260 through 266, 268, and 270], and as specified in this Permit.
Applicable state regulations are those which are in effect on the date of final administrative disposition of this Permit and any self-implementing statutory provisions and related regulations which, according to the requirements of the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA), are automatically applicable to the Permittee’s hazardous waste management activities, notwithstanding the conditions of this Permit.
This Permit is based upon the administrative record, as required by IDAPA 58.01.05.013 [40 CFR § 124.9]. The Permittee’s failure, in the application or during the permit issuance process, to fully disclose all relevant facts, or the Permittee’s misrepresentation of any relevant facts, at anytime, shall be grounds for the termination or modification of this Permit and/or initiation of an enforcement action, including criminal proceedings. To the extent there are inconsistencies between the Permit and the attachments the language of the permit shall prevail. The Permittee must inform the Director of the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (hereinafter referred to as “Director”) of any deviation from the permit conditions or changes in the information on which the application is based, which would affect the Permittee’s ability to comply or actual compliance with the applicable regulations or permit conditions, or which alters any permit condition in any way. The Director shall enforce all conditions of this Permit, which are designated in this Permit as state requirements. Any challenges of any permit condition that concern requirements shall be appealed to the Board of Environmental Quality, in accordance with IDAPA 58.01.05.996 and the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality Rules and Regulations 58.05.03.000 et seq., “Rules Governing Contested Cases and Declaratory Rulings.”
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shall maintain an oversight role of the state- authorized program and in such capacity, shall enforce any permit condition based on state requirements if, in the EPA’s judgment, the Director should fail to enforce that permit condition. Any challenges to the EPA-enforced conditions shall be appealed to the EPA, in accordance with 40 CFR § 124.19.
This Permit is effective as of April 27, 2009 and shall remain in effect until April 26, 2019 unless, in accordance with IDAPA 58.01.05.012, the Permit is revoked and reissued [40 CFR § 270.41], modified [40 CFR § 270.42, Appendix I.A.6], terminated [40 CFR § 270.43], or continued [40 CFR § 270.51].

II.L. AIR EMISSION STANDARDS FOR PROCESS VENTS
II.L.1. The CPP-666 Sodium Distillation System (SDS) is located in Room SB-8. The SDS off-gas is vented to the FDP Cell, through the FDP Cell Off-Gas and CPP-666 HEPA filters, and discharged to the CPP-666 stack through a process vent, therefore, IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR § 264.1031] is applicable.
II.L.2. The Permittee shall determine the applicability of IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR Part 264 Subpart AA] by documenting the total organic concentration in all feed sources to the SDS.
II.L.2.a. If the SDS manages only mixed hazardous waste with total organic concentrations less than 10 ppmw, then IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR Part 264 Subpart AA] does not apply.
II.L.2.b. If the SDS manages mixed hazardous waste with total organic concentrations greater than or equal to 10 ppmw, then IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR Part 264 Subpart AA] applies.
II.L.3. The Permittee shall document compliance with the IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR Part 264 Subpart AA] standards by:
II.L.3.a. Reducing the input total organic concentrations to the SDS to less than 10 ppmw for all wastes processed; or
II.L.3.b. Reducing total organic emissions from all affected process vents at INL below 1.4 kg/h (3.0 lb/hr) and 2.8 Mg/yr (3.1 tons/yr); or
II.L.3.c. Reducing, by means of a control device, total organic emissions from all affected process vents at INL by 95 weight percent.
II.L.4. The Permittee shall record the following information in the Facility Operating Record, in accordance with IDAPA 05.01.008 [40 CFR § 264.1035]:
II.L.4.a. Up-to-date documentation of the applicability and/or compliance with the process vent standards in Permit Conditions II.N.3., including:
II.L.4.a.1. Information and data identifying all affected process vents, annual throughput and operating hours of each affected unit, estimated emission rates for each affected vent and for the overall facility [i.e., the total emissions for all affected vents at the facility, and the approximate location within the facility of each affected unit (e.g., identify the hazardous waste management units on a facility plot plan)].
II.L.4.a.2. Information and data supporting determinations of vent emissions and emission reductions achieved by add-on control devices based on engineering calculations or source tests. For the purpose of determining compliance, determinations of vent emissions and emission reductions must be made using operating parameter values (e.g., temperatures, flow rates, or vent stream organic compounds and
concentrations) that represent the conditions that result in maximum organic emissions, such as when the waste management unit is operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to occur. If any action is taken (e.g., managing a waste of different composition or increasing operating hours of affected waste management units) that would result in an increase in total organic emissions from affected process vents at the facility, then a new determination is required.
II.L.5. Records of the monitoring, operating, and inspection information, required by Permit Condition II.N.4., shall be maintained in accordance with Permit Conditions I.Z.1.c. and I.Z.2.
II.L.6. Information and data used to determine whether any other INL process vents are subject to the requirements of IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR Part 264 Subpart AA] shall be kept in the Operating Record.
II.L.6.a. The Operating Record shall be updated within thirty (30) days of a change in INL operations that potentially involve regulated process vents.
II.L.6.b. INL process vent data shall be reviewed at least annually for compliance with the IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR §§ 264.1030 and .1035].
II.L.7. The Permittee shall modify this permit as necessary to ensure compliance with Permit Condition II.N.3. whenever:
II.L.7.a. The Permittee identifies additional hazardous waste process vents; or
II.L.7.b. The Permittee determines that the SDS is subject to the requirements of IDAPA 58.01.05.008 [40 CFR Part 264 Subpart AA].

I.A. DESCRIPTION OF CURRENT SITUATION
The Permittee shall submit an update to the information describing the current situation at the Facility and the known nature and extent of the contamination as documented by the RCRA Facility Investigation Task I Report. The Permittee shall provide an update to the information presented in the Task I Report to the Director regarding previous response activities and any interim measures which have or are being implemented at the Facility. The Permittee shall also make a Facility-specific statement of the purpose for the response, based on the results of the RCRA Facility Investigation. The statement of purpose shall identify the actual or potential exposure pathways that should be addressed by corrective measures.
I.B. ESTABLISHMENT OF CORRECTIVE ACTION OBJECTIVES
The Permittee shall establish site-specific objectives for the corrective action. These objectives shall be based on public health and environmental criteria, information gathered during the RCRA Facility Investigation, EPA guidance, and the requirements of any applicable state and federal statutes. At a minimum, all corrective actions concerning groundwater releases from regulated units must be consistent with, and as stringent as, those required under the Groundwater Protection Standards.
I.C. SCREENING OF CORRECTIVE MEASURE TECHNOLOGIES
The Permittee shall review the results of the RCRA Facility Investigation to identify technologies which are appropriate for the Facility. The Permittee shall screen technologies to eliminate those which have severe limitations for a given set of waste and site-specific conditions. The screening may eliminate technologies based on inherent technology limitations. Site, waste, and technology characteristics which are used to screen inapplicable technologies are described in more detail below:
I.C.1. Site Characteristics – Site data shall be reviewed to identify conditions that may limit or promote the use of certain technologies. Technologies whose use is clearly precluded by site characteristics shall be eliminated from further consideration.
I.C.2. Waste Characteristics – Identification of waste characteristics that limit the effectiveness or feasibility of technologies is an important part of the screening process. Technologies clearly limited by these waste characteristics shall be eliminated from consideration. Waste characteristics particularly affect the feasibility of in-situ methods, direct treatment methods, and land disposal (on/off-site).
I.C.3. Technology Limitations – During the screening process, the level of technology development, performance record, and inherent construction, operation, and
maintenance problems shall be identified for each technology considered. Technologies that are unreliable, perform poorly, or are not fully demonstrated may be eliminated in the screening process. For example, certain treatment methods have been developed to a point where they can be implemented in the field without extensive technology transfer or development.
I.D. IDENTIFICATION OF CORRECTIVE MEASURE ALTERNATIVES
The Permittee shall develop the corrective measure alternatives based on the corrective action objectives. The Permittee shall rely on engineering practice to determine which technologies appear most suitable for the site. Technologies can be combined to form the overall corrective action alternative or alternatives. The alternative developed should represent a workable number of option(s) that each appear to adequately address all site problems and corrective action objectives. Each alternative may consist of an individual technology or a combination of technologies. The Permittee shall document the reasons for excluding any technologies.
TASK II: EVALUATION OF THE CORRECTIVE MEASURE ALTERNATIVES
The Permittee shall describe each corrective measure alternative that passes the screening in Task I and evaluate each corrective measure alternative and its components.

II.A.1.c. The Permittee shall describe the implementation of each corrective measure including the relative ease of installation (constructability) and the time required to achieve a given level of response:
II.A.1.d. The Permittee shall evaluate each corrective measure alternative with regard to safety. This evaluation shall include threats to the safety of nearby communities and environments as well as those to workers during implementation. Factors to consider are fire, explosion, and exposure to hazardous substances.
II.A.2. Environmental – The Permittee shall perform an Environmental Assessment for each alternative. The Environmental Assessment shall focus on the Facility conditions and pathways of contamination addressed by each alternative. The Environmental Assessment for each alternative shall include, at a minimum, an evaluation of: the short- and long-term beneficial and adverse effects of the response alternative; and adverse effects on environmentally sensitive areas; and an analysis of measures to mitigate adverse effects.
II.A.3. Human Health – The Permittee shall assess each alternative in terms of the extent to which it mitigates short- and long-term potential exposure to any residual contamination and protects human health both during and after implementing the
corrective measures. The assessment shall describe the types and levels of contaminants on-site, potential exposure routes, and potentially affected populations. Each alternative shall be evaluated to determine the level of exposure to contaminants and the reduction over time.
For management of mitigation measures, the relative reduction of impact shall be determined by comparing residual levels of each alternative with existing criteria, standards, or guidelines acceptable to the Director.
II.A.4. Institutional – The Permittee shall assess the effects of federal, state and local environmental and public health standards, regulations, guidance, advisories, ordinances, or community relations on the design, operation, and timing of each alternative.
II.B. COST ESTIMATE
The Permittee shall develop an estimate of the cost of each corrective measure alternative (and for each phase or segment of the alternative). The cost estimate shall include both capital and operation and maintenance costs.
II.B.1. Capital costs consist of direct (construction) and indirect (non-construction and overhead) costs.
II.B.1.a. Direct capital costs include:
II.B.1.b. Indirect capital costs include:
II.B.2. Operation and maintenance costs are post-construction costs necessary to ensure continued effectiveness of a corrective measure. The Permittee shall consider the following operation and maintenance cost components:
II.B.2.a. Operating labor costs: Wages, salaries, training, overhead, and fringe benefits associated with the labor needed for post-construction operations;

1 B. FACILITY DESCRIPTION
2 B-1 Facility Description [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(1)]
3 The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is owned by the U.S. Department of Energy
4 (DOE). The DOE facilities located at the INL are operated by multiple contractors designated
5 by the DOE. Exhibit B-1 is a map of the INL that identifies the locations of the major facility
6 areas.
7 The Radioactive Waste Management Complex (RWMC) is a restricted area of 166
8 acres located in the southwestern corner of the INL. Exhibit B-1 of this Attachment shows the
9 location of the RWMC at the INL. The RWMC provides facilities for the management of
10 radioactive only wastes, mixed wastes (MW), and Comprehensive Environmental Response
11 Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) waste. Radioactive only wastes contain
12 radioactive materials as defined by the Atomic Energy Act (AEA). Radioactive only wastes
13 are not regulated as hazardous or mixed waste by the Idaho Hazardous Waste Management
14 Act (HWMA) or by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). MW is waste
15 that is radioactive as defined by the AEA and hazardous as defined by IDAPA 58.01.05.005
16 (40 CFR 261). MW stored in the RWMC permitted units is not regulated under the
17 HWMA/RCRA, Subpart CC – Air Emission Standards for Tanks, Surface Impoundments,
18 and Containers, as MW is exempted in 40 CFR 264.1080(b)(6) because it is stored in
19 compliance with all applicable regulations under the authority of the Atomic Energy Act and
20 the Nuclear Waste Policy Act. Some wastes stored at the RWMC are also regulated by the
21 Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). CERCLA wastes may be handled in the units
22 regulated under this permit but are not subject to the conditions of the permit and are
23 segregated from RCRA waste. Disposition of CERCLA waste is controlled through the
24 CERCLA process.

EXHIBIT B-1. Map of the INL Showing Major Facility Areas.
1 The RWMC comprises four major areas: the Administrative Area, the Operations
2 Area, the Subsurface Disposal Area (SDA), and the Transuranic Storage Area (TSA). These
3 areas are described below and illustrated in Exhibit B-2 of this Attachment. This Permit
4 addresses waste management units located at the SDA.
5 The Administrative Area is located in the northeast section of the RWMC and consists
6 of buildings and structures supporting administrative operations. These include office space
7 and change rooms for workers and the security gate. It occupies approximately 3 acres of the
8 RWMC and contains no waste management units.
9 The Operations Area is located in the northeast section of the RWMC adjacent to the
10 Administrative Area and consists of buildings and structures supporting operations. These
11 include office space, the fire and domestic water supply, and equipment storage and
12 maintenance areas. It occupies approximately 8 acres of the RWMC and contains a waste
13 storage area within and adjacent to WMF-602. The Operations Area also contains Satellite
14 Accumulation Areas (SAAs) and less than 90-day storage areas (TAAs).
15 The TSA is a fenced, 58-acre storage area located in the southeastern section of the
16 RWMC. This area is the location of the Advanced Mixed Waste Treatment Project
17 (AMWTP). The major functions of the TSA are storage, examination, certification,
18 transuranic package transporter (TRUPACT) assembly, and TRUPACT cask loading of waste
19 which is destined for shipment to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) or for treatment at an
20 on- or off-Site facility.
21 The SDA is a fenced, 97-acre, shallow-land subsurface disposal site located in the
22 western section of the RWMC. It was dedicated to the disposal of solid, low-level beta-
23 gamma radioactive waste. The SDA contains pits, trenches, soil vaults, and an asphalt pad
24 (Pad A). TRU waste disposal was discontinued in 1970. Pad A ceased operation in 1978.
25 The SDA is identified as a solid waste management unit (SWMU) under the FFA/CO for the
26 INL.
1 The primary work being conducted at the SDA consists of buried waste retrieval. This
2 effort known as the Accelerated Retrieval Project (ARP), includes retrieval, identification,
3 repackaging, and disposition of targeted transuranic waste. The waste targeted for retrieval
4 includes plutonium-contaminated filters, graphite and process sludge, oxidized (depleted)
5 uranium, and solvent wastes. The material originated at the Rocky Flats Plant near Denver,
6 Colorado, during nuclear weapons production in the 1950s and 1960s.
7 In addition, the WMF-1617 is used to repackage drummed waste from AMWTP for
8 absorption of liquids, removal/treatment of prohibited items, and visual verification to meet
9 acceptance criteria at the WIPP, also known as the Sludge Repackage Project (SRP). The
10 WMF-1619 is used to repackage boxes with large debris items from AMWTP, also known as
11 the Debris Repackage Project (DRP). Additionally, WMF-1619 is used to repackage SRP
12 drummed waste from AMWTP for absorption of liquids, removal/treatment of prohibited
13 items, and visual verification to meet acceptance criteria at the WIPP.
14 HWMA/RCRA regulated units at the SDA consist of Building WMF-698 which is
15 regulated under HWMA/RCRA as a container storage unit, Building WMF-1617 which is
16 regulated under HWMA/RCRA for container storage, miscellaneous treatment, and
17 miscellaneous storage, and WMF-1619 which is regulated under HWMA/RCRA for container
18 storage, miscellaneous treatment and miscellaneous storage. Five outdoor trailer container
19 storage areas are located near the treatment and storage units for storage of waste pending
20 return to AMWTP or shipment off-site. Cargo containers and boxes are stored outside near
21 WMF-1617 to support interim storage of non-liquid secondary waste streams that are shipped
22 off-site for disposal. At Outside Storage Area (OSA) located south-east WMF-1619, one
23 cargo container and 3 trailers are used for storage. Additionally, at the OSA located north of
24 WMF-1619, sixteen (90 cubic foot) boxes are used for storage. The WMF-1619 OSAs are
25 necessary to support interim storage of non-liquid secondary waste streams that are shipped
26 off-site for disposal and to support storage of waste that has been repackaged (treated/solid
27 waste) for return to AMWTP.
28 The physical conditions around these buildings are typical for the INL Site,
29 approximately 5,000 ft above mean sea level, as shown on the topographical map,
30 Exhibit B-3. The area is relatively flat and receives little rainfall. However, poor drainage
31 patterns can produce localized flooding that consists of shallow puddles that form near
32 buildings during periods of rapid snowmelt or heavy rainfall. Due to the lack of rainfall and
33 the poor quality of the surface soils, the site has little agricultural value. Wind patterns are
1 generally in a northeast/southwest axis, with some seasonal variability.
2 Exhibit B-4 shows the surface water drainage at the RWMC. There is no sanitary
3 waste system piping within the SDA. Comfort stations are provided for personnel working in
4 that area. There are no recreational areas present on or adjacent to the RWMC.

EXHIBIT B-2. RWMC Area Map

1 RWMC Waste Handling Operations
2 Waste is received at the RWMC SDA from the AMWTP. Shipment of the waste to the
3 RWMC SDA is the responsibility of the AMWTP. All waste must be packaged by the generator
4 according to INL waste packaging requirements. Shipments must be approved by the RWMC
5 prior to shipment to the RWMC SDA. All waste received at the RWMC must meet the
6 applicable waste acceptance criteria contained in Attachment 1, Section D-1a(2) and Attachment
7 2, Section C.
8 Waste is received from the AMWTP and transferred to appropriate storage at WMF-698,
9 WMF-1617 or WMF-1619. WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 provide areas for sorting and
10 segregating waste, repackaging waste, mechanical processing (drum compacting) and
11 performing absorbent addition. Trailer loading and unloading operations are completed at
12 WMF-698, WMF-1617 and WMF-1619. Containers will remain on the transport trailers for no
13 more than 24 hours at any given time during unloading operations.
14 Because the HWMA/RCRA-regulated wastes managed at the SDA are MW, references
15 to radiological and radiochemical data are made throughout this Permit. Information on
16 radiological and radiochemical characteristics is provided for informational purposes only, as
17 HWMA/RCRA applies only to the chemical constituents of the MW. TSCA-regulated wastes
18 and CERCLA waste stored at the TSA are not addressed in this Permit as they are not subject to
19 HWMA/RCRA regulation.
20 WMF-698
21 Storage Enclosure Building WMF-698 is an existing building that was established to
22 store CERCLA generated waste from the ongoing ARP operations. WMF-698 is a tension-
23 membrane building, measuring 130 ft x 160 ft with a 20-ft-minimum interior clearance at the
24 eaves. The building is located at the RWMC SDA, north of Pit 4 between Pad A and Pit 3.
25 Exhibit B-5 presents a cutaway view of Building WMF-698.
26 WMF-698 is constructed of a prefabricated steel frame covered with an outer fabric
27 membrane. The fabric membrane meets NFPA 701 standards for fire resistance. The membrane
28 meets the flame-resistant requirements of the IBC. The structural frame is designed to support
29 seismic, snow, and wind loads in accordance with the applicable loading requirements. An
30 anchoring system is provided to resist the horizontal or uplift forces imposed by seismic and
1 wind loads. The perimeter foundation frame sits on existing grade, leveled to obtain a weather
2 seal. The interior floor consists of a concrete slab. Secondary containment within WMF-698 is
3 provided by drum storage secondary containment pans. The 4’-2” by 8’-2” by 7” pan is
4 constructed of 1/8” carbon steel, all corners and seams are seal welded. A support grate to
5 elevate the drums is also included. The capacity of the drum storage secondary containment pans
6 is 149 gallons, which provides adequate capacity for the storage of sixteen drums (2-wide, 2-
7 high, 4-long). A metal warming hut is located inside the east entrance of WMF-698. The hut
8 contains an electric heater that provides personnel working in the area a location to warm up.
9 Mechanical and electrical equipment supporting WMF-698 may be housed external to the
10 enclosure. Drawings for WMF-698 are located in Book 3B, Appendix 1 of this Permit.
11 Ventilation for WMF-698 is provided by a draw-through system to prevent the
12 accumulation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Dust filters are installed at various
13 locations in the walls to filter the air drawn into the enclosure. The exhaust is not filtered.
14 Traditional fixed lighting is installed to provide adequate illumination for operations such
15 as waste container transport, storage, and inspection. The lighting is fastened to the metal
16 framework or located on stands. The lighting is supplied with flexible cable. A limited number of
17 receptacles are positioned within WMF-698 to support operations and maintenance activities.
18 Emergency lighting is provided as required by NFPA 101.
19 Electrical power is supplied from a pad-mounted transformer at the northeast corner of
20 the SDA. This transformer supports lighting, ventilation, and a limited number of receptacles that
21 are positioned within the enclosure to support operations and maintenance. Lightning protection
22 meets the applicable provisions of NFPA 780.

