $3,000 the maximum we ever spent on somebody who is one of those profiled? \nSecretary Chao . No, for TAA, in fact, it's a little bit higher than that. \nMs. Sanchez . So it costs more than that? \nSecretary Chao . The $3,000 is on top of everything else that has been already invested in a \nworker.\nMs. Sanchez . What happens is some people get out earlier, they find a job faster, et cetera, and so \nyou use the mean. And therefore, the people who are the hardest to place are actually the ones who are using more than $3,000 worth. \n What you are doing to these people is saying ahead of time, “we don't think we are going to \nbe able to help you find a job as fast as the mean of the group, or even the forward piece of the bell curve.” And so what would you say about the fact that you're only allowing $3,000 for the people who are actually the hardest to place? \nSecretary Chao . This is $3,000 on top of all the other services that are available to these \nindividuals. So this is again, if I can emphasize, on top of all the services that are available. \n The other thing that is worthwhile to mention is that we want to get these people back to \nwork as quickly as possible, because the workplace changes. So the goal should be to get these people back to work, by giving them the training to get back to work. 17\n And going back to your economic issue, again, you're absolutely right. This nation lost 1.7 \nmillion jobs in 2001, and it was because of the attacks of September 11th. The stock market peaked in March of 2000. The manufacturing sector began to decline in August of 2000. \n When this Administration entered office, we saw three quarters of negative growth. We \nwere just coming out of it when the attacks of September 11th occurred, in which approximately 1.7 million jobs were lost. And the average unemployment rate in the last decade was 5.7 percent, which is the unemployment rate of the last month. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMr. DeMint? \nMr. DeMint . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. \nMadame Secretary. I want to thank you, and congratulate the Administration on looking at \nthis problem in a different way, by maintaining the safety net for unemployed workers, and recognizing that skill development, wealth creation, and well-directed incentives are what we need to develop our workforce and help workers in this country. I believe the plan creates more choices for workers in their training, as you have outlined, and more competition between the services, which, again, I think will provide better training for workers. \n As you see this program being implemented, have you thought through how we're going to \ntrack it at the federal level to determine the success of making sure folks aren't falling through the cracks? How we will determine, six months out, whether or not this new program is really working? \nSecretary Chao . We have. We have one of the best workforce investment systems in the world, \nand we will use the infrastructure of the One-Stop Career Centers to help us track, and also monitor success.\n Our success is defined very simply. Number one, we want to place more people in good-\npaying jobs. And number two; we hope that more will be able to get off unemployment insurance, because they no longer need it, and that they will be able to get new jobs. \nMr. DeMint . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I yield back. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you very much. \nMr. Case? \nMr. Case . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. \nMadame Secretary, I'm happy to hear of your alma mater, having spent a fair bit of time \nthere, although probably before your time there. 18\n I'm just trying to understand the math here. You have three figures basically, $3.6 billion \nproposed. You had a maximum of $3,000 intended to serve at least 1.2 million unemployed workers. The $3.6 billion, I think it says here, is in one year but intended to be spread over two years. Right? \nSecretary Chao . Right. \nMr. Case . Okay. And I assume that since the states are, as I understand it, under no restrictions \nwith the $3,000, they're going to max out, if they can. So the $3,000 is a given. Is that correct? The states can spend the $3,000? \nSecretary Chao . Yes, up to $3,000. \nMr. Case . Right. But why wouldn't they spend the $3,000? \nSecretary Chao . We would not imagine that they would not. \nMr. Case . Right, exactly. So is that how you got the math to get the states serving at least 1.2 \nmillion people? Because I think that's the math, 1.2 million X $3,000 = $3.6 billion. \nSecretary Chao . Right. \nMr. Case . Which came first, the $3.6 billion or the 1.2 million workers, or the $3,000? \nSecretary Chao . We were trying to find a number that would seem reasonable, and would offer \nsome impetus for people to look at this account in an attractive fashion. So it had to be a large \nenough number. \n And yet we also wanted it to be a responsible number, to be sufficient to respond to the \nneeds of the individual. So $3,000 is approximately the amount that is spent for workers who access the workforce investment system, on average. There will be those who will, of course, use less; there will be others who will use more. But that's about, on average, how that came out. \nMr. Case . So you started with the $3,000. \nSecretary Chao . Yes. \nMr. Case . So you say the accounts are targeted at those newly unemployed workers, eligible for at \nleast 20 weeks of UI. Do you estimate that figure at 1.2 million, or are there more than that amount that you're trying to serve? \nSecretary Chao . I'm less certain about that answer. I think that was a number that we thought \nwould be, again, a responsive number to try to respond to a more conservative estimate of the number of people who will be availing themselves of this funding. 19\nMr. Case . How many unemployed workers in our country right now? \nSecretary Chao . We have approximately 4 million. \nMr. Case . Four million? What would be the reason the President wouldn't propose this for all 4 \nmillion? \nSecretary Chao . I think for a number of reasons, primarily because all of them are currently able \nto access a $71 billion safety net program of unemployment insurance plus two extensions, plus the workforce investment system. So we, as a nation, invest about $71 billion in people who are out of work with unemployment insurance and with new training opportunities. \n These personal re-employment accounts are given to those we think would access this \nprogram. We don't think all of those who are unemployed would necessarily access this program, because some of them are short-term unemployed. As I mentioned, 40 percent of workers in a very dynamic economy find new employment within about 6 or 7 weeks and become re-employed. \n We had 52 million Americans last year, for example, who left their jobs either voluntarily \nor involuntarily. And we had 52 million Americans last year that found new jobs. So our economy is very vibrant, and it's churning all the time. The goal is to get people back to work at a job that they would like as quickly as possible, because otherwise, the workforce and the workplace just changes too rapidly. \nMr. Case . So you feel that the 2.8 million that you don't anticipate being covered by the proposal \nare not in need of this same attention, or there are other means to assist them. \nSecretary Chao . They will have other resources available to them. \nMr. Case . And what would happen for the people that become unemployed from this point \nforward, because we've got 4 million today. You’re anticipating that you are going to serve 1.2 million of them through this program and we anticipate, don't we, that other Americans will become unemployed over the next two years. \nSecretary Chao . Yes, but people will be going off the roles, as well. It's very dynamic. It's \nchanging; it's churning all the time. So there will be people going off, people coming on. And for people who qualify, this is a two-year program, they will have a year with which to use that money. \nMr. Case . Thank you, Madame Secretary. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMr. Osborne? \nMr. Osborne . Thank you for being here today Madame Secretary. 20\nI would just like to react briefly to a previous comment that the economic stimulus package \nwas not working. As you pointed out, we have had what some have called “the perfect storm” with 9/11, a downturn in the economy, Middle Eastern crisis, corporate scandals, and so on. According to Alan Greenspan, who I believe is reported to be somewhat unbiased and non-partisan, that had we not had the previous economic stimulus package, we would probably have a worse situation than we have today. \nSecretary Chao . Yes. \nMr. Osborne . I just thought I would like to comment on that, and I would like to commend you on \nthe job that you have done to this point under difficult circumstances. \n Also, I would like to mention that in the current proposed economic stimulus package that I \nbelieve the personal re-employment accounts are part of, we often hear it characterized as a tax break for the rich. These accounts, certainly, are not for the wealthy. This $3.6 billion goes directly to the states for people who most need it, and I think sometimes these types of arguments are overlooked in the whole process. \n I think this is a good idea. It certainly streamlines, as you have mentioned, the delivery \nservices through the states, there is no redundancy of delivery systems, and I think it provides a powerful incentive. \n I would like to digress briefly and just ask you a quick question. I am not totally familiar \nwith youth councils. I probably should be, but I am not, and I wondered if you could comment on what their function is, and how this relates to the overall package. \nSecretary Chao . Youth councils are a wonderful concept. When I was president of the United \nWay of America, I had worked very hard to elicit more cooperation and participation of young people in United Way activities. We wanted young people to participate. \n But under the Workforce Investment Act, which mandated the youth councils, it has not \nworked as well; they have been spotty. In some regions they have worked well, and in others they have not. \n So, as we go forward with the reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act, we would \nlike to look at the youth councils and see whether they should be mandatory. If a local community wants to have a youth council, they certainly should have one. But if in other communities there is not the same interest, should the Federal Government direct and dictate that these local communities have youth councils? I think that's a valuable discussion that we want to have. \nMr. Osborne . Thank you. Mr. Chairman, I yield back. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMr. Payne? 21\nMr. Payne . Thank you very much. \nMs. Secretary, it's good to see you. Certainly this is a new concept. I wish I had more of an \nopportunity to read it. It kind of came at us suddenly. But I wonder, there was some talk about profiling the recipients, and I wonder what goes into profiling an individual to assess them, and what type of assessment? \n And secondly, what kind of accountability system do we have to follow whether what is \nbeing prescribed is working? We know that currently there are actually 8-million unemployed. I think 4 million might have been mentioned, but the number is actually, from my statistics, about 8 million. \n As we look at the profile of the accountability, and it's a $3,000 one-shot, it's good to have \nnew money, but what about places where there is chronic unemployment, or the more difficult to place person, or an area that is really more economically devastated than another area; the level one shot, one amount, $3 million period per area. It seems that there is less emphasis on various regions of the country, and age groups of people, and problems that they may have. \n So I just wonder how do we deal with those who will have a more difficult time, or a region \nthat has a more difficult situation? \nSecretary Chao . Well, first of all, I hate to use the word “profiling,” but basically when new \nclaimants come and file for unemployment insurance, they are assigned a counselor. They come into a One-Stop Career Center, or they call, or they go to the website. It's a very welcoming environment. It is not intimidating. We work very hard to make sure that that's the case. \nThey come and with assistance they fill out a kind of a profile of what they do and how \nlong they have been out of work; we already have that information, but it's an update, as well. And our initial contact with the various experts in the unemployment insurance system indicate that this process works well, in terms of giving us a good idea as to who needs what services. \n So, there is an extensive process by which people are received into the unemployment \ninsurance and workforce investment system. And then based on where they're likely to live, where they are working, whether it's for a particular company that might be impacted by trade, or whatever, all of this is taken into account. \n The issue about harder to place, long-term unemployed is an issue that we are all concerned \nabout. But that's what the whole system of unemployment insurance benefits and the workforce investment system address as well. \n We will, of course, want to help with transitional assistance, but the larger issue is how do \nwe train them so that they can get back into the workforce, and then how do we make the economic conditions such that there will be new job creation. \n So I think we are in agreement. We want to help these hard-to-place individuals. And I \nhave confidence that the workforce investment system in which we have invested so much time 22\nand resources is up to the task of finding these individuals and helping them with their training and \njob opportunities. It will give them added flexibility, because right now, the One-Stop Career Centers may not offer training courses that are available to a long-term displaced person. But if they are able to purchase the training course that they want, which is not currently available in the one-stop career center, I believe that's a win-win for the individual, and for us who care about the person, as well. \nMr. Payne . Thank you very much. The accountability part is something that I am really concerned \nabout.\nSecretary Chao . We're concerned with accountability as well. I liked what Mr. Miller said, in that \nI think most people try to be honest, and we will go forward on that. But even so, if that is not the case, we do have the infrastructure. This is not a new program that is bereft of any infrastructure.We are distributing and deploying this new funding stream through the workforce investment system. So there are counselors, there are current and existing performance standards that can be tapped to watch over the disbursement and usage of funds, as well. \nMr. Payne . Thank you very much. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMr. Wilson? \nMr. Wilson . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. \nMadame Secretary, I want to thank you for being here today. It's a great honor to be with \nyou. I appreciate your public sector service and private sector service, particularly as President of \nUnited Way of America, and as a distinguished fellow with the Heritage Foundation. That means a lot to me, and I appreciate what you have done. \n I also want to give you a first-hand report. In my service in Congress, I have had the \nopportunity to visit the One-Stop Career Centers in Columbia, South Carolina, which is an urban area, and also in Hampton County, South Carolina, which is very rural and disadvantaged. And it's just extraordinary, the opportunities that it provides to citizens. The equipment is just top-notch; people can come in and prepare resumes, and they can find jobs in their communities. \n The directors have done a phenomenal job of recruiting career counselors. And they are \njust like cheerleaders. When the people come in, they are not victims. They are wonderfully treated like sports heroes, welcomed with enthusiasm, and given the respect they deserve. It has really worked in our state, particularly with welfare reform and has success in helping people get jobs and employment. \n In line with that, in your statement, you suggest that the mandatory One-Stop partners \nshould have a stronger role on the state boards to ensure their investment in and commitment to the integrated service delivery system. Could you please elaborate on how to provide the partner 23\nprograms with additional incentives to participate in the system? \nSecretary Chao . I think it's very important for the WIB boards to really encompass the full array \nof stakeholders within their community. And because we want these clients, dislocated workers, to come in and get new jobs, we have to envelope more participation of employers, many of whom are businesses. \n In the past, there may have been some hesitation in fully addressing relevant training \nopportunities. We want people to get relevant training, so they can get real live jobs. That entails understanding what employers and businesses want in their workforce skills requirements, and working with them to make sure that when we ask people to invest a year or two years of their time in new training opportunities, that they will be rewarded with the job that they want. So that means working with the employers more closely. \nMr. Wilson . Well, that's successfully helped people to have fulfilling lifestyles in our state, and I \nappreciate it. \n I have one final question. In your testimony, you state that the streamlined local boards \nwould be able to focus more on strategic planning, and policy development activities. Could you please expand on the Department's visions for the local boards, and how the strategic planning by local business-led boards will improve the delivery systems at the local level? \nSecretary Chao . Right now, the role of the state boards appears rather ambiguous. They are such \na wonderful resource, and there is more work that can be done. So we need to clarify and work with the local workforce investment boards, and the state workforce investment boards, so that they work together and we leverage all of our collective strengths to make sure that the person that \nwalks through the door in the One-Stop Career Center will get a job. \nMr. Wilson . Well, thank you for making a difference for the American worker. I yield the balance \nof my time. \nSecretary Chao . Thank you. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMs. Woolsey? \nMs. Woolsey . Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman, and thank you, Madame Secretary. I feel like \nthis is deja vu , because I remember the last time you were here. I believe the money we were \ntalking about was for health care for the unemployed, and it felt like we were spending the same money over and over and over and it was not going to be spread. \nSecretary Chao . That's not true. \nMs. Woolsey . Well, that's what I thought was happening. And I feel like the same thing is \nhappening. We're talking about $3.6 billion that will be spent or be a bonus, and then it will be 24\navailable for the people that come after. \n I mean, there is going to be a limit to this, and I think we have to be realistic that it's going \nto take more than $3.6 billion. I think we have to look at the fact that $3,000 seems like a lot of money. My profession was human resources training, counseling, interviewing, and the whole nine yards. Three thousand dollars will not cover an individual who is in an industry where there will be no rehiring, where the worker has to leave. \n For example, an engineer may decide, because there are no more jobs in that industry, to \nserve the community and, be better off for all of us, become an educator. Well, $3,000 isn't going to get that person there. If an autoworker needs to relocate, $3,000 is not going to relocate that family. And I just want to know if you really think $3,000 is going to go far, even though it's more than we have now, and it only starts with newly unemployed and we're leaving out those that are the real hard to employ, or else they would have jobs. \nSecretary Chao . I guess it's only in Washington that we look at $3.6 billion as chump change. I \nhad mentioned before that we have invested $71 billion in our unemployed dislocated workers, which also includes $12 billion that we have invested in the Workforce Investment Act. \n The recently passed Trade Adjustment Assistant Program adds another $17 billion in health \ncare. And for dislocated workers who are eligible for trade adjustment assistance, health care will be taken care of as well.\nMs. Woolsey . Well, Madame Secretary, if you could let me ask a question about chump change, a \n$2 billion tax break is for the wealthiest of the wealthy when we have all of these people that are unemployed. That is not chump change. \nSecretary Chao . Well, I wanted to disabuse the idea that somehow $3,000 is insufficient. It is on \ntop of the $71 billion that we already invest in people that we care about who are dislocated, as well as in the workforce investment system. So it's on top of what's already available, and on top of almost more than a year of benefits to those who are dislocated. \nMs. Woolsey . Well, let me ask you a question about speaking of “on top of.” Will the states be \nallowed to supplant their existing programs, or will this be supplementary? \nSecretary Chao . No, this will be on top of what the states receive. \nMs. Woolsey . And will we have it written, that they must use this as additional funding, and not \nuse it for what they were going to do already? \nSecretary Chao . I don't think that will be a problem. \nMs. Woolsey . Oh, it will be a problem. It must be clear. \nSecretary Chao . Well, this is additional funding for them, and we will work with the states. 25\nMs. Woolsey . Well, yes, it's additional. But they can then not do what they were going to do \nalready, and use that funding. \nSecretary Chao . Workforce Investment Act monies are already much decentralized. Basically, \nthey go to the states, and we will certainly work with them on that. \nMs. Woolsey . All right. Thank you very much. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMr. Porter, the author of the Personal Re-employment Accounts that we have before us. \nMr. Porter . Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thank you for the opportunity to be a part of this \nlegislation. To the Secretary, thank you for being here today. \n I come from one of the fastest-growing states, if not the fastest-growing state in the country, \nNevada. And after the 9/11 catastrophe, we experienced probably as large an impact on our workforce as anyone in the country. At one time we had close to 100,000 men, women and families out of work, so we are pleased to work with you on this legislation. \n Currently in Nevada, we have about 36,000 of our neighbors and friends that have \nexhausted their benefits, and of that about 19,000 will soon be losing their extended temporary benefits. This is a great start. It's a great start; it's a jump-start. \nIf I could, just for a moment, I’d like to put a real face on this situation. I know we talked a \nlot about numbers today, and we talked about billions, and we talked about policy, and it's obvious \nthat there are some opposed to this bill. But there is a young lady in Las Vegas that's a friend of \nmine that is a single mother with two children. She is currently unemployed, and she receives about $600 a month in unemployment benefits. So if we're to put a real face on this piece of legislation, this young woman now will have help with child and day care, so that she can get out and get a job. She will now have help with transportation, to make sure that she can get back to work.\n She wants to get back to work; she cannot survive on $600. It helps but it certainly is not \nenough. But this bill is a great jump-start for single moms, and moms and dads that are having challenges across the country. And yes, we could say it's not enough. Certainly we could always do more. But what a great start for this young woman in Las Vegas, Nevada, with two little kids that needs help, and needs it now. \n I expect of course, as a freshman, that there is going to be lots of discussion and lots of \ndebate. But I would encourage my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to think about this single mom in Las Vegas with two little kids that could use help today. I would encourage fast passage, because certainly it can be adjusted in the future. But I am excited about this for our communities and for our state. And thank you for being here and for your presentation. 26\nSecretary Chao . Mr. Chairman, thank you very much. I am really passionate about these Personal \nRe-employment Accounts. I think they are a good thing. They give people a lot of flexibility, a lot of choice. And we expand their array of choices. \n So I want to make the offer to Members on both sides of the aisle, if I have not been great at \nexplaining this, I apologize. I hope that if any of you want to learn more about it, I will be more than glad to have my staff come over and talk with you and assuage some of the concerns that people may have. It's a wonderful program. It will give people a great deal more choice and flexibility. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMr. Kildee? \nMr. Kildee . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Will this be new money, or will it be money that will be \nreprogrammed? \nSecretary Chao . No, it will be new money. \nMr. Kildee . It will be new money. \nSecretary Chao . Yes. \nMr. Kildee . Well, if we're going to do this, I want to help you, and help the President to get that \nnew money. I will start off by helping get that new money by voting against his tax cut, so we will have some flexibility on that. Because if we give away another $650 billion, it's going to be very \ndifficult to find new money, there is no question. \nSecretary Chao . Well, if it were not for the tax cut, I think the recession would have been even \nworse.\nMr. Kildee . Okay. Well, we will see. But I will give him about $650 billion that he can find this \n$3.6 billion out of. I voted against the last tax cut, and I feel morally comfortable in that. \n Why is there no unemployment insurance extension in the Administration's budget? Secretary Chao . Unemployment insurance benefits have already been extended twice. The first \nextension was for 13 weeks, the second extension occurred on January 8th of this year, and it will last through May. So there are two extensions on top of the normal 26 weeks of unemployment insurance.\n The issue is not whether we want to extend unemployment insurance. We all want to help \npeople with transitional assistance. But the issu e is how do we get them back to work, because \npeople want to go back to work, and it's much better for them to receive a paycheck rather than an unemployment check. That's why we want to talk about the Workforce Investment Act, and find 27\nways to get people the training that they need to get the job that they want. \nMr. Kildee . Well, I am very much impressed with the Workforce Investment Act; we have a very \ngood One-Stop Center in Flint, and it works very, very well. I just visited it last week, again. \n But under the President's father, we did four extensions of unemployment. And the \nextension that we had in January did not provide any additional weeks of benefits to more than one million workers who had run out of benefits and were still unemployed. Those people are hanging out there still. And it seems to me that we should have some responsibility, if not concern, for those people. \nSecretary Chao . Well, we do. One concern is we want to get them back to work. I think we all \nagree on that. \nMr. Kildee . Yes. \nSecretary Chao . So the issue is not so much how many more extensions we can give, but how do \nwe get these people back to work. \n Secondly, we have this wonderful $12 billion workforce investment system, which is \navailable for people's use, and we want to encourage them to go into the One-Stop Career Centers, which are re-employment centers, so that they can have other opportunities to get training, or to find new jobs. \nMr. Kildee . You know, I get the most questions about when we’re going to extend unemployment \ncompensation, particularly for those more than 1 million who had run out in January and were not \nreinstated with that extension. When I go out to Genesee Valley Mall, which is the biggest mall in \nmy district, the entrepreneurs and managers keep asking, “When are you going to get this extension?” They were asking about it before January, now they're asking about it for those who did not get the extension. Because they know that the unemployment check, in itself, is a stimulus to the economy. If the workers of Flint don't have money, the mall can't sell. So that, in itself, is a great stimulus to the economy. \n I like the idea of job training, and WIA does a good job. I like the idea of counseling and \nthese various things, but in Flint, Michigan, we have almost completed the process of tearing down the Buick plant that my dad went to work for in 1916. He retired in 1950. \n Many of the people who are laid off in Flint are skilled workers. You have millwrights, you \nhave electricians, machine repair people. These are very skilled people. I was talking to an electrician the other day, and he is a very skilled electrician. \n So you ask yourself what type of job training do you provide for these people who have \ngone through apprenticeship programs, and they are still laid off? And these are the type of people, in many parts of the country, that are laid off. How will the job training particularly help them? They might get, I don't want to have to use McDonald's the entire time, some lesser-skilled 28\njob. How will it help them? \nSecretary Chao . Well, this is a tough question. And it's a larger demographic and societal issue, \nbecause it basically speaks to the fact that our workforce and our workplace are changing. We are in a globalized economy. As much as we would want to hold on to a majority of these jobs, we may not be able to. Our economy has transformed from a manufacturing into a service industry into an information-based industry. \n So this is of great concern. That's why we do want to place more emphasis on training. We \nalso have to foster an environment in which job creation will occur, and that's why the President's economic growth package for helping small businesses could be one solution. All of these factors need to work together. \nMr. Kildee . Thank you, Madame Secretary. Thank you very much. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \nMrs. Musgrave, no questions? Mr. Van Hollen. \nMr. Van Hollen . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Madame Secretary, as a new Member, I appreciate \nyour being here. It's good to be here. \n I think we would all agree that the best way to address the job shortage in this country is to \nget the economy moving again. We have been talking a lot today as if the issue is a job-retraining \nproblem, but in fact, the current problem is largely the gap between the lack of demand for jobs, \nand the many people who are unemployed. I mean, isn't that right? \nSecretary Chao . I think retraining is a large part of that, because there is a skills gap in our \ncountry. And clearly, job creation is important. \nMr. Van Hollen . Right. Maybe you could update these figures for me. I understand that in \nNovember 2002, the Department of Labor statistics showed that there were 2.8 million job openings in the United States. In other words, 2.8 million employers were looking for 2.8 million employees. But at the same time, you had about 8 million people looking for work. Are those figures still approximately true today? \nSecretary Chao . Not exactly. \nMr. Van Hollen . Can you give the figures? \nSecretary Chao . I will give you the right figures. Basically, our economy is churning all the time. \nSo any number taken in its static version is not indicative. Fifty two million Americans left their jobs last year, either voluntarily or involuntarily, and 52 million Americans found new jobs. 29\n There is constant churning going on, and there is a skills gap, because there are employers \ntoday who are looking for workers, and they cannot find the workers with the requisite skills. So it's both parts, but I do agree with you, job creation is important. And that's why the President's economic growth program has gone into small businesses, and we have the Terrorism Insurance Bill.\nMr. Van Hollen . Right. What is the gap today? Do you have the figures for what the gap is today \nbetween the number of employers with jobs to fill, and how many people are looking for jobs? \nSecretary Chao . I can get that for you. You might think it's easy to get, but it's not because, our \neconomy is so vibrant. It's so dynamic; it's churning all the time. \nMr. Van Hollen . Right. \nSecretary Chao . But I will certainly try to get those figures. \nMr. Van Hollen . With respect to the economic growth plan that the President has put forward, one \nof my colleagues from the other side of the aisle mentioned that Alan Greenspan was considered a non-partisan, neutral party. Could you respond to his comments yesterday, which indicated I think to most people, that he did not think that the President's economic plan would, in fact, spur growth in the short term, and in fact, also concluded that it would drive up interest rates in the long term? Could you respond to that? \nSecretary Chao . Yes.\nMr. Van Hollen . Do you agree with Alan Greenspan? \nSecretary Chao . I don't know what he said yesterday. I'm not aware of what he said. But he has \nsaid things in the past about the overall exuberance of the stock market, which led to the over-capacity that faces our economy now. And business investment is slow, because of over-capacity. \nMr. Van Hollen . Right. \nSecretary Chao . And that was obviously a result of the over-indulgence of the stock market in the \nlast decade. \nMr. Van Hollen . Right. But do you agree with him that the large deficits in the out years would \nresult in increases in interest rates? \nSecretary Chao . I don't know what he said. \nMr. Van Hollen . Do you agree with that statement, that large increases in deficits will increase the \ninterest rates? \nSecretary Chao . No, there is another point of view on that, as you well know. 30\nMr. Van Hollen . Well, I was just interested in your personal point of view. \nSecretary Chao . Well, I don't think that's relevant. \nMr. Van Hollen . Okay. Can I ask you one local question, Secretary Chao? \nSecretary Chao . Yes, of course. \nMr. Van Hollen . This relates to the transit subsidy provided by the Federal Government. I think \neveryone in the audience knows that we face a severe congestion issue in this region. As someone who represents an area in suburban Maryland, I wondered if the Department of Labor had considered increasing the transit subsidy to the $100 a month level that is allowed by the Federal Government. \nSecretary Chao . We have. I'm glad you asked that question, because it's one that I have been \ntrying to put to certain employees of the Department of Labor. \n We, in fact, have increased the transit subsidy to everyone outside the one particular \nbargaining unit. And there seems to be the inability to come to any agreement with this very small bargaining unit. So we have given the transit subsidy to people outside the bargaining unit, and they have accepted. We have 17,500 employees, and the particular bargaining unit that we're talking about is less than 1,000 people. We're quite perplexed. \nMr. Van Hollen . Well, that's good to know. Is it $100 now? Have you gone to $100? \nSecretary Chao . I believe so, yes, but I can confirm that for you. \nMr. Van Hollen . Okay, thank you. \n Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Chairman Boehner . Thank you. Madame Secretary, I know you need to leave at 12:00. It looks \nto me like it's one minute to 12:00. \nMr. Andrews, can you ask questions in 30 seconds? \nMr. Andrews . I'm sure of it. \n Madame Secretary, welcome back. It's great to have you here. Secretary Chao . Thank you. \nMr. Andrews . I hope that you would convey to Senator McConnell our best wishes for his speedy \nrecovery. 31\nSecretary Chao . Thank you. \nMr. Andrews . I wanted to ask you about the funding available under this new idea, which is up to \n$3,000 per person. We have had some discussion this morning as to whether that is adequate. I think it probably isn't, in a lot of cases, but the point I want to get to is whether the $3,000 is really there.\nThis program allocates $3.6 billion for two fiscal years; that's the plan if it makes it into the \nbudget, which it hasn't yet. In the last two years, in 2001 and 2002, 7.3 million people exhausted their unemployment benefits. Now, if we had $3.6 billion for those 7.3 million people, each person would get a benefit of about $500, not $3,000. How much are people really going to get under this program? \nSecretary Chao . I'm sorry, I didn't answer this question in the past, and I think it does lead to some \nconfusion. Of the 8 million that are unemployed, from experience we only expect there to be about 50 percent who will access unemployment insurance. Not everyone does because, again, these numbers are very dynamic. So a person can be out of the workforce for a very short period of time. \nMr. Andrews . No, but the number I gave you are people who accessed unemployment benefits and \nexhausted their unemployment benefits. So these are people that were in the system. \nSecretary Chao . Okay, what was the question? I'm sorry. \nMr. Andrews . There are 7.3 million people who exhausted their benefits in the last two years. \nSecretary Chao . But this is not a stagnant pool. It's very dynamic. \nMr. Andrews . You think fewer people will exhaust their benefits in the next two years? \nSecretary Chao . We hope so, sure. \nMr. Andrews . Well, if it were half as many, you would have, if my math is right, $1,000 available \nper person, not $3,000. \nSecretary Chao . And the question is? \nMr. Andrews . My question is why should we conclude that there is $3,000 per person available \nwhen the numbers don't add up? $3.6 billion is wholly insufficient to cover the proposal that you're making. \nSecretary Chao . Well, it's $3.6 billion. \nMr. Andrews . Over two years, right? \nSecretary Chao . No, it's every year. 32\nMr. Andrews . Oh, every year. \nSecretary Chao . Yes, yes.\nMr. Andrews . Well, if it were $3.6 billion, it's $7.2 billion over two years. I think that would still \nonly offer $1,000 per person for people who exhausted their benefits. \nSecretary Chao . But not everybody will access it.\nMr. Andrews . But doesn't that mean that to get $3,000, two-thirds of the people who exhausted \ntheir benefits wouldn't get this program at all, right? \nSecretary Chao . Some of them may not access it; some of them will have other services that are \navailable to them. We expect that probably 1.2 million will access the program, and $3,000 is about average. \nMr. Andrews . I would not question for one moment the intention of the Secretary or the program, \nbut I think the Administration has its usual “loaves and fishes” problem here. It occurred when you came in and talked about unemployment benefit extensions and health benefits, and had insufficient dollars to cover the health benef its, which never really materialized, anyway, for \nanyone.\n And then it happened again in welfare reform, when the Administration was talking about \nchildcare money when there were too many recipients and not enough dollars. The Administration, with all due respect, has a penchant for spending the same money over and over and over again and making everyone the same promise. \n There is no way that even a majority of people who exhaust their unemployment benefits \nwould ever get anything close to a $3,000 allocation under this program. The money isn't there, unless I'm missing something. \nSecretary Chao . Mr. Andrews, with all due respect, I disagree. We already have, as I mentioned, \na $71 billion program to help dislocated workers. \nMr. Andrews . Which doesn’t include this, though? This is above and beyond that, right? \nSecretary Chao . You're right. And on top of that, we're adding $3.6 billion. \nMr. Andrews . Right. \nSecretary Chao . And on top of that, there is a TAA component that adds another $17 billion. \nMr. Andrews . I appreciate that. \nSecretary Chao . There is a wide array of services available. 33\nMr. Andrews . My concern is that my constituents, when they hear this proposal, are going to \nthink, “Great. I can get a $3,000 voucher where I can go out”, if we're allowed to use that word, “where I can go out and buy customized job training services, or get help with child care or transportation.” And the reality is the majority of them aren't. It's really a false premise. \nThe question I'm going to ask you and you can submit it for the record, what would it really \ncost to guarantee each person who exhausts his or her unemployment benefits a $3,000 voucher? What would that cost? And what's the difference between what you propose and what that number would be? \nSecretary Chao . I'm not particularly partial to assigning it any one title. But you do bring up an \nimportant point, and that is there are some training programs that are not available to the One-Stop Career Centers. And if a person wanted to access some new training programs in a community college, they can use that $3,000 and access the training program that they want to get the job that they want. \nI'm not quite sure I understand your question, but I will be more than glad to submit it for \nthe record, as requested. \n(NOTE: This item was not submitted prior to the official printing of the hearing transcript. \nHowever, the item will be maintained upon its submission and available for inspection in the Majority office of the Committee on Education and the Workforce.)\n Mr. Andrews . Very succinctly, my question is I don't know how you can do $8 billion worth of \ngood with $3.6 billion worth of money. \nSecretary Chao . It can be done because not everyone will access the funding, according to our \npast experience and historical records. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you very much. \nMr. Andrews . Well, I would again say that you have a “loaves and fishes” problem here. \nChairman Boehner . Those 30 seconds became 6 minutes, and I guess that's why we don't have an \nopportunity for everybody to ask questions. \n But thank you, again, Madame Secretary, we really appreciate you being here, and staying \nfor a few extra minutes with us. \nSecretary Chao . Thank you very much for the opportunity to be with you all. Thank you. \nChairman Boehner . Thank you. \n We will ask the second panel to come forward. As soon as they are ready, we will begin \nthe second panel. 34\nMr. McKeon . [Presiding]. We are happy to welcome our second panel here today. We have Mr. \nMayfield, a constituent of one of our Members. We would like to have Mr. Johnson introduce you at this time. \nMr. Johnson . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. \nI want to welcome Ken Mayfield, who has been a County Commissioner in Dallas County, \nwhich is, as you know, the center of the universe of course, being in Texas. He has recently become the President of the National Association of Counties. And in that prestigious job, I think, he is a welcome witness for this Committee. We welcome you, Ken, and thank you for being here. \nMr. McKeon . Thank you. Our second witness is Dr. Lawrence Mishel, President of the Economic \nPolicy Institute. His areas of expertise include income distribution and poverty, labor markets, wages, unions, and collective bargaining. Dr. Mishel earned his doctorate degree in economics from the University of Wisconsin. \n We appreciate both of you being here. You know the ground rules about five minutes and \nhow the lights work. \n We will hear first from Mr. Mayfiel d, and then Dr. Mishel. Commissioner? \nSTATEMENT OF KENNETH MAYFIELD, PRESIDENT, NATIONAL \nASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES, WASHINGTON, D.C.\nThank you, Mr. McKeon and Mr. Miller, and of course, my good friend Sam Johnson from \nTexas, and other distinguished Members of this Committee. My name is Ken Mayfield; I am the President of the National Association of Counties and a County Commissioner from Dallas County, Texas.\n I am deeply honored to have been asked to testify on H.R. 444 and to offer some comments \non the reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act. Mr. Chairman, I would ask that my written testimony, which was provided to you earlier this week, be made part of the record. \n As you know, every county in America is involved in a local workforce program. We \nbelieve that these programs, as established under the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 have been responding to today's workforce crisis effectively and responsively. \n NACO shares your concern for the ongoing workforce crisis. Quite simply put, too many \npeople are unemployed, and we must help these people return to work as quickly as possible. The decision by this Committee to consider legislation that would enhance the existing workforce system is a vote of confidence in the system, and a vote of confidence that we share with you. \n NACO believes that H.R. 444 is a very important and innovative approach for our \nunemployment problems, and will enable workforce programs to address the problems of long- 35\nterm and structural unemployment. Therefore, we wish to offer our overall support for this bill, \nand we urge you to adopt it with some modification. \n We support the efforts to make personal re-employment accounts as part of the workforce \ndevelopment system, limit substantially the amount of funds that may be used at the state and local levels for administrative purposes, institute sufficient flexibility so that individuals may step outside the parameters established through individual training accounts and utilize different types of services and make these funds directly available to recipients. \n However, we believe that some modifications would be helpful, which include, number \none, each individual who receives a personal re-employment account should be required to establish a personal re-employment plan at the local One-Stop system office to which they are referred.\n Two, as a condition of receiving administrative dollars to operate this program, local \nworkforce investment areas should be required to amend their plans to reflect the kinds of services they will provide to individuals receiving personal re-employment accounts. \n And three, local workforce investment areas should be permitted to supplement PRA funds \nwith Workforce Investment Act funds to ensure their participants can purchase the types of training and employment assistance they need to achieve the outcomes expressed in their personal re-employment plan. \n Four, local One-Stop systems should be permitted to charge for any services that the local \nOne-Stop provides, other than the personal re-employment plan, the cost of which should be covered by administrative funds. \n Individuals who lose their jobs within the first year of employment, through no fault of their \nown, should be permitted to receive Workforce Investment Act intensive and training services. Funds appropriated for personal re-employment accounts should be in addition to those funds appropriated for other Workforce Investment Act activities. \n The Back to Work Incentive Act of 2003 should not become a vehicle by which to \nreauthorize the Workforce Investment Act, except as is necessary to establish this program, or to reform the Wagner-Peyser Act, the employment service, or the unemployment insurance system. \n We also urge you to clarify in your committee report that the term “local area” referenced in \nH.R. 444 is, in fact, a local workforce investment area, as designated under section 116 of the Workforce Investment Act, and that the One-Stop delivery system referenced in H.R. 444 is the same as the One-Stop delivery systems delineated in section 121 of the Act. \n I would also like to take this opportunity to outline for you some of our most significant \nconcerns regarding reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act. We believe that the local public/private partnership, as established under the Workforce Investment Act, should be maintained. The federal/state/local relationship established by the Workforce Investment Act 36\nshould be maintained. \n Appointment authority for the local workforce investment boards must remain with chief \nlocal elected officials. Local One-Stop centers should remain under the guidance and jurisdiction of the local chief elected officials and local workforce investment boards as provided for in current law, and the percentage of private sector representatives of the local workforce investment boards should be increased in the number and percentage of public sector representatives, especially the mandatory partners, should be reduced substantially, or eliminated. \n In conclusion, the National Association of Counties believes strongly that workforce \ndevelopment programs represent an important tool for federal, state, and local governments to respond to the continuing employment crisis. \n While no workforce program can ensure that every American who wishes to work can \nwork, that can only be ensured by a robust economy with substantial job creation capability, we do believe that the current system is well positioned to address the needs of America's unemployed workers and businesses. \n We believe that the Back to Work Incentive Act, and the Workforce Investment Act, of \nwhich it will become a part, if enacted into law, represents important steps towards helping all Americans find work. We therefore welcome this proposal and endorse it, with the modifications recommended. \nSTATEMENT OF KENNETH MAYFIELD, PRESIDENT, NATIONAL \nASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES, WASHINGTON, D.C. – SEE APPENDIX C \nMr. McKeon . Thank you very much. \nDr. Mishel? \nSTATEMENT OF DR. LAWRENCE MISHEL, PRESIDENT, ECONOMIC \nPOLICY INSTITUTE, WASHINGTON, D.C. \nThank you very much, and I appreciate the Committee inviting me to testify on these very \nimportant issues. \n I am going to make three points today. One is that our labor market is troubled. There is, \nessentially, a jobs and income crisis, in my view. Two, the plan that President Bush has proposed will not be very effective at short-term job creation, and will actually destroy jobs in the long run. Three, personal re-employment accounts are far from the answer that the unemployed workers in \nour country need at this point. 37\n Let's turn to the labor market. As you know, the unemployment rate has risen almost two \npercentage points over the last two years, and we have lost more than 2 million jobs, 2 million private sector jobs, since unemployment started rising in October of 2000. \n We also know that household incomes fell in 2001, nearly across the board, and that in \n2002, when we have the numbers later this year, I'm sure we will see that household incomes have continued to fall, as I believe they probably are this month, as well. \n I wanted to point out two things that you may not know about the current labor market \nsituation. One is a reference to Graph 1 in the testimony, which shows what is the job loss in this recession compared to prior recessions, when you're 28 months into a recession. And you will note that this recession we have lost 1.8 percent of our private sector jobs after being in a recession 28 months. And this is a greater loss of jobs than even we had in the early 1990s, the early/mid-1980s recession, and the 1970s recession. \n A second thing I want to point out about the current labor market troubles is that this does \nnot only affect those who are unemployed, it also affects those who are employed, because we are now seeing that wages are falling behind inflation, which we now show on graph two. \n Graph 2 has two bars for each type of worker: low wage, middle wage, and high wage \nworkers. And you will see that in 2001, there is very strong wage growth, faster than inflation, across the board. But during 2002, we see that wages actually grew less than inflation for nearly every type of worker. \n This is very problematic, in my view, and calls for attention to how to create jobs and lower \nunemployment quickly, which brings me to the President's plan, which is labeled a jobs and growth \nplan, especially for the long term. \n I am also proud to share with you a statement that was signed this week by 10 Nobel Prize \nwinners, many prominent economists, and 450 economists in total that was released on Monday.And that statement noted that the tax cut plan proposed by President Bush is not the answer.However one views the specifics of the plan, there is wide agreement that its purpose is a permanent change in the tax structure, and not the creation of jobs and growth in the near term. The permanent dividend tax cut, in particular, is not credible as a short-term stimulus. \n But one need not listen to 10 Nobel Prize winners to know that one can actually look at the \nactual reports of the current Council of Economic Advisors to know that this is a failed plan. Their own analysis, which I show in Chart 3, shows that they claim that the plan will create 1.4 million jobs over the next two years, but that after five years, it only has created 700,000 jobs. That means, with simple mathematics, that over the last three years of this five-year period 233,000 jobs a year are lost. That means, in the long run, we're actually losing jobs. \n If you look at the projections of a standard forecaster, Mark Zandi of Economy.com\n, who \nthe Wall Street Journal just recently referred to as one of the smartest, brightest observers of the economic scene, he estimates that by the year 2013, we will have 750,000 fewer jobs than if the 38\nBush plan had never been legislated. There are many other forecasters who would agree. \n In the short run, there are some jobs, but it's a lot of money to spend, $674 billion, to create \nsome jobs in the next year or two, when all we need to do is to spend some money on some temporary tax and spending measures to create jobs. I might add that all of the plans offered by the Democrats in both the Senate and the House spend less money overall but spend more money up front and create a lot more jobs up front. \n Let me turn to the PRAs. My fear is that the personal re-employment accounts are more \nabout a sense that somehow the unemployed are not really looking hard enough for work and that we need to discipline them by giving them the motivation to get re-employment bonuses. All of the research that shows that they get re-employed shows that they get re-employed one week earlier. That's not really a magnificent achievement, in my view. What workers want most are jobs, then they would like income support if they don't have a job, and they would like training with income support if they are unemployed. \n As I have said, the President's plan does not really create jobs. We have heard today that \nthere is no offer of extended unemployment insurance benefits, and the training is actually worse under the personal re-employment accounts, than I think under the Workforce Investment Act. \n If I just may conclude, it's my fear that this proposal is really about curtailing costs, because \nyou're asking people to decide early in their unemployment, are they going to accept this personal re-employment account so they can get a bonus after 13 weeks. If you accept this, you get $3,000 to spend. But the Secretary earlier said that $3,000 is what, on average, people use. This is a maximum in this plan. Okay. Then if you accept this, and you fail to find work, you're not eligible for the intensive services available in the workforce development system. And then if you're \nunemployed after 26 weeks, of course, you're not going to get any extended benefits later this year, \nso you're just out of luck. \n And so I fear that this is not really going to be that useful to the unemployed. And thank \nyou very much. \nSTATEMENT OF DR. LAWRENCE MISHEL, PRESIDENT, ECONOMIC \nPOLICY INSTITUTE, WASHINGTON, D.C. – SEE APPENDIX D \nMr. McKeon . Thank you.\nMr. Miller? \nMr. Miller . Thank you very much. If I might, Mr. Mayfield, let me ask you a question. On page \nfour of your statement, item number three, you say, “When appropriate, local workforce investment areas should be permitted to add crucial Workforce Investment Act funds to an individual's \npersonal re-employment account to ensure that they can purchase the types of training assistance they need to achieve the outcome expressed in their plan.” 39\n If I read that correctly, you would augment this plan, maybe, with other services that are \navailable through the Workforce Investment Act to try to sort of ensure that you get the results you want with the personal re-employment account. Is that a fair statement of what you're suggesting there? \nMr. Mayfield . Yes, that's a fair statement. We do think that the bill should be modified in some \ncases. If you're not under the PRA, as it is now, they may spend up to $5,000 or $6,000 on individuals to find them work and be successful. \n We think it is reasonable to give the flexibility to the local boards and local individuals who \nwill implement it, that if that $3,000 has been exhausted, and the individual is participating and doing everything and getting the training, that there could be other intensive training that would be available to them under the WIA part that they ought to be able to take advantage of if that board decides that's correct. \nMr. Miller . Well, from my point of view, that's a very encouraging statement, because I think it \nmore properly reflects what's really happening with unemployed people, if you try to determine what is the best avenue to get them back to work, which may even be a new job career ladder in some other industry or place. \n But that kind of flexibility, so you can gather those resources, and try to ensure a positive \noutcome, other than being limited by the $3,000, maybe for the want of another $500 in services or something else, the plan falls apart. \nMr. Mayfield . Yes, we think these will be very limited areas. \nMr. Miller . I understand. \nMr. Mayfield . Let me tell you, we think the $3,000 and the PRA is a great start. It's very \ninnovative, and I think it's a good use of those additional funds to get targeted individuals, looking at the industry that they came from, their employment background, et cetera, get them back to work very quickly. But there will be some situations, I think, that you can anticipate, that there might be other resources that would be needed after the exhaustion of that $3,000 in that particular case. \nMr. Miller . I think that's an important suggestion for the plan. The other concern I have on that \npoint is, as I understand it, the current negotiations in the end of the year appropriations bill here, the Workforce Investment Act is about to take a $600 million hit. And so I just have some concerns whether or not we are putting up this account at the front end, but at the other end on this program that got all the accolades today, the Workforce Investment, we're whacking the budget there fairly substantially at a time of high need. \nMr. Mayfield . Well, obviously, it's still a large increase, $1.2 billion if you subtract that $600 \nmillion from this fiscal year, if that, in fact, is done. And obviously, we think there can be some economies done and tinkering with the local boards, and getting rid of the public sector people and getting more input from private sector. Because really, the public sector, other than the chief local 40\nelected official, doesn't have much power, and doesn't offer as much as the private sector, who have \nbeen out there creating jobs, who employ people, and who can give real-world ideas to how to get these individuals back to work. \nMr. Miller . Do you have an opinion or suggestion of what you anticipate when this current \nextension runs out in May, is that correct? What's your anticipation of whether or not there should be another extension for those people who are about to exhaust? \nMr. Mayfield . I'm not prepared to give an opinion on that. \nMr. Miller . Well, let me ask you this. What's the situation you have with people who have run out \nof unemployment, versus people who still have the financial underpinnings of unemployment insurance? \nWhat's the difference in your caseload, and your success ratios? Is there a difference? I \ndon't know, but is there a difference between people who have exhausted their unemployment benefits, as opposed to those who can go through the work investment programs while they have some financial underpinnings? \nMr. Mayfield . Well, those individuals who have exhausted their unemployment benefits can still \ntake advantage of the training through the local One-Stop. So I don't know if there is what you're talking about, the experience or correlation on that. I'm not prepared to answer that. \nMr. Miller . Thank you. \nMr. McKeon . Thank you. \nMr. Wilson? \nMr. Wilson . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Commissioner Mayfield, it's an honor to have you here \nwith us. I never had the honor of being a county councilman, commissioner, or municipal official, but I have always respected the fact that you are on the front line. As an elected official, you are with the people daily, hourly, by the minute. So I appreciate your statement about real world experience.\n I want to commend the county councils, because it's your jurisdiction for the One-Stop \nCareer Centers that have been so successful in encouraging people to find employment, by really being so helpful and enthusiastic. \n In particular, I also appreciate the suggestions you have for the modifications for the PRA, \nthe personal re-employment accounts. And I think that, as you point out, there should be a plan adopted. I think that makes sense. That's just real world, again. This is not make-believe, it's just helpful, and I hope that that can be done. \n Of course, the flexibility and latitude, I think, is so crucial. Every person, every \ncommunity, is different, and we respect that. And that dreaded word “mandates.” We don't want 41\nmandates, we want you and then the people you work with to administer the program. \n And I also think it works so well with the success of the welfare reform program that we \nwill be voting on tomorrow. And there was prognostication that that plan would be disastrous, but it has had the opposite effect. And so I want to thank you for persisting. \n In regard to the public/private partnerships, could you review the experience Dallas has had \nfor us, and in particular, you said to add more on the private side. Could you tell us about that? \nMr. Mayfield . Yes, Dallas has been very successful, and it's because of the energy and the \ncontributions that the private sector individuals have brought to the table. And that's what we want to encourage, and make sure that we have more of, because sometimes the public sector members of the committee want to delay certain things. \n The private sector is used to implementing things, seeing things work, demanding \naccountability, et cetera, and so that's what we want to keep up. And we think it would be beneficial if we just reduced the committee by the public sector individuals that are on it, and perhaps added some more private sector individuals to replace them. \nMr. Wilson . Well, all of us were always impressed by the enthusiasm of Texans, particularly \npeople from Dallas. And so we appreciate your service. \n I have no further questions. Mr. Mayfield . But let me just say that the National Association of Counties stands ready as a \nresource, particularly on how any of these programs play out in the counties across the United \nStates. And we are very thankful to work with the Department of Labor, and the staff of this \nCommittee and this Committee to, hopefully, bring you some good insight and some good recommendations to make a better bill to get a better result in the work place. \nMr. Wilson . Thank you. \nMr. McKeon . Thank you. \nMr. Kildee. \nMr. Kildee . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. \nDr. Mishel, it's always good to have you before our Committee. \nDr. Mishel . Thank you. \nMr. Kildee . Let me ask you this question. To what extent do you think the Administration \nunderestimates the stimulus of that unemployment compensation? 42\nDr. Mishel . Well, apparently, they must underestimate it a lot, because they're not really very \nprone to providing much. So it turns out that the projections I mentioned earlier from Economy.com\n, a very mainstream forecasting firm, show that the most stimulating aspect of all the \ndifferent plans that have been proposed is actually providing extended UI benefits. \n And the reason is easy to understand. Money you give to someone in those circumstances, \nwe know is going to be spent. And so that will help the economy, because the problem we have in the economy, I think as you understand, is 74 percent of our industrial capacity is used. We're not using the capacity we have now to produce goods and services. What we need are more customers. We don't need more supply-side; we need more demand, more customers. \n You get more customers only a few ways. You give money to some people who are going \nto spend it, or the government actually spends money. The government can spend money in ways that have been suggested, such as giving fiscal relief to the states, or give money to renovate and repair schools, infrastructure, or you give money to people who are going to spend it, which means, necessarily, that you have to have the tax cuts targeted, distributionally, at low and middle-income families. \n Now, of course, that's not what we see with the President's plan, but it is possible to have a \none-time tax cut given to people who are going to spend it. Senator Daschle proposes giving $300 per adult and $300 for the first two children. On the House side, I think some are saying that we should give a certain percentage of wages earned last year, money that could be given to people in April.\n So it's very possible to give money to people who spend, and I think that's what we really \nneed to get some jobs created in this calendar year. \nMr. Kildee . When the Secretary was here, I mentioned Genesee Valley Mall, one of the big malls \nin my district. I can recall 10 or 12 years ago, when the auto industry was going through a great transition, for the first time I had had two meetings with the entrepreneurs and managers at Genesee Valley Mall within about eight months' time. \n The individuals at one meeting were begging me to vote against the increase in minimum \nwage. We had breakfast, and I told them very politely, that I was going to vote for it. But they were telling me, “Please, it will hurt our business if you vote for the minimum wage.” \n About eight months later, they called me out there for another breakfast meeting, saying, \n“When are you going to appropriate the money for the TAA or TRA?” Because they knew that the autoworkers needed that TAA and TRA. And once they got the money, they would be out there spending the money. And that is a stimulus there is no question. \n It's a stimulus that keeps going. Because once their shelves became a little empty, they \nplace orders at the various companies, and they in turn, keep people employed. So it keeps going on and on, and I really believe that the White House is, as you say, greatly underestimating, at least by their actions, the stimulus effect of unemployment compensation. 43\nDr. Mishel . In fact, it's almost as if they designed a plan that was to be ineffective. I was really \nsurprised about it. I had a great day on Monday spending time with these Nobel laureates, talking about the Bush economic plan. And one of the ones from the University of California Berkeley, Daniel McFadden, said that it was an anti-stimulatory plan. It was like a weapon of mass destruction aimed at the middle class. Now, that's not the usual kind of language you get from academics. It's the students at Berkeley who are known to be radicals, not the faculty by the way. \n Professor Franco Modigliani, who laid the foundation for modern economics, an 85-year-\nold man, flew down against doctor's orders because he said he wanted to protest the Bush tax cut, and said that the only reason to do this would be if you wanted to enrich the very rich. \n I find policy people in Washington don't use language like that. But it's surprising; I have \nnever seen any statement on economics signed by 10 Nobel laureates in economics. They are really unified that this is not going to increase investment in jobs in the long run. And Alan Greenspan, yesterday, agreed with them, saying that if you want to do a dividend tax cut, maybe that's a good idea, but it's got to be revenue-neutral. It shouldn't lead to chronic deficits far off into the future. \n And so he's echoing, in a sense, what I think these very brilliant economists have already \nsaid. If you wanted to design something that wasn't going to have an effect in the long run, you would do the dividend tax cut without offsetting revenues. You can't have a long-run effect from the other part of the tax cut, which is basically advancing personal income tax cuts that are already scheduled. I mean, how can advancing something that's already scheduled have a big effect 10 years from now? \n Thank you very much. \nMr. Kildee . Thank you. \nMr. McKeon . Thank you. I am sure when we get to the President's economic growth plan, we will \nhave hearings, and we will spend a lot of time discussing it. Today we are talking about the personal responsibility plan that has been presented. \n You know, it's interesting to me listening to this discussion today, I sometimes wonder if \nI'm on a different planet. We have unemployed people that need help. The President has proposed $3.6 billion worth of help, and we're beating it up. Maybe it's not enough. But why don't we move forward, and then maybe talk about more? Why don't we move forward on the plan to help, and get it to the people that need it the most? \n Commissioner, the Department's budget proposes base re-allotment; we will talk about \nWIA now. They talk about this base re-allotment of the WIA funds among states on unexpended balances. However, we regularly hear from rural areas that these balances do not reflect the actual level of funds available to states and local areas, as many times these funds are often obligated to training and other uses. We are trying to figure out how we grapple with that. 44\n One of the reasons they are saying they want to cut is because they haven't spent the money \nthat we have already given them. And when we talk to them, they say, “Well, we have obligated the funds, but it's the accounting system.” Do you have some suggestions for us as we move forward on the re-authorization of WIA? \nMr. Mayfield . Well, we would be happy to gather some statistics and information from counties \naround the United States regarding that issue, because there is a difference of opinion in looking at what monies are available, because they are obligated, in most instances. They are obligated to be spent; they just have not been formally spent yet, and still are on the books. But they are obligated. \n So that is a problem, and we feel that our accounting and the amounts of funds that are \navailable are more accurate than the Department of Labor's accounting. \nMr. McKeon . This is something I think we are really going to have to pull together and work on, \nbecause I think if we had done a better job of pleading our case, we wouldn't have had that $600 million cut. Because every time I talked to them, their rationale for it is that they don't need it, because the monies out there aren't spent. \n We found one other thing. It just seems to me, in talking to people at the One-Stop, they \ntell me that it took them some time to get up to speed and get things going. We just passed the Act in 1998, and then got the regs written and forwarded to the local people to implement, and that's another reason why they haven't spent those funds. \nMr. Mayfield . Absolutely, absolutely. That is the de lay that is unaccounted for in there. Had \neverything been up and running, and everybody ready to go the minute the law was passed, you wouldn't see that there. But because of those delays, you have those balances. \nMr. McKeon . Well, I think those two things are things we have to really work on, because we \nshouldn't have had that $600 million cut. And especially now when we do have an unemployment problem, and we have people out there that need these resources, we really need to be focused in on that. And that's something we need to look at when we do the re-authorization. \nMr. Mayfield . We would offer to work very closely with you to get some statistics and \ninformation on that, to help in that regard. \nMr. McKeon . I want to thank you both for being here today. Excuse me. Mr. Miller? \nMr. Miller . Thank you. I would like to have a chance to ask some questions of Dr. Mishel. \nMr. McKeon . I was using my time. \nMr. Miller . Oh, I'm sorry; I thought you were getting ready to close the hearing. \nMr. McKeon . I am. 45\nMr. Miller . I wanted to ask a second round of questions under the rules. \nMr. McKeon . Go ahead. \nMr. Miller . Thank you.\nDr. Mishel, first of all, the program on Monday was spectacular. It was really one of the \nbest conversations on our economy that I think could have been put forth in front of the American people, and also incredibly understandable, given that they were all economists speaking there. \nDr. Mishel . I understand. Thank you very much. \nMr. Miller . The reason you're here is that the title of this hearing is “Back to Work: The \nAdministration's Plan for Economic Recovery And The Workforce Investment Act.” \n If you go back to your testimony, on page six, talking about the forecasts of Economy.com\n,\nand by microeconomics advisors and others, the question is, will this $3,000 allowance work? Will this have an impact? Will it make a difference for these workers? \n A lot of this, I think, makes sense in terms of making sure that people can pick up the \noptions that might make sense to them, whether it's at a community college, other access to training, or what have you. But I go back to “where are the jobs”? I mean, if you read the combination of economic forecasts, and as you point out, from very mainstream economic forecasters, including even the President's, Mr. Hubbard, in the short term and the long term, there is no real job growth here. I mean, at one point you get the President's plan creating over several years maybe 100,000, 150,000 jobs. \nDr. Mishel . Right. \nMr. Miller . So where do we get this? I mean, you mentioned that it's a lack of the demand. Again, \nif you read the business journals, you have the CEO of almost every company saying, “We're concerned about the demand for our products,” whether they're selling automobiles, semi-conductors, microchips, whatever they're selling, every company has said, “We're concerned about the softness of demand.” \nDr. Mishel . Thank you for your question. In fact, that is exactly what the Business Roundtable \nsaid a few months ago, when they issued a call for a stimulus plan, that they needed customers, they needed demand. \n Well, let's just look at the short run, what we can expect, in terms of jobs and \nunemployment. I was a little bit surprised by Secretary Chao saying that 5.7 percent is what the average was in the 1990s sort of indicating that it was somehow acceptable. It was just two years ago we had roughly 4 percent unemployment, and I think that needs to be our target. \nChairman Greenspan yesterday suggested that unemployment is going to remain as high as \nit is now, or higher, over the next year. If that's the case, we know that it's going to be very hard to 46\nget work. The numbers that were reflected earlier in a question from the JOLTS survey of the \nBureau of Labor Statistics that there are less than 3 million vacancies, but more than 8 million people looking for work indicates that there are basically three unemployed workers for every job available.\n Now, that doesn't mean that we shouldn't do things on the workforce training side. I think \neverybody here agrees that we need to give everybody help. But you know, in economics we learned that somehow there is a queue, and sometimes these things just jump people in the queue. What we really need to do is get rid of the number of unemployed. And the only way to do that is to really focus your money on how to create jobs right now, and stimulate demand. And I think that's what you're driving at, and I think that would be very important to do. \n So a training strategy coupled with a job creation strategy makes sense. A training strategy \nthat is not coupled with a job creation strategy is not so sensible, in my view. \nMr. Miller . Well, I guess it's just a problem for us. You know, we, the Democrats, put together an \neconomic stimulus package. The President then said that they shouldn't view his package as economic stimulus; they should view it as growth. But when the econometrics people look at the growth, they say the growth isn't there over the long term, and short term, the help in the jobs isn't there.\nI just see that we have a couple of ships; we've got the unemployed going in one direction in \nthe middle of the night, and we've got the ship of state going in the other direction, and we're going to pass right by one another. And this is going to be millions of families where there isn't going to be the help. \n When we're constructing these accounts, again, which I'm not hostile to, the question has \ngot to be at the end of the day, is a person more likely to get a job? Is the person, in fact, going to get a job? And I don't see that. \n And you know, you can even layer over the top of that that we now see more and more \ncompanies moving to Asia, not to sell into the Asian market, but for export. You just saw the largest semiconductor in Taiwan, which was a low-cost producer decide that they are moving to China of all things; Taiwanese companies moving to China for export. You see Honda moving to China for export. You see General Motors moving to Korea for export back to the American market. That suggests that some of these jobs that we have lost in this recession may not be coming back. \nYou know, that's another layer on top of this notion of whether we're creating long-term \ngrowth or short-term stimulus, and it appears that the Administration is creating neither, except deficit. I mean, you kind of get the deficit, but you don't get the benefit. \nMr. McKeon . Mr. Kildee, did you have a question? \nMr. Miller . I feel I just had the last word that I'm probably going to get here. 47\nMr. McKeon . I think the rules also say Mr. Kildee may question. \nMr. Kildee . No, I have no further questions. \nMr. McKeon . Thank you very much. We appreciate your being here today.\nWe have Mr. Kucinich's remarks to enter into the record. \nMr. Kucinich . Thank you. \nMr. McKeon . If there are any other statements, we will keep the record open. \nWe appreciate your working with us as we go through this process, and your input, as we \ngo through the Workforce Investment Act. \n Thank you very much.

