1.0 INTRODUCTION

This document presents the 200 Area Treated Effluent Disposal Facility (TEDF) and the 200Area Liquid Effluent Retention Facility/Effluent Treatment Facility (LERF/ERF) wastewateracceptance criteria. These facilities are operated by the Liquid Waste and Fuels Storage (LWFS)Organization of CH2M Hill Plateau Remediation Company, LLC (CHPRC), for the U.S.Department of Energy (DOE). This document addresses responsibilities of generators sendingwastewater to the TEDF or the LERF/ETF for treatment/disposal.

Throughout this document, the term wastewater refers to any dangerous, nondangerous, mixed,radioactive, and/or nonradioactive aqueous waste generated by Hanford Site generators. Wasteacceptance criteria presented in this document are derived from applicable environmental, safety,and operational requirements. Wastewater that does not meet applicable criteria will notnecessarily be rejected by LWFS. In some instances, facility processes and/or permits can bemodified to accommodate the needs of the generator. To avoid potential programmatic delays, thegenerator should notify, LWsFS as soon as possible before or during their waste generation activities.

HINF-3 172 Rev. 4

2.0 200 AREA TREATED EFFLUENT DISPOSAL FACILITY

The TEDF is permitted by the State of Washington, Department of Ecology (Ecology) underState Waste Discharge Permit Number ST 4502 (ST 4502) (Ecology 2000a) to dispose ofnondangerous, nonradioactive wastewater received from Hanford Site 200 East and 200 WestArea generators. The TEDF consists of the piping systems, along with supporting structures,components, and instrumentation, that receive and route generator wastewater to two infiltrationbasins located east of the 200 East Area.

2.1 Prohibited Waste

Wastes specifically prohibited from discharge to the TEDF include the following:

* Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) waste regulated under the Toxic Substances Control Actof 1976 (TSCA)

* Explosive waste* Unstable waste* Waste that could generate toxic gases, vapors, or fuimes in concentrations that reasonably

could be expected to exceed occupational exposure limits and/or air emission standards* Biohazard waste* Dangerous waste, as defined by Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 173-303* Radioactive waste." Hazardous materials and petroleum products" Waxes, oils, greases, and solids that may interfere with monitoring instruments, clog the

piping, or degrade the infiltration rate of the soils.

2.2 Waste Acceptance Criteria

Because the TEDF does not provide any treatment or retention capacity, strict control is imposed oneach generating facility to ensure that the TEDF discharges remain in compliance with ST 4502and within the TEDF system capacity. The TEDF end-of-pipe discharges must be maintainedwithin the limits given in Table 1.

HINF-3172 Rev. 4

Under the terms of ST 4502, only wastewaters resulting from approved generating processes areauthorized to discharge to the TEDF without prior Ecology approval. Most of the wastewatersaccepted at the TEDF have not been in direct contact with industrial processes and are primarilyassociated with the following:

* ventilation, heating, and cooling systems for the buildings" steam condensate from heating potable (drinkable) water* condensate of pressurized potable water" storm water" potable (treated) water" untreated Columbia River water" boiler blow down" floor drains with limited and strictly controlled usage" hydrotest, maintenance, construction, cooling water, condensate, storm water, and other

miscellaneous wastewater discharges that are covered under the State Waste DischargePermit Number ST 45]] (Ecology 2005).

Such discharges are classified by the facility as either a routine or non-routine. Routine dischargesare pre-approved and can be made at the generators discretion, provided it is within the TEDFacceptance criteria. Non-routine discharges are single batch, with each batch requiring LWFSapproval prior to discharge to TEDF. The following sections summarize the acceptance process forroutine and non-routine discharges to TEDF.

2.1.1 Waste Acceptance Process For Routine Discharges

Prior to LWFS accepting any new routine wastewater discharges to the TEDF, the generator mustprovide a description and characterization of the proposed discharge to LWFS. If the proposeddischarge is a new source not previously approved, increased volume, or change in the nature ofthe discharge is anticipated which is not specifically authorized by ST 4502, the generator mustprepare an engineering report containing a description of proposed changes and an analysis of thebest available technology/all known, available and reasonable treatment (BAT/AKART). Thisengineering report is provided to LWFS who then submits a new permit application or asupplement to the previous permit application to Ecology. Ecology must approve the newwastewater discharge before the discharge may commence.

Once a new routine discharge has been approved, LWFS will update the 200 Area TreatedEffluent Disposal Facility Interface Control Document (TEDF ICD) (HNF-SD-W049H-ICD-001) to define requirements the new generator must meet to discharge to the TEDF. Thegenerator will concur with updates to the LCD. The requirements established in the TEDF LCDassures that the overall TEDF operation will remain in compliance with ST 4502. The followingare typical generator requirements:

* Continuously monitor flow, pH, and conductivity;" Sample and analyze for indicator parameters (anions, metals, total dissolved solids, gross

alpha, and gross beta) four times each year; and

7

HNF-3172 Rev. 4

Sample and analyze for expanded parameters (indicators parameters plus a few volatileand semi-volatile analytes) once per year.

2.1.2 Waste Acceptance Process for Non-Routine Discharges

Prior to accepting any new non-routine effluent discharge to TEDF, the generator must completea TEDF Non-Routine Batch Discharge Profile Sheet provided in Appendix A. The completedprofile is used by LWFS to assess whether LWFS can approve the discharge or whether thedischarge requires Ecology's approval. In general, LWFS can accept into TEDF discharges thatare covered by a categorical discharge permit and meets TEDF waste acceptance criteria withoutEcology approval.

If LWFS determines that the discharge requires Ecology approval, the generator must submit thefollowing additional information.