1 WMF-1617
2 Building WMF-1617 is an existing building that was established to excavate and
3 repackage CERCLA generated waste as part of the ARP operations. WMF-1617 is a tension-
4 membrane building (referred to as a Retrieval Enclosure) that covers the exhumation footprint in
5 Pit 9. This enclosure measures approximately 380 ft x 165 ft and 53 ft in height at the tallest
6 point. WMF-1617 housed the excavation, waste retrieval, waste packaging, sampling,
7 decontamination, vehicle service, and personnel ingress/egress for the remediation of Pit 9 under
8 CERCLA. Exhibits B-6 and B-7 provide schematics of WMF-1617. WMF-1617 has an
9 attached air lock (Airlock 5) that is used for drum packaging and container storage, and a
10 service-bay to support drum compacting, equipment maintenance, and radiological control
11 support areas.
12 The Retrieval Enclosure provides weather protection for year-round operations. The
13 physical boundary of the fabric structure affords a barrier to the spread of radioactive
14 contamination. The Retrieval Enclosures have sufficient space and interior height to house
15 excavator operations and waste container movements.
16 The Retrieval Enclosure includes the following systems: structure frame; membrane
17 covering (with inner and outer fabric enclosing an insulating layer); exhaust ventilation
18 (including area-based emissions monitoring, high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, and
19 supporting electrical systems); propane heating system (and associated piping and equipment);
20 and a fire detection and alarm system.
21 The fabric membrane is insulated and meets National Fire Protection Association
22 (NFPA) 701 standards for fire resistance. The membrane material for the Retrieval Enclosure
23 structure is a polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-impregnated textile. The PVC is formulated with
24 flame-resistant compounds. The fabric material meets applicable International Building Code
25 (IBC) flame-spread performance criteria for a limited combustible material.
26 WMF-1617 has steel trusses that attach to a cast-in place foundation and utilizes piles
27 driven to bedrock to stabilize the foundation. WMF-1617 is designed to withstand seismic,
28 snow, and wind loads in accordance with the applicable requirements. Drawings for WMF-1617
29 are located in Book 3B, Appendix 1 of this Permit.
1 HEPA-filtered exhaust ventilation is provided for WMF-1617 and the negative pressure
2 induces ventilation through the attached Airlock 5. The exhaust ducts and fans are located to
3 draw air from the least contaminated areas into the most potentially contaminated areas. Fixed
4 filter air samplers are located around the perimeter of the building and continuous air monitors
5 (CAMs) with alarms are also provided for each discharge path (local filter/fan exhaust) to
6 monitor for airborne radioactivity. Radiological control technicians (RCTs) routinely count the
7 perimeter sampler filters for radioactive contamination. If airborne radiation above normal
8 background levels is detected, the results are evaluated and remedial actions are taken as
9 appropriate to minimize the spread of contamination and to ensure operational control, worker
10 protection, and environmental protection. Two vestibules have been added to the west side of
11 WMF-1617 to assist in controlling the change in differential pressure in the building when the
12 doors are opened. Additionally, one of the vestibules on the west side of WMF-1617 was not
13 large enough to support personnel entry and exit during WMF-1617 recovery operations.
14 Operations removed the existing vestibule and replaced it with a larger vestibule. The larger
15 vestibule is attached to WMF-1617 with fabric tape. The vestibule was added to the airlock
16 in 2013 and is not part of the RCRA-permitted waste process. This change resulted in a
17 revision to permit drawing (DWG-761193), WMF-1617 Building Elevations, See Book 3B,
18 Appendix 1 of this Permit.
19 The Retrieval Enclosure (Retrieval Area and air lock) is provided with direct-fired, draw-
20 through, propane fired gas furnaces. To the extent practical, the heating systems for the retrieval
21 area is designed to maintain 32°F at an ambient temperature of -20°F to limit wear and tear on
22 equipment caused by extreme cold weather and are not intended for human comfort. The
23 installation of the heating systems is in accordance with the applicable NFPA regulations. These
24 systems are operated independently of the HEPA-filtered exhaust, except for an interlock that
25 shuts the inlet dampers when facility exhaust flow is interrupted (back flow through the outdoor
26 intake is prevented when the system is shut down). Depending on the operating configuration of
27 the system or possible lower ambient temperatures, interior temperatures below freezing can
28 occur. Such conditions are monitored, and actions are taken as needed (such as allowing waste to
29 warm in the airlock area prior to visual inspection for free liquids).
30 WMF-1617 fire protection is provided through an underground fire water distribution
31 system that was installed within the SDA. The system was designed, installed, and tested in
32 accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 20, 22, and 24. The system
1 was designed to supply fire water at a minimum of 1,500 gpm at 20 psi. There are adequate fire
2 hydrants located at WMF-1617.
3 WMF-1617 has fire alarm and occupant notification systems to notify occupants and the
4 INL Fire Department in case of emergency. There are traditional smoke and heat detectors
5 installed throughout the airlock. Linear heat sensor cable is installed in the Drum Packaging
6 Stations (DPSs) to actuate the
1 dry chemical suppression systems. A listed automatic video fire/smoke detection system is
2 provided in the Retrieval Enclosure. The system provides primary detection during non-
3 operational periods.
4 Operations personnel have the primary responsibility for fire detection in the Retrieval
5 Enclosure during operational periods. The video fire/smoke detection system is taken out of
6 service during normal operations as necessary to prevent spurious alarms and placed back in
7 service on the backshift. Other accepted means of fire detection, should the video fire/smoke
8 detection system be impaired, include monitoring of fire watch cameras in the control room, at
9 the INL Fire Alarm Center, and/or a manned two-hour fire watch.
10 WMF-1617 has no fixed building fire suppression systems. There are automatic dry-
11 chemical fire suppression systems installed within each Drum Packaging Station and in the
12 mobile equipment to include the excavators, telehandlers, and front end loaders.
13 There are traditional portable fire extinguishers located throughout WMF-1617 as shown
14 on Exhibit G-2 in Attachment 7.
15 All fire protection systems and equipment are inspected, tested, and maintained in
16 accordance with NFPA codes/standards and the inspection, testing, and maintenance equivalency
17 as approved by the Department of Energy Idaho Falls Field Office.
18 The WMF-1617 structure is attached to the ARP V Retrieval Area. The airlock is
19 separated from the Retrieval Area and provides a buffer area for workers to package retrieved
20 waste, perform decontamination activities, service vehicles, and provide for personal protective
21 equipment (PPE) change-out. The air lock is an insulated, tensioned-membrane, fabric structure.
22 The air lock meets the same natural phenomena requirements as the main Retrieval Area. The
23 fabric membranes are attached to a steel truss structure which is attached to a concrete slab and
24 foundation. The interior rooms of the air lock are constructed independently of the tensioned-
25 membrane structure. Interior wall and ceiling surfaces are lined with galvanized metal, except in
26 contamination areas where stainless steel is used. The air lock is equipped with supplementary
27 air heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) to supply conditioned air for human
28 comfort. Ventilation is drawn from the occupied, uncontaminated area of the air locks, through
1 contaminated areas, into the Retrieval Area, and out through HEPA filters in the Retrieval Area
2 by exhaust fans. This ventilation flow path is designed to minimize the spread of contamination.
3 Ventilation flow that is adequate for contamination control is maintained in occupied areas
4 during facility operations.
5 The air lock has a partitioned service bay (Rooms 101, 102, and 103) used for servicing
6 the equipment and a contamination reduction corridor to allow vehicle operators to enter and exit
7 their vehicles in a controlled, low-contamination area. Rooms 101 and 102 are attached to Room
8 103 and are radiological support rooms for donning and doffing PPE and provide access and
9 egress to the Retrieval Area. Storage (S01) of secondary wastes occurs in these rooms. Room
10 103 is also used for miscellaneous treatment activities (X02) and for mechanical processing
11 treatment activities (X99). These support structures are included within the descriptive title “air
12 locks” and are considered to be part of the Retrieval Enclosures, but not part of the Retrieval
13 Area. Pass-through boxes are installed in the walls for transferring contamination smears and
14 small equipment and tools between the air locks and the clean area. Overhead equipment doors
15 allow equipment access into the air lock from the Retrieval Area and into the air lock from
16 outside. Dust suppressant storage and fill, diesel fueling, water, electrical cords, breathing-air
17 manifolds, and breathing-air fill systems are installed to support operations. The air lock also has
18 an operation corridor that houses support equipment (tanks, pumps, and other equipment).
19 Dust suppression liquid is applied on the soil travel paths within the WMF-1617 building
20 to minimize airborne dust/contamination from previous CERCLA operations. If not controlled,
21 the vehicle traffic creates significant dust and can affect the building ventilation system and
22 worker safety from airborne contamination. Commercially-available, non-hazardous dust
23 suppression liquid (e.g., water, WetJet, Durasoil) is applied on an as-needed basis. Application of
24 dust suppression liquid may result in minor puddling of the liquid, which is allowed to absorb
25 into surface soils.
26 Room 105 Drum Packaging in WMF-1617
27 The WMF-1617 airlock contains a drum packaging room (Room 105 which is entered
28 through Room 106 Utility Area), with four DPSs that are used to reduce contamination exposure
29 during drum packaging (X99), weighing, and staging activities. Double doors provide access to
30 drum packaging rooms.
1 Room 105 is also used for container storage (S01) of wastes. The DPSs provide a means for
2 workers to safely package waste materials out of the Retrieval Area and into clean 55-gal drums.
3 The DPSs provide contamination control and serve as radiological workstations.
4 A structural steel framework anchored to the air lock floor supports each packaging
5 station. The panels, penetrations, interfaces, and ports are sealed and secured to the frame or
6 panels. Each station has multiple glove ports and scratch-resistant Lexan windows. Slides are
7 installed under the trolley rails to funnel materials (predominantly soil) to the side of each DPS
8 entrance to allow mechanical removal of the fallen material. Stainless steel sheeting covers the
9 concrete slab inside the Retrieval Area under the trolley rails. Airflow through each station is
10 induced by the Retrieval Enclosure exhaust ventilation system to ensure contaminated air is
11 drawn away from the packaging station worker.
12 Room 104 Equipment Airlock in WMF-1617
13 The room 104 Equipment Airlock, located in WMF-1617 (reference drawing 761194 –
14 see Book 3B, Appendix 1 of this Permit) is used to transfer containers into the radiologically-
15 controlled Retrieval Area (RA) for processing from storage in WMF-698, or unloaded directly
16 from the transport trailer from AMWTP. The equipment airlock is an area that is approximately
17 20 ft wide X 40 ft in length. The steel-framed airlock is accessed by 16 ft X 16 ft doors on each
18 end to provide for equipment egress and has a reinforced concrete floor. Drums would normally
19 be introduced into the area using a manual drum hauler or a telehandler (forklift) with extending
20 boom and drum handling attachment.
21 Typically, the airlock is used as a transfer bay to support same-day transfer of wastes into
22 the RA; however, containers may be stored in the airlock area for a longer period based on
23 operational need or to accommodate unusual circumstances (e.g., loss of commercial power and
24 operational shutdown). Secondary containment within Room 104 is provided for containers that
25 remain in the airlock for more than 1 shift by storage secondary containment pans. Secondary
26 containment for drums is provided by a 4’-2” by 8’-2” by 7” pan that is constructed of 1/8”
27 carbon steel, with all corners and seams seal welded. A support grate to elevate the drums is also
28 included. The capacity of the drum storage secondary containment pans is 149 gallons, which
29 provides adequate capacity for the storage of sixteen drums. The secondary containment storage
30 pans for boxes are 12’ x 9’-8” x 12” pans made of 1/4” thick carbon steel plate and have a frame
31 and bar-grate platform inside. The volume of the pan is 862 gallons, which allows for up to four
1 boxes. The box secondary containment pan is also used for the storage of oversized boxes, if
2 necessary, in Room 104. The sludge waste stream drums to be processed in WMF-1617 may be
3 packaged in waste boxes when received. The volume of liquid within the box is based on estimates
4 using real time radiography of the waste box and is less than 10% of the overall container volumes
5 (e.g., the average volume of a fiberglass reinforced plywood box is 840 gallons). Boxes containing
6 liquid that are stored in Room 104 or in the retrieval area are stored on 9’ by 9’ by 0’6”
7 containment pans with a capacity of approximately 300 gallons. Boxes containing liquid that are in
8 the process area are stored within the 14’ by 18’ by 0’6” treatment containment pan with a capacity
9 of approximately 942 gallons. The capacities of the containment pans exceed the known volumes
10 of liquid in the sludge waste and 10% of the overall container volume, providing protective interim
11 storage of the sludge waste.
12 Room 106 Utility Area in WMF-1617
13 WMF-1617, Room 106 (Utility Area), (reference drawing 761194 – See Book 3B,
14 Appendix 1 of this Permit) is used to store drums that have been processed out of the drum
15 packaging stations before loading on a trailer for transfer back to the WMF-698 storage building
16 or return to AMWTP. The Utility Area is located in the front (west) portion of the WMF-1617
17 airlock and encompasses approximately 3,200 square ft. The Utility Area is accessed by a 14 ft X
18 14 ft metal door, a 16 ft X 16 ft metal door, and two personnel doors to provide for equipment and
19 personnel egress. The area has a reinforced concrete floor. Drums would be removed from the
20 DPS area using hand-operated drum handling equipment and removed from the Utility Area using
21 a forklift with a drum handling attachment.
22 The airlock is used to support interim storage of drums from the DPSs until a sufficient
23 quantity of drums is accumulated to support shipment to AMWTP or back to WMF-698. Drums
24 processed out of a DPS have had visual examination performed to verify removal of free liquids;
25 consequently, secondary containment will not generally be required. The area will also be used to
26 receive drums and boxes directly from AMWTP (i.e., if storage in WMF-698 does not occur). In
27 this case, the containers would require storage on secondary containment pans for secondary
28 containment before entry into the equipment airlock and processing in the retrieval area.
1 Outside Storage Areas
2 Storage of drums that have completed treatment in WMF-1617 or WMF-1619, or
3 drums/boxes of secondary waste that are ready for transfer back to AMWTP or shipment off-site,
4 may be stored on trailers located next to the treatment units, or on a trailer located near WMF-
5 1621 to support container assay. At the WMF-1621 outside storage area, drums that require
6 segregation due to further nondestructive assay evaluation or radiological survey results may be
7 stored on pallets. The containers will remain in these locations only until a full trailer is loaded
8 for return to AMWTP or off-site, and the trailer is authorized for shipment. Since these
9 containers have been through visual examination following the treatment process, there is no
10 concern with liquids or prohibited items.
11 Storage Area for Secondary Wastes
12 Secondary waste (e.g., drum carcasses/liners, PPE, plastic sheeting, filters, etc.) may be stored
13 in WMF-698, WMF-1617 or WMF-1619, after packaging, and prior to transfer to AMWTP or to an
14 off-site TSDF for disposal. Secondary waste in soil sacks may be stored in the Retrieval Areas in
15 designated areas. Soil sacks are 42” x 42” x 42”, made of polypropylene fabric with a double
16 corrugated cardboard frame. The sacks stand upright and fully open. The soil sacks are used only in
17 the Retrieval Area to collect non-liquid secondary waste prior to repackaging into containers for
18 disposition to AMWTP or off-site. In addition, outside storage of non-liquid secondary waste in cargo
19 containers and boxes occurs in the outside storage area adjacent to WMF-1617 and north of WMF-
20 1619 as shown in Exhibit B-2. Temporary accumulation areas (i.e., less than 90-day storage areas)
21 may also be established for storage of secondary waste streams.
22 Storage of Prohibited Items
23 WIPP prohibited items (e.g., liquids, etc.) will normally be treated on the sorting table
24 as part of the repackaging process. If removal from the waste is required, prohibited items may
25 be staged within the retrieval area in waste trays pending packaging into a new container via
26 the DPS. Once packaged through a DPS, prohibited items are stored in permitted storage areas,
27 separated by distance or barrier as needed depending upon waste characteristics, before being
28 returned to AMWTP. The discovery of prohibited items that must be removed from the waste
29 stream are reported to DEQ on a semi-annual basis.
1 Decontamination of Equipment
2 It is a recognized situation that within the WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 waste exhumation
3 facilities, contaminated soils are present from previous CERCLA operations. Periodic equipment
4 decontamination may be performed within the retrieval area to achieve acceptable radiological
5 conditions on the equipment for required maintenance. Any portion of the equipment (e.g.,
6 excavator, telehandler forklift, loader) that is contaminated with CERCLA materials, such as
7 contaminated soils, may require that the material be removed through spray washing, brushing, or
8 other means, and the associated wastes placed within the CERCLA contaminated area. Equipment
9 surfaces may also come in contact with RCRA waste (e.g., excavator bucket or thumb) and require
10 decontamination. Waste material is removed through spray washing, brushing, or other means. The
11 waste material is collected in the excavator secondary containment bucket, or other secondary
12 containment pan described in this permit. The excavator secondary containment bucket is a 7’ by 4’
13 by 3” carbon steel container with a crossbar for the excavator to lift. Waste from decontamination of
14 RCRA contaminated equipment is contained within the bucket or secondary containment pan, and
15 then packaged out of the facility as RCRA waste or included in the waste stream destined for WIPP.