Please review the in formation on the following link for specific \ninformation regarding the lega l requirements that must be satisfied under the program. \nhttp://www.deq.idaho.gov/rules/air/58_0101_0901_proposed.cfm\n \nDEQ intends to use the information provided to develop a Request for Proposal (RFP) to \nimplement an I/M program. \nOverview \n The Legislature enacted, and the Governor signed into law on April 1, 2008, Idaho Code \nSection 39-116B, entitled Vehicl e inspection and maintenance program. It requires DEQ \nto enter into rulemaking to establish the minimum requirements for a vehicle inspection \nand maintenance program when ambient air quality concentrations in an airshed within a \nmetropolitan statistical area ar e at or above 85% of a Na tional Ambient Air Quality \nStandard (NAAQS) and motor vehicle emissions constitute one of the top two contributing sources to the concentrations. Based on recorded air quality monitoring data , DEQ determined that the ozone ambient \nconcentrations in the Treasure Valley had for the past 3 years, a de sign value greater than \n85% of the ozone NAAQS. DEQ also determin ed (included in this determination are \nAda and Canyon counties and the respective citi es only) that motor vehicle emissions \nconstitute one of the top two emission sources contributing to the 85% design value. As a \nresult DEQ entered into a negotiated ru lemaking, and the Board of Environmental \nQuality adopted as pending, the rule Docket referenced above. Per Idaho Code Section 39-116B(3), the aff ected counties and cities were given the \noption of (1) entering into a joint exercise of powers agreement with DEQ, (2) submitting \nan alternative motor vehicle emission cont rol strategy that woul d result in emission \nreductions equivalent to that of an I/M progr am, or (3) if the affect ed counties and cities \ndo not choose (1) or meet the requirements of (2) then DEQ or its designee must \nimplement an I/M program for the area. DEQ received various responses from the citi es and counties covering all three options. \nUnfortunately, although the proposed alternat ive motor vehicle strategies submitted by \nseveral entities were commendable, they fell far short of the emission reductions \npredicted to result from an I/M program. Consequently, DEQ is seeking information \nunder this request for information (RFI) to as sist in developing a request for proposal \n(RFP) to implement the I/M program. Page 5 of 6 \nCurrently, Ada County and its cities, ex cluding Kuna, implement an I/M program \npursuant to a joint exercise of powers agreement. This program was established as part \nof a carbon monoxide attainment plan. It is anticipated that the RFP will seek a cost \nproposal to implement a program in Canyon Co unty and the city of Kuna, and a second \ncost proposal to implement a program in Ada County. Interested vendors should \nunderstand that the I/M program being proposed may include: (1) Canyon county and its \ncities, and the city of Kuna, or (2) Canyon County and its cities, and the city of Kuna, and \nAda County and its cities. With the info rmation obtained during the RFI and RFP \nprocess, DEQ will discuss with Ada county a nd its cities the options available. Ada \nCounty and its cities may enter into a join t exercise of powers agreement with DEQ \nwherein they opt to implement the same I/M program as that in Canyon County. On the other hand, they may enter into a joint exercise of powers ag reement wherein they opt to \ncontinue operating a program similar to that in operation now. To fulfill the statement of purpose of Idaho C ode Section 39-116B, that is to implement \nan I/M program in an airshed that is a pproaching nonattainment, it is DEQ’s goal to \nimplement as fully as possible an I/M progr am by the next ozone season, which begins \napproximately on June 1, 2010. \nAgency Needs \n DEQ intends to issue an RFP to identify a successful bidder interested in implementing \nan I/M program. At present DEQ is aware of f our different types of I/M programs. These \ninclude a centralized program, where all ve hicles are tested at a central location, a \ndecentralized program, where vehicles are te sted in various locations throughout the area \n(this is the system currently in place in Ada County), a hybrid version (incorporating \nelements of both a centralized and decentr alized programs), and a remote sensing \nprogram, where vehicles are screened when tr aveling by a remote sensor. Those vehicles \nthat do not pass the screen test are then re quired to undergo additional testing. This RFI \nrequests information about these programs and any other potential suitable programs. \n The contractor will be paid th rough the collection of inspection fees from motorists. The \nfee is capped by Idaho Code S ection 39-116B at $20 per vehicle. From the fee collected, \nwhich could be lower than $20, the contractor must pay DEQ monies sufficient for DEQ \nto cover its administrative and oversight co sts, fund a public outreach program per Idaho \nCode Section 39-116B(2)(g) and reimburse the Idaho departme nt of transportation for \ncosts associated with the registration revoc ation procedure described in Idaho Code \nSection 39-116B(4). \nResponse Requirements \n DEQ is looking for an efficient and cost eff ective way to fulfill its statutory requirement \nto implement an I/M program. DEQ intends to use the informati on collected under this \nRFI to issue an RFP. Page 6 of 6 In responding to this RFI, please provide the following: \n \n1. Brief summary of your business and qualifications \n2. Information regarding technologies ava ilable to assist DEQ in identifying \nprogram options \n3. Description of overall program and admini stration to operate a fully implemented \nI/M program \n4. Description of program implementation incl uding types, numbers and locations of \ntesting, data collection methods , and reporting mechanisms \n5. An estimated timeline for designing and implementing an I/M program \n If any vendor believes their responses contain confidential information, please mark those \npages accordingly. Cost information and costing models will be used for budgetary or planning purposes only, and can be marked conf idential if necessary. DEQ is interested \nin suggestions and elements necessary to secure the best possible RFP. \n Written responses and supporting informati on must be received by December 1, 2009. \n Please send written response a nd supporting information to: \n Marcia Todd Idaho Department of Environmental Quality Fiscal Office 1410 North Hilton Boise, Idaho 83706 \nDEQ wishes to thank respondents fo r assistance in this endeavor. \n \nFor more information \n Potential respondents may contact Marcia Todd at the above address, by email at \nmarcia.todd@deq.idaho.gov or by phone at (208 ) 373-0286 for additional information.

This paper\nreports on the next step in the BLISS development inwhich the fidelity of the aerodynamic drag and\nstructural stress and displacement analyses were\nupgraded while the methodÕs satisfactory convergence\nrate was retained.\nIntroduction\nBLISS, for Bi-Level Integrated System Synthesis, is an\noptimization method for engineering a modular system,\ne.g., an aerospace vehicle, in which it is beneficial to\nseparate the design variables and constraints local to a\nmodule from those that govern the entire system. Suchseparation fosters development of a broad workfront ofpeople and computers, hence it fits well the current\ntrends for massively parallel processing in computer\ntechnology and the co ncurrent engineering style of the\nworkforce organization.\nThe focus on dividing the optimization into the\nsuboptimizations within each module (subsystem, also\ncalled the black box) and a coordinating optimization atthe system level places BLISS in the MultidisciplinaryDesign Optimization (MDO) toolbox, in the company\nof a few other methods that have the same focus as\nBLISS but differ in approach. Representative examples\nof these methods are the Collaborative Optimization 2\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics(CO) (Braun et al, 1965), the Concurrent SubSpace\nOptimization (CSSO) (Sobieszczanski-Sobieski, 1988,Bloebaum et al, 1992), and the Concurrent Design\nOptimization (Wujek et al, 1995).\nThe distinguishing features of BLISS are the use of the\nsystem objective (e.g., the aircraft range) as the\noptimization objective in each of the subsystems and atthe system level, and coupling between the\noptimizations at the system and subsystem levels bythe optimum sensitivity derivatives with respect to\nparameters.\nThe overall architecture of BLISS as a method does not\ndepend on the fidelity of the analyses performed in each\nmodule. Consequently, in principle at least, BLISS\nmay be used in any design phase from conceptual,through preliminary to detailed, provided thatappropriate level of analysis is implemented in the\nmodules.\nThe BLISS method was introduced in (Sobieszczanski-\nSobieski et al, 1998a) and documented in detail in(Sobieszczanski-Sobieski et al, 1998b\n*). In the paper,\nthat prototype is referred to as the original BLISS. In\nits original form BLISS modules were kept very simplecorresponding to the early conceptual design phase.\nSatisfactory results from the initial trials of BLISS on atest case of a business jet encouraged next step in the\nBLISS development - upgrading its structural analysis\nand aerodynamic drag analysis modules - and validatingon the same test case.\nThis paper reports on the above BLISS upgrade and\nresults of the testing that advance the methods toward\nbecoming a tool suitable for practical applications. Thereport provides a synopsis of the BLISS method,\ndescribes the salient features of the two upgraded\nmodules, presents satisfactory convergence results, and\nsummarizes the BLISS development status and thefuture development direction.\nNotation\nAR HT Ð tail aspect ratio\nAR W Ð wing aspect ratio\nBB i Ð black box\nCD Ð coefficient of drag\nCf Ð skin friction coefficient\nD Ð dragESF Ð engine scale factorh Ð altitude\n \n* The 1998a and 1998b references are also available at\nhttp://techreports.larc.nasa.gov/ltrs/k Ð safety factor\nL Ð liftL/D Ð lift to drag ratioL\nHT Ð horizontal tail location, % mean aerodynamic\nchord (% MAC)L\nW Ð wing location, % MAC\nM Ð Mach numberN\nZ Ð maximum load factor\nR Ð rangeSFC Ð specific fuel consumptionS\nHT Ð horizontal tail surface area\nSREF Ð wing surface area\nT Ð throttlet/c Ð thickness to chord ratiot\ni Ð wingbox sandwich face sheets thicknesses\nts,i Ð wingbox sandwich caliper thicknesses\nXi Ð design variables local to BB i\nXL, XU Ð lower and upper bounds on X, side-\nconstraintsW\nE Ð engine weight\nWF Ð fuel weight\nWT Ð total weight\nYi.j Ð behavior variables output from BB i and sent as\ninputs BB j\nZ Ð system-level design variablesl Ð taper ratio\nL\nHT Ð horizontal tail sweep\nLW Ð wing sweep\nQ Ð wing twist\nSynopsis of BLISS\nA synopsis of BLISS that also appeared in Agte et al,\n1999 is as follows.\nBLISS is a method for optimization of engineering\nsystems that separates the system-level optimization\nfrom potentially numerous autonomous subsystemoptimizations. As shown in Figure 1, it utilizes asystem architecture in which design and behavior\nvariables are split into three categories. X-variables are\nthose design variables optimized at the local level andare unique to each particular subsystem. Behavior\nvariables that are output from one subsystem and input\nto another are designated Y, and the system-level\ndesign variables are specified as Z. System-level\nvariables are those shared by at least two subsystems. 3\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and AstronauticsSubsystem 3Subsystem 1 Subsystem 2\nSubsystem 4YÕsYÕs\nYÕs\nYÕsX1\nX4X2\nX3Z - system level\nFigure 1: BLISS system structure\nAfter a best guess initialization, the first step in the\nBLISS begins with the system analysis and sensitivityanalysis in which Y and the derivatives of Y withrespect to Z and X are computed. A linear\napproximation to the system objective (an element of\nY) as a function of Z and X is established using theabove derivatives. That approximation is adopted asthe objective function in subdomain optimizations thatfollow next. In each subdomain (module, or black\nbox), the Z and Y variables are frozen and an\nimprovement in the objective function is sought by thelocal optimizations that use local X separately in each\nmodule. The frozen Z and Y are constant parameters in\neach module optimization and the module optimizationis followed by computation of the derivatives of theoptimum with respect to these parameters. The second\nstep achieves improvement through the system-levelvariables Z and is linked to the first step by thederivatives of optimum with respect to parameters Z\nand Y. The derivatives are used to extrapolate each\nsubdomain optimum as a function of Z and Y. Thefunctional relation Y=Y(Z) is approximated byextrapolation based on the system sensitivity analysis.\nThese steps alternate until convergence.