1 WMF-1619
2 Building WMF-1619 is an existing building that was established to excavate and repackage
3 CERCLA generated waste as part of the ARP operations. WMF-1619 is a tension-membrane building
4 (referred to as a Retrieval Enclosure) that covers the western portion of Pit 10. This enclosure
5 measures approximately 135 ft x 243 ft and 45 ft in height at the tallest point. WMF-1619 housed the
6 excavation, waste retrieval, waste packaging, sampling, decontamination, vehicle service, and
7 personnel ingress/egress for the remediation of Pit 10 under CERCLA. CERCLA transfer of waste or
8 equipment through WMF-1619 is administratively controlled so that RCRA and CERCLA operations
9 do not occur at the same time. Exhibits B-9, B-10, and B-11 provide schematics of WMF-1619.
10 WMF-1619 has an attached air lock used for drum packaging and storage, a service-bay for
11 mechanical treatment (drum compactor) and to support equipment maintenance, and radiological
12 control support areas.
13 The Retrieval Enclosure provides weather protection for year-round operations. The physical
14 boundary of the fabric structure affords a barrier to the spread of radioactive contamination. The
15 Retrieval Enclosures have sufficient space and interior height to house excavator operations and
16 waste container movements.
17 The Retrieval Enclosure includes the following systems: structure frame; membrane covering
18 (with inner and outer fabric enclosing an insulating layer); exhaust ventilation (including area-based
19 emissions monitoring, high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, and supporting electrical
20 systems); propane heating system (and associated piping and equipment); and a fire detection and
21 alarm system.
22 The fabric membrane is insulated and meets National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 701
23 standards for fire resistance. The membrane material for the Retrieval Enclosure structure is a
24 polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-impregnated textile. The PVC is formulated with flame-resistant
25 compounds. The fabric material meets applicable International Building Code (IBC) flame-spread
26 performance criteria for a limited combustible material.
27 WMF-1619 has steel trusses that attach to a cast-in place foundation and utilizes piles driven
28 to bedrock to stabilize the foundation. WMF-1619 is designed to withstand seismic, snow, and wind
29 loads in accordance with the applicable requirements. Drawings for WMF-1619 are located in Book
30 3B, Appendix 1 of this Permit.
1 HEPA-filtered exhaust ventilation is provided for WMF-1619 and the negative pressure
2 induces ventilation through the attached Airlock 6. The exhaust ducts and fans are located to draw
3 air from the least contaminated areas into the most potentially contaminated areas. Fixed filter air
4 samplers are located around the perimeter of the building and CAMs with alarms are also provided
5 for each discharge path (local filter/fan exhaust) to monitor for airborne radioactivity. RCTs
6 routinely count the perimeter sampler filters for radioactive contamination. If airborne radiation
7 above normal background levels is detected, the results are evaluated and remedial actions are taken
8 as appropriate to minimize the spread of contamination and to ensure operational control, worker
9 protection, and environmental protection. Two personnel vestibules are located on the south side of
10 WMF-1619 to assist in controlling the change in differential pressure in the building when the
11 airlock doors are opened.
12 Although the WMF-1619 Retrieval Area is connected to WMF-1621 (ARP VIII) and ARP
13 IX to allow the passage of equipment and CERCLA wastes, it is isolated (closed doors) during
14 RCRA operations activities to prevent cross-contamination.
15 The Retrieval Enclosure (Retrieval Area and air lock) is provided with direct-fired, draw-
16 through, propane fired gas furnaces. To the extent practical, the heating systems for the retrieval
17 area is designed to maintain 32°F at an ambient temperature of -20°F to limit wear and tear on
18 equipment caused by extreme cold weather and are not intended for human comfort. The
19 installation of the heating systems is in accordance with the applicable NFPA regulations. These
20 systems are operated independently of the HEPA-filtered exhaust, except for an interlock that shuts
21 the inlet dampers when facility exhaust flow is interrupted (back flow through the outdoor intake is
22 prevented when the system is shut down). Depending on the operating configuration of the system
23 or possible lower ambient temperatures, interior temperatures below freezing can occur. Such
24 conditions are monitored, and actions are taken as needed (such as allowing waste to warm in the
25 airlock area prior to visual inspection for free liquids).
26 WMF-1619 fire protection is provided through an underground fire water distribution
27 system that was installed within the SDA. The system was designed, installed, and tested in
28 accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 20, 22, and 24. The system was
29 designed to supply fire water at a minimum of 1,500 gpm at 20 psi. There are adequate fire
30 hydrants located at WMF-1619.
1 WMF-1619 has fire alarm and occupant notification systems to notify occupants and the
2 INL Fire Department in case of emergency. There are traditional smoke and heat detectors installed
3 throughout the airlock. Linear heat sensor cable is installed in the DPS to actuate the dry chemical
4 suppression systems. A listed automatic video fire/smoke detection system is provided in the
5 Retrieval Enclosure. The system provides primary detection during non-operational periods.
6 Operations personnel have the primary responsibility for fire detection in the Retrieval
7 Enclosure during operational periods. The video fire/smoke detection system is taken out of service
8 during normal operations as necessary to prevent spurious alarms and placed back in service on the
9 backshift. Other accepted means of fire detection, should the video fire/smoke detection system be
10 impaired, include monitoring of fire watch cameras in the control room, at the INL Fire Alarm
11 Center, and/or a manned two-hour fire watch.
12 WMF-1619 has no fixed building fire suppression systems. There are automatic dry-
13 chemical fire suppression systems installed within each DPS and in the mobile equipment to include
14 the excavators, telehandlers, and front-end loaders.
15 There are traditional portable fire extinguishers located throughout WMF-1619 as shown on
16 Exhibit G-3 in Attachment 7.
17 All fire protection systems and equipment are inspected, tested, and maintained in
18 accordance with NFPA codes/standards and the inspection, testing, and maintenance equivalency as
19 approved by the Department of Energy Idaho Falls Field Office.
20 The WMF-1619 (ARP VII) airlock structure (Airlock 6) is attached to the Retrieval Area.
21 The airlock is separated from the Retrieval Area and provides a buffer area for workers to package
22 retrieved waste and provides waste storage and treatment areas. Additionally, the airlock area
23 allows for workers to perform decontamination activities, service vehicles, and provide for PPE
24 change-out. The air lock is an insulated, tensioned-membrane, fabric structure. The air lock meets
25 the same natural phenomena requirements as the main Retrieval Area. The fabric membranes are
26 attached to a steel truss structure which is attached to a concrete slab and foundation. The interior
27 rooms of the air lock are constructed independently of the tensioned-membrane structure. Interior
28 wall and ceiling surfaces are lined with galvanized metal, except in contamination areas where
29 stainless steel is used. The air lock is equipped with supplementary air heating, ventilating, and air
30 conditioning (HVAC) to supply conditioned air for human comfort. Ventilation is drawn from the
31 occupied, uncontaminated area of the air locks, through
1 contaminated areas, into the Retrieval Area, and out through HEPA filters in the Retrieval Area by
2 exhaust fans. This ventilation flow path is designed to minimize the spread of contamination.
3 Ventilation flow that is adequate for contamination control is maintained in occupied areas during
4 facility operations.
5 The airlock has a partitioned service bay (Room 101-transition room, Room 102-utility
6 room, and Room 103-service bay) used for servicing the equipment and a contamination reduction
7 corridor to allow vehicle operators to enter and exit their vehicles in a controlled, low-
8 contamination area. Rooms 101 and 102 are attached to Room 103 and are radiological support
9 rooms for donning and doffing PPE and provide access and egress to the Retrieval Area. Room 103
10 may also be used for miscellaneous treatment activities and for mechanical processing treatment
11 activities (drum crushing). Storage of secondary wastes may also occur in these rooms. These
12 support structures are included within the descriptive title “airlocks” and are considered to be part of
13 the Retrieval Enclosure, but not part of the Retrieval Area. Pass-through boxes are installed in the
14 walls for transferring contamination smears and small equipment and tools between the air locks
15 and the clean area. Overhead equipment doors allow equipment access into the air lock from the
16 Retrieval Area and into the airlock from outside. Dust suppressant storage and fill, diesel fueling,
17 water, electrical cords, breathing-air manifolds, and breathing-air fill systems are installed to
18 support operations. The airlock also has an operation corridor that houses support equipment (tanks,
19 pumps, and other equipment).
20 Dust suppression liquid is applied on the soil travel paths within the WMF-1619 building to
21 minimize airborne dust/contamination from previous CERCLA operations. If not controlled, the
22 vehicle traffic creates significant dust and can affect the facility ventilation system and worker
23 safety from airborne contamination. Commercially-available, non-hazardous dust suppression
24 liquid (e.g., water, WetJet, Durasoil) is applied on an as-needed basis. Application of dust
25 suppression liquid may result in minor puddling of the liquid which is allowed to absorb into
26 surface soils.
27 Room 105 Drum Packaging in WMF-1619
28 The WMF-1619 airlock contains a drum packaging room (Room 105 which is entered
29 through Room 106 Utility Area), with four DPSs that are used to reduce contamination exposure
30 during drum packaging, weighing, and staging activities. This room is also used for container
31 storage of wastes. Double doors provide access to the drum packaging room.
1 DPSs provide a means for workers to safely package waste materials out of the Retrieval
2 Area and into clean 55-gal drums. The DPSs provide contamination control and serve as
3 radiological workstations.
4 A structural steel framework anchored to the air lock floor supports each packaging station.
5 The panels, penetrations, interfaces, and ports are sealed and secured to the frame or panels. Each
6 station has multiple glove ports and scratch-resistant Lexan windows. Slides are installed under the
7 trolley rails to funnel materials (predominantly soil) to the side of each DPS entrance to allow
8 mechanical removal of the fallen material. Stainless steel sheeting covers the concrete slab inside
9 the Retrieval Area under the trolley rails. Airflow through each station is induced by the Retrieval
10 Enclosure exhaust ventilation system to ensure contaminated air is drawn away from the packaging
11 station worker.
12 Room 104 Equipment Airlock in WMF-1619
13 The Room 104 Equipment Airlock, located in WMF-1619, is used to transfer containers into
14 the radiologically-controlled Retrieval Area (RA) for processing. The room is also used for
15 container storage of wastes. The equipment airlock is an area that is approximately 20 ft wide X 38
16 ft in length. The steel-framed airlock is accessed by 16 ft X 16 ft doors on each end to provide for
17 equipment egress and has a reinforced concrete floor. Containers will normally be introduced into
18 the area using a telehandler (forklift) or crane.
19 Typically, the airlock is used as a transfer bay to support same-day transfer of wastes into
20 the RA; however, containers may be stored in the airlock area for a longer period based on
21 operational need or to accommodate unusual circumstances (e.g., loss of commercial power and
22 operational shutdown). Secondary containment within Room 104 is provided for containers that
23 remain in the airlock for more than 1 shift by storage secondary containment pans. Secondary
24 containment for drums is provided by a 4’-2” by 8’-2” by 7” pan that is constructed of 1/8” carbon
25 steel, with all corners and seams seal welded. A support grate to elevate the drums is also included.
26 The capacity of the drum storage secondary containment pans is 149 gallons, which provides
27 adequate capacity for the storage of sixteen drums. The secondary containment storage pans for
28 boxes are 12’ x 9’-8” x 12” pans made of 1/4” thick carbon steel plate and have a frame and bar-
29 grate platform inside. The volume of the pan is 862 gallons, which allows for storage of up to four
30 boxes. The box secondary containment pan is also used for the storage of oversized boxes, if
31 necessary, in Room 104.
1 The sludge (SRP) waste stream drums processed in WMF-1619 may be packaged in waste
2 boxes when received. The volume of liquid within the box is based on estimates using real time
3 radiography of the waste box and is less than 10% of the overall container volumes (e.g., the
4 average volume of a fiberglass reinforced plywood box is 840 gallons). Boxes containing liquid that
5 are stored in Room 104 or in the retrieval area are stored on 9’ by 9’ by 0’6” containment pans with
6 a capacity of approximately 300 gallons. Boxes containing liquid that are in the process area are
7 stored within the 14’ by 18’ by 0’6” treatment containment pan with a capacity of approximately
8 942 gallons. The capacities of the containment pans exceed the known volumes of liquid in the
9 sludge waste and 10% of the overall container volume, providing protective interim storage of the
10 sludge waste.
11 The debris (DRP) waste stream contains limited volumes of liquid based on estimates using
12 real time radiography of the debris containers. The debris waste stream is predominantly solid
13 debris waste with liquid volumes that are less than 10% of the overall container volumes (e.g., the
14 average volume of a fiberglass reinforced plywood box is 840 gallons). Boxes containing liquid that
15 are stored in Room 104 or in the retrieval area are stored on 9’0” by 6’0” by 0’6” box transfer pans,
16 with a containment capacity of approximately 200 gallons, or on 9’-0” by 9’-0” by 0’6”
17 containment pans with a capacity of approximately 300 gallons. Boxes containing liquid that are in
18 the process area are stored on the box transfer pan within a 12’ by 12’ by 10” treatment containment
19 pan with a capacity of approximately 900 gallons. The capacities of the containment pans exceed
20 the known volumes of liquid in the debris waste and 10% of the overall container volume,
21 providing protective interim storage of the debris waste.
22 Room 106 Utility Area in WMF-1619
23 WMF-1619, Room 106 (Utility Area) is used to store containers that have been sent from
24 AMWTP and off-loaded from the trailer prior to processing, drums that have been processed out of
25 the drum packaging stations, or boxes of waste that have been repackaged/decontaminated before
26 loading on a trailer for return to AMWTP. The Utility Area is located in the front (south) portion of
27 the WMF-1619 airlock. The Utility Area is accessed by two 14 ft X 14 ft metal doors, a 16 ft X 16
28 ft metal door, and four personnel doors to provide for equipment and personnel egress. The area
29 has a reinforced concrete floor. Drums are removed from the DPS area using hand-operated drum
30 handling equipment and removed from the Utility Area using a forklift with a drum handling
31 attachment.
1 The airlock is used to support interim storage of waste boxes from the retrieval area or
2 drums from the DPSs until sufficient quantity of containers is accumulated to support shipment to
3 AMWTP. Boxes processed in the retrieval area and drums processed out of a DPS have had visual
4 examination performed to verify removal of free liquids; consequently, secondary containment will
5 not generally be required. The area will also be used to receive drums and boxes directly from
6 AMWTP (i.e., if storage in WMF-698 does not occur). In this case, the containers would require
7 storage on secondary containment pans before entry into the equipment airlock and processing in
8 the retrieval area.
9 Room 107 Non-destructive Assay (NDA) in WMF-1619
10 WMF-1619, Room 107 houses the NDA unit and is not part of the RCRA permitted area.

1 RWMC Location Information
1 The RWMC occupies approximately 166 acres in the southwestern corner of the INL.
2 The INL is located along the western edge of the eastern Snake River Plain in southeastern
3 Idaho, approximately between latitudes N 43°28′ to N 44°02′ and longitudes E 112°26′ to E
4 113°15′. The following sections describe how the RWMC complies with the seismic and
5 floodplain standards under 40 CFR 270, 40 CFR 264.18, IDAPA 58.01.05.012, and
7 IDAPA 58.01.05.008.
8 Seismic Standard [IDAPA 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 264.18(a) and 40
9 CFR 270.14(b)(11)(i-ii)]
10 The RWMC is located in Butte County, Idaho. Butte County is not listed in IDAPA
11 58.01.05.008 (Appendix VI to 40 CFR 264), and, therefore, does not require demonstration of
12 compliance with the seismic standard.
13 Floodplain Standard [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.18(b);
14 IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(11)(iii-iv)]
15 A 2001 flood evaluation study (“100-Year Floodplain and 25-Year Runoff Analyses for
16 the Radioactive Waste Management Complex Area at the Idaho National Engineering and
17 Environmental Laboratory,” T. Mitchell, S. Mitchell, J. Humphrey, D. Kennedy, and T.
18 Funderburg, December 2001), provided in Book 3B, Appendix 2 of this Permit, analyzed the
19 extent of a 100-year floodplain. Based on this analysis, there are no mixed waste management
20 areas located within the 100-year floodplain at the RWMC. The requirements of this section are,
21 therefore, not applicable.
22 Traffic Information [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(10)]
23 U.S. Route 20/26 is the general access route to the RWMC and the SDA. Van Buren
24 Boulevard intersects U.S. 20/26 northeast of the RWMC and is the direct access road leading to
25 the Experimental Breeder Reactor I (EBR-I). Adams Boulevard intersects Van Buren Boulevard
26 just north of EBR-I and is the direct access road leading to the RWMC. Employee-owned
27 vehicles are not allowed to enter the SDA. Personnel travelling in the SDA either walk or are
28 transported by contractor vehicles/equipment, federally owned vehicles, or vendor vehicles.
1 Waste transfers to/from AMWTP and the SDA are completed via the access gates between the
2 TSA and SDA areas.
3 Traffic control procedures within the SDA area support facility operations, maintenance,
4 and waste transfers. These traffic procedures are implemented using standard highway traffic
5 control and informational signs. The typical sign types that may be used in the SDA are: Stop
6 signs (at access gates and some road intersections); Clearance signs (where electrical lines pass
7 over the roadway and restrict traffic); Speed Limit signs (various signs on roadways as
8 necessary); Directional signs (various roadways to indicate traffic flow direction); and
9 Informational signs (various roadways to indicate facility locations, loading/unloading areas,
10 etc.). Example locations of stop signs and speed limit signs for the SDA are shown in
11 Exhibit B-12.

1 D. PROCESS INFORMATION
2 This section provides process information for the Radioactive Waste Management Complex
3 (RWMC) Subsurface Disposal Area (SDA) Sludge Repackage Project (SRP) and Debris Repackage
4 Project (DRP) waste management units addressed in this permit: container storage (S01) in buildings
5 WMF-698, WMF-1617, WMF-1619 and at the trailer storage areas, and miscellaneous treatment (X99
6 and X02 in Buildings WMF-1617 and WMF-1619) and miscellaneous storage (X99) in Buildings
7 WMF-1617 and WMF-1619. Miscellaneous treatment is conducted in three miscellaneous treatment
8 units in WMF-1617; the retrieval area, the DPSs, and the drum compactor. Miscellaneous treatment in
9 WMF-1619 is conducted in the retrieval area, the DPSs, and Room 103 (Service Bay) – Drum
10 Compactor X02 – mechanical processing (crushing), X99 – absorbent addition). Activities include
11 any/all of the following, opening waste containers (boxes or drums), staging waste in the retrieval area
12 associated with waste processing activities, venting containers, removing waste from the container,
13 segregating/sorting waste, opening/crushing inner containers with liquid content, absorbent addition
14 for liquids, segregation/treatment of WIPP prohibited items, sizing waste to fit into containers, and
15 subsequently placing the waste into new containers. Sizing/compaction/ crushing of drum carcasses
16 and/or liners may also be performed.
17 Recovery operations related to the April 11, 2018 drum event in WMF-1617 were complete
18 July 30, 2019. WMF-1617 is physically capable of supporting sludge processing operations. However,
19 residual contamination in the structure mandates additional controls and increased potential for
20 radiological exposure of workers. Therefore, SRP activities described for both WMF-1617 and
21 WMF-1619 are performed only in WMF-1619.
22 Container Storage in WMF-698
23 WMF-698 is used for storing waste containers received from the AMWTP. Waste containers are
24 stored in WMF-698 until being transferred to WMF-1617/1619 for further processing. Maxi-Heat
25 Engine Driven Heaters (diesel fuel) are used to warm containers in WMF-698, as necessary, prior to
26 transfer. Containers are covered with reinforced construction film and warm air supplied by the Maxi
27 Heaters is introduced to allow the containers to thaw. The reinforced construction film meets the NFPA
28 701 standards for fire resistance. The material will not sustain combustion. The Maxi Heaters are located
29 no closer than 25 ft from the Storage Enclosure. Hoses are run from the Maxi Heaters into the Storage
30 Enclosure and connected to metal manifolds that direct the warm air into the construction film covering
31 the containers.
1 Once these containers have been processed at WMF-1617/1619, they are either returned to
2 WMF-698 for interim storage or returned directly to the AMWTP. WMF-698 is permitted to store up
3 to 1,973 drums (108,515 gallons). The storage configuration consists of storing the containers in a
4 standard RCRA 2-wide by 2-high configuration. Containers with liquids are stored on storage
5 secondary containment pans to provide secondary containment for free liquids. Waste boxes may also
6 be used for storage at WMF-698 in the same 2-wide by 2-high
1 configuration. Aisle space is provided for inspection personnel and emergency equipment (minimum
2 of 3 feet between drum or box rows, and a 20-foot main aisle to allow removal and inspector egress).
3 The maximum RCRA storage capacity (108,515 gallons) configuration is shown in Exhibit B-5. To
4 provide for effective storage capacity utilization for both RCRA and CERCLA wastes, the storage
5 areas are clearly delineated within WMF-698 using ropes and signs. The storage area dimensions
6 within the building will vary depending on operational needs. RCRA and CERCLA wastes are not
7 intermixed within container rows. Evaluation of the waste to be received from AMWTP shows no
8 compatibility, reactivity, or ignitability concerns for storage. Weekly inspections of the storage area
9 within the building, and daily inspections of the loading/unloading areas (when in use), are performed
10 by trained personnel, as required by RCRA. CERCLA waste stored in WMF-698 is segregated from
11 the RCRA waste by ropes and signs and is managed in accordance with the CERCLA protocols.
12 CERCLA waste is not subject to the RCRA permit requirements.
13 SLUDGE REPACK PROJECT (SRP)
14 Container Storage in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619
15 WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 are used for storing and processing SRP waste containers received
16 from AMWTP. SRP Container storage areas for WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 are located within
17 Rooms 101/102/103 Service Bay (2 standard waste boxes and 8 drums, or 1,787 gallons capacity for
18 each facility), Room 104 Equipment Airlock (38 drums or 2,090 gallon capacity for each facility),
19 Room 105 Drum Packaging Stations (6 drums or 330 gallons capacity for each facility), and Room 106
20 Utility Area (320 drums or 17,600 gallons capacity for each facility). The standard RCRA storage
21 configuration (2-wide by 2-high) is used. These areas are shown in Exhibits B-7 and B-11.
22 Drums/boxes that may contain liquids (i.e., before repackaging and absorbent addition is completed)
23 are stored on container storage secondary containment pans to provide secondary containment. Aisle
24 space is maintained for inspection personnel and emergency equipment. Storage in Rooms 101, 102,
25 103, 104 and 105 is flexible within the room to meet SRP operational needs, but aisle space
26 requirements are met in all configurations. Inspections are completed via visual or camera inspections
27 or viewing areas through windows. If waste processing occurs during the shift, inspection of the
28 RCRA areas is completed by direct visual inspection. Required inspections on non-operational shifts
29 (i.e., no waste processing activities) may be performed via facility cameras. The RCRA areas within
30 the Retrieval Areas are shown on Exhibits B-6 and B-10.
1 Sludge Repackage Project Miscellaneous Treatment and Storage (X99)
2 and Mechanical Processing Treatment (X02) in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619
3 Processing of the SRP waste at WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 is performed in three areas at each
4 facility: the Retrieval Area (X99), the DPS stations (X99), and the drum compactor in Room 103 (X99
5 and X02). Miscellaneous storage (X99) consists of staging of waste within secondary containment in
6 the Retrieval Area prior to processing, and staging waste for the DPS stations and drum compactor.
7 The Retrieval Area includes the following activities: opening waste containers, staging waste in the
8 retrieval area associated with waste processing activities, venting containers, removing waste from the
9 container onto the sorting table, segregating/sorting waste, opening/crushing inner containers with
10 liquid content, absorbent addition for liquids, segregation/treatment of WIPP prohibited items, staging
11 empty drums and ancillaries (lids, rings), wiping sludge from drum exteriors or applying fixative,
12 compacting/crushing empty containers with the excavator, and sizing waste to fit into containers. The
13 DPS activities include segregation of prohibited items, addition of absorbents to the waste in the tray
14 as necessary, decontaminating containers, visual examination by WIPP-qualified visual examiners to
15 document compliance with the WIPP WAC, and placing the waste into new containers. The Drum
16 Compactor is used to compact drum carcasses and/or liners and secondary waste and also includes
17 absorbent addition for any liquids from the compaction process. These activities will allow the
18 repackaged waste to meet the WIPP WAC.
19 At the WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 facilities, a portion of the SRP drums to be processed are
20 30-55-gallon drums placed in larger overpack containers (e.g., 83 gallon overpack drums and various
21 waste boxes). The drums must be removed from the overpack containers to support processing the
22 prohibited items (e.g., free liquids) at the sorting table for each facility. Drums are removed from
23 overpack containers within Room 103 or adjacent to the sorting table, depending on waste container
24 characteristics and operational needs. The drum removal process in Room 103 involves removing the
25 lid from the overpack container, followed by using the existing Room 103 gantry crane to lift the drum
26 from the overpack container using a drum lifting attachment. This process is performed within a
27 secondary containment pan located within Room 103, position specific to operational needs.
28 Prior to rigging and lifting the SRP drum, operations will inspect the inner drum to identify
29 conditions that would prohibit removal in Room 103. If the inner drum shows evidence of
1 rupture, severe rusting, or structural defects (such as excessive bulges), the containers are transferred to
2 the sorting table for processing.
3 SRP Drum removal and processing at the sorting table area is performed within the secondary
4 containment through use of the excavator and other processing equipment as needed (e.g., telehandler).
5 A limited number of oversized boxes with volume larger than 862 gallons may be stored within
6 the retrieval area or brought in for same-day processing without storage. Waste boxes with known free
7 liquid content within the boxes (i.e., outside of the inner drums) based on real-time radiography or
8 other characterization data, may be processed to solidify the free liquids in the box before entering the
9 retrieval area. Waste boxes without free liquids, are stored on the existing 9’ by 9’ by 6” secondary
10 containment pans.
11 Some SRP boxed waste and/or inner drums may require venting before processing to release
12 any flammable gases that may be present (e.g., hydrogen gas). Non-sparking tools are used to perform
13 the venting. Venting is performed in the service bay (Room 103) or in the retrieval area based on
14 operational or safety considerations.
15 SRP Drum lids/rings are loosened and removed in either the equipment airlock (Room 104),
16 the service bay (Room 103) or in the retrieval area, depending upon operational needs. The lids and
17 drum ancillaries (e.g., rings and bolts) are staged in trays for separate management as secondary waste.
18 SRP boxes and drums staged in the retrieval area at both WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 are
19 placed in waste tray secondary containment pans. The locations of the eight 20’ by 60’ staging areas
20 and two soil sack staging areas within the WMF-1617 RA are shown in Exhibit B-6. The locations of
21 the nine 20’ x 60’ staging areas and two soil sack staging areas within the WMF-1619 RA are shown
22 in Exhibit B-10, each area contains four waste tray secondary containment pans. The waste tray
23 secondary containment pans are 9’-0” by 9’-0” by 6”, made of 1/4” carbon steel, and capable of
24 holding 300 gallons of liquid. The pans have a 6” high frame underneath with forklift pockets to allow
25 for movement within the identified staging areas. The waste tray secondary containment pans also
26 have an 8’-0” by 8’-0” by 12’ support grate made of 1/4” carbon steel. The support grate allows for
27 inspection of the secondary containment and elevates the drums or waste trays to prevent contact with
28 accumulated liquids. Up to nine waste drums, four waste trays, or two waste boxes may be placed on
29 the waste tray secondary containment pans.
1 The location of the drum processing area, including the sorting table, is shown in Exhibit B-6
2 for the WMF-1617 facility and Exhibit B-10 for WMF-1619 facility. Exhibit D-1 provides a
3 schematic of the sorting table for both facilities. The sorting table is made of carbon steel, is 9’-2” by
4 6’-0” with a 1/2” thick floor and 1/4” thick sides. The floor and sides are reinforced to allow safe
5 mixing of the waste and absorbent. The sorting table is capable of holding greater than 130 gallons of
6 liquid. The sorting table is located inside a 14’-0” by 18’-0” by 6” secondary containment, constructed
7 of 1/4” carbon steel, which has a capacity of 942 gallons. The secondary containment also has an 8”
8 high frame with lifting lugs and skid plates for movement within the drum processing area if
9 necessary, for operational reasons.
10 To support SRP operational requirements for WMF-1617 and WMF-1619, additional
11 containment pans were added to the perimeter of the main sorting table secondary containment pan as
12 shown in Exhibits D-1 and D-2. Two 4’ by 8’ by 6’ 7/8” secondary containment pans were added to
13 the front (southeast side) of the main sorting table pan between the front of the sorting table and the
14 excavator. These pans are attached to the main sorting table pan with u-shaped steel bridges over the
15 joints or through the use of ½” diameter minimum bolts placed a minimum of 4 ¼” above the bottom
16 of the pan. Lexan shields are placed on the southeast side of the secondary containment pans to
17 prevent material from being projected under the excavator. Two additional pans were placed on both
18 the southwest and northwest sides of the main sorting table as well as additional 2’ x 9’ pans shown in
19 Exhibits D-1 and D-2. These pans are attached with u-shaped steel bridges over the joints or through
20 the use of ½” minimum diameter bolts. All of the 4’x8’ pans are placed on empty waste trays to
21 elevate the pans to the correct height in relation to the main sorting table.
22 Three 9’x9’ containment pans were placed to the northeast of the main sorting pan. These
23 9’x9’ pans are connected to the main sorting pan with u-shaped steel bridges over the joints.
24 Additional bridges were placed at any exposed critical pan junctions.
25 Also shown in Figure D-2 (in red), is an inner containment pan (5’ by 6’) that is used in support
26 of the sorting table operations for initial drum processing activities (removal of lids and removal of
27 drums from overpacks), use of the spiking tool to facilitate removal of waste from the drums, and for
28 containment and absorption of liquids that may release during removal of drums from the overpack
29 containers. This inner pan was added as an extra level of containment during these processes to
30 prevent waste from entering the secondary containment within the treatment area. The inner
31 containment pan is operated under the same conditions as the sorting table.
35
1 A second inner containment pan which is 10’ x 6’ x 1’, made of 1/ 4” carbon steel plate, and has a
2 carbon steel c-channel frame, may be used when removing drums from waste boxes.
3 Treatment activities conducted on the sorting table include any/all of the following activities.
4 The excavator will take the sludge drum from the waste tray secondary containment pan and empty the
5 contents onto the sorting table. If necessary, a spike tool may be used to loosen the waste in the drum
6 to assist with removal. The spike tool is a 3” diameter steel spike that can be picked up by the
7 excavator. The spike tool is stored in an upright position in a bin of absorbent to provide easy access
8 and to prevent any material that may adhere to the tool from spilling.
9 No more than two drum equivalents are permitted on the sorting table at any time. Criticality
10 Safety may have more restrictive requirements (i.e., fewer drum equivalents allowed on the sorting table) based
11 on fissile characteristics of the waste. The waste is then segregated/sorted to determine the presence of
12 liquids and identify/remove any prohibited items. Any inner containers that may have liquid content
13 are opened/crushed with the excavator thumb or bucket to allow absorption of the liquid to take place.
14 The excavator is used to add absorbent materials (identified in Attachment 2) to the waste on the
15 sorting table. The absorbent material is staged in the RA within a 4’-6” by 3’-0” by 2’-6” bin that has
16 a capacity of 250 gallons. The waste/absorbent is mixed on the sorting table with the excavator bucket
17 to ensure absorption of the liquids. Once mixing is completed, the waste is scraped from the sorting
18 table into the lined waste trays that have been placed in front of the sorting table. Care is taken not to
19 overfill the waste tray, as additional absorbent may be added in the DPS. The filled waste tray will then
20 be staged on a waste tray secondary containment pan or transported to the DPS for further processing,
21 depending on DPS availability.

38
1 All SRP waste processed in WMF-1619 is processed utilizing the following operational
2 controls developed to prevent drum over-pressurization after packaging:
3 · Waste material is raked when it is emptied out of the drums on the sorting table to mix the
4 material and expose it to air, then placed in trays.
5 · The waste material is evenly distributed within the waste tray, to the extent practical, to form a
6 uniform depth of the waste material, and is staged for a minimum of 24 hours in the Retrieval
7 Area.
8 · At the end of the 24-hour hold time, the waste is monitored using thermal camera(s) for
9 elevated temperatures (>4°F above ambient). If the waste temperature variation is >4°F above
10 ambient temperature, the waste is reconditioned by thoroughly raking again and holding for
11 another 24-hour period. Once the 24-hour hold is complete, the temperature is again monitored
12 using a thermal camera. If the temperature variation of the waste is verified <4°F above
13 ambient temperature, the waste is processed through the DPSs. If the temperature variation is
14 >4°F, the reconditioning rake and hold process is repeated until the temperature after a 24-hour
15 hold is no longer >4°F above ambient.
16 · The waste remains staged for a minimum of 24 hours to allow for any reaction to complete so
17 that the reaction occurs in the Retrieval Area instead of the DPSs or in a newly packaged drum.
18 · By removing the significant heat source prior to packaging of the waste in a drum, the methane
19 generation does not occur rapidly enough to generate sufficient gas/pressure to remove the
20 drum lid.

1 The sorting table activities performed inside the retrieval enclosure are observed through
2 either excavator mounted cameras or cameras located within the facility (see Exhibit D-3 for
3 camera locations within the WMF-1617 RA and see Exhibit D-7 for the WMF-1619 Retrieval
4 Enclosure Camera Plan) that broadcast a video feed to the operations control room. The operations
5 foreman directs the operation through viewing these camera feeds and communicates by radio
6 with the equipment operator.
7 WIPP prohibited items are treated on the sorting table or are segregated using the
8 excavator at this point and staged in a waste tray located within a waste tray secondary
9 containment pan. If segregation is not practical within the retrieval area via the excavator,
10 segregation of prohibited items is performed in the DPS. If consistent with the facility safety
11 basis, prohibited items are packaged into drums through the DPS and transferred to AMWTP for
12 processing and disposition. In some cases, prohibited items are staged in waste trays in the
13 retrieval area within secondary containment after segregation in the DPS to provide operational
14 flexibility. Prohibited items, staged inside the retrieval area in a waste tray, are separated from
15 other waste by distance and/or barriers and handled as appropriate.
16 Containers (drums, boxes, and associated liners, if any) that are emptied will undergo
17 visual verification (via video camera feed described above). Operations personnel view the inside
18 of a waste container that has been emptied on the video feed or direct visual observation (through
19 the windows) and determine through operational experience and training if the container meets the
20 regulatory definition to be considered RCRA empty. The RCRA empty determination is
21 documented on FRM-1367 which is maintained in the Operating Record. Containers less than or
22 equal to 119 gallons in size that are verified as empty [i.e., no more than the equivalent of one inch
23 at the bottom of the container (or 3-percent by weight) of residues exist on the aggregate of the
24 interior and exterior of the container)], are staged for separate management as non-RCRA
25 secondary waste. For containers larger than 119 gallons in size, 0.3 percent (by weight) of the
26 total capacity of the container may exist on the aggregate of the interior and exterior of the
27 container. In instances where the sludge is not readily removed from a container, the excavator is
28 used to dismantle the container (sizing) to remove the sludge, or the sludge is removed in the DPS.
29 In these cases, the container carcasses may not support a RCRA empty determination;
30 consequently, the non-intact container is crushed (sizing) by the excavator in a waste tray
31 secondary containment pan (without grate), or the sorting table secondary containment pan, or in
32 the drum compactor and staged/packaged for

1 management as RCRA secondary waste (i.e., hazardous debris). Secondary wastes are placed
2 into drums, standard waste boxes, or other waste boxes. After being emptied in the DPS, the
3 waste trays are returned to the RA and stacked on a waste tray secondary containment pan for
4 reuse in the process.
5 A drum compactor is located in Room 103 to compact empty drums. Exhibit D-4
6 provides a schematic of the drum compactor. The compacted drums are direct loaded into a
7 container (drum or standard waste box) in Room 103 or passed through a radiological portal into
8 a container in Room 106 for disposition.
9 The drum compactor (Exhibit D-4) is constructed of carbon steel. The empty drum
10 carcass is placed in the compactor either vertically upright or upside down. During compaction,
11 a large diameter mast head presses down on the drum, causing it to collapse downward as it is
12 compacted. Total time for the compaction cycle on each drum is approximately 55 seconds.
13 Drum compaction is performed with the door of the compactor closed and latched, for purposes
14 of safety.

EXHIBIT D-4. Example of Drum Compactor used at WMF1617 and WMF-1619
42
1 The drum compactor is located in the drum compactor secondary containment tray.
2 The tray is 5’-0” by 5’-6” by 4” carbon steel and includes a channel to elevate the drum
3 compactor by 6”. The tray also has a 4’-0” section of roller table attached to the front to aid in
4 drum handling. The tray provides 60 gallons of capacity for any liquids that are produced
5 during the drum compaction. Absorbent is staged within Room 103 and is applied to the
6 liquids within the containment tray with hand tools (scoops, shovels, etc.). The absorbed
7 material is then removed from the tray, bagged, and returned to the RA for inclusion in the
8 waste stream.
9 Once in the DPS, WIPP qualified Visual Examiners (VEs) will thoroughly inspect the
10 waste. Visual Examination (VE) Operators are qualified to the WIPP certified program. VE
11 is conducted at the DPSs in accordance with a WIPP certified procedure. The scope of this
12 procedure is “to document the physical waste form, confirm the Waste Stream description and
13 Waste Matrix Code, document that no prohibited items are present, and estimate the weight of
14 the waste material parameters.” Additional characterization is performed at the AMWTP.
15 The characterization information from these processes is included in the updated AK package
16 by AMWTP for shipment to WIPP.
17 Any further WIPP prohibited items identified are segregated for return to AMWTP
18 separate from the sludge waste being processed or treated on the sorting table within the
19 retrieval area. Evidence of, or potential for free liquid generation is mitigated using the
20 addition of absorbent followed by a thorough mix using simple DPS based tools (scoops,
21 small shovels, small rakes, etc.). At this point, the waste is hoisted in its tray liner, moved and
22 then lowered to a new drum attached to the DPS load out port. A radiological transfer sleeve
23 ensures no contamination is spread during the discharge to the drum.
24 The liner, a bottom discharge type, is then discharged allowing the waste to transfer to
25 the drum. Absorbent is added in accordance with WIPP requirements. The tray liner is
26 included in a waste drum. The transfer sleeve is then cut using radiological control protocols,
27 the drum lid is attached, and contamination surveys performed on the outside of the drum.
28 The drum is then moved using a drum hauler within the airlock for staging in the utility room
29 (Room 106) or loaded on a trailer pending transfer to AMWTP.
1 If waste is spilled outside of containment pans (i.e., into the surrounding soil), operations
2 personnel will immediately use excavation equipment to collect the spilled material and
3 surrounding soil. Hand excavation by personnel in protective equipment may also be used to
4 collect the spilled material and surrounding soil. Inspections of the soil in the immediate vicinity
5 of waste tray secondary containment pans and the drum processing area is conducted on each
6 operating day using equipment-based cameras or cameras located throughout the RA as shown in
7 Exhibits D-3 and D-7, to ensure collection of any waste/material that is spilled. An inspection is
8 also be conducted if the treatment process is shut down for more than five days. Direct visual
9 inspection by personnel in PPE is completed during shifts when waste processing occurs.
10 During processing some spillage of waste may occur in the DPS. This may occur when
11 the waste is being inspected, when waste is being mixed with absorbents, and/or when the tray
12 liners are hoisted. This spillage will accumulate at the bottom of the DPS. It is cleaned out each
13 operating day, or as necessary for operations, by collecting the spillage and transferring to other
14 waste handling trays, and/or sweeping the material outside of the DPS to collection waste
15 handling trays via the attached debris slides. This waste is returned to the sorting table for
16 inclusion in repackaged waste.
17 It is a recognized situation that within WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 waste exhumation
18 facilities, contaminated soils are present from previous CERCLA operations. Periodic
19 equipment decontamination is performed within the retrieval area to achieve acceptable
20 radiological conditions on the equipment for required maintenance. Any portion of the
21 equipment (e.g., excavator, telehandler forklift, loader) that is contaminated with CERCLA
22 materials, such as contaminated soils, may require that the material be removed through spray
23 washing, brushing, or other means, and the associated wastes placed within the CERCLA
24 contaminated area. Equipment surfaces may also come in contact with RCRA waste (e.g.,
25 excavator bucket or thumb) and require decontamination. Waste material is removed through
26 spray washing, brushing, or other means. The waste material is collected in the excavator
27 secondary containment bucket or other secondary containment pan. The excavator secondary
28 containment bucket is a 4’-6” by 3’ by 2’-6” carbon steel container with a crossbar for the
29 excavator to lift. Waste from decontamination of RCRA contaminated equipment is contained
30 within the bucket, and then packaged out of the facility as RCRA waste.
1 Once drums have completed processing and have been loaded back onto the transport
2 trailer, staging of a loaded trailer may be required prior to returning the drums to AMWTP. Five
3 locations are used for the trailer storage areas. The first location is near WMF-1617 (3 trailers
4 maximum). The second location is near WMF-698 (2 trailers maximum). The third location is
5 near the bridge to AMWTP (1 trailer maximum), the fourth location is near WMF-1619 (3
6 trailers maximum), and the fifth location is near WMF-1621 (1 trailer maximum). These
7 locations are shown on Exhibit B-2. 80 drums or 14 waste boxes at a maximum may be staged
8 on the soft-sided transport trailer which provides weather protection.
9 Debris Repackage Project (DRP) Container Storage in WMF-1619
10 WMF-1619 is used for storing and processing waste containers received from AMWTP.
11 Container storage areas are located within Rooms 101/102/103 Service Bay (2 solid waste boxes,
12 8 drums, and 1 large box or 3,187 gallons capacity), Room 104 Equipment Airlock (4 standard
13 waste boxes or 2,693 gallon capacity), Room 105 Drum Packaging Stations (6 drums or 330
14 gallons capacity), and Room 106 Utility Area (4 standard waste boxes and 10 drums or 3,243
15 gallon capacity). The standard RCRA storage configuration (2-wide by 2-high) is used. These
16 areas are shown in Exhibit B-11. Drums/boxes that may contain liquids (i.e., before repackaging
17 and absorbent addition is completed) are stored on container storage secondary containment pans
18 to provide secondary containment. Aisle space is maintained for inspection personnel and
19 emergency equipment. Storage in Rooms 101, 102, 103, 104 and 105 is flexible within the room
20 to meet operational needs, but aisle space requirements are met in all configurations. Inspections
21 are completed via visual or camera inspections or viewing areas through windows. If waste
22 processing occurs during the shift, inspection of the RCRA areas is completed by direct visual
23 inspection. Required inspections on non-operational shifts (i.e., no waste processing activities)
24 are performed via facility cameras. The RCRA areas within the Retrieval Area are shown on
25 Exhibit B-10.
26 DRP Miscellaneous Treatment and Storage (X99) in WMF-1619
27 Processing waste at WMF-1619 is performed in the following areas: the Retrieval Area
28 (X99), the DPS stations (X99), and Room 103 Service Bay (X99). Miscellaneous storage (X99)
29 consists of staging of waste within secondary containment in the Retrieval Area prior to or
30 following processing, and staging
1 waste trays for the DPS stations. Soil sacks containing secondary waste may also be stored in
2 designated areas within the retrieval area.
3 WMF-1619 is being used to process waste containers from AMWTP that contain large
4 debris that cannot be handled at AMWTP. Waste boxes are placed on a Box Transfer Pan using
5 a forklift in Room 104 or crane in Room 103 prior to being processed in the Retrieval Area. The
6 Retrieval Area processing includes the following activities: staging waste in the retrieval area
7 associated with waste processing activities, opening waste containers, removing the container
8 from around the debris waste, segregating/sorting the loose debris into separate waste boxes,
9 opening/crushing inner containers with liquid content, absorbent addition for liquids with the
10 absorbed material being placed into the boxes of repackaged loose debris, segregation/treatment
11 of WIPP prohibited items, staging empty containers, and sizing waste to fit into containers. In
12 addition, the large debris items may be transferred into the service bay (Room 103) for manual
13 radiological decontamination. The decontamination process will include simple manual
14 decontamination by operations personnel in PPE, such as using hand spraying equipment (small
15 portable container with a wand or spray bottles), wiping by hand, brushes, carbon dioxide (CO2)
16 decon, etc. Liquids/gels used for decontamination are commercially available, non-solvent, and
17 non-ignitable (e.g., window cleaner, Radiac, Speedball, etc.). Absorbent addition to any liquid
18 decontamination wastes will also be performed (see Attachment 2 for approved absorbents).
19 The Drum Packaging Stations activities include segregation of prohibited items, addition
20 of absorbents to the waste in the tray as necessary, decontaminating containers, visual
21 examination by WIPP-qualified visual examiners to document compliance with the WIPP WAC,
22 and placing the waste into new containers. These activities will allow the repackaged waste to
23 meet the WIPP WAC or other disposition requirements. Containers staged in the retrieval area
24 are placed in waste tray secondary containment pans. Containers without liquids, solid debris on
25 a box transfer pan, and soil sacks with secondary waste do not require secondary containment.
26 The locations of the 9’ by 18’ staging areas within the RA are shown in Exhibit B-10, each area
27 contains two waste tray secondary containment pans. The waste tray secondary
1 containment pans are 9’-0” by 9’-0” by 6”, made of 1/4” carbon steel, and capable of holding
2 300 gallons of liquid. The pans have a 6” high frame underneath with forklift pockets to allow
3 for movement within the identified staging areas. The waste tray secondary containment pans
4 also have an 8’-0” by 8’-0” by 12’ support grate made of 1/4” carbon steel. The support grate
5 allows for inspection of the secondary containment and elevates the containers or waste trays to
6 prevent contact with accumulated liquids. Up to nine waste drums, four waste trays, or two
7 waste boxes may be placed on the waste tray secondary containment pans.
8 The location of the DRP container processing area within the Retrieval Area is shown in
9 Exhibit B-10. Exhibit D-5 provides a schematic of the Debris Box Containment and Secondary
10 Containment. The Box Transfer Pans are shown in Exhibits D-6a and D-6b. The Box Transfer
11 Pans are a 9’ by 6’ by 6” pan made of 1/4” carbon steel with steel C-channel base frame. The
12 Box Transfer Pans are capable of holding approximately 200 gallons of liquid. The Box
13 Transfer Pans are located inside a 12’ by 12’ by 10” secondary containment, constructed of 1/4”
14 carbon steel, which has a capacity of approximately 900 gallons.
15 To support DRP operational requirements, additional containment pans have been added
16 to the perimeter of the main secondary containment pan as shown in Exhibit D-5. Two 12’ by
17 12’ by 10” secondary containment pans have been added on either side of the main secondary
18 containment pan and three 12’ by 7’ by 10” pans, capacity of 520 gallons, have been added on
19 the excavator side. These pans are connected to the main sorting pan with u-shaped steel bridges
20 over the joints. Additional bridges were placed at any exposed critical pan junctions.
21 DRP treatment activities conducted on the Box Transfer Pan include any/all of the
22 following activities. Treatment activities within the Retrieval Area are completed using the
23 excavator with its various attachments (thumb, bucket, processor head/shears). If necessary,
24 personnel in PPE may complete treatment using hand tools. The lid of the waste box is removed,
25 and the box is disassembled. The empty box pieces are placed into new waste boxes and are
26 dispositioned as part of the waste stream. Loose debris is removed from the box, size reduced
27 as necessary, and placed into a separate waste box. Some of the boxes may contain small
28 amounts of liquids, any liquids are absorbed and placed into the box of repackaged loose debris
29 or segregated if necessary (see Attachment 2 for approved absorbents). Any inner
1 containers that may have liquid content are opened/crushed with the excavator thumb or bucket
2 to allow absorption of the liquid to take place.
3 Large debris items (pipe, metal, etc.) are transferred in the Box Transfer Pan to the
4 Service Bay. Decontamination is completed within the secondary containment by personnel in
5 PPE using simple manual processes such as hand spray equipment, wiping by hand, using
6 brushes, carbon dioxide decon, etc.

EXHIBIT D-6a. 9’ X 6’ Box Transfer Pan

EXHIBIT D-6a. 9’ X 6’ Box Transfer Pan


1 The DRP waste processing activities performed inside the retrieval enclosure are
2 observed through either excavator mounted cameras or cameras located within the facility
3 (see Exhibit D-7 for camera locations) that broadcast a video feed to the operations control
4 room. The operations foreman directs the operation through viewing these camera feeds and
5 communicates by radio with the equipment operator.
6 WIPP prohibited items are treated on the debris box containment or are segregated
7 using the excavator and staged in a waste tray located within a waste tray secondary
8 containment pan. If consistent with the facility safety basis, prohibited items are packaged
9 into drums through the DPS and transferred to AMWTP for processing and disposition. In
10 some cases, prohibited items are staged in waste trays in the retrieval area within secondary
11 containment after segregation in the DPS to provide operational flexibility. Prohibited items
12 staged inside the retrieval area, in a waste tray, are separated from other waste by distance
13 and/or barriers and handled as appropriate. After being emptied in the DPS, the waste trays
14 are returned to the RA and stacked on a waste tray secondary containment pan for reuse in the
15 process.
16 Secondary wastes are placed into drums, standard waste boxes, soil sacks, or other
17 waste boxes.
18 Once in the DPS, WIPP qualified Visual Examiners (VEs) will thoroughly inspect the
19 waste. Visual Examination (VE) Operators are qualified to the WIPP certified program. VE
20 is conducted at the DPSs in accordance with a WIPP certified procedure. The scope of this
21 procedure is “to document the physical waste form, confirm the Waste Stream description and
22 Waste Matrix Code, document that no prohibited items are present, and estimate the weight of
23 the waste material parameters.” Additional characterization is performed at the AMWTP.
24 The characterization information from these processes is included in the updated AK package
25 by AMWTP for shipment to WIPP.