The commondenominator of these modules was the extreme\nsimplicity of analyses that employed closed-form\nexpressions for input-to-output mapping. This was so\nbecause of the need to test the overall procedure\norganization and the two-level algorithm convergence at\nthe initial development stage of a new method without\nbeing encumbered by long turn-around times in the\nmodules. The next logical step in the BLISS\ndevelopment is to upgrade the fidelity of the modules\nwhile holding the overall procedure organization\nunchanged.\nUpgrades in the BLISS Structures and\nAerodynamics Modules\nThe modularity of BLISS permits replacing or adding\nblack boxes to refine or alter the optimization and\nanalysis tools in each modules allowing the engineer\nthe flexibility to exercise his judgment. Having tools\nof different level of fidelity in the modules enables\napplications of BLISS in different design phases. The\nadvanced BLISS method incorporates two new modulesthat can be used in lieu of previous black boxes. The\nstructures module now can use the Equivalent\nLaminated Plate Solution (ELAPS, Giles, 1986) and\nthe aerodynamics module can use a code called\nAWAVE (Harris, 1964) to perform wave drag analysis.\nIntegration of ELAPS\nIn the previous application example, BLISS employed\na skin-stringer representation of the internal wing box\nbays. This model broke the wing down into a three\nbay wing box whose geometry varied with the taper\nratio, wing sweep, thickness to chord ratio, wingspan,and aspect ratio, all manipulated as design variables in\nthe system-level optimization. The displacements,e.g., the wing twist, and stresses, were computed using\nsimple, thin-walled box-beam formulas (e.g., Bruhn,\n1965)\nIn the BLISS application shown herein, the level of\naccuracy in this module is raised by substituting the\nprevious model with the Equivalent Laminated Plate 4\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and AstronauticsSolution (ELAPS) computer code. This code designed\nwith preliminary design stage calculations in mind iscapable of modeling aircraft wing structures with\nmultiple trapezoidal segments. The wing structure is\nrepresented as a plate whose stiffness is set equivalent\nto that of the original, built-up, structural box of thewing. ELAPS employs a set of displacement functionsdefined over each trapezoidal segment and made\ncompatible in regard to translations and rotations at thesegment junctions. Minimization of the strain energy\nbased on the Ritz method leads to equations from\nwhich to calculate static deflections and internal forces.The latter are then converted to stresses taking into\naccount the details of the wing box built-up cross-\nsection.\nThe accuracy of the results of ELAPS has been found to\nbe somewhat below that of finite element codes (Giles,1986) but the ELAPS input is much simpler and faster\nto develop. The computation time for an ELAPS\nmodel is more than an order of magnitude faster than\nthat of an equivalent finite element model - animportant feature for a tool to be integrated into an\noptimization procedure.\nIntegrated in BLISS, ELAPS receives its input from a\npre-processor routine that generates an input file with\nthe skin thickness, aspect ratio, taper ratio, thickness tochord ratio, sweep, reference area, and aircraft weight.\nThe model used by ELAPS analyzes stress along thesame three bay wingbox configuration used as an\nexample in the original application of BLISS. Each\nwingbox consists of the top and bottom sandwich\npanels of different thicknesses and sandwich webs\nidentical in the front and rear of the wingbox. The\nfront spar of the wing box is located at 10% of thechord length and the rear spar lies at 70% of the chord\nlength.