EXHIBIT D-7. WMF-1619 Retrieval Enclosure Camera Plan for SRP and DRP Operations
1 Any further WIPP prohibited items identified are segregated for return to AMWTP
2 separate from the debris waste being processed or treated on the box transfer pan within the
3 retrieval area. Evidence of, or potential for, free liquid generation is mitigated using the
4 addition of absorbent followed by a thorough mix using simple DPS based tools (scoops,
5 small shovels, small rakes, etc.). At this point the waste is hoisted in its tray liner, moved and
6 then lowered to a new drum attached to the DPS load out port. A radiological transfer sleeve
7 ensures no contamination is spread during the discharge to the drum.
8 The liner, a bottom discharge type, is discharged allowing the waste to transfer to the
9 drum. Absorbent is added in accordance with WIPP requirements. The tray liner is included
10 in a waste drum. The transfer sleeve is then cut using radiological control protocols, the drum
11 lid is attached, and contamination surveys performed on the outside of the drum. The drum is
12 then moved using a drum hauler within the airlock for staging in the utility room (Room 106)
13 or loaded on a trailer pending transfer to AMWTP.
14 If waste is spilled outside of containment pans (i.e., into the surrounding soil),
15 operations personnel immediately uses excavation equipment to collect the spilled material
16 and surrounding soil. Hand excavation by personnel in protective equipment may also be
17 used to collect the spilled material and surrounding soil. Inspections of the soil in the
18 immediate vicinity of waste tray secondary containment pans and the drum processing area is
19 conducted on each operating day using equipment-based cameras or cameras located
20 throughout the RA as shown in Exhibit D-7, to ensure collection of any waste/material that is
21 spilled. An inspection is also conducted if the treatment process is shut down for more than
22 five days. Direct visual inspection by personnel in PPE is completed during shifts when
23 waste processing occurs.
24 During processing some spillage of waste may occur in the DPS. This may occur
25 when the waste is being inspected, when waste is being mixed with absorbents, and/or when
26 the tray liners are hoisted. This spillage will accumulate at the bottom of the DPS. It is
27 cleaned out each operating day, or as necessary for operations, by collecting the spillage and
28 transferring to other waste handling trays, and/or sweeping the material outside of the DPS to
29 collection waste handling trays via the attached debris slides. This waste is returned to the
30 debris box containment for inclusion in repackaged waste.
1 It is a recognized situation that within the WMF-1619 waste exhumation facility,
2 contaminated soils are present from previous CERCLA operations. Periodic equipment
3 decontamination is performed within the retrieval area to achieve acceptable radiological
4 conditions on the equipment for required maintenance. Any portion of the equipment (e.g.,
5 excavator, telehandler forklift, loader) that is contaminated with CERCLA materials, such as
6 contaminated soils, may require that the material be removed through spray washing,
7 brushing, or other means, and the associated wastes placed within the CERCLA contaminated
8 area. Equipment surfaces may also come in contact with RCRA waste (e.g., excavator bucket
9 or thumb) and require decontamination. Waste material is removed through spray washing,
10 brushing, or other means. The waste material is collected in the excavator secondary
11 containment bucket or other secondary containment pan. The excavator secondary
12 containment bucket is a 4’-6” by 3’ by 2’-6” carbon steel container with a crossbar for the
13 excavator to lift. Waste from decontamination of RCRA contaminated equipment is
14 contained within the bucket, absorbent added to liquids, and then packaged out of the facility
15 as RCRA waste.
16 D-1a(2) Container Management Practices [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.173]
17 All containers remain closed except for when waste is being added or removed or the
18 drum rings/lids are removed for processing.
19 Containers are kept closed during storage, except to add or remove waste. Containers
20 are not be opened, handled, or stored in a manner that may cause them to rupture or to leak.
21 RWMC personnel follow established procedures designed to minimize the probability of
22 waste container accidents. Containers within the WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 Service Bay
23 (Rooms 101, 102, and 103) may have the lid open during the work shift as needed to support
24 radiological control. However, the containers are closed at the end of the work shift in
25 accordance with 40 CFR 264.173.
26 Waste is generally received at RWMC by flatbed semitrailers or trucks from AMWTP.
27 Waste movement between buildings within RWMC is generally by flatbed semitrailers, truck,
28 or forklift. Waste containers are identified for liquid treatment by the AMWTP after liquid is
29 identified during Real-Time-Radiography scanning. Waste containers are identified by
30 barcode and the data that ensures the container meets the RWMC Waste Acceptance Criteria
1 (e.g., vent date, assay value, container size, barcode number, no aerosol cans, no roaster
2 oxides) is electronically transferred from the AMWTP data management system to the ICP
3 data management system. After data is reviewed and the transfer is approved by RWMC, the
4 truck with an attached trailer with waste containers is transported through the gate that
5 separates the two facilities. Radiological surveys are performed, and the transfer is received
6 by RWMC. The trailer is then transported to WMF-698, WMF-1617, or WMF-1619.
7 Since the wastes transferred from AMWTP to RWMC, and RWMC to AMWTP all
8 occur within the RWMC area, the transfers are not subject to Department of Transportation
9 requirements. RWMC requires the containers to be in good condition, labeled in accordance
10 with RCRA regulations, and identified in the transfer paperwork.
11 Containers of hazardous and/or mixed waste and debris generated within the RWMC
12 perimeter and stored in the container storage areas are labeled with a unique identification
13 number for location tracking. The containers are labeled in accordance with the RCRA
14 regulations.
15 Container loading and unloading activities are conducted according to established
16 procedures for:
17 · Work Control
18 · Receipt, inspection, and documentation of waste
19 · Operations at WMF-698, WMF-1617 and WMF-1619
20 · Non-destructive assay
21 · Log keeping practices and checklists
22 · Radiation and contamination control
23 · Industrial and fire safety
24 · As low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) radiation protection program
25 · Truck waste container unloading
1 · General waste movement within RWMC.
2 D-1a(3) Secondary Containment System Design and Operation [IDAPA 58.01.05.012
3 and 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 270.15(a) and (b), 264.175(a) through 264.175(d)]
4 Secondary containment for the containers that may contain free liquids (e.g., prior to
5 processing) in WMF-698 storage area is provided by drum storage secondary containment
6 pans described earlier in this section. All containers are elevated on a grate within the drum
7 storage secondary containment pans so that should a leak/spill occur, the primary container is
8 not in contact with any released material. The drum storage secondary containment pan
9 capacity is greater than the required 10 percent of the maximum container capacity.
10 Secondary containment for the container storage areas of WMF-1617 and WMF-1619
11 is also provided through the use of container storage secondary containment pans described
12 earlier in this section for those containers that may contain liquids (e.g., prior to processing).
13 Containers are elevated within the pans, and the pans provide sufficient capacity greater than
14 the required 10 percent of the maximum container capacity. Containers that have completed
15 processing through the drum packaging stations and have been visually verified to not contain
16 liquids, may be stored without secondary containment.
17 If liquid is observed in the drum storage secondary containment pan, the leaking
18 container is identified and either overpacked or transferred into WMF-1617 or WMF-1619 for
19 immediate processing. Liquids are removed from the spill containment pans through addition
20 of absorbent and removal of the solidified material in a timely manner.
21 The storage and treatment of waste is conducted inside the WMF-698, WMF-1617 and
22 WMF-1619 structures which prevent run-on of precipitation.
1 D-1b. Containers without Free Liquids
2 D-1b(1) Test for Free Liquids [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.15(b)(1)]
3 Wastes without free liquids to be stored in the container storage areas in WMF-1617
4 and WMF-1619 Rooms 105 and 106 and WMF-698 will have completed visual verification of
5 the contents through the drum packaging station. Waste in lined waste trays within the RA
6 will have also undergone visual verification on the sorting table/box transfer pan to ensure
7 that no free liquids are present in the waste tray. All other wastes are managed as containing
8 liquids.
9 D-1b(2) Description of Containers [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.171 and 264.172]
10 Containers to be used for waste storage include 55-gallon drums, 83-gallon drums, 85-
11 gallon drums, 110-gallon drums, soil sacks, standard waste boxes, cargo containers or other
12 waste boxes. If a container holding waste or debris is not in good condition, the waste or
13 debris is either overpacked or taken to the retrieval area for immediate processing.
14 Operating personnel visually inspect the container storage/staging areas in WMF-698,
15 WMF-1617, and WMF-1619 through direct visual examination, or by using cameras within
16 the retrieval area. Inspections are recorded and maintained at the facility for at least three
17 years. Details on inspections are provided in Attachment 4, Section F of this permit.
18 D-8. Miscellaneous Units [IDAPA 58.01.05.012 and 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 270.23 and
19 264.601]
20 Processing the SRP waste at the WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 facilities is performed in
21 three miscellaneous treatment units: the Retrieval Area (X99), the DPS stations (X99), and the
22 drum compactor (X99 and X02). Miscellaneous storage (X99) in the RA consists of staging
23 waste within secondary containment prior to processing and prior to the DPS or drum
24 compactor. The Retrieval Area includes the following activities: opening waste containers,
25 staging waste in the retrieval area associated with waste processing activities, removing waste
26 from the container onto the sorting table, segregating/sorting waste, venting containers,
27 opening/crushing inner containers with liquid content, absorbent addition for liquids,
28 segregation/treatment of WIPP prohibited items, staging empty drums and ancillaries (drums,
29 lids), wiping sludge from drum exteriors,
1 compacting/crushing empty containers with the excavator, and sizing waste to fit into
2 containers. The Drum Packaging Stations activities include segregation of prohibited items,
3 addition of absorbents to the waste in the tray as necessary, visual examination by WIPP-
4 qualified visual examiners to document compliance with the WIPP WAC, and placing the
5 waste into new containers. The Drum Compactor is used to compact drum carcasses and/or
6 liners and secondary waste, and also includes absorbent addition for any liquids from the
7 compaction process. These activities will allow the repackaged waste to meet the WIPP
8 WAC.
9 Processing the DRP waste at WMF-1619 is performed in miscellaneous treatment
10 units: the Retrieval Area (X99), the DPS stations (X99), and the Service Bay (X99).
11 Miscellaneous storage (X99) in the RA consists of staging waste within secondary
12 containment prior to processing and prior to the DPS. The Retrieval Area includes the
13 following activities: opening waste containers, staging waste in the retrieval area associated
14 with waste processing activities, removing waste from the container on the box transfer pan,
15 segregating/sorting waste, venting containers, opening/crushing inner containers with liquid
16 content, absorbent addition for liquids, segregation/treatment of WIPP prohibited items,
17 compacting/crushing empty containers with the excavator, and sizing waste to fit into new
18 containers. The Drum Packaging Stations activities include segregation of prohibited items,
19 addition of absorbents to the waste in the tray as necessary, visual examination by WIPP-
20 qualified visual examiners to document compliance with the WIPP WAC, and placing the
21 waste into new containers. These activities will allow the repackaged waste to meet the WIPP
22 WAC.
23 D-8a. Description of Miscellaneous Units [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.23(a)(1)
24 and (2)]
25 The description of the WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 facilities and miscellaneous unit
26 processes are detailed earlier in this section.
1 D-8b. Environmental Performance Standards for Miscellaneous Units [IDAPA
2 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 264.601 and 270.23(c)]
3 The miscellaneous treatment processes and storage located in WMF-1617 (RA, DPSs,
4 and drum compactor) and WMF-1619 (RA, DPSs, and Service Bay) are located, designed,
5 and operated in a manner to preclude the release of hazardous waste or hazardous constituents
6 that may have adverse effects on human health or the environment. The WMF-1617 and
7 WMF-1619 structures, and secondary containment pans (waste tray secondary containment
8 pans, sorting table secondary containment pan, drum compactor secondary containment pan,
9 DPSs, Box Transfer Pan), are configured, including a ventilation system for confinement of
10 radioactive and hazardous constituents, to prevent particulate releases to the environment.
11 Administrative/engineering controls for WMF-1617and WMF-1619 provide additional
12 assurance that hazardous materials are not released to the environment.
13 No viable pathway exists for migration of hazardous waste or hazardous constituents
14 from the mixed waste treated in the miscellaneous treatment units located in WMF-1617 and
15 WMF-1619 to ground water, and/or surface water, as all treatment is conducted within areas
16 that have impervious secondary containment. During HWMA/RCRA waste processing, any
17 spilled waste is cleaned up at the time the spill occurs. Procedural steps mandate removal of
18 all spilled material and any surrounding stained soils. Soils approximately 4” beyond the
19 extent of visible soil staining are removed in the event of a liquid spill to ensure that all
20 spilled material is removed. The waste/soil is removed using the excavator equipment, or
21 personnel in PPE with shovels. The collected material is returned to the sorting table or the
22 lined waste tray.
23 A potential pathway for release of waste constituents is through the exhaust air of the
24 WMF-1617 or WMF-1619 ventilation system. However, since all the waste to be processed
25 is radioactive mixed waste IDAPA 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR 264 Subpart CC) is not applicable.
26 Any radiological release would be limited to the period during which waste is being actively
27 treated. The minimization of release of radiological constituents through the HEPA-filtered
28 exhaust air system that potentially could have adverse effects on human health or the
29 environment is accomplished by the following:
1 (1) The treatment processes are controlled to minimize dust and airborne
2 particles.
3 (2) As a second stage of entrapment, any escaping waste constituents would
4 then have to pass through banks of HEPA filters. HEPA filters would trap any
5 particulate that may contain hazardous constituents.
6 (3) The ventilation systems have been proven effective in seven years of
7 operations.
8 D-8b(1) Miscellaneous Unit Wastes [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.601(a)(1),
9 264.601(b)(1), and 264.601(c)(1)]
10 The wastes to be treated in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 miscellaneous treatment units
11 are sludge or debris wastes that are currently managed at the AMWTP. The waste may
12 contain free liquids or WIPP-prohibited items. The miscellaneous treatments are designed to
13 make the final waste package acceptable for disposition to WIPP or other acceptable waste
14 disposal sites after return to AMWTP. The chemical characteristics of the wastes are
15 described in Attachment 2, Section C of this permit.
16 D-8b(2) Containment System [IDAPA 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR
17 264.601(b)(2) and 270.23(a)(2)]
18 The WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 structures and miscellaneous units (RA, DPSs, drum
19 compactor) are designed and operated to prevent the spread of contamination during treatment
20 activities. The facilities are designed to operate under negative pressure drawing air from less
21 to more contaminated areas. The ventilation air is filtered through HEPA filters prior to
22 exhaust. Secondary containment (container storage secondary containment pans, waste tray
23 secondary containment pans, sorting table secondary containment pan, drum compactor
24 secondary containment pan, DPSs, Box Transfer Pan, secondary containment pans) are used
25 to contain any liquids present within the waste during treatment.
1 D-8b(3) Site Air Conditions [IDAPA 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR
2 264.601(c)(4) and (5), and 270.23(b)]
3 The climatology and meteorology at the INL is described in DOE Programmatic
4 Spent Nuclear Fuel Management and INEEL Environmental Restoration and Waste
5 Management Programs Final Environmental Impact Statement (DOE/EIS – 0203F, Volume
6 1, Appendix B). A copy of this document has already been provided to DEQ.
7 D-8b(4) Prevention of Air Emissions [IDAPA 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR
8 264.601(c)(2) and 270.23(a)(2)]
9 The WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 miscellaneous units are designed to prevent the
10 spread of radiological contamination during treatment activities and are located within
11 secondary containment pans. HEPA-filtered exhaust ventilation is provided for WMF-1617
12 and WMF-1619 and the negative pressure induces ventilation through the attached airlock.
13 The exhaust ducts and fans are located to draw air from the least contaminated areas into the
14 most potentially contaminated areas. Fixed filter air samplers are located around the perimeter
15 of the building and continuous air monitors (CAMs) with alarms are also provided for each
16 discharge path (local filter/fan exhaust) to monitor for airborne radioactivity. Radiological
17 control technicians (RCTs) routinely count the perimeter sampler filters for radioactive
18 contamination. If airborne radiation above normal background levels is detected, the results
19 are evaluated and remedial actions are taken as appropriate to minimize the spread of
20 contamination and to ensure operational control, worker protection, and environmental
21 protection.
22 The HEPA filters remove approximately 99% of the particles in the exhaust air. The
23 differential pressure across the HEPA filters is recorded. The filters are changed due to
24 radiological loading and pressure drop. The filtered exhaust air is then released to the
25 atmosphere.
26 Since the waste to be treated/stored is a radioactive mixed waste, it is exempt from the
27 requirements of IDAPA 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR 264, Subpart CC).

6 Description Codes (IDCs) from the S3000 (homogeneous solids) and S4000 (soil/gravel) waste groups.
7 The waste to be accepted from AMWTP will be addressed in in the “Waste Matrix Code Reference
8 Manual,” RPT-TRUW-05, and “AMWTP Waste Stream Designations,” RPT-TRUW-12. The current
9 revisions to these reports are maintained as part of the operating record on the Electronic Document
10 Management System (EDMS).
11 Prior to accepting IDCs for treatment, the following must be complete: acceptable chemical
12 compatibility evaluation, acceptable knowledge (AK) documentation, and a review confirming the
13 hazardous waste numbers associated with each IDC are included in the permit.
14 Based on the waste acceptance process described above, wastes with the RCRA characteristics of
15 ignitibility (D001) or reactivity (D003) as defined in 40 CFR 261.21, “Characteristics of ignitibility,” and
16 40 CFR 261.23, “Characteristics of Reactivity,” are not permitted and will not be accepted for treatment
17 or storage at WMF-698, WMF-1617, and WMF-1619. Chemical compatibility evaluations are made
18 based on the waste characterization data prior to acceptance of IDCs for treatment and storage. Based on
19 the compatibility evaluations, treatment/storage operations will not intermix wastes that are incompatible.
20 Chemical compatibility evaluations will be part of the operating record on EDMS. Based on AK, RTR,
21 and assay, containers that have identified pressurized aerosol cans, pyrophoric waste, as defined in Permit
22 Condition VI.C.1., and roaster oxides wastes will not be accepted for treatment. Waste containers
23 identified through AK or RTR as potentially pyrophoric, (i.e., containing metal fines, turnings, shavings,
24 etc.) will not be accepted for treatment in WMF-1619.
25 Some of the waste streams have the potential to contain liquids that exhibit the characteristic of
26 corrosivity (D002). If found, the liquids will be absorbed, and the corrosivity characteristic removed to
27 ensure compliance with the WIPP acceptance criteria. The efficacy of the selected absorbents, Oil-Dri,
28 Aquaset, and Petroset, for the treatment of this waste stream, is detailed in “Managing Free Liquid in
1 Newly Generated Waste Drums,” RPT-228, Revision 0, dated June 14, 2007. This report is provided in
2 Book 3B, Appendix 3 of this Permit.
3 The treatment activities to be performed under this permit will affect the current characterization
4 information (e.g., liquid removal). Once in the DPS, WIPP qualified Visual Examiners (VEs) thoroughly
5 inspect the waste. Visual Examination (VE) Operators are qualified to the WIPP certified program, and
6 VE is conducted at the DPSs in accordance with a WIPP certified procedure. The scope of this procedure
7 is “to document the physical waste form, confirm the Waste Stream description and Waste Matrix Code,
8 document that no prohibited items are present, and estimate the weight of the waste material parameters.”
9 Additional characterization will be performed at the AMWTP. The characterization information from
10 these processes will be included in the updated AK package by AMWTP for shipment to WIPP.

1 F. PROCEDURES TO PREVENT HAZARDS
2 The waste management units addressed in this permit are designed and operated to minimize
3 exposure of hazardous constituents to the general public, operating personnel, and the environment. This
4 section describes the procedures and equipment/structures used at these units to help prevent, mitigate, or
5 respond to environmental or human health hazards. Also described in this section are the inspection plans
6 and schedules at these units to ensure proper maintenance and operation.
7 The waste management units addressed in this permit are located at the Radioactive Waste
8 Management Complex (RWMC), Subsurface Disposal Area (SDA), Buildings WMF-698, WMF-1617,
9 WMF-1619 and Outside Storage Areas. Book 3A, Attachment 1 of this permit describes the operations
10 of these units.
11 F-1. Security
12 Specific security measures taken for the RWMC SDA include fencing, warning signs, keycard
13 access or personnel sign-in, and building locks.
14 F-1a. Security Procedures and Equipment [IDAPA 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012;
15 40 CFR 264.14 and 270.14(b)(4)]
16 A security system, physical control procedures, and equipment control access to the RWMC
17 SDA. The security system is operated by a security force under a contract with the U. S. Department of
18 Energy, Idaho Operations Office (DOE-ID).
19 The security force’s operations are consistent with DOE-ID directives and orders on access
20 control. DOE operates a personnel security clearance program to ensure that employees that are required
21 to have a clearance to perform their duties are evaluated and cleared consistent with DOE-ID security
22 policies.
23 Fencing, guarded gates and uniformed guards with communication devices are used at RWMC to
24 provide facility security. There are internal communication devices, such as phones or two-way radios in
25 occupied buildings at the RWMC SDA. The same communication devices are used for communication
26 outside the plant. The RWMC SDA uses radio network announcements for announce critical information
27 regarding security and safety. A siren system is used for evacuation and take cover alerts.
1 F-1a(1) 24-Hour Surveillance System [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.14(b)(1)]
2 Security at the RWMC is maintained by a staff of trained security guards, who monitor the entry
3 and egress of people and material from the RWMC facility. The main RWMC guard gate (located at
4 WMF-637) at the RWMC is staffed with guards 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There are other gates
5 into the RWMC, and they are either locked or staffed with guards. The guards also perform other security
6 functions within the plant premises, including patrolling the perimeter fence and areas throughout the
7 RWMC on a 24-hour basis.
8 F-1a(2) Barrier and Means to Control Entry
9 The treatment, storage, or disposal facilities (TSDFs) at RWMC SDA are enclosed within a
10 fence. All gates into RWMC are either locked or manned with security guards.
11 F-1a(2)(a) Barrier [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.14(b)(2)(I)]
12 The RWMC facility is located approximately 42 air miles west of the largest nearby population
13 area, Idaho Falls, Idaho. The entire RWMC facility area is enclosed within a fence. There are gates in
14 the perimeter fences, and they are either locked or manned. The locked gates can be opened by patrols
15 when requested.
16 F-1a(2)(b) Means to Control Entry [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.14(b)(2)(ii)]
17 Employees, sub-contractors, or vendors that have completed required access training and have
18 keycard access are not escorted in the general RWMC interior.
19 Individuals that have the required access training but do not have key card access, sign an
20 “Employee Log” and are allowed into RWMC without being escorted.
21 Individuals that do not have the required access training and do not have keycard access are
22 escorted and sign a “Visitor Log” to gain access to RWMC.
23 These entry procedures into the RWMC prevent access into Hazardous Waste Management Act
24 (HWMA)/Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)-regulated units by the general public and
25 visitors.
1 For accountability reasons, all persons entering the RWMC must either enter through the card
2 reader turnstile as they enter or sign the RWMC entrance log (“Visitor Log” or “Employee Log” as
3 applicable). When personnel leave the RWMC, they exit through the card reader turnstiles or sign out at
4 the guard gate.
5 F-1a(3) Warning Signs [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.14(c)]
6 Warning signs that are visible and legible from at least 25 ft are posted at guard gates and on the
7 fence around the RWMC SDA. Entrances into HWMA/RCRA-regulated storage or treatment areas will
8 have, at a minimum, signs reading “DANGER–Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out.”

3 40 CFR 270.14(b)(5), 264.15, 264.33, 264.174, 264.195, and 264.254]
4 The schedules for inspecting equipment vital in preventing, detecting, and responding to
5 environmental or human health hazards are summarized in Appendix F-1. Results of inspections are
6 recorded on forms or operating logs. Examples of inspection forms are found in Appendix F-2.
7 Inspection records are placed in the appropriate RCRA inspection logs as part of the operating
8 record. The records are stored at RWMC or other INL approved records storage area and are retained for
9 the life of the regulated unit.
10 Inspection records include the time and date of the inspection, the printed name and signature of
11 the inspector, a notation of observations made, and the date and nature of any repairs or other remedial
12 actions. The inspection forms show the inspections, frequencies, and responsibilities. Examples of the
13 inspection forms are provided in Appendix F-2. Other, similar forms containing the same substantive
14 information may be used to document these inspections.
15 WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 Miscellaneous Treatment Processes
16 For the WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 miscellaneous treatment processes addressed in this permit,
17 trained personnel inspect and/or monitor the equipment and processing locations as summarized in
18 Appendix F-1. The process areas are visually inspected on a daily basis during operations by the
19 operations personnel, or every 5 days during extended shut down periods.
20 WMF-698, WMF-1617, WMF-1619, Outside Storage Areas Container Storage, and WMF-1617 and
21 WMF-1619 Miscellaneous Storage
22 The WMF-698, WMF-1617, WMF-1619, Outside storage areas container storage areas, and
23 WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 Miscellaneous storage areas are visually inspected weekly to ensure the
24 integrity of the containers stored. Cameras may also be used to perform inspections of the container
25 staging areas in the WMF-1617 WMF-1619 Retrieval Areas. Loading/unloading areas are inspected on a
26 daily basis when in use.
27 The inspections are intended to detect deterioration or conditions that threaten human health or
28 the environment. The inspection records include conditions noted within the treatment and storage areas
1 as well as the general building. The inspection records list completed inspections and any remedial action
2 status.
3 F-2a(1) Types of Problems [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.15(b)(3)]
4 The inspection schedules found in Appendix F-1 list types of problems looked for during
5 inspections.
6 F-2a(2) Frequency of Inspection [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.15(b)(4)]
7 The frequency of inspections or observations, and the inspecting organization are listed in the
8 schedules in Appendix F-1.
9 If a problem is found during an inspection surveillance or performance of a preventive
10 maintenance inspection or action in progress, it is reviewed and confirmed by the applicable supervision
11 or systems engineer. If the deficiency warrants immediate attention, shift supervision will be informed,
12 and if necessary, the affected process will be immediately shut down. All items observed during an
13 inspection that require repair, replacement, corrective action, or other attention are documented on the
14 associated record sheet and tracked until final resolution through the RCRA remedial process. If the
15 responsible supervision determines the need, an engineering evaluation will be conducted to determine
16 whether operations can proceed, repair must be made, or materials must be replaced. Environmental and
17 facility personnel work together to decide whether or not a remedial action is required and to plan the
18 required action. Remedial actions are documented.
19 In those cases where an off-normal operational event (such as ventilation upset and potential
20 radioactive contamination) prevents access to an area where inspections are performed, a RCRA remedial
21 will be opened and the remedial will be noted in the spaces on the inspection forms where the inspections
22 or readings would normally be recorded. The RCRA remedial will be closed, and inspections resumed, as
23 soon as the upset conditions have been corrected and the area released for re-entry.
24 F-2b. Specific Process Inspection Requirements
25 F-2b(1) Container Inspection [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.174]
26 Facility personnel visually inspect the waste containers and the container and miscellaneous storage
27 areas (WMF-698, WMF-1617 Airlock, WMF-1617 Retrieval Area, WMF-1619 Airlock, WMF-1619
28 Retrieval Area and Outside storage areas)
1 addressed in this permit on a weekly basis, when waste is present. During visual inspections, the waste
2 containers/trays are viewed for signs of deterioration, leaks, liquids, etc., as identified on the inspection
3 forms.
4 F-2b(8) Miscellaneous Unit Inspections [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(5)]
5 An inspection program for the miscellaneous treatment processes in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619
6 is in place to ensure compliance with the environmental performance standards specified in Section D-8
7 in Attachment 1 of this permit.
8 The WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 process ventilation systems are monitored for high differential
9 pressures in the HEPA filters as a part of normal operating procedures.

1 H. PERSONNEL TRAINING
2 This section outlines and describes the training program for personnel involved in the
3 management of hazardous and mixed waste at treatment, storage, and disposal (TSD) units at the
4 Radioactive Waste Management Complex (RWMC) – Subsurface Disposal Area (SDA) addressed in this
5 permit.
6 A training program has been implemented to ensure that personnel involved in the management
7 of hazardous and mixed waste at RWMC TSD units receive training consistent with the requirements of
8 the Idaho Administrative Procedures Act (IDAPA) 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012 [Title 40 Code of
9 Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 264.16 and 270.14]. The training program is designed to ensure that
10 personnel are trained to hazardous waste management procedures including, but not limited to,
11 inspections, normal operations, emergency procedures, equipment, systems, and contingency plan
12 implementation. Duties performed at the TSD units will be performed in a safe, disciplined, and
13 professional manner.
14 H-1. Outline of Training Program [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.16(a)(1)]
15 Training programs are developed using a systematic approach to training (SAT). The SAT
16 process involves:
17 · Analyzing tasks to determine the training requirements
18 · Designing a plan to satisfy the training requirements
19 · Developing plans and all supporting training materials
20 · Implementing the training plans
21 · Evaluating the effectiveness of the training and making recommendations for changes.
22 The SAT process is used to determine the training requirement for each task listed in Table H-1.
23 The training program for TSD unit personnel involves a combination of formal [classroom, group
24 instruction, on-the-job training (OJT), etc.] and informal training sessions (one-on-one instruction,
25 required reading, etc.). The training requirements for each position are identified in Table H-1. Lesson
26 plans and OJT guides are developed to support tasks identified in Table H-1.
1 Programs prepared by the TSD training organization provide the requirements to be completed
2 by the individual during training. As the program is satisfactorily completed, it is verified and
3 documented in their training records.
4 The training program is upgraded as needed in response to changes in job descriptions, job
5 reassignment, process or procedural changes, technological changes, or implementation of new
6 regulatory requirements that affect TSD unit operations. Revisions to the training program are approved
7 by the training manager and the TSD unit manager (training director) for the specific TSD unit and the
8 job analysis data is updated to reflect the changes in the training requirements.
9 TSD unit management works with subject matter experts to identify personnel training
10 requirements. The TSD unit training organization (1) schedules and/or provides the training, (2) revises
11 and updates training material as needed, and (3) maintains training documentation. The TSD unit
12 training organization maintains individual training records for TSD unit employees.
13 H-1a. Job Tasks [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.16(d)(1), 264.16(d)(2)]
14 The job tasks for personnel involved with hazardous waste management at RWMC TSD units are
15 included in Table H-1 “Minimum Training Matrix for TSD unit Personnel” Personnel are trained to those
16 sections of the permit, which are pertinent to their specific job assignments.
17 Security Guards – The Security personnel are not stationed at the permitted units nor are they
18 involved in the management or handling of the waste. Security personnel receive training from the
19 security organization relative to their positions and the facilities they serve. Therefore, training of
20 security personnel is not discussed further in this section.
21 On Scene Commander – is the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Fire Department Chief. The
22 INL Firefighters serve the INL Site in fighting fires and containing major spills, including spills of waste
23 from waste management units. The INL Fire Department conducts a self-contained training program for
24 their personnel, which includes procedures for handling fires and spill emergencies involving hazardous
25 materials and hazardous mixed waste at the INL Site. Therefore, training of fire fighters is not discussed
26 further in this section.
27 Emergency Director (ED) – is trained on the INL (Site-wide) and Idaho Completion Project
28 (ICP) Emergency Plan (EP)/Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Contingency Plan (CP) or
29 Industrial Safety and Hygiene Program as part of his/her duties. The ED will be informed by the
1 Emergency Action Manager (EAM) or facility personnel at RWMC. Therefore, training of ED is not
2 discussed further in this section.
3 H-1b. Training Content, Frequency, and Techniques [IDAPA 58.01.05.008;
4 40 CFR 264.16 and (d)(3)]
5 The TSD unit training program consists of a combination of classroom instruction and OJT.
6 Additionally, TSD unit employees receive new employee orientation and training. [All employees
7 working at or assigned as part-time/frequent visitor to Site facilities are required to complete annual
8 facility access training and general employee radiation training (GERT) unless they are currently trained
9 as radiation workers.]
10 The initial training includes a general orientation of INL and TSD unit procedures including
11 evacuation and alert procedures, training requirements, and emergency equipment locations. The initial
12 training provides TSD unit personnel with training commensurate with their job assignments in the
13 following areas:
14 · General description of the RWMC SDA
15 · Job-related procedures, policies, and instructions
16 · Radiological health and safety program
17 · Fire protection program
18 · Hazards associated with the TSD unit.
19 RCRA training is conducted annually for RWMC TSD unit employees to address changes that
20 have occurred which include such topics as permit status, permit requirements, contingency and
21 inspection plan implementation, and hazardous waste management procedures for the TSD unit(s) to
22 which they are assigned.
23 The following major knowledge areas are included and evaluated based on job position and
24 formal criteria identified in the job analysis:
25 · RCRA requirements as they relate to RWMC unit operations
26 · Hazardous materials
1 · RWMC TSD unit systems and components (including waste treatment processes and
2 operations)
3 · Normal operating procedures and shutdown procedures
4 · Emergency or off-normal operating procedures
5 · Inspections and equipment maintenance
6 · Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and related health and safety
7 requirements
8 · RWMC TSD unit and operational/administrative procedures.
9 TSD unit work and maintenance is performed by appropriate personnel whose qualifications
10 have been verified before beginning work.
11 Employees may be given written and/or oral examinations, operational evaluations, and reviews
12 to ensure that they are adequately trained relative to their job tasks. Results of examinations, written or
13 oral evaluations, and reviews are documented. All completed qualification standards, checklists,
14 examinations, written evaluations, and documented oral evaluations are maintained in each individual’s
15 training record.
16 Table H-1 shows the task training requirements for TSD unit personnel involved in
17 hazardous/mixed waste operations at RWMC TSD units addressed in this permit. TSD unit personnel
18 may receive additional training beyond that shown in Table H-1. This training is documented and
19 included in employee training records.
20 Occasionally, TSD unit personnel attend training classes conducted external to the INL or
21 conducted at the INL Site by non-INL subcontract personnel. In order to verify an employee’s attendance
22 at these training courses, a copy of the class certification or other documentation is maintained in the
23 individual’s training record.
1 H-1c. Training Director [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.16(a)(2)]
2 For all TSD units, the facility manager (training director) functions in conjunction with his/her
3 designee(s) to insure that all segments and responsibilities associated with the training program are
4 accomplished. The training director provides overall leadership and management direction to the TSD
5 unit training organization. The director’s duties include the following:
6 · Provide direction to the TSD unit training organization
7 · Ensure that performance of training personnel is evaluated
8 · Approve TSD unit training program
9 · Ensure that all program objectives and requirements are satisfied and that the training
10 program meets the requirements of IDAPA 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR 264.16) and 29 CFR
11 1910.120.
12 The training director or his/her designee(s) is responsible for ensuring that TSD unit personnel
13 are trained in waste management and contingency plan implementation, including emergency procedures,
14 and for ensuring that TSD unit personnel receive training appropriate to their tasks. The TSD unit
15 training content is updated for any facility changes.

1 H-1d. Relevance of Training to Job Tasks [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.16(a)(2)]
2 Individual training program profiles are prepared for each TSD unit position that requires a
3 formal training program.
4 At a minimum, each individual training program profile identifies the following:
5 · Job description
6 · Qualifications
7 · Training requirements.
8 Profiles typically identify qualification requirements. Occasionally, a position may require
9 specialized training. Special-case training is documented in individual training records. Profiles include
10 requirements for hazardous/mixed waste management or handling and emergency response training.
11 Supervisors have the responsibility for evaluating training requirements for TSD employees.
12 These supervisors receive additional training in how to conduct and evaluate OJT.
13 Individuals who demonstrate an equivalency for specific requirements or prerequisites identified

3 264.32]
4 F-3a(1) Internal Communications [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.32(a)]
5 Buildings WMF-698, WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 are equipped with communication devices
6 (e.g., phones, alarm systems, etc.) capable of summoning emergency assistance. The personnel involved
7 in the operation have immediate access to emergency communication devices. If the work requires
8 restricted entry, a second person is stationed outside the restricted area to summon emergency personnel
9 and provide assistance as required. If there is ever just one employee at the TSD while the unit is
10 operating, that employee will be provided immediate access to a communication device for summoning
11 emergency assistance.
12 F-3a(2) External Communications [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.32(b)]
13 RWMC communication devices are capable of summoning emergency assistance. The RWMC
14 EAM and the WCC use communication devices that provide direct access to external emergency response
15 agencies.
16 F-3a(3) Emergency Equipment [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.32(c)]
17 Exhibits G-1, G-2 and G-3 in the contingency plan, Attachment 7 Section G, Book 3 of this
18 permit, identify the evacuation routes and locations of safety equipment for the RWMC SDA. Examples
19 of safety equipment available for spill control at the RWMC SDA may include the following:
20 – Plastic buckets – Chemical spill warning/danger signs
21 – Spill control pillows – Radioactive waste bags
22 – Safety rope – Spill Signs
23 – pH indicator – Acid/caustic neutralizers
24 – Shovel – Smear paper and envelopes
1 – Pencils, grease pencils – Radiological tags/signs
2 – Hazardous material pigs – Hazardous material bags
3 – Safety showers – Eye wash stations
4 During monthly inspections any missing equipment is replaced and eye wash preventive
5 maintenance status is inspected to determine if it is current. The safety and emergency equipment listed
6 below are located in occupied areas at of WMF-698, WMF-1617, and WMF-1619.
7 · Portable fire extinguishers
8 · Spill control cabinets
9 · Evacuation alarm system
10 · Communication devices (two-way radios).
11 Buildings WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 use smoke/fire detection cameras for fire protection.
12 These cameras display in the facility control room. These systems are connected to alarms at the Fire
13 Alarm Center, located at the Central Facilities Area (CFA). WMF-698 has manual pull boxes, local
14 alarm system, and alarm to the fire station. Additionally, portable fire extinguishers are located
15 throughout the buildings.
16 F-3a(4) Water For Fire Control [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.32(d)]
17 The RWMC firewater system includes a 250,000-gallon tank (WMF-727) and a 500,000-gallon
18 tank (FW-TK-4301). Makeup water for firewater storage tank WMF-727 is normally supplied from the
19 potable water well/pump system. Makeup water for FW-TK-4301 is normally supplied from WMF-1616
20 deep well pump house. If necessary, either firewater tank can be filled from the other firewater tank by
21 using the firewater pumps for the other tank. Normal Static pressure (125–142 psi) is maintained in the
22 firewater system by the jockey pump FW-P-3904 located in WMF-639. If FW-PIV-DM10 is open, then
23 the two primary 2,000 gpm potable water pumps (PW-P-0302 and PW-P-0303) in WMF-603 can
24 maintain static pressure.
25 In the event of a pressure drop, two 2,000 gal per minute (gpm) electric and diesel-driven pumps
26 in WMF-639 and a 1,500 gpm diesel pump in WMF-743, provide the required water flow for the
27 firewater system. In the event of a commercial power outage, firewater would be supplied to the system
28 by the diesel-driven pump, 2,000 gpm (FW-P-3902) located in WMF-639 and is backed up by the 1,500
1 gpm, diesel-driven pump (FW-P-4301) located in WMF-743. The diesel-driven pump in WMF-743 starts
2 when firewater header pressure drops below 85 psi.
3 Firewater is supplied to the RWMC via a 10-in. diameter main line in the Transuranic Storage
4 Area (TSA) and the Administration and Operation areas, which is reduced to 6 or 8-in. feeder lines. The
5 fire main reduces to 8-in in diameter as it leaves the Operations area, feeding the SDA.
6 An active fire water line runs adjacent to the designated waste retrieval zone within WMF-1617
7 (southeast corner of building footprint) and is protected by a concrete cover. Fire water hydrants are
8 available in the SDA.
9 F-3b. Aisle Space Requirement [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.35]
10 WMF-698 will use a 2- wide by 2-high configuration in rows that are 24 drums deep. Secondary
11 containment pans will be located under the containers to provide secondary containment for free liquids.
12 Additional information on the secondary containment pans is found in Attachment 1, Sections B and D.
13 Aisle space is provided as necessary for egress of inspection personnel and emergency equipment (center
14 aisle will be maintained at 20 feet wide with 3 feet between rows and 1 foot around the perimeter of the
15 building).
16 The WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 service bay rooms (101/102/103), equipment airlock room
17 (104), DPS room (105) and utility area room (106) will maintain aisle space as necessary for egress of
18 inspection personnel and emergency equipment (a minimum of 3 feet between container rows and 1 foot
19 perimeter space will be maintained to allow for container removal and inspector egress).
20 F-4. Preventive Procedures, Structures, and Equipment
21 WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 were designed so that process and storage areas are maintained at a
22 negative pressure. The HVAC systems in these buildings were designed for the air flow to originate in
23 the areas with the least negative pressure and flow to the areas with a higher negative pressure. Thus, air
24 flows from areas with less potential for contamination to areas with greater potential for contamination.
25 The designs of the HVAC systems and buildings work together to contain wastes, and prevent the wastes
26 from making contact with the environment.
1 WMF-698 ventilation is a draw-through system to prevent the accumulation of volatile organic
2 compounds from equipment exhaust. Dust filters are installed at various locations in the walls to filter the
3 air drawn into the enclosure. The exhaust is not filtered.
4 Storage and treatment areas may have remote capabilities, such as excavators for waste retrieval,
5 operational requirements, and the movement of wastes as necessary. Additionally telescoping forklifts
6 (telehandlers) may be used to transport waste to the drum packaging station (DPS), where waste is
7 visually examined to verify conformance with waste acceptance requirements and then packaged into
8 clean 55-gallon drums, standard waste boxes (SWB), or other waste boxes for interim storage awaiting
9 final waste disposition. WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 ventilation uses four separate HEPA filtered exhaust
10 fans to provide redundant capability. The fans discharge to a manifold duct. For high activity waste as
11 required, operations can use the manifold to direct the exhaust air through another filter bank, and out
12 through the stack (see drawings 783977 and 767855 in Appendix 1). Alpha Constant Air Monitors
13 (CAMs) are provided on each HEPA filter/fan unit discharge.
14 F-4a. Unloading Operations [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(8)(I)]
15 Trucks, forklifts, or other equipment are used to deliver mixed waste and debris for storage or
16 treatment in the units addressed in this permit.
17 F-4b. Run-off [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(8)(ii)]
18 The treatment units and storage areas for waste with the potential for free liquids that are
19 addressed in this permit are located within fully enclosed buildings (WMF-698, WMF-1617 and WMF-
20 1619). The area surrounding each building slopes away from the building, carrying any storm water
21 toward the streets, where the water is collected and diverted away from the building. The buildings/areas
22 addressed in this permit are outside of the 100-year flood plain boundary. The outside storage areas used
23 for non-liquid secondary waste are paved to carry storm water away from the storage areas. Containers in
24 the outside storage are elevated above the pavement.
25 F-4c. Water Supplies [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(8)(iii)]
26 Contamination of water supplies by spills of mixed waste is prevented by storage and treatment
27 being completed within secondary containment pans. See Attachment 1, Sections B and D for additional
28 information on storage and treatment being completed within secondary containment pans.
1 F-4d. Equipment and Power Failure [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(8)(iv)]
2 Upon loss of commercial power, activities are stopped. Standby generators are provided to
3 assume the electrical loads of WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 exhaust systems that are maintained as standby
4 circuits. Emergency lighting and the HVAC systems in the building resume operation to ensure
5 personnel safety. When commercial power is restored, operations may continue.
6 Upon total loss of power (i.e., the standby generators fail to pick up the load), activities are
7 stopped. Personnel evacuate the building as necessary. When commercial power is restored, operations
8 may continue.
9 F-4e. Personnel Protection Equipment [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(8)(v)]
10 Buildings WMF-698, WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 are designed with various features that prevent
11 undue exposure of personnel to mixed waste. The HVAC systems of WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 are
12 designed to provide air flow from areas with less potential for contamination to areas with greater
13 contamination potential. WMF-698 operates as a waste storage area with limited air movement for
14 building cooling and equipment exhaust removal. Constant air monitors and remote area monitors (WMF-
15 1617 and WMF-1619 only), and RCT surveys (both buildings) are used to monitor all areas and aid in the
16 detection of radiological contamination. See Attachment 1, Section D8b(4) for additional WMF-1617
17 and WMF-1619 monitoring information. Operations at the building are conducted according to written
18 procedures. Emergency equipment is available at the facilities. See Section F-3a(3) of this permit for a
19 list of equipment available for emergency use, and see Exhibits G-1 through G-3 in the contingency plan
20 for locations of this equipment.
21 Items with the highest radiation levels are treated remotely. Workers wear personal protective
22 equipment as necessary and dictated by procedure, when handling or treating wastes, including equipment
23 such as respirators, gloves, and boots.
24 Pre-job briefings are held, as necessary, to ensure understanding of procedures, safety hazards,
25 and radiological concerns. Job safety analyses are completed as necessary.
26 F-4f. Releases to the Atmosphere [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(8)(vi)]
27 In the event of an airborne release from the WMF-1617 or WMF-1619 waste management units
28 addressed in this permit, the ventilation system in the building will direct hazardous constituents to the
29 building’s HEPA filtered off-gas system, which minimizes releases to the atmosphere.
1 At WMF-1617 and WMF-1619, air from the storage and treatment units is drawn through HEPA
2 filters that remove particles in the exhaust air. From the exhaust plenums, the filtered exhaust air is
3 discharged to a manifold duct. For high activity waste, as required, operations can use the manifold to
4 direct the exhaust air through another filter bank and out through the stack.
5 At WMF-698, all wastes to be stored in the container storage areas will be stored in closed
6 containers in order to minimize the release of hazardous constituents.
7 A container holding hazardous or mixed waste must always be closed during storage. At WMF-
8 1617 and WMF-1619, opening of containers will only be performed for treatment, to add/remove waste,
9 sort, segregate, or for sampling for verifying waste acceptance criteria. Containers of solid hazardous
10 and/or mixed wastes may be consolidated into other DOT/UN containers for storage. Approved
11 procedures and DOT/UN rules are used in conjunction with guidelines listed in 40 CFR 264, Appendix V,
12 to determine compatibility or incompatibility of materials before consolidation is performed into
13 approved containers for storage.
14 F-5. Prevention of Reaction of Ignitable, Reactive, and Incompatible Wastes
15 F-5a. Precautions to Prevent Ignition or Reaction of Ignitable or Reactive Waste [IDAPA
16 58.05.01.012 and 58.05.01.008; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(9) and 264.17(a)]
17 Container storage of wastes will not be limited to non-liquid, physically solid waste forms.
18 Waste matrices will be evaluated by INL facility personnel for free liquids prior to acceptance into the
19 container storage units, and any wastes containing free liquids will be stored within drum storage
20 secondary containment pans. The liquids will be treated through absorbent addition on the sorting table
21 in the RA or in the DPSs.
22 The waste to be accepted from AMWTP will be addressed in the “Waste Matrix Code Reference
23 Manual,” RPT-TRUW-05, and “AMWTP Waste Stream Designations,” RPT-TRUW-12. The current
24 revisions to these reports are maintained as part of the operating record on the Electronic Document
25 Management System (EDMS).
26 Prior to accepting IDCs for treatment, the following must be complete: acceptable chemical
27 compatibility evaluation, AK documentation, and a review confirming the hazardous waste numbers
28 associated with each IDC are included in the permit.
1 Wastes with the RCRA characteristics of ignitibility (D001) or reactivity (D003) are not
2 permitted for treatment or storage at WMF-698, WMF-1617, and WMF-1619. Chemical compatibility
3 evaluations are completed and made based on the waste characterization data prior to acceptance of IDCs
4 for treatment and storage. Based on the compatibility evaluations, treatment/storage operations will not
5 intermix wastes that are incompatible. Chemical compatibility evaluations will be part of the operating
6 record on EDMS. The evaluations will be placed in the facility operating record. Based on AK, RTR, and
7 assay, containers that have identified pressurized aerosol cans, pyrophoric waste, as defined in Permit
8 Condition VI.C.1., and roaster oxides wastes will not be accepted for treatment.