ELAPS models such a built-up\nstructure by representing each face and the core as\nseparate elements linked in a common coordinate grid. \n1\n23\n45\n6L\nh ts2ts1\nts3ts2\nts3\n?t311\n2233\n4455\n66L\nh ts2ts1\nts3ts2\nts3\n?t3\nFigure 4: Wingbox Model\nAs it was done in the original BLISS implementation,\nthe aerodynamic loads are being generated within the\nstructures module in the pre-processor to structural\nanalysis. To calculate the lift loads on the wing, the\npre-processor routine averages spanwise between an\nelliptical lift distribution and a linear distribution thatreflects the wing chord taper. The elliptical and taper\nratio based lift distributions for the wing are each\nnormalized to contain an area of unity as illustrated in\nFigure 5. The averaged, spanwise load distribution is\nmultiplied by the lift required from the wing and\ndistributed chordwise. The chordwise distribution is a\ntypical supersonic one with the center of pressure\nlocated at 50% of the chord. The aerodynamic load\ndistribution would be expected to be calculated by an\naerodynamics module using a higher fidelity analysis,\ne.g., a computational fluid dynamics code. Thus, thepresent aerodynamic loads generation is merely a\nplaceholder for a real aerodynamic loads analysis in a\nfuture BLISS upgrade.\nIn summary, the structural module employs ELAPS to\ncalculate the stresses in the wing box for the given\nconfiguration, lift distribution, and corresponding\nconstraints. It also outputs the wing twist and weight\nand the objective function for the local optimization.\nThe aerodynamics module accepts the output and\nmodels its influence on the aerodynamic response. 5\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and AstronauticsLift Distribution\n00.20.40.60.811.21.41.61.8\n0 0.1 0.2 0 . 3 0 .4 0.5 0.6 0 . 7 0 .8 0.9 1Spanwise LocationNormalized Lift\nTaper Shape Elliptical Modified\nFigure 5: ELAPS Lift Distribution\nIntegration of AWAVE\nThe cruise segment of the test case mission is\nsupersonic. The original model (Sobieszczanski-\nSobieski et al, 1998) used an approximation relying onthe span efficiency factor. That approximation was\nreplaced herein with a code, AWAVE, that is a\nstreamlined version of the far-field wave drag program\n(Harris, 1964). There are two versions of the Harris\nwave drag program in common use at LaRC. The\noriginal version, described in the reference, treats lifting\nsurfaces as a series of 3-dimensional solid elements. Amuch faster but slightly less accurate version treats\nlifting surfaces as 2-dimensional panels with finite\nthicknesses. Due to compensating errors at positive\nand negative roll angles of the Mach cutting plane, the\npanel version gives excellent results for wave drag\ncoefficients. The objective of the last (AWAVE) effort\nwas to develop a version of the wave drag program withthe accuracy of the solid element program that is faster\nthan the panel version. The AWAVE code\nimplemented computes the wave drag on the basis of\nthe aircraft cross-section distribution along the\ncenterline, hence it requires data about the entire\nconfiguration geometry to enable the area ruling of\nsupersonic body design.\nSimilarly to the integration of ELAPS, integration of\nAWAVE was accomplished by creating a pre-processor\nto generate the necessary input. The input provides thecurrent designÕs aspect ratio, taper ratio, thickness to\nchord ratio, sweep angle, wing reference area, horizontaltail sweep angle, horizontal tail aspect ratio, and\nhorizontal tail reference area. The pre-processor also\ncreates and places the wing and tail airfoils according tothe design configuration variables. The AWAVE\noutput is the wave drag coefficient to be added to the\nother drag components whose calculation remains thesame as in the original BLISS.Numerical Implementation\nCompared to the original application of BLISS to the\nsupersonic business jet case, incorporation of ELAPS\nand AWAVE in BLISS required some changes to\nconstraints and allocation of the design variables to thesystem and subsystem levels.\nXP={T}\nXA={LHT,LW,LHT}\nXS={ [ t], [ ts]}Propulsion\nAer odynamics\nSt r uct u re s\nRanget/c,h,M,AR W,L,SREF,SHT,AR HT,l\nWFO, WO, NZ, WBE, CDMIN, M<1,hHZ - Variables\nCo nstantsh,M,,ARHT,SHT\nARW,SREF ,L,t/c t/c,SHT ,A RW\nL,SREF,ARHTM, h M, h\nhH,CDMIN ,M<1\nWBEWFO,WO \nNZWT,Q WT,WFL/DSFC\nLESF\nDWE\nR\nT-th rottle\nLHT-tail sweep\nLW-see Figure 1\nLHT-see Fig ure 1\n[t]-thickness array,\nsize 1x9\n[tS]-thickness array,\nsize 1x9\nl-taper ratioD-drag\nESF-eng. scale fact.

With the integrationof ELAPS and AWAVE, the taper ratio affects both the\naerodynamics and structures module. While the\naerodynamics module optimization may tend toward a\ntaper ratio to reduce induced drag, the structures modulemay generate a different taper value to reduce stresses.\nTo resolve this trade-off, the taper ratio was raised to a\nsystem variable, capable of influencing both modules.\nFigure 6 shows the current black box and variable\ninteractions.\nIn this model there are nine system-level Z-variables,\neach influencing a minimum of two of the subsystems.The local variables of each subsystem are manipulated\nonly in the optimization local to that subsystem. Thepropulsion module has the throttle as its sole local\nvariable. In the present state of BLISS, the range\nmodule is an exception as it performs no optimization.\nIt only evaluates the Breguet range formula. The\naerodynamics module optimizes the local variables of 6\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and Astronauticsthe horizontal tail sweep as well as the variables that\nplace the wing and tail along the fuselage axis. The\nstructural subsystem optimization operates on the\nsandwich face sheet and caliper thicknesses for the wingcover panels and the webs of the three wingbox bays. \nThe ten Y-variables noted in the off-diagonal boxes in\nFigure 6, represent couplings of the black boxes and arecomputed in the system analysis.\nBLISS was originally implemented in MATLAB 5.3.0\nat both the system and subsystem levels. TheMATLAB Optimization Toolbox was used as anoptimizer in the subsystem and system optimizations.In the version of BLISS reported herein, the use of\nMATLAB continued as above with the exception of thestructures and aerodynamics modules that incorporated\nELAPS and AWAVE, both written in FORTRAN 77.\nMATLAB provides a facility to invoke FORTRAN\nfrom a MATLAB code. To exploit that facility, thepreprocessors to both ELAPS and AWAVE were\nwritten in FORTRAN and converted into MEX-Files\nusing the MATLAB mex-function (Appendix). Both\nAWAVE and ELAPS were then directly called from\nwithin the BLISS modules. On the output side,simple post-processing generated outputs in a format\nacceptable to the parts of BLISS that remained being\ncoded in MATLAB for further analysis. Because of the\nMATLAB ability to invoke FORTRAN codes, theBLISS upgrading process may continue by addingFORTRAN-coded modules wherever required while\nretaining the MATLAB core that executes the method\nlogic illustrated by the flowchart in Fig. 1.\nResults\nBLISS iterations terminate when the change in the\naircraft range objective varies less than ten nautical\nmiles. This took seven passes through the flowchart in\nFigure 2. The system-level design variables converged\nwithin the first few passes. Further optimizations\nfocused primarily on the local variables. Most of the\nchanges occurred within the structures module where\nthe new ELAPS-based optimization kept refining thevariables searching for the best solution. The majority\nof the computational time was spent in this module.Table 1 shows the variable progression through the\noptimization process.\nThe table reflects the major trade-offs that occur\nbetween the wing sweep angle, airfoil thickness ratio,\nand the wing aspect ratio, all of which govern the\nstructural weight and drag that, in turn, influence theva r \\ c y c l e 1 2345678\nRange (NM) 1051 4492 3938 3546 3399 2432 2493 2493\nt1 (inner) 2 0.617 1.326 0.944 0.643 0.192 0.192 0.192\nt1 (middle) 2 0.301 0.624 0.637 1.028 0.663 0.663 0.663\nt1 (outer) 2 0.383 0.53 0.322 0.457 0.044 0.044 0.044\nt2 (inner) 2 12 7.449 5.573 3.089 0.012 0.012 0.012\nt2 (middle) 2 12 2.803 0.909 8.864 0.012 0.012 0.012\nt2 (outer) 2 12 0.6 0.012 12 8.115 8.115 8.115\nt3 (inner) 2 0.48 0.729 0.824 0.173 1.075 1.075 1.075\nt3 (middle) 2 1.348 0.562 0.511 0.548 0.517 0.517 0.517\nt3 (outer) 2 0.115 0.267 0.248 0.265 0.012 0.012 0.012\nts1 (inner) 4 0.617 1.325 0.944 1.985 2.205 2.205 2.205\nts1 (middle) 4 0.865 0.624 0.637 1.028 0.663 0.663 0.663\nts1 (outer) 4 0.383 0.53 0.322 0.617 0.233 0.233 0.233\nts2 (inner) 4 24 24 23.17 12.46 3.466 3.466 3.466\nts2 (middle) 4 24 0.464 0.665 23.02 14.31 14.31 14.31\nts2 (outer) 4 24 2.583 1.802 24 2.229 2.229 2.229\nts3 (inner) 4 0.48 0.37 0.677 0.177 1.076 1.076 1.076\nts3 (middle) 4 1.348 0.562 0.511 0.068 0.391 0.391 0.391\nts3 (outer) 4 0.115 0.267 0.248 0.38 0.251 0.251 0.251\nL\nHT (¡) 60 70 70 70 40 40 40 40\nLW (%MAC ) 1 011 2 1 111\nLHT (%MAC) 250 350 350 100 350 100 100 100\nT 0.35 0.319 0.236 0.241 0.255 0.281 0.31 0.31\nt/c 0.05 0.058 0.058 0.058 0.058 0.058 0.058 0.058\nh (ft) 55000 60000 60000 60000 60000 60000 60000 60000\nM 1 . 822 2 2 222\nARW 4 2.5 2.607 2.607 2.607 2.607 2.607 2.607\nLW (¡) 55 40 40.63 40.63 40.63 40.63 40.63 40.63\nSREF (ft2) 400 200 200 200 200 200 200 200\nSHT (ft2) 150 150 150 150 150 150 150 150\nARHT 6.5 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5 8.5\nlW 0.2 0.1 0.1 0.1 0.1 0.1 0.1 0.1\nTable 1: Supersonic Business Jet Results\nrange. Ultimately, influences of these variables on the\nrange differ in sign, therefore, the procedure seeks a\ncompromise. For example, the wing sweep initially\nincreases to approximately 70 degrees and then falls to\n40 while the taper ratio decreases to 0.1. The wing\nreference area rapidly reduces to 200 square feet as the\nwing aspect ratio is brought down first to 2.5 and then\nincreased to 2.607. The wing position is briefly\nchanged in the fourth cycle but quickly returns to its\ninitial value. The wing configuration progression isdepicted in Figure 7.

The tail\nsweep ends up almost matching the wing sweep but hasa significantly larger aspect ratio. Further analysis of\nthe tail may involve incorporating an ELAPS model ofthe tail to increase fidelity of analysis in that\ncomponent.\nThe skin thicknesses change throughout the process\nseeking the maximum of the structure contribution to\nthe range under the stress constraints for the given\nconfiguration geometry, the latter governed by the Z-\nvariables.

Then, by the sixth cycle the\noptimizer had found a solution that allowed allconstraints to be met and in the seventh cycle it found\nthe optimal configuration. Figure 9 shows theprogression of the aircraft Take-Off Gross Weight and\nits components of empty weight and fuel.\nFigure 9: Aircraft WeightFigure 10 depicts a histogram of the aircraft range. It\nstarts off at a feasible design point. The cycles two\nthrough five did not lie within the design space, butBLISS returned to the design space and settled on a\nfeasible design with optimized range.\nThe last implementation of BLISS to the supersonic\nbusiness jet test case (Agte, 1999) yielded a range of\n2,189 nautical miles. With the addition of AWAVE\nand ELAPS, the more refined analysis increased the\nrange to 2,493 nautical miles. \nDistribution of elapsed computing time over the BLISS\nmodules is displayed in Table 2. It is evident thatmost of the elapsed time is spent in ELAPS but that\nwould change drastically if a CFD-level analysis were\nused in the aerodynamics module. If BLISS were\ngrown to the point where all the major modules would\nconsume about equal amount of the elapsed time, then\ndistributed execution on concurrently operatingmachines (or processors within a multiprocessor\nmachine) would radically compress the elapsed time of\nthe entire BLISS execution.\nBLISS ELAPS AWAVE\nPercent of Time 8.36% 89.78% 1.87%\nTable 2: Processor Time Use\nThe next step in the BLISS development is to\nincorporate additional modules to increase the analysis\nfidelity. The largest refinement would be expected\nfrom adding a computational fluid dynamics code to\nperform the aerodynamic analysis, including the loads.\nThe propulsion data quality would benefit from\nreplacing the current response surface fitted to a look-uptable with a comprehensive engine analysis. Also, the\nsimple Breguet formula for the aircraft range would\nneed to be replaced by a complete performance analysis \nConclusions and Remarks\nIntegration of ELAPS and AWAVE into BLISS\ndemonstrated the modular nature of the method and its\nability to accommodate refinements. Used in a limited\ntest case of a supersonic business jet design, the two-\nlevel optimization in BLISS was effective in satisfying\nthe system-level and local constraints while attaining asystem-level objective within a reasonable number of\niterations. Separation of the system-level designvariables from the local ones enabled optimization for asystem-level objective while providing autonomy of thedesign decision and tool choice within disciplines\nrepresented in the modules.Aircr aft Total and Em pty Weight\n12 0 0 014 0 0 016 0 0 018 0 0 020 0 0 022 0 0 024 0 0 026 0 0 028 0 0 030 0 0 0\n123 456 78BLISS C ycle Numbe rWeight (lb)Total Weight\nEmpty WeightFuel Weight 8\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and AstronauticsThe method is open to further upgrades in terms of the\nfidelity of analysis and optimization t echniques\nemployed in the modules.

The user must\nlocate the place in BLISS where a c all is made to\nanalysis that is to be replaced. Then he must ex amine\nthe input and output of the new and old analysis to\nensure that the remainder of BLISS is capable of\nsupplying input the new analysis requires and that the\nnew analysis produces all the output expected. Then a 9\nAmerican Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics pre-processor routine must be created to present the\nvariable information to the FORTRAN code in an\nappropriate format. Finally the data must be harvested\nand returned to the MATLAB module from which the\nFORTRAN code is being called in a format compatiblewith MATLAB. \nPre-processing\nIn pre-processing, BL ISS must pass the needed\nvariables to a routine which will manipulate them into\na form that the FORTRAN code will accept. The\nprogrammer must first ensure that the module in which\nhe is pre-processing has access to the required variables\n(i.e., the subsystem must not be using X variables\nassigned to other subsystems). \nThe two FORTRAN codes integrated required\nformatted text input files. The easiest way to prepare\nthese files was to use a FORTRAN subroutine to take\nthe design variables, configure them in the way needed\nto represent the geometry or conditions needed by the\nanalysis, and write the formatted input file for analysis. \nIn order to pass variables from the MATLAB\nenvironment to the FORTRAN pre-processing\nsubroutine, MATLABÕs mex-function was invoked. Inthis function, a standard gateway subroutine is added tothe FORTRAN pre-processing subroutine. This new\nroutine collects an array of variables passed in from\nMATLAB and assigns them to a FORTRAN array.\nThe gateway routine sends these variables into the pre-\nprocessing subroutine. \nIn MATLAB, the user compiles the FORTRAN code\nincluding the gateway routine and the pre-processing\nroutine using the mex command. This creates a mex-\nfile which is treated as a MATLAB function requiring\nan input array and an output array. The user then places\nhis variables for the pre-processing function into an\narray and puts this array into the new mex-file. This\nsends the variables to the gateway routine which\nassigns them to the variables used in the FORTRAN\npre-processing subroutine. The input file is generated\nand control returns to MATLAB.\nProgram Insertion\nHaving prepared the data for analysis by the program,\nthe programmer must locate the section of BLISS that\nhe wishes to upgrade. The previous analysis must beremoved and the code must be placed such that BLISS\nwill have performed the new analysis and have data\nready for later analysis that the user is not replacing. Having located the desired calling spot and removed the\nreplaced analysis, the user simply calls the program\nfrom within BLISS. By previously compiling the\nFORTRAN code in question, the user calls the program\nby typing !program_name in the BLISS code where\nprogram_name is the command that runs the program\nfrom the operating system. The program then processesthe prepared input file and returns to BLISS.\nData Collection\nThe final step that the programmer must perform in\norder for BLISS to carry on its optimization is\nharvesting the data produced by the new program.\nELAPS and AWAVE both created output files with\ndata required for BLISS. There are two basic ways to\ncollect data produced by FORTRAN codes.\nThe first way is to use a post-processing technique\nsimilar to that of pre-processing. The user would create\na search algorithm to locate and collect the data from\nthe output file. This in turn would be harvested by\nusing the mex-function to create a gateway between the\nFORTRAN data collection routine and the BLISS\nvariables. The programmer would compile the mex-\nfunction gateway routine combined with his data\ncollection routine, run the new mex-file with an array\nprepared to collect the output of the routine, and extract\nhis data to the array. The programmer would then need\nto assign the array variables to the proper variables in\nthe BLISS code. This technique would be best for\ncases where the user did not have access to the source\ncode of the FORTRAN program.\nIn cases where the programmer does have the\nFORTRAN programÕs source code and a fair knowledgeof how the program works, he can edit the code to\noutput the needed results in a format compatible with\nMATLAB. If the user can locate the sections of code\nthat write out the results to the output file, they canchange the code to output to a file with a .m extension.Files in this format are recognized as MATLAB\nprograms that can be called without FORTRAN\ninteraction. By creating .m files with MATLAB\nvariable assignments corresponding to the data that theuser wishes to collect, the programmer simply runs\nthese MATLAB files after completion of the main\nprogram call and the output is already in MATLAB\nformat. This avoids unnecessary data file searching andreduces MATLAB-FORTRAN interaction. After the\ndata are collected and assigned to the proper variables inBLISS, the analysis would then continue as normal." }

Lacey, currently the technical\ndirector of the Naval Surface Warfare Center of the Naval Sea Systems Command, and\nformerly the Executive Director of the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Indian Head, Maryland,\nDivision, has been appointed as the program executive officer for the National Security\nPersonnel System (NSPS) by Secretary of the Navy Gordon England. \n \n\"Secretary England made an outstanding choice today in appointing Mary Lacey as one of his\ntop advisors and head of the NSPS Program Executive Office. As a personal friend, I have long\nwitnessed Mary's impressive leadership ability and unmatched expertise in her field. I am\nespecially grateful for her tremendous contributions to our region through her work at Indian\nHead and NAVSEA. \n \n\"Mary will unquestionably be missed by the men and women who served with her at Indian\nHead and the thousands of civilian employees who have benefited from her work on their\nbehalf. Mary is currently manages over 16,000 employees - more than 9,000 of whom are\ncurrently in one of the Department of Defense's personnel demonstration projects. \n \n\"I have no doubt that in her new position, she will be able to use her substantial experience and\nvaluable insight to ensure that our robust civilian workforce has the tools and resources they\nneed to continue the important work they are doing to protect our nation. \n \n\"We are very fortunate to have a native Marylander assuming this important post that will have\na major impact on the lives of the federal employees living in Southern Maryland. I am grateful\nthat Secretary England has recognized what an asset Mary is to our federal civilian workforce\nand look forward to continuing to work closely with her when she assumes her new position.\" \n \n# # # \n \n \n 1 / 1" }