40 CFR 264.51 Purpose and implementation of Contingency Plan. (a) Each owner or operator must have a Contingency Plan for his facility. The Contingency Plan must be designed to minimize hazards to human health or the environment from fires, explosions, or any unplanned sudden or non-sudden release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water. |
The Idaho Completion Project (ICP) portion of the Radioactive Waste Management Complex (RWMC) Subsurface Disposal Area (SDA) (hereinafter referred to as the RWMC) is designed, constructed, and operated to exclude or isolate hazardous incidents such as fires, explosions and/or unplanned sudden or non-sudden releases of mixed or hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water. The RWMC SDA location, operation, site plan and descriptions/information are presented in detail in Section B, Facility Description, of this permit. This Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) contingency plan matrix discusses emergency response at RWMC. |
|
|
This matrix addresses emergency actions to protect human health, the environment, and RWMC facilities and equipment in an event originating from or affecting the permitted units, comprised of the Subsurface Disposal Area (SDA) facilities – WMF-698, WMF-1617, WMF-1619, and 5 outside storage areas. |
|
|
The Idaho Cleanup Project (ICP) Emergency Plan/RCRA Contingency Plan (ICP EP/RCRA CP) is the implementing document for emergency response across the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and is written to comply with requirements that are in addition to those of the Idaho Hazardous Waste Management Act (HWMA)/RCRA. This matrix provides the HWMA/RCRA contingency plan requirements that are being implemented through the ICP EP/RCRA CP. |
|
(b) The provisions of the plan must be carried out immediately whenever there is a fire, explosion, or release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents which could threaten human health or the environment. |
The contingency plan is designed to provide the proper preparation and necessary response planning to prevent or minimize hazards to human health and the environment from fires, explosions, or any release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents. The provisions of the contingency plan are carried out immediately whenever a fire, explosion, spill, or release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents that could threaten human health or the environment occurs. Minor incidents (those that can be controlled with on-Site resources and do not threaten human health or the environment) are managed by trained facility personnel according to the provisions of this plan. Such responses are not considered activation of the contingency plan. |
|
40 CFR 264.53 Copies of Contingency Plan A copy of the Contingency Plan and all revisions to the Contingency Plan must be: |
|
|
(a) Maintained at the facility; and |
The contingency plan, with all subsequent revisions, will be maintained with the RCRA permit at the facility at various locations, including the RWMC Shift Manager’s office. |

40 CFR 264.54 Amendment of the Contingency Plan. |
|
|
The Contingency Plan must be reviewed, and immediately amended, if necessary, whenever: (a) The facility permit is revised; (b) The plan fails in an emergency; (c) The facility changes-in its design, construction, operation, maintenance, or other circumstances-in a way that materially increases the potential for fires, explosions, or releases of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents, or changes the response necessary in an emergency; (d) The list of emergency coordinators changes; or (e) The list of emergency equipment changes. |
The contingency plan is reviewed and immediately amended, if necessary, whenever: The RCRA permit is modified. The contingency plan fails in an emergency. It is determined/known that changes in the permitted units’ design, construction, operation, maintenance, or other circumstances have taken place in a way that materially increases the potential for fires, explosions, or releases of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents, or changes the response necessary in an emergency. The list of RWMC emergency action managers (EAMs) changes (refer to Section G-2, Emergency Coordinators). The list of emergency equipment changes (refer to Section G-5, Emergency Equipment). |

40 CFR 264.52(d) The plan must list names, addresses, and phone numbers (office and home) of all persons qualified to act as emergency coordinator (see 264.55), and this list must be kept up to date. Where more than one person is listed, one must be named as primary emergency coordinator and the others must be listed in the order in which they will assume responsibility as alternates. For new facilities, this information must be supplied to the Regional Administrator at the time of certification, rather than the time of permit application. |
The Emergency Action Managers (EAMs), listed below, are the emergency coordinators (ECs) for purposes of HWMA/RCRA compliance with respect to the contingency plan. Due to the shift-work structure and remoteness of the RWMC, it is not possible or practical for one individual to assume “primary” responsibilities, rather, responsibility is best assigned through “redundant primary” EAMs (EAM alternates are identified with an * below). The RWMC Nuclear Facility Manager (NFM) normally serves as the RWMC EAM. Names, home addresses, and home phone numbers of the RWMC EAMs are as follows: |

40 CFR 264.52(a) The Contingency Plan must describe the actions facility personnel must take to comply with 264.51 and 264.56 in response to fires, explosions, or any unplanned sudden or non-sudden release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water at the facility. |
The provisions of the contingency plan will be carried out immediately (activation of the contingency plan) whenever there is a fire, explosion, or unplanned release of hazardous or mixed waste or hazardous waste constituents that threaten human health or the environment. Such an occurrence (incident) may require further classification, as described below, to aid in expediting the appropriate emergency response. |
|
40 CFR 264.51 [The text of 40 CFR 264.51 is located in Section G-1, General Information.] |
Classification of an occurrence is done in accordance with DOE Orders. Through these orders, the DOE has established definitions for occurrence categories and emergency classes. Occurrences are categorized by severity, in order of increasing severity. Emergency occurrences categorized as operational emergencies may be further classified by severity when events occur that represent a specific threat to workers and the public due to the release or potential release of significant quantities of hazardous materials. |

An operational emergency at the RWMC may require response from the RWMC ERO, or support agencies, because the occurrence involves either an actual or potential fire or explosion involving mixed waste, or an uncontrolled release or threat of an uncontrolled release of mixed waste or constituents. |
|
(1) If his assessment indicates that evacuation of local areas may be advisable, he must immediately notify appropriate local authorities. He must be available to help appropriate officials decide whether local areas should be evacuated; and |
Operational emergencies are defined as an unplanned significant event or condition that requires time-urgent response from outside the immediate/affected area of the incident. An operational emergency shall be declared when events have seriously degraded, or have the potential to degrade, the safety or security of the RWMC. Operational emergencies are classified by severity for specifying the appropriate emergency response actions and notifications, which are commensurate with the degree of hazard for the emergency. Classification aids in the rapid communication of critical information and the initiation of appropriate time-urgent emergency response action.

40 CFR 264.56(a) Whenever there is an imminent or actual emergency situation, the emergency coordinator (or his designee when the emergency coordinator is on call) must immediately: |
In the event of a fire or explosion, fire detection equipment (smoke detectors, heat detectors, water flow alarms, or water sprinkler alarms) will automatically notify: |
|
(1) Activate internal facility alarms or communications systems, where applicable, to notify all facility personnel; and |
(1) The RWMC voice paging system, which will (through exterior and interior building speakers) alert, notify and instruct the RWMC facility personnel and RWMC ERO. |
|
(2) Notify appropriate State or local agencies with designated response roles if their help is needed. |
(2) The Fire Alarm Center (FAC), which will involve the INL Fire Department. |
|
NOTE: Notification shall always be made to the State Communications Center even if help is not needed. |
(3) The INL WCC, which will alert other INL EROs. |
|
|
In any event (fire, explosion or release), the person involved/discovering can activate the nearest manual alarms and use communication devices (e.g., cell phones, radios) to summon assistance, and make notifications to the shift manager/EAM and/or the INL Fire Department. The RWMC EAM will ensure that all facility personnel are being, or have been, notified of the imminent or actual emergency situation, including a confirmation call to the WCC, to verify the INL Fire Department is responding. All notifications shall include the following information, as appropriate: |

|
This space left intentionally blank. |
Once the EAM is notified of a fire, explosion, or uncontrolled release at the RWMC (by either an eyewitness or an alarm), the EAM will activate the contingency plan. If necessary, the EAM will also request assistance from the INL Fire Department. The INL Fire Department is contacted by dialing 777 or 526-7777. In case of fire, the INL Fire Department will respond to the alarms. The nature of any incident potentially involving hazardous waste or hazardous materials will undergo assessment, as described in Section G-4c. The contingency plan will not be activated if the incident is considered minor and does not constitute an emergency requiring notification of regulatory agencies (e.g., a fire, explosion, or natural occurrence that does not involve or threaten hazardous or mixed wastes; a release that does not constitute a potential threat to human health or the environment; a spill contained in secondary containment; and/or a spill or release that is less than a reportable quantity specified in 40 CFR 302.4). Reportable quantities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) apply to the release of any substance listed in Table 302.4 of 40 CFR Part 302. |
|
The RWMC maintains its own emergency response capabilities through the ERO. There are adequate supplies, equipment, and trained personnel available at the RWMC to mitigate expected emergencies. The INL Fire Department and security personnel operate separately, but their activities are coordinated through the EAM. DOE-ID maintains coordination and mutual aid agreements with local outside agencies who make additional emergency personnel and equipment available if outside assistance is required. In addition, as a DOE facility, the staff at the RWMC can call upon the resources of the INL EOC for additional assistance, including, but not limited to, MOU agreements with local agencies (such as outside medical facilities or state and local law enforcement agencies) and other federal agencies.

G-4b Identification of Hazardous Materials 40 CFR 264.56(b) |
G-4b Identification of Hazardous Materials |
|
40 CFR 264.56(b) Whenever there is a release, fire, or explosion, the emergency coordinator must immediately identify the character, exact source, amount, and areal extent of any released materials. He may do this by observation or review of facility records or manifests, and, if necessary, by chemical analysis. |
The identification of hazardous wastes or hazardous waste constituents involved in a fire, explosion, or release to the environment is a necessary part of the assessment of an incident. RCRA-regulated hazardous waste and hazardous substances and materials listed in 40 CFR 302.4 involved in any release at the permitted units will be identified. The wastes normally stored at the permitted units present no unique hazards to the waste operations personnel. The permitted units present common industrial hazards for exposures or injuries. |
|
AT KEARNEY FORMAT SECTION REGULATORY REFERENCE/CITATION |
COMPLIANCE METHODOLOGY |
|
|
The RWMC EAM will determine the identity, exact source, amount, and extent of any released materials. Sources of information include, but may not be limited to: |
|
|
(1) Observations of personnel involved in or discovering the situation. |
|
|
(2) Permitted units operating records. |
|
This space was intentionally left blank. |
(3) Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs). |
|
|
(4) Monitoring performed by an Industrial Hygienist. |
|
|
(5) The INL Fire Department’s findings/reports. |
|
|
Released or residual materials (residuals from a fire or explosion) that cannot be identified by labels, records, logbooks, identification numbers, or electronic databases will be sampled in accordance with a waste analysis plan (WAP) and analyzed to determine the chemical properties of the waste. The analytical results will determine the proper disposition of unidentifiable waste materials. |
|
G-4c Assessment 40 CFR 264.56(c) and 264.56(d) 40 CFR 264.56(c) Concurrently, the emergency coordinator must assess possible hazards to human health or the environment that may result from the release, fire, or explosion. This assessment must consider both direct and indirect effects of the release, fire, or explosion (e.g., the effects of any toxic, irritating, or asphyxiating gases that are generated, or the effects of any hazardous surface water run-off from water or chemical agents used to control fire and heat-induced explosions). |
G-4c Assessment Pre-incident planning for areas where the potential exists for airborne transuranic hazards has been completed. Firefighters responding to incidents in these areas will be in full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Fire Department radiological worker training has been enhanced with emphasis on hazardous radiological conditions and the potential for airborne alpha contamination. Once the required notifications have been made, the EAM will ensure the identity, exact source, amount, and extent of released materials spreading from the event location can be determined. Individuals entering the affected area to gather information for the assessment will wear appropriate PPE. The EAM will determine the identity of materials released, based on knowledge of the area and access to the waste identification/characterization information described in Section G-4b. |
|
40 CFR 264.56(d) [The text of 40 CFR 264.56(d) is located in Section G-3, Implementation.] |
After the materials involved in an emergency are identified, the specific Information on the associated hazards, appropriate PPE, decontamination method, etc., will be obtained from MSDSs or other appropriate chemical reference materials. |
|
|
Based on default conservative estimates of potential source terms, emergency action levels (EALs) have been developed for fires, explosions, radiological releases, and other emergency events. EALs are specific, predetermined, observable criteria used to determine the emergency classification and initial protective actions for operational emergencies. These EALs provide guidance for activating the INL EROs at the appropriate level in response to the incident. These EALs specify the initial protective actions (i.e., evacuation or take cover) to be taken in response to the event. |

If the assessment indicates no real or potential threat to human health or the environment, the occurrence will be considered a minor incident. Minor incidents do not require further activation of the contingency plan. |
|
|
If the assessment indicates that a potential threat exists to off-Site human health or the environment due to airborne contaminants, the EAM or ED will advise the appropriate off-Site response personnel of the nature of the potential threat. Wind data for the RWMC and the nature of the wastes normally stored at the permitted units do not indicate that an airborne release is likely to occur outside the TSDF. |

area of the fire. (5) If the fire spreads or increases in intensity, all personnel will be evacuated to an upwind location. (6) The EAM will remain in contact with responding personnel to advise them of the known hazards. (7) As necessary, actions will be taken to ensure storm drains do not receive potentially hazardous run-off. Dikes will be built around storm drains and any valves controlling discharge will be closed. |
|
The EAM is responsible for all emergency response actions conducted within the facility, supporting and coordinating with the On-Scene Commander and for the overall mitigation of the event until the emergency event is terminated. Selection of methods and tactics of fire fighting is the responsibility of the INL Fire Department. |
|
|
Materials involved in a fire can be identified in the following ways: |
|

The EAM will implement the following procedures in the event that: (a) a hazardous or mixed waste or hazardous material spill causes an immediate health hazard; (b) a hazardous or mixed waste or hazardous material spill cannot be contained with secondary containment or application of absorbents; or (c) a threat exists for spilled material to move out of the permitted units: |
|
This space was intentionally left blank. |
(1) Evacuate the immediate area. (2) Review facility records to determine the identity and chemical nature of released material. (3) Ensure personnel don appropriate PPE to prevent exposure to the material. (4) Ensure that the source of the release is secured, if possible. (5) Ensure that a dike is built to contain run-off. (6) Ensure storm drains do not receive potentially hazardous run-off or spill material. Build dikes around storm drains or close any valves controlling discharge. (7) Ensure that appropriate and trained personnel collect and contain released wastes by stabilizing or neutralizing the spilled material, as appropriate, pouring an absorbent over the spilled material, and sweeping or shoveling the absorbed material into drums or other appropriate containers. (8) Ensure that waste that may be incompatible with the released material will be managed in the affected area until cleanup procedures are complete. |
|
|
After collection of a released material, the incident location will be sampled and evaluated. If contamination is found to exist, contaminated materials may be collected, drummed (if appropriate), and removed from the area for disposal at a permitted disposal facility. Depending on the specific conditions, however, RWMC personnel may choose to implement an alternative decontamination method, such as surface cleaning or in situ neutralization or stabilization. Any such alternative will be discussed with the Director of the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, before implementation. |

Once initial spill containment has been completed, the EAM will ensure that recovered hazardous materials and waste are properly stored, treated, and/or disposed, as required by IDAPA 58.01.05.006; 58.01.05.007; and 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR 262, 263, and 264). For spills of liquid that escaped secondary containment, the perimeter of the spill will be diked with an absorbent material, such as absorbent pillows, that is compatible with the material(s) released. Freestanding liquid will be transferred to a labeled compatible container. The remaining liquid will be absorbed with an absorbent material and swept or scooped into a labeled compatible container. Spill residue will be removed. Spills of dry material will be swept or shoveled into a labeled compatible recovery container. Material recovered from the spill will be transferred to a new or clean-washed container that held a compatible material. All containers will meet Department of Transportation (DOT) specifications for shipping the recovered wastes and materials. |
|
|
Hazardous waste resulting from the cleanup of a fire, explosion, or release will be contained and managed as a hazardous waste until such time that it can be determined that the waste is not hazardous, as defined in IDAPA 58.01.05.005 (40 CFR 261, Subparts C and D). In most cases, the hazardous waste inventory logs completed when containers are placed in storage at the permitted units will allow a determination of the hazardous wastes and hazardous waste constituents present in any cleanup of a release or the residues from an emergency condition. When necessary, however, samples of the waste will be collected and analyzed to determine the presence of any hazardous characteristics and/or hazardous waste constituents; this information is needed to evaluate disposal options. Approved sampling and analytical methods will be used. |
|
This space was intentionally left blank. |
If the entire permitted unit has been impacted because of a fire, explosion, or spill, pending decontamination, no hazardous or mixed waste will be accepted for storage or treatment, until it is restored to design status. All cleanup and decontamination residues will be packaged, handled, and stored according to applicable state or federal regulations, DOE orders, and permitted unit procedures. During this period, storage will occur at a less-than-90-day storage site. All liquid wastes will be provided with secondary containment. If unaffected areas of the permitted unit can be used, containers of waste from the affected area(s) will be cleaned, overpacked, placed in spill pans, or transferred to new containers and moved to the unaffected areas. |
|
|
The contaminated area will be decontaminated. If the release results in contamination to a permeable surface, such as soil, asphalt, or other surface, the material will be removed and placed in DOT-approved shipping containers. Contaminated surface materials, as well as materials used in the cleanup (e.g., rags and absorbent material), will be containerized and placed into storage, pending transfer to an on- or off-Site treatment or disposal facility, in accordance with applicable regulations. Clean soil or new asphalt will be placed at the spill location. |

G-4g Incompatible Waste 40 CFR 264.56(h)(1) 40 CFR 264.56(h) The emergency coordinator must ensure that, in the affected area(s) of the facility: (1) No waste that may be incompatible with the released material is treated, stored, or disposed of until cleanup procedures are completed; and G-4h Post-Emergency Equipment Maintenance 40 CFR 264.56(h)(2) 40 CFR 264.56(h) The emergency coordinator must ensure that, in the affected area(s) of the facility: (2) All emergency equipment listed in the CP is cleaned and fit for its intended use before operations are resumed. |
If the spill was contained within the secondary containment area, other containers within that area will be decontaminated with water and/or a non- hazardous detergent or another appropriate cleaning solution. Contaminated wash water or cleaning solution will be transferred to an appropriate container, labeled, and placed in storage, pending transfer to an on- or off-Site treatment or disposal facility, in accordance with applicable regulations. G-4g Incompatible Waste In the event of a hazardous material or hazardous waste release, the EAM will ensure that no wastes will be received, treated, or stored in the affected areas until cleanup operations have been completed. This will ensure that incompatible waste will not be present in the vicinity of the release. If waste is generated as the result of a spill or release of hazardous materials or hazardous waste, the waste generated as a result of abatement and cleanup will be evaluated to determine its compatibility with other wastes being managed in temporary storage areas. The evaluation will identify the material or waste that was spilled or released and determine its characteristics (e.g., ignitable, reactive, corrosive, and toxic). The waste generated by the abatement and cleanup activities will be stored in that part of the temporary storage area of the permitted units that has been established to manage wastes with which it is compatible. Administrative controls, such as installing barriers and/or a cordon around the temporary storage area(s), will be implemented to ensure segregation of wastes. The EAM will not allow hazardous or mixed waste operations to resume in a building or area in which incompatible materials have been released before ensuring that necessary post-emergency cleanup operations to remove potentially incompatible materials have been completed. G-4h Post-emergency Equipment Maintenance The EAM will ensure that emergency equipment is cleaned and ready for its intended use before operations are resumed. Any equipment that cannot be decontaminated may be discarded as waste (i.e., hazardous, mixed, solid, as appropriate). Equipment or supplies that cannot be reused following an emergency will be replaced. After the equipment has been cleaned, repaired, or replaced, a post-emergency facility and equipment inspection will be performed, and the results will be recorded. Cleaning and decontaminating equipment may be accomplished using non- hazardous materials whenever possible, by physically removing gross or solid residue, rinsing with water or another non-hazardous liquid, and/or washing with detergent and water. Decontamination and cleaning will be conducted in a confined area, such as a wash pad or building equipped with a floor drain and sump isolated from the environment. Care will be taken to prevent wind dispersion of particles and spray. Liquid or particulate resulting from cleaning and decontamination of equipment will be placed in clean, compatible containers. Waste resulting from decontamination operations will be analyzed for hazardous waste constituents and/or hazardous waste characteristics to determine proper management. |

|
|
(5) Spilled or leaked waste and accumulated precipitation must be removed from the sump or collection area in as timely a manner as is necessary to prevent overflow of the collection system. |
When a spill or leak from a container is encountered, the shift manager/EAM will be notified and trained RWMC facility personnel and/or the INL Fire Department will don the appropriate PPE, maintain a safe distance, assess the situation, determine the proper and safe response action, gather the necessary equipment from the spill control cabinet, and respond accordingly (e.g., absorb/neutralize, shovel/mop up into a compatible container and decontaminate the area). |
|
|
If the spill or leak is of a nature that is not readily addressed (e.g., an industrial hygienist is required to monitor gases or vapors) the RWMC EAM may get involved and a hazardous work permit may be required before cleanup can commence. The hazardous work permit will specify the necessary PPE and spill response equipment, the roles of the responders, and the cleanup/decontamination procedures to be employed. |
|
|
In all cases: the proper reports will be filed in accordance with Section G-8 (e.g., inspection log sheets); the incident will be documented in the unit’s operating record; and the PPE/equipment used in the response will be decontaminated or disposed of and replaced. |

|
|
G-7 Evacuation Plan 40 CFR 264.52(f) |
G-7 Evacuation Plan |
|
40 CFR 264.52(f) The plan must include an evacuation plan for facility personnel where there is a possibility that an evacuation could be necessary. This plan must describe signal(s) to be used to begin evacuation, evacuation routes, and alternate evacuation routes (in cases where the primary routes could be blocked by releases of hazardous waste or fires). |
The normal actions to protect non-emergency personnel are to minimize their exposure to radiation, airborne radioactivity, hazardous chemicals, and airborne hazardous chemicals, by seeking shelter, avoiding the accident area, or evacuating selected buildings or areas. In the event of an emergency, which results in high radiation, hazardous chemical levels, or a continuing release to the environment, it may become necessary to evacuate the entire RWMC area. Building and Emergency Plan Maps depicting evacuation routes are located throughout the RWMC buildings. Upon exiting a building, personnel proceed to a designated staging area not affected by the emergency. |
|
|
The RWMC evacuation system alerts personnel in case of an evacuation. This system is on backup power; should power fail, it will automatically switch to a battery. Evacuation sirens are strategically located throughout the RWMC to provide coverage for all occupied areas. If the evacuation alarm is out of service or fails to operate, the evacuation will be communicated over the voice paging system, by word of mouth, or by security personnel using sirens or the voice amplifiers in their vehicles. |
|
|
Designated personnel, known as area wardens, are assigned responsibility for ensuring that personnel are evacuated from the area warden’s assigned area or building or accounted for during evacuations. |
|
|
The following procedure will allow for a safe, coordinated evacuation: |
|
|
(1) When an evacuation is announced, stop work. |
|

|
This space was intentionally left blank. |
(2) If possible and directed by the EAM, shut down predesignated operations that could contribute to further hazards, unless an “immediate” building evacuation is announced. (3) Follow the voice-paging instruction or proceed to the closest building exit, unless blocked by hazards. (4) Do not remain in the affected area, and assist injured personnel in leaving the area, if possible. (5) Exit the facility through the security access points to the designated assembly area. (6) Report to designated assembly area. (7) Be continually cognizant of wind direction (stay upwind) and emergency equipment. (8) Do not reenter the fenced area of the RWMC, until the EAM authorizes reentry. |
|
During an evacuation, all personnel will remain in the designated assembly area, until given further instructions. |
|
|
The primary evacuation routes for the permitted units are depicted in Exhibits located at the end of this section. Alternative evacuation routes are through the nearest unobstructed emergency exit. |
|
|
Evacuation Alarmsignal is an alternating tone-generated siren. Fire Alarmis announced over the RWMC voice paging system. Take-Cover Alarmis a steady tone-generated siren. This signal provides an emergency option to total RWMC evacuation. |