It provides information to the public on student \nperformance and other measures of school and dist rict performance. Know ledge gained from the \nschool report card on a sc hool’s strengths and weaknesses can be used to improve instruction and \nservices to students. \nThe New York State School Report Card consists of three parts: the Overview of School \nPerformance in English Language Ar ts, Mathematics, and Science and Analysis of Student \nSubgroup Performance, the Comprehensive Information Report, and the School Accountability \nReport . The Overview and Analysis presents performance data on measures required by the \nfederal No Child Left Behind Act: English, mathematics, science, and graduation rate. \nPerformance data on other State assessments can be found in the Comprehensive Information \nReport . The School Accountability Report provides information as to whether a school is making \nadequate progress toward enab ling all students to achieve proficiency in English and \nmathematics. \nState assessments are designed to help en sure that all students reach high learning \nstandards. They show whether students are getting the foundation know ledge they need to \nsucceed at the elementary, middle, and commen cement levels and beyond. The State requires \nthat students who are not making appropriate pr ogress toward the standards receive academic \nintervention services. \nIn the Overview , performance on the elementary- and middle-level assessments in \nEnglish language arts and mathem atics and on the middle-level science test is reported in terms \nof mean scores and the percentage of students sc oring at each of the four levels. These levels \nindicate performance on the standards from se riously deficient to advanced proficiency. \nPerformance on the elementary-level science test is reported in terms of mean scores and the \npercentage of students making a ppropriate progress. Regents examination scores are reported in \nfour score ranges. Scores of 65 to 100 are passing; scores of 55 to 64 earn credit toward a local \ndiploma (with the approval of the local board of education). Though each elementary- and \nmiddle-level assessment is administered to st udents in a specific gr ade, secondary-level \nassessments are taken by students when they comp lete the coursework for the core curriculum. \nTherefore, the performance of students at the se condary level is measured for a student cohort \nrather than a group of students at a particular grade level. Students are grouped in cohorts \naccording to the year in which they first entered grade 9. \nThe assessment data in the Overview and Analysis are for all tested students in the school, \nincluding general-education students a nd students with disabilities. In the Overview , each \nschool’s performance is compared with that of school s similar in grade level, district resources, \nand student needs as indicated by income and limited English proficiency (LEP) status. Each \ndistrict’s performance is compared w ith that of all public schools statewide. In the Analysis , \nperformance is disaggregated by race/ethnicity, di sability status, gender, LEP status, income \nlevel, and migrant status. \nExplanations of terms referred to or symbols used in this part of the school report card \nmay be found in the glossary on the last page. Further information on th e school report card may \nbe found in the guide, Understanding Your School Report Card: February 2004 , available on the \nInformation and Reporting Services Web site at www.emsc.nysed.gov/irts. \n 44-21-01-06-0003 March 19, 2004 \nWarwick Valley Middle School \n 4Overview of School Performance \nin English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science \n \nSchool Profile \n \nPrincipal: Ann Val Phone: (845)987-3100 \nGrade Range Student Enrollment Organization \n2002–03 6-8 1155 \n \n \n2001–02 School District-wide To tal Expenditure per Pupil $11,207 \n \n \nSimilar \nSchools \nGroup This school is in Similar Schools Group 31.

Similarly, students from low-\nincome families have not performed as well as those fr om higher income families. A high priority of the \nBoard of Regents is to eliminate these gaps in student performance. In addition, Title I of the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act includes explicit requirements “to ensure that students served by Title I are given the same opportunity to achieve to high standards and are held to the same high expectations as all students in each State.” \n \nThis section of the school report card provides performance data for two years by racial/ethnic \ngroup, disability status, gender, English proficiency status, income level, and migrant status. The purpose of the student subgroup analyses is to deter mine if students who perform below the standards \nin any school tend to fall into particular groups, such as minority students, limited English proficient students, or economically disadvantaged students. If thes e analyses provide evidence that students in \none of the groups achieve at a lower level than other students, the school and community should \nexamine the reasons for this lower performance and make necessary changes in curriculum, instruction, and student support services to remedy these performance gaps. If your school did not \nreport data for the 2002-03 school year for a subject and grade, a table showing data for subgroups in that subject and grade will not be included in the Analysis . 44-21-01-06-0003 March 19, 2004 \nWarwick Valley Middle School \n 9Middle Level \nEnglish Language Arts \n2001–02 2002–03 \nPercentages of Tested \nStudents Scoring at Levels Percentages of Tested \nStudents Scoring at Levels Student Subgroup Tested \n2–4 3–4 4 Tested \n2–4 3–4 4 \nResults by Race/Ethnicity \nAmerican Indian/Alaskan Native 0 0% 0% 0% 0 0% 0% 0% \nBlack 9 s s s 15 s s s \nHispanic 3 s s s 18 94% 50% 0% \nAsian or Pacific Islander 0 0% 0% 0% 1 s s s \nWhite 337 99% 78% 33% 381 98% 75% 19% \nTotal 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nSmall Group Totals (s) 12 83% 33% 0% 16 88% 25% 6% \nResults by Disability Status \nGeneral-education students 316 100% 82% 35% 373 100% 78% 19% \nStudents with disabilities 33 91% 21% 0% 42 76% 14% 0% \nTotal 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nResults by Gender \nFemale 175 99% 78% 34% 200 98% 80% 24% \nMale 174 99% 75% 30% 215 97% 64% 11% \nTotal 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nResults by English Proficiency Status \nEnglish proficient 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nLimited English proficient 0 0% 0% 0% 0 0% 0% 0% \nTotal 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nResults by Income Level \nEconomically disadvantaged 20 90% 45% 5% 25 96% 68% 4% \nNot disadvantaged 329 99% 78% 33% 390 97% 72% 18% \nTotal 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nResults by Migrant Status \nMigrant family 0 0% 0% 0% 0 0% 0% 0% \nNot migrant family 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \nTotal 349 99% 77% 32% 415 97% 72% 17% \n 44-21-01-06-0003 March 19, 2004 \nWarwick Valley Middle School \n 10Middle Level \nMathematics \n2001–02 2002–03 \nPercentages of Tested \nStudents Scoring at Levels Percentages of Tested \nStudents Scoring at Levels Student Subgroup Tested \n2–4 3–4 4 Tested \n2–4 3–4 4 \nResults by Race/Ethnicity \nAmerican Indian/Alaskan Native 0 0% 0% 0% 0 0% 0% 0% \nBlack 9 44% 22% 0% 14 s s s \nHispanic 4 s s s 21 81% 33% 0% \nAsian or Pacific Islander 1 s s s 1 s s s \nWhite 335 93% 68% 18% 379 94% 68% 15% \nTotal 349 92% 66% 17% 415 93% 65% 13% \nSmall Group Totals (s) 5 80% 40% 0% 15 73% 33% 0% \nResults by Disability Status \nGeneral-education students 317 97% 72% 19% 371 98% 71% 15% \nStudents with disabilities 32 38% 6% 0% 44 48% 16% 0% \nTotal 349 92% 66% 17% 415 93% 65% 13% \nResults by Gender \nFemale 175 92% 69% 15% 200 96% 68% 14% \nMale 174 91% 64% 20% 215 90% 63% 13% \nTotal 349 92% 66% 17% 415 93% 65% 13% \nResults by English Proficiency Status \nEnglish proficient 348 s s s 414 s s s \nLimited English proficient 1 s s s 1 s s s \nTotal 349 92% 66% 17% 415 93% 65% 13% \nResults by Income Level \nEconomically disadvantaged 19 74% 16% 5% 26 77% 42% 0% \nNot disadvantaged 330 93% 69% 18% 389 94% 67% 14% \nTotal 349 92% 66% 17% 415 93% 65% 13% \nResults by Migrant Status \nMigrant family 1 s s s 0 0% 0% 0% \nNot migrant family 348 s s s 415 93% 65% 13% \nTotal 349 92% 66% 17% 415 93% 65% 13% \n 44-21-01-06-0003 March 19, 2004 \nWarwick Valley Middle School \n 11Middle Level \nScience \n2001–02 2002–03 \nPercentages of Tested \nStudents Scoring at Levels Percentages of Tested \nStudents Scoring at Levels Student Subgroup Tested \n2–4 3–4 4 Tested \n2–4 3–4 4 \nResults by Race/Ethnicity \nAmerican Indian/Alaskan Native 0 0% 0% 0% 0 0% 0% 0% \nBlack 8 100% 50% 13% 12 s s s \nHispanic 4 s s s 19 100% 68% 11% \nAsian or Pacific Islander 1 s s s 1 s s s \nWhite 326 99% 96% 59% 361 99% 95% 50% \nTotal 339 99% 95% 58% 393 99% 93% 47% \nSmall Group Totals (s) 5 100% 80% 60% 13 100% 54% 15% \nResults by Disability Status \nGeneral-education students 309 100% 98% 63% 354 100% 96% 51% \nStudents with disabilities 30 93% 63% 10% 39 95% 64% 10% \nTotal 339 99% 95% 58% 393 99% 93% 47% \nResults by Gender \nFemale 169 99% 95% 55% 187 99% 92% 44% \nMale 170 99% 94% 61% 206 100% 93% 50% \nTotal 339 99% 95% 58% 393 99% 93% 47% \nResults by English Proficiency Status \nEnglish proficient 338 s s s 393 99% 93% 47% \nLimited English proficient 1 s s s 0 0% 0% 0% \nTotal 339 99% 95% 58% 393 99% 93% 47% \nResults by Income Level \nEconomically disadvantaged 16 88% 81% 31% 23 96% 83% 13% \nNot disadvantaged 323 100% 95% 59% 370 100% 93% 49% \nTotal 339 99% 95% 58% 393 99% 93% 47% \nResults by Migrant Status \nMigrant family 1 s s s 0 0% 0% 0% \nNot migrant family 338 s s s 393 99% 93% 47% \nTotal 339 99% 95% 58% 393 99% 93% 47% \n 44-21-01-06-0003 March 19, 2004 \nWarwick Valley Middle School \n 12Glossary \n \nAccountability Cohort: An accountability cohort is all students, regardless of grade status, who were enrolled in \nschool on BEDS day two years after the year in which they entered grade 9, or, in the case of ungraded students \nwith disabilities, the year in which they reached their seventeenth birthday. (For example, the 1998 accountability cohort consists of all students who first entered grade 9 in the fall of 1998 who were enrolled on October 4, 2000). Certain students with severe disabilities, new immigrants, and students who transfer to programs leading to a high school diploma or high school equivalency diploma are not included in the school accountability cohort. Cohort is defined in Section 100.2 (p) (8) of the Commissioner’s Regulations. \n \nComponent Retests: Component retests were offered in Regents English and Mathematics A to graduating \nseniors who were at risk of not meeting the State learning standards. Component retesting is the process by which \na student who has failed a Regents examination in English or Mathematics A twice is retested only on the areas of \nthe learning standards in which the student has been proven deficient. Component retesting eliminates the need for \nthe student to retake the full Regents examination multiple times. Students who earn credit through component retesting are counted as if they scored in the 55–64 range or in the 65–84 range, as determined by the results of the component retest. \n \nCounts of Students Tested: “Counts of Students Tested” includes only students who completed sufficient test \nquestions to receive a score. \n \nGraduation-Rate Cohort: Graduation-rate cohort for each year includes all students in the accountability cohort in \nthe previous year plus all students excluded from that accountability cohort solely because they transferred to a \ngeneral education development (GED) program. \nLimited English Proficient (LEP) Students: Schools provide special English instruction to students for whom \nEnglish is a second language so they can participate effectively in the academic program. In 2002–03 and in \nprevious years, students were considered LEP if, by reason of foreign birth or ancestry, they spoke a language \nother than English and (1) either understood and spoke little or no English or (2) scored at or below the 40\nth \npercentile on an English language assessment instrument. The United States Department of Education has approved the use of the New York State English as a Second Language Achievement Test (NYSESLAT) as the required measure of language arts proficiency for LEP students in grades 4 and 8 who have attended school in the United States (not including Puerto Rico) for fewer than three consecutive years and for LEP students who have attended for four or five years and have received an exemption from the general assessment requirement. \n \nNew York State Alternate Assessment (NYSAA): The district Committee on Special Education designates \nstudents with severe disabilities who meet criteria estab lished in Commissioner’s Regulations to take the New York \nState Alternate Assessment (NYSAA). \n \nSimilar Schools: Similar schools are schools that are grouped by common district and student demographic \ncharacteristics, including grade range of students served by the school, school district financial resources, and \nneeds of the school student population. More information about similar school groups may be found on the Web at http://www.emsc.nysed.gov/repcrd2002/similar.html. \n Student Confidentiality/Suppressed Data (# and s): To ensure student confidentiality, the Department does not\n \npublish data for groups with fewer than five students or data that would allow readers to easily determine the \nperformance of a group with fewer than five students. In the Overview, the pound character (#) appears when fewer \nthan five students in a group were tested. In the Analysis , when fewer than five students in a group (e.g., Hispanic) \nwere tested, percentages of tested students scoring at various levels are suppressed for that group and the next \nsmallest group. Suppressed data are indicated with an (s). However, the performance of tested students in these \ngroups is aggregated and shown in the Small Group Total row. \n \nValidity and Reliability of Small Group Data: It is important that programmatic decisions are based on valid and \nreliable data. Data for fewer than 30 students in a group may be neither valid nor reliable. If a school does not have \n30 students in a grade or a subgroup in a given year, the school should evaluate results for students in this group over a period of years to make programmatic decisions. \n " }

Use the report for learning, reflection and action. \n• Build greater understanding of new approaches to professional \ndevelopment and address the ways that the school community will have to work differently to improve instruction. \n• Acknowledge and address the fact that not all current practice \nprovides adequate opportunity for the school staff to carry out the \nnew demands of their work, to analyze data and diagnose student needs, to determine the efficacy of their own practice, to align their instruction to new curriculum standards and to collaborate regularly with peers. \n \nPage 7 of 74 Introduction\n The Kentucky Department of Education conducted a scholastic review of Stuart Middle School during \nthe period of 10/26/2008 - 10/31/2008. This school's last combined accountability index was 64.8 and its \nclassification was Assistance Level 2.\n The scholastic review team activities included a review of the documents collected for the school \nportfolio and profile; classroom observations (59) and formal interviews and informal discussions with \nteachers (61), students (87), parents (24), Family Resource/Youth Services Center staff members (2), \ncentral office personnel (8), support staff members (6), assistant principal's (3), counselors (3) and the \nprincipal.\n The Standards and Indicators for School Improvement rubric was the primary assessment instrument \nused during the visit. The team also compiled results from perception surveys, leadership assessments \nand efficiency reviews. All of these results were considered in the development of this report.\n The scholastic review report was based upon examination of the documents provided in the school \nportfolio, team experiences and observations. The specific findings and recommendations are organized \nunder the headings of Academic Performance, Learning Environment and Efficiency. Each of the nine \nstandards for success in Kentucky schools is addressed in the following pages.\n The chairperson of the team was Wayne Pucke tt - District Administrator. The other team members \nwere Jesus Segundo Menendez - Parent, Cynthia Lawson - Highly Skilled Educator, Herbert D. Wheat - \nBuilding Administrator, Barbara Miller - Teacher, Nancy Gilligan - Teacher, Larry G. Frank - Building \nAdministrator, Margaret K.

The sixth grade guidance counselor works with the sixth grade students on developing th eir Individual Education Plan which \nincludes a career skills inventory. The seventh grade students have the \nopportunity to explore career options in the practical living class. Eighth grade \nstudents participate in Junior Achiev ement that addresses career related \nconsiderations like education, salary and personal finance. Teachers invite \nspeakers into their classroom and make career connections when organizing field trips.\nPage 10 of 74 Standard 1 CurriculumSummary Findings in: Academic PerformanceStuart Middle School\n10/26/2008 - 10/31/2008Jefferson County School DistrictKentucky Departme nt of Education\nScholastic Review Summary Report\n2 Performance Rating\n1.1b The district initiates and facilitates discussions among schools regarding \ncurriculum standards to ensure they are clearly articulated across all levels (P-12).\nThe district has developed a curriculu m alignment docum ent and curriculum \ninstructional frameworks P-12 which have been shared with all schools. Monthly middle school principals’ meetings focus on curriculum and \ninstructional issues. Middle school prin cipals observe the implementation of \nthe curriculum instructional frameworks in each others’ buildings and discuss \ntheir observations. The district holds two or three meetings annually for literacy leads, math leads and conten t department chairper sons at the middle \nschool level. There have been limit ed opportunities fo r discussion and \nplanning for vertical alig nment among f eeder schools.\n1.1c The district initiates and facilitates di scussions between schoo ls in the district \nin order to eliminate unnecessa ry overlaps and close gaps.\nThe district occasionally initiates and facilitates discussions between schools \nto ensure that each grade level follows the district curriculum and the \ncurriculum instructional frameworks. District leadership initiates limited \ndiscussions between school st affs concerning vertical alignment to eliminate \ngaps and overlaps in the curriculum (ele mentary to middle and middle to high \nschool).\n1.1d There is evidence of vertical communication with an intentional focus on key \ncurriculum transition points within grade configurations (e.g., from primary to \nmiddle and middle to high).\nElementary feeder schools share student needs and academic information \nwith the sixth grade guidance counselor . Key academic tran sition points are \nnot systematically addressed. Sixth graders are invited to the Stuart Middle \nSchool Spartan Academy Summer Kid Camp to aid in transition from elementary to middle school. However, only twenty-five percent of incoming \nsixth graders attend th e camp. During the camp , the Scholastic Reading \nInventory is administered to students to determine placement in reading classes. Math teachers provide mini-l essons on the use of laptops, graphing \ncalculators and manipulatives and the students become comfortable with the \nphysical layout of the school.\n1.1g The curriculum provides access to a common academic co re for all students.\nPage 11 of 74 Standard 1 CurriculumSummary Findings in: Academic PerformanceStuart Middle School\n10/26/2008 - 10/31/2008Jefferson County School DistrictKentucky Departme nt of Education\nScholastic Review Summary Report\n2 Performance Rating\nAll students have access to the common academic core; however, delivery of \nthe curriculum in some classrooms lac ks rigor and is not challenging.

District assessment checks \noccur four times througho ut the year. The school staff is involved in a \ncollaborative process to analyze th e results of open response and multiple-\nchoice assessments. Most informal or daily assessments are teacher-made \nworksheets and textbook or workbook assignments. Assessments are not \nalways rigorous and authentic. Rubrics and models of proficient work are not \nvisible in most classrooms.\n2.1b Teachers collaborate in the design of authentic assessment tasks aligned \nwith core content subject matter.\nAlthough a common planning time is provided, teachers rarely collaborate to \ndesign authentic assessments. Some assessment tasks are not designed for students to demons trate proficiency.\n2.1c Students can articulate the academic expectations in eac h class and know \nwhat is required to be proficient.\nMost students are unable to articula te the academic expectations for their \nclasses or the requirements for profic iency on an assigned task. Students are \nrarely required to evaluate their own work outside of checking seatwork or homework. Student reflection is not routinely integrated into instructional or \nassessment activities. Most teachers us e the district rubric for assessment.\n2.1d Test scores are used to identify curriculum gaps.\nDistrict leadership along with school leadership and staff analyze assessment \ndata to identify curriculum gaps. Multiple sources of data (Kentucky Core \nContent Tests, No Child Left Behi nd, and Classroom Assessment System \nand Community Access Dashboard for Education software program) are routinely collected; however, this data is not always used to inform curricular, instructional and assessment practi ces to support higher student \nachievement. Some teachers examine data outside of formal assessment \nresults and have adjusted assessments or instructional strate gies to meet the \nneeds of students identified through data analysis.\nPage 16 of 74 Standard 2 Classroom Evaluation/AssessmentSummary Findings in: Academic PerformanceStuart Middle School\n10/26/2008 - 10/31/2008Jefferson County School DistrictKentucky Departme nt of Education\nScholastic Review Summary Report\n2 Performance Rating\n2.1e Multiple assessments are specific ally designed to provide meaningful \nfeedback on student learning for instructional purposes.\nStudents are rarely provided with choice s in the ways that they demonstrate \nlearning (e.g., learning styles and multiple intelligences). Occasionally teachers formally examine classr oom assessment tasks at team and \ndepartmental meetings, bu t the process is in the beginning stages and has \nfailed to transfer into instructional modi fications. Most teac hers provide limited \nfeedback on assessments.\n2.1f Performance standards are clearly co mmunicated, evident in classrooms and \nobservable in student work.\nPerformance standards are not consis tently communicated to students. \nRubrics are provided for open resp onse questions, but are not always \nprovided for other types of assessmen t tasks. Some teachers do not use \nperformance standards to develop rubr ics. Few models of rigorous student \nwork are displayed or referenced for instructional purposes.\n2.1h Samples of student work are analyzed to inform instruction, revise curriculum \nand pedagogy, and obtain info rmation on student progress.\nTeachers analyze data from Core Co ntent Assessments during department \nmeetings but seldom analyze student wo rk. Samples of student work are \nused mainly for grading purposes and ra rely drive an initiative for revising \ninstructional practices to meet the needs of students.\nPage 17 of 74 Stuart Middle School\n10/26/2008 - 10/31/2008Jefferson County School DistrictKentucky Departme nt of Education\nScholastic Review Summary Report\nSummary of recommendations in: Academic Performance\nClassroom Evaluation/Assessment\nSchool leadership should en sure that proficient stud ent work including scoring \nrubrics is showcased and referenc ed as a part of instruction. \nCommon planning time should be used as an opportunity for collaborating on \nstudent performance issues.

Few \ndifferentiation strategies are used and those that are, do not appropriately \naddress the needs of various learning st yles and achievement gaps within the \nstudent population. Electron ic walk through data indicates that 5% of teachers \nuse differentiated instruction.\n3.1d Teachers demonstrate the content knowledge necessary to challenge and \nmotivate students to high levels of learning.\nTeachers are reported to be highly qualified.

Some teachers use \ntechnology to enhance instructional de livery. Electronic walkthrough data \nconducted by the review team members indicates that 35 percent of teachers \nused technology. Technology-based programs like Read 180 and Success \nMaker are used for remediation with some students. Technology is used infrequently by students to create pr oducts and extend their learning.\n3.1f Instructional resources (textbook, su pplemental reading, technology) are \nsufficient to effectively deliver the curriculum.\nInstructional resources, including phys ical as well as human resources, are \nplentiful. Yet, there is no overall plan within the departments or the school to \nindicate to teachers how these resource s should be used to maximize student \nlearning and support the curriculum. District resources such as resource \nteachers are infrequently used to th eir fullest potential due to a lack of \norganizational structure.\n3.1g Teachers examine and discuss student work collaboratively and use this \ninformation to inform their practice.\nTeachers work collaboratively during department meetings to analyze district \nCore Content Assessments. Collaborative analysis rarely occurs outside the \ndepartmental organizational stru cture or with teacher-generated \nassessments. Analysis informs some instructional practices to promote increased student achievement but is not uniform across the school.\nPage 20 of 74 Standard 3 InstructionSummary Findings in: Academic PerformanceStuart Middle School\n10/26/2008 - 10/31/2008Jefferson County School DistrictKentucky Departme nt of Education\nScholastic Review Summary Report\n1 Performance Rating\n3.1a There is evidence that effective and va ried instructional st rategies are used in \nall classrooms.\nThe school council has a policy on in structional practices, but the policy \ninadequately addresses the need for differentiation, multiple intelligences, and \nlearning styles.

{ "pdf_file": "O4OJHSZUX6K2VVH4VJPOFC7CMUOO5UX5.pdf", "text": "Gus Promotes Religious Freedom Worldwide\nOn Thursday, Gus addressed a forum to highlight the treatment of Coptic Christians in Egypt,\nand promote religious freedom in the Middle East and worldwide.\n \nAs a Greek Orthodox Christian, Gus has made it a feature of his service in Congress to be a\nvoice for all religious minorities wherever they may be persecuted in the world. He led an effort\nin 2011 to prevent the Egyptian military from using U.S. taxpayer dollars to persecute and attack\nthousands of Coptic Christians and other religious minorities.\n \nWatch Gus' speech here:\n \n \nRemarks as prepared for delivery:\n \nGood morning and thank you for allowing me to speak. Before I begin, I want to take a moment\nto remember His Holiness Pope Shenouda. He was instrumental in the search for mutual\nunderstanding among the world's religions. I express my deepest condolences for your loss and\npray that a worthy successor will arise – a successor who will protect the oldest Christians in the\nMiddle East and prevent the persecution of religious minorities.\n \nAs you know I have worked to condemn violations of religious freedom throughout the world. As\na member of the Subcommittee on the Middle East and the International Religious Freedom\nCaucus, I am alarmed especially at the dwindling number of Christians in the Middle East. A\ngood friend of mine, Caroline Glick, wrote in the Jerusalem Post a column on this very issue.\nShe noted that in Turkey, the Christian population has dwindled from 2 million at the end of\nWorld War I to less than 100,000 today.\n \nAnd, there are only about 1,200 Greek Orthodox Christians left in Constantinople – a place that\nrefuses to recognize the Ecumenical nature of our Patriarch Bartholomew. Additionally the\nTheological School at Halki – a seminary to train Orthodox clergy - has been shut down for over\n 1 / 3 Gus Promotes Religious Freedom Worldwide\n40 years. This is unacceptable behavior by the Turkish government.\n \nIn Iraq a decade ago there were 800,000 Christians - today there are 150,000. In Iran prior to\nthe Islamic revolution, Iran's Christians were more or less free to practice their religion - today\nthey are executed. In Syria, four decades ago, Christians made up nearly half of the population.\n \nToday 4% of Syrians are Christian and they are suffering currently during tragic times over\nthere. Please include them in your prayers. In Jordan, half a century ago, 18% of the population\nwas Christian. Today 2% of Jordanians are Christian. And, of course, we all know of the horrible\nmassacre and persecution of Egyptian Copts. I am sure you have seen it time again, just like I\nhave, the massacre of Christians in Tahrir Square and Maspero, as well as during holy events\nsuch as Christmas Eve mass.\n \nThat is why organizations like Coptic Solidarity are so important to remind the world that as we\nspeak here today, Christians in the Middle East are dying or being displaced. We must hold\nMiddle Eastern governments accountable. The right to worship must be protected in the Middle\nEast, starting with Egypt, in order for a free and democratic society to flourish.\n \nAnd Egypt must know that the United States strongly supports the safety of religious minorities.\nLast year I called for conditions to be placed on the $1.3 billion in annual aid that we provide\nEgypt. This money has been used by the Egyptian military to persecute and attack Coptic\nChristians and other religious minorities and this is unacceptable. I will continue to call for these\nconditions as long as the rights of minorities in Egypt are ignored. Egypt's new president and\nnew parliament must understand that the US is watching their actions and we will not turn a\nblind eye to the persecution of religious minorities. We will also be watching as the Constitution\nis written. I have expressed my support in the past for the proposed Bill of Rights that would\ncement the rights of religious minorities in Egypt and I express it here again today. And I\npromise that I will remain vigilant to the plight of the Coptic Christians as Egypt continues its\ntransition.\n \nMoving forward, we must continue to work together to support the freedom of religion and\nexpression for all of Egypt. As I am sure you know, the spokesman to the newly elected\nEgyptian president said that President Morsi would appoint a woman and a Coptic Christian to\nbe his co-vice presidents, a first in Egyptian history. Whether this will take place is yet to be\nseen, but it does remind us that we must never lose hope that one day Coptic Christians will\nenjoy equal citizenship in their native country of Egypt.\n 2 / 3 Gus Promotes Religious Freedom Worldwide\n \n 3 / 3" }

Sam Farr this summer championed efforts in the House of\nRepresentatives to significantly boost federal funding for food safety research and oversight\nefforts. \n \n House versions of the farm bill and the annual agriculture appropriations bill include $60 million\nin new money to support work in those areas. Funds would augment the Department of\nAgriculture's food safety research capacity, increase the federal government's commitment to\nfund university and other non-federal research and enhance the Food and Drug Administration's\nfood safety oversight role. \n \n &quot;During last year's spinach recall, the nation felt the sting of what happens when our food\nsafeguards fail,&quot; said Rep. Farr (D-Carmel). &quot;Federal, state and local officials are\ndoing everything they can to prevent another outbreak, and these funds will help them in their\nefforts. The Central Coast, with its billions of dollars in farm sales, is Ground Zero in the work to\nkeep our food safe, and I look forward to pursuing every opportunity to support our farmers and\nkeep our nation healthy.&quot; \n \n The programs: \n \n Farm Bill: $25 million for fresh produce safety grants. At Rep. Farr's request and with support\nfrom Rep. Dennis Cardoza (D-Atwater) and other California agriculture advocates, the House of\nRepresentatives on July 27 included these funds for food safety research in its version of the\nfarm bill, which is reauthorized every five years. \n \n These competitive grants will be managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and will be\nawarded to national laboratories, universities, state agricultural stations and other research\norganizations. This funding is an automatic $5 million per year in new research funds and won't\nneed to be approved through the annual funding process. \n \n Agriculture Appropriations: $35 million to overhaul FDA's food safety operations. The House\napproved funds in its annual appropriations process for the USDA and FDA to plan for and\nbegin work on a comprehensive overhaul of FDA's food safety operations. The bill also\n 1 / 2 August 14, 2007 - Farr Leads Charge for Federal Food Safety Support\nrecommends implementation of enforceable safety standards such as the Hazard Analysis and\nCritical Control Point, known as HACCP, a food industry control system. In addition to domestic\nfood safety, the FDA is also responsible for overseeing the safety of imported foods, lately a\nlightning rod for criticism. \n \n &quot;In the past several years, USDA researchers have pursued innovative research\nprograms. Unfortunately, these programs lack funds to pursue research on the scale\nnecessary,&quot; said Rep. Farr. &quot;Produce industry leaders have told me again and again\nthat food safety research should be a top federal priority. I'm glad the House has recognized\nthis and I look forward to success in the Senate.&quot; \n \n Both the farm bill and the Agriculture Appropriations bill must go through the Senate and be\nsigned by the president. Increased attention to food safety suggests that any versions of these\nbills would include increased funding for oversight and research. Heightened attention to\nimports, especially from China, will also lend pressure for federal action. \n \n # # # \n \n 2 / 2" }

In addition, following \nthese guidelines will help ensure that agency and applic ant users of AT will be \nable to use the system in the most equitable manner possible. \nLoad Testing \nLoad testing is not permitted in the AT environment. The AT system is not built to \nhandle the volume of applications that pr oduction does. Please keep your daily \nnumber of submissions to a “reasonable” limited number that are of average-\nsized applications. \nPeak Usage Time \nPeak usage times of AT tend to be from Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. \nto 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Delays in processing times and unexpected \ndowntimes are more likely to occur during these times. Please plan your testing \naccordingly. \nReport a Potential Issue \nTo report a potential issues with A cceptance Testing environment, please \nsend an email to the Grants. gov Contact Center at support@grants.gov or call \n1-800-518-4726 and include the following information to expedite the \ninvestigation and resolution of the issue: \n• Description of issue \n• Tracking numbers \n• Opportunity numbers \n• Time issue occurred or was noticed \nPage 2 of 2 \n \n ACCEPTANCE TESTING (AT) \nTEST SITE GUIDELINES \n• Contact name, em ail, and phone number \n• Error messages or other informati on that might be helpful to the \nGrants.gov team in tro ubleshooting the issue \nAnnouncement of New System Builds \nGrants.gov will publish information about new system builds on AT in advance. \nHowever, please be aware that Grants. gov may need to deploy changes to the \nAT environment at any time, and this may result in unexpected downtimes or \ntemporary outages of ce rtain functionality. \nAdvance Notice \nPlease inform Grants.gov two-weeks in advance when you are planning to use \nthe AT system heavily for any extended per iod of time or when you are under a \ntight deadline. \nRestrictions of Use \nAs the use of AT grows, Grants.gov may fi nd it necessary to restrict the use of \nAT and schedule the use of AT by agencie s and applicants. However, to date, \nwe have had a great deal of cooperat ion regarding the use of the testing \ncompleted by both the applicant and agency community on AT. We wish for this \ntype of cooperation to continue so t hat everyone can take advantage of this \ntesting environment without Grants.gov placi ng restrictions on its use. Please be \nconsiderate of your fellow testers. \n \nBe advised that the production system is always the top priority for Grants.gov \nsupport. The Grants.gov team will handle issue reports in AT in a lower \npriority to those in production. Testi ng of any sort (i.e. application package \nsubmission) within the live Production environm ent is strictly prohibited. All S2S \nprivileges will be revoked for any certif icate associated with a test application \npackage in the Production environment. All testing for Grants.gov must be \ncompleted in the AT environment. \n " }