1 I. CLOSURE AND POST-CLOSURE REQUIREMENTS
2 This closure plan specifies performance standards and procedures for the waste management units
3 addressed in this permit: miscellaneous treatment/storage processes in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619;
4 container storage in WMF-698, WMF-1617, and WMF-1619; and the five outside storage areas. This
5 plan addresses all units, although they may not be closed at the same time. The activities and closure
6 performance standards described in this plan apply only to Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
7 (RCRA)-regulated wastes and the storage and treatment areas that came in contact with these RCRA-
8 regulated wastes. Prior to initiation of closure, all containers will be removed from the units and
9 transferred to a RCRA treatment, storage, and/or disposal (TSD) unit. Notification of intent to initiate
10 closure of WMF-1617 was submitted to the DEQ on August 7, 2019, and closure was initiated on October
11 1, 2019. Additional closure requirements specific to WMF-1617 are included in item 1a of Section I-1a.,
12 Closure Performance Standards (IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.111).
13 Closure of the subject units may result in process equipment and building components being
14 reused for any number of activities other than RCRA hazardous waste management processes.
15 Conversely, certain process equipment or building components may be declared waste and managed as
16 such. The closure performance standards for the storage and treatment areas will be the removal of gross,
17 visible RCRA waste from the storage and treatment areas, including treatment/storage trays and drum
18 packaging stations (DPSs), and equipment, followed by transition of the areas and equipment back to the
19 Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) program.
20 HWMA/RCRA and CERCLA Integration
21 HWMA/RCRA closure will be integrated with the CERCLA non-time critical removal action
22 (NTCRA) to the extent practicable while ensuring protection of human health and the environment.
23 WMF-1617, WMF-1619, and WMF-698 have been added to the scope of the “Action Memorandum for
24 General Decommissioning Activities under the Idaho Cleanup Project” (Action Memorandum) through a
25 November 3, 2011, Addendum Letter submitted by DOE-ID [“Addendum to Table 1. of the Action
26 Memorandum for General Decommissioning Activities under the Idaho Cleanup Project (DOE/ID-
27 11293, Revision 1)”] (EM-FMDP-11-097, CCN 314182) and approved by DEQ (WDP-RWMC-11-
28 097, CCN 314183) and Dennis Faulk, EPA, (CCN 314184). The closure approach and the subsequent
29 management of the waste generated during the closure will be in accordance with this closure plan and,
30 where appropriate, with the applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) of the General
1 D&D Action Memorandum. D&D will be completed under CERCLA after completion of
2 HWMA/RCRA closure and the units are transferred back to the CERCLA Program.
3 I-1. Closure and Post-Closure Requirements [IDAPA 58.01.05.008 and 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR
4 270.14(b)(13), 264.112(a)(1) and (2)]
5 Prior to processing HWMA/RCRA waste, WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 were used to remediate
6 CERCLA waste under the OU 7-13/14 Record of Decision. Targeted CERCLA waste was excavated
7 with standard excavation equipment and transported to the drum packaging stations for repackaging in
8 new drums. All visible targeted waste was removed from the retrieval area following CERCLA
9 remediation activities. The retrieval area consists of native soils that have been graded. Radiological
10 surveys indicate the area is contaminated with non-uniform levels of transuranic isotopes following the
11 CERCLA remediation activities.
12 Prior to initiation of processing of HWMA/RCRA waste in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619, visible
13 soil and waste residues were cleaned out of the drum packaging stations, waste trays, and excavation
14 equipment surfaces used to process CERCLA waste (e.g., excavator bucket). The removal was
15 accomplished by sweeping, wiping with rags, scraping etc., until all visible waste and soil was removed
16 (e.g., clean debris surface). Video documentation of the initial conditions in the WMF-1617 and WMF-
17 1619 were recorded (and provided to DEQ) to verify absence of visible waste and stained soils.
18 During HWMA/RCRA waste processing, any spilled waste is cleaned up at the time the spill occurs.
19 Procedural steps mandate removal of all spilled material and any surrounding stained soils. Soils
20 approximately 4” beyond the extent of visible soil staining are removed in the event of a liquid spill to
21 ensure that all spilled material is removed. Documentation of spill clean-up is included in the operations
22 record and will be provided to the qualified engineer to be addressed in the closure certification.
23 This closure plan describes the procedures to be used to remove visible waste residues from
24 process equipment and building components and return of the equipment and structures to the CERCLA
25 program. This closure plan does not include contingent plans for closure as a landfill and post-closure
26 maintenance as a disposal unit.
27 WMF-698, WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 Process Information
28 Section D “Process Information” in Book 3A of this permit presents specific design and process
29 information for the RWMC SDA units.
1 Significant to closure activities, all containment areas (secondary containment pans and lined
2 waste trays) and equipment surfaces of WMF-698, WMF-1617, and WMF-1619 associated with storage
3 and treatment activities were designed such that foreseeable decontamination efforts would be facilitated.
4 Additionally, practices were followed such that treatment or components not functionally required during
5 a given treatment campaign were isolated from the potentially contaminated work area.
6 I-1a. Closure Performance Standards (IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.111)
7 The closure process is designed to remove and manage waste, eliminate the need for post-closure
8 activities, and minimize generation of waste.
9 1. The closure performance standards for the WMF-698, WMF-1617, and WMF-1619 units for
10 RCRA/Hazardous Waste Management Act (HWMA) closure activities are considered precursor
11 efforts to the ultimate facility deactivation and decommissioning (D&D) under CERCLA after
12 completion of closure. Technical approaches to this ultimate facility D&D will have practical
13 bearing on the appropriate approach to RCRA/HWMA closure. This integration of
14 RCRA/HWMA closure activities with CERCLA and subsequent D&D activities is reflected
15 below, as it relates to contaminated process equipment and building components that would
16 remain in place and undergo subsequent facility D&D. All collected dirt and other residuals
17 generated from this closure activity will be managed as hazardous/mixed waste.
18 1a. Closure Requirements Specific to WMF-1617:
19 Closure of WMF-1617 will include removal of gross, visible RCRA waste within the
20 treatment/storage containment pans and trays, Drum Packaging Stations (DPSs), and on
21 equipment used in the repackaging/treatment processes. The waste material remaining in the
22 facility and on the equipment is the same waste stream that was processed at the time of the April
23 11, 2018, drum event and during the drum event recovery actions. During closure, the residual
24 material removed from trays/containment pans, DPSs, and other areas (including waste from
25 vacuums used to remove waste residue from surfaces, trays, pans, and equipment) will be
26 processed with the additional controls and operational restrictions used to process sludge in
27 WMF-1619 – to address potential reactions prior to the material being processed in the DPSs –
28 and placed in output drums. The sorting table and 14-by-18-ft secondary containment pan will
29 remain in the WMF-1617 retrieval area for purposes of processing this residual waste. The waste
30 will be emptied into the sorting table and raked to mix the material and expose it to air. The
31 material will then be placed in trays and evenly distributed. Trays will be staged in the retrieval
1 area for a minimum of 24 hours. At the end of the 24-hour hold time, the waste will be evaluated
2 for elevated temperatures (>4°F above ambient) using the thermal camera(s). If the waste
3 temperature is >4℉ above ambient temperature, the waste will be reconditioned by thoroughly
4 raking again and holding for another 24-hour period. Once this 24-hour hold is complete, the
5 temperature will again be monitored using a thermal camera. If the temperature variation of the
6 waste is verified to be <4℉ above ambient temperature, the waste may be processed through the
7 drum packaging stations (DPSs). If the temperature variation is >4℉ above ambient temperature,
8 then the reconditioning rake and hold process will be repeated until the temperature after a 24-
9 hour hold is not >4℉ above ambient. After repackaging through the DPSs, the repackaged waste
10 will be transferred to AMWTP for characterization.
11 Following the processing and repackaging of residual waste, the treatment/containment pans,
12 DPSs, and other equipment will be closed as described in the performance standards 2 through 4.
13 2. The performance standard for reusable process equipment and building components, which may
14 include containment pans, trays, excavators and telehandlers, and /or drum venting tool, will be a
15 degree of decontamination consistent with the intended “post closure” use of the process
16 equipment or building components as determined by Idaho Cleanup Project Core-accepted
17 industrial hygiene and health physics protocols and guidelines. The operating record will be
18 reviewed to determine if any waste material contacted the drum storage secondary containment
19 pans or the waste tray secondary containment pans. This operational record review will be
20 supplemented by visual observation, where physical access, radiological conditions, and
21 industrial hygiene concerns permit.
22 2a. Construction of Temporary Passageway between WMF-1614 and WMF-1617:
23 To allow transfer of heavy equipment from WMF-1617 to be reused to support CERCLA
24 activities, a temporary fabric passageway will be constructed by the CERCLA program.
25 Construction will start at the east end of WMF-1614 and tie in at the south side of WMF-1617
26 between two damper shrouds. The passageway fabric will be heat-sealed to the outside layer of
27 the WMF-1617 retrieval area tent fabric and the tent fabric cut away for the entrance to the
28 passageway. Upon completion of moving heavy equipment to be reused from WMF-1617, the
29 tent will be patched and the passageway removed. The transfer of equipment is to support future
30 use of the equipment for CERCLA operations. This CERCLA passageway will not change or
31 modify the RCRA units in WMF-1617. This passageway will only be used for moving equipment
32 such as excavators and loaders from WMF-1617 to CERCLA facilities and will not be used for
1 moving equipment such as containment pans and trays, which may be removed from the facility
2 for reuse at any time during closure.
3 3. The performance standard for contaminated process equipment and building components that
4 would remain in place and undergo subsequent facility D&D (such as the DPS units, the airlock
5 structure, walls of the airlock rooms, containment pans, drum venting tool, etc.) will be removal
6 of all gross visible RCRA waste material. The level of physical decontamination will be that
7 required to render the equipment or structural surfaces “clean,” analogous to that specified and 8 identified under IDAPA 58.01.05.011 (40 CFR 268.45).
9 4. The performance standard for contaminated process equipment and components to be managed as
10 hazardous/mixed debris will be the alternative debris treatment standards for hazardous waste
11 debris in IDAPA 58.01.05.011 (40 CFR 268.45), or the equipment/components will be managed
12 as hazardous/mixed waste, per IDAPA 58.01.05.006 through .012 (40 CFR 262 through 270).
13 Contaminated process equipment and components will be managed as hazardous/mixed waste
14 debris. This will entail decontamination of the waste until the standard for attaining a “clean
15 debris surface” is achieved, as verified by visual inspection of the contaminated surface. Clean
16 debris surface means that the surface, when viewed without magnification, shall be free of visible
17 contaminated soil and hazardous waste except for residual staining from soil and waste,
18 consisting of light shadows, slight streaks, or minor discoloration. Soil and waste in cracks,
19 crevices, and pits may be present, provided that such staining and waste and soil in cracks,
20 crevices, and pits shall be limited to no more than 5% of surface area. Equipment, components,
21 and other debris, as well as collected soils, not meeting the LDR treatment standards and the
22 ICDF Waste Acceptance Criteria will be dispositioned off-site at a facility subject to EPA’s off-
23 site acceptability determination.
24 5. Video documentation of the final conditions in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 will be recorded and
25 compared to the video documentation of the initial conditions in WMF-1617 and WMF-1619 to
26 verify that the condition following HWMA/RCRA waste processing is consistent with the
27 physical state of the facility as turned over from the previous CERCLA remediation activities.
28 The video documentation will be provided to the DEQ with the closure certification.
1 I-1b. Partial Closure Activities [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.112(a)(1)]
2 As units complete their mission, a notification of closure (partial or otherwise) will be submitted
3 to the DEQ with the proposed date for the start of closure and a proposed schedule for completing the
4 closure of that unit.
5 I-1c. Maximum Waste Inventory [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.112(b)(3)]
6 Attachment 1 includes the Part A hazardous waste permit application for WMF-698, WMF-1617
7 and WMF-1619 units. The Part A permit application indicates the maximum potential waste inventory
8 for each unit. In addition, the operating record for each unit will identify the occurrence of waste spills, if
9 any, over the operating life, and the measures taken to mitigate the spill.
10 I-1d. Inventory Removal and Disposal or Decontamination of Equipment, Structures, and Soils
11 (IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.111, 264.112, and 264.114)
12 I-1d(1) Closure of Containers (IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.178)
13 Prior to closure and decontamination activities, all hazardous/mixed waste managed in containers
14 stored in the facility will be removed, transported to, and managed in an on-Site or off-Site TSD unit.
15 The operating records for the storage areas (WMF-698, Rooms 101 – 106 in WMF-1617, Rooms 101 –
16 106 in WMF-1619, and the outside storage areas) will be reviewed to determine if there have been any
17 spills/releases of mixed waste in the secondary containment or the storage areas. The storage areas will
18 also be visually inspected for any signs of release, e.g., waste-related staining. If there is no
19 documentation or visible indication of spills/releases, clean closure of the storage areas will be complete.
20 If there is documentation or visual evidence of spills/releases, the closure performance standards in
21 Section I-1a will be used to facilitate clean closure of the container storage areas.
22 I-1d(8) Closure of Miscellaneous Units [IDAPA 58.01.05.012, 40 CFR 270.23(a)(2)]
23 Management of mixed wastes in miscellaneous units is described in Section D-8 of this permit
24 and encompasses the miscellaneous treatment/storage unit activities within the WMF-1617 (Retrieval
25 Area, Room 104, Service Bay, DPSs, and Drum Compactor), and WMF-1619 (Retrieval Area, Room
26 104, Service Bay, and DPSs). The treatment areas will be visually inspected for any signs of release, e.g.,
1 waste-related staining. All gross visible RCRA waste will be removed from equipment and treatment
2 areas, transported to, and managed in an on-Site or off-Site TSD unit.
3 I-1e. Ancillary Closure Activities [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.112(b)(5)]
4 As the RWMC HWMA/RCRA permitted units are not being closed as a landfill subject to the
5 closure and post-closure care requirements of 40 CFR 264.310, no ancillary activities such as
6 groundwater monitoring, leachate collection, or run-on/run-off control are appropriate or planned for
7 these units. Following completion of HWMA/RCRA closure, the units will be transferred back to the
8 CERCLA program for D&D of the structures. CERCLA activities in accordance with the Waste Area
9 Group 7 Record of Decision will include construction of a cap over the SDA and associated groundwater
10 monitoring, run-on/run-off, and other controls.
11 I-1e(1) Waste Management
12 All stored hazardous/mixed waste will be removed from the unit being closed and will be moved
13 to a permitted treatment, storage, or disposal facility. Various debris treatment technologies are
14 anticipated to be used to decontaminate equipment and structures as described in Item 4 under Section I-
15 1a., Closure Performance Standards. Following the processing of the residual waste removed from the
16 containment pans and other equipment and structures described in Section I-1a., Closure Performance
17 Standards, Item 1a, waste generated in the process of decontaminating equipment or structures to remain
18 is defined as closure-generated waste. Closure-generated waste will be staged in the vicinity of the unit
19 being closed in a designated closure-generated waste storage area until the waste has been appropriately
20 characterized, processed, or dispositioned as appropriate for each waste. For the purposes of this closure
21 plan, vicinity is defined as the RWMC including both the AMWTP and the SDA. Waste will be
22 appropriately managed based on a hazardous waste determination. All generator requirements of IDAPA
23 58.01.05.006 (40 CFR 262) will be met except the 90-day limit stipulated in IDAPA 58.01.05.006 [40
24 CFR 262.34(a)(1), “Generator Standards: Accumulation Time”] which will not apply to closure-generated
25 waste. As part of the integration to the extent practical with CERCLA non-time critical removal actions,
26 interim time limits are considered administrative in nature rather than substantive. Closure-generated-
27 waste can be staged in these areas as long as necessary to facilitate completion of closure related activities
28 while still meeting the overall closure schedule. All hazardous waste will be removed from these staging
29 areas and dispositioned prior to the completion of closure activities. Information regarding waste
30 management during closure activities will be provided in quarterly closure reports to the DEQ and to the
31 qualified engineer certifying closure.
1 I-1f. Schedule for Closure [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.112(b)(6)]
2 The Director of the DEQ will be notified in writing at least 45 days prior to the date that closure
3 operations are planned to begin for each unit. Notification of intent to initiate closure of WMF-1617 was

2 I-1g. Extension for Closure Time [IDAPA 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 264.113(a) and 264.113(b)]
3 Table 1 identifies the closure schedule that will be initiated for WMF-1617 following DEQ
4 approval of this modified closure plan. A Notice of Intent to begin closure of WMF-1617 was submitted
5 to the DEQ on August 7, 2019, and closure was started under the approved closure plan October 1, 2019.
6 The schedule in Table 1 reflects the time required for conducting closure activities and submitting
7 information to the qualified engineer for certification. IDAPA 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR 264.113) requires
8 closure to be completed within 180 days from the initiation of closure activities. An extension to this time
9 period is being requested for the closure of WMF-1617, pursuant to IDAPA 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR
10 264.113), to protect human health and the environment and to adequately perform closure activities.
11 Waste removal, decontamination, and closure activities cannot be completed within these timeframes due
12 to several factors including, but not limited to, the following:
1 · The need to process residual waste out of the WMF-1617 using the controls described in Section
2 I-1a, Item 1a, to prevent potential reactions of residual material when processed through the DPSs
3 and repackaged in containers;
4 · The need to provide radiological contamination controls to prevent the spread of contamination;
5 · Work related to management of radioactive mixed waste requires additional time due to the
6 requirements for care in work planning and execution to be protective of human health and the
7 environment; and
8 · The need for additional radiological contamination controls and additional work planning and
9 execution for transferring equipment to be reused out of WMF-1617.
10 I-1h. Certification of Closure [IDAPA 58.01.05.012 and 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 270.11(d) and
11 264.115]
12 A certification of closure for each unit (or combination of units) will be provided in accordance
13 with IDAPA 58.01.05.008 (40 CFR 264.115) by a registered professional engineer (PE), the operating
14 contractor, and DOE-ID. The certification will state that a given unit (or combination of units) has been
15 closed in accordance with the approved closure plan. Final closure activities will be considered complete
16 upon submittal of the certification of closure to the DEQ and written acceptance issued by the DEQ.
17 I-2. Post-Closure Plan and Notices [IDAPA 58.01.05.012; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(13) and (14)]
18 Pursuant to IDAPA 58.01.05.009 [40 CFR 265.110(d)] the HWMA/RCRA post-closure
19 requirements at 58.01.05.009 (40 CFR 264.116 through 40 CFR 264.120) are not applicable as the
20 Regional Administrator in conjunction with the other signees of the FFA/CO have determined that it is
21 not necessary to apply closure requirements because alternative requirements implemented under the
22 FFA/CO will protect human health and the environment and will satisfy closure performance standards
23 for the soils after this closure plan has been implemented. These units will not be closed as a land
24 disposal facility; therefore, a “Notice in Deed” and survey plat are not required.
1 I-9. Use of State Required Financial Mechanisms and State Assumption of Responsibility
2 [IDAPA 58.01.05.012 and 58.01.05.008; 40 CFR 270.14(b)(18), 264.149, and 264.150]
3 The INL is owned by the U.S. Department of Energy; therefore, the facility is exempt from
4 providing a closure cost estimate, financial assurance mechanism, meeting liability requirements, or
5 compliance with state mechanisms under IDAPA 58.01.05.012 and 40 CFR 270.14(b)(18) and 264.149 6 and 264.150.