* The nature of the activity that is generating the discharge.* Any alternatives to the discharge, such as reuse, storage, or recycling of the water.* Total volume of water expected to be discharged.* The results of chemical analysis of the water. The water shall be analyzed for all

constituents given in Table 1. The analysis shall also include hardness, any metals thatare limited by water quality standards, and any other parameter deemed necessary byEcology.

" The date of proposed discharge and the rate at which the water will be discharged, ingallons per minute.

The discharge cannot proceed until Ecology has reviewed the information provided by thegenerator and has authorized the discharge.

Once the non-routine discharge has been approved, the generator is required to notify TEDFOperations (373-9000) just prior to discharge and confirm the emergency contact information onthe profile sheet is still valid. The emergency contact is someone who can stop the generator'sdischarge to TEDF, or assist TEDF operating personnel in stopping the discharge.

3.0 LIQUID EFFLUENT RETENTION FACILITY AND 200 AREA EFFLUENTTREATMENT FACILITY

The ETF began operation in 1995 to treat numerous Hanford Site generated wastewaters. TheLERF began operation in the previous year to treat and store wastewater in advance of furthertreatment in the ETF. The LERF/ETF can accept any Hanford Site generated dangerous, low-level, mixed, or non-regulated aqueous waste provided it meets the facilities' waste acceptancecriteria. (Since most wastewaters are transferred to the LERF for treatment and storage prior tofurther treatment in the ETF, incoming wastewater must usually meet both LERF and ETF wasteacceptance criteria.) The LERF/ETF can receive wastewater via pipeline or in a container(s) (e.g.,drum, carboy, tanker, etc.). CHPRC manages the following tankers which are available togenerators:

* Polar (HO-64-3858, HO-64-3859, HO-64-4275)* Beall (HO-64-53 85, HO-64-5 386)* Walker (HO-64-4294)* Superior (HO-64-4268)

The ETF consists of two series of process units (referred to as treatment trains) configured to treatcontaminants expected to be present in wastewater. The primary treatment train includes thoseprocess systems that remove or destroy dangerous and radioactive constituents in the wastewater.Removed constituents are then concentrated and dried into a powder in the secondary treatmenttrain. The powder is containerized and transferred to a treatment, storage, and/or disposal(TSD) unit. The ETF treated effluent is discharged to the SALDS under State Waste DischargePermit Number ST 4500 (ST 4500) (Ecology 2000b). A process diagram of the LERF/ETF isprovided in Figure 1.

The operation of the LERF/ETF is subject to the requirements contained in DOE Orders and inpermits and approval orders issued by Ecology, Washington State Department of Health (WDOH),and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The ETF can treat wastewaters regulatedunder the Washington Administrative Code (WAC), Resource, Conservation and Recovery Actof 1976 (RCRA), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of1980 (CERCLA), and DOE Orders. In addition, the LERF/ETF has received EPA approval tomanage TSCA remediation waste.

The following sections describe the LERF/ETF waste acceptance process, responsibilities of thegenerator and LWFS in this process, the waste characterization requirements, and the wasteacceptability review.

3.1 Prohibited Waste

There are certain classifications of waste that cannot be accepted into the LERF/ETF. Theseprohibited wastes are as follows:

" Explosive waste" Unstable waste" Waste that could generate toxic gases, vapors, or fumes in concentrations that reasonably

could be expected to exceed occupational exposure limits and/or air emission standards" Biohazard waste" Waste designated with waste numbers other than those given in Table 3." Sludge or solids (LERF)" Precipitating or flocculating chemicals" Separable organics" High-Level waste" Total fissile material mass outside the limits of a criticality exempt facility classification." Beryllium contaminated wastewater may be prohibited from LERF/ETF if it poses health

risks to facility personnel during processing. As shown in Figure 1, contaminants such asberyllium are removed from the wastewater, concentrated to a powder, and loaded intodrums in the thin film dryer room. Because there is a potential for airborne exposure topersonnel, wastewater containing beryllium will not be accepted into the LERF/ETFwithout assurance that the ETF will not become a beryllium facility, as defined inPRC-PRO-SH-6 155, Chronic Beryllium Disease Prevention Program (CBDPP). Theberyllium levels dictated in HNF-PRO-6 155 are very low and in some cases even berylliumlevels in the parts per trillion can be concentrated enough to exceed the exposure limits.

3.2 Waste Profile

To initiate acceptance of a new wastewater into the LERF/ETF, the generator is required tocomplete and certify a Waste Profile Sheet (profile) with the supporting analytical data anddocumentation attached. The profile form is provided in Appendix B. The following providesdirection on completing those individual blocks of the profile that are not self explanatory.

Waste Profile Sheet Blocks, #1 and #2:

The generator must provide a description of the waste to allow LWFS to determine if the wasteinformation provided is sufficient. Process knowledge used in characterizing the waste should beincluded here. For example, if the source of the wastewater is not from a radiologically-contaminated area, the generator should state so here to justify not sampling for radionuclides.

Waste Profle Sheet Blocks #3 and #4:

The generator shall determine whether the wastewater is a dangerous or hazardous waste per40 Code of Federal Regulators (CFR) Part 261 or WAC 173-303-070. If it is, the generator shallprovide waste codes that apply to the wastewater. Before a wastewater can be accepted into theLERF/ETF it must be compliant with the LERF/ETF portion of the Hanford Facility Dangerous

I1I

HNF-3172 Rev. 4

Waste Permnit (Ecology 2000c). The LERF/ETF can only accept wastewaters with waste codesgiven in Table 2.

U- and P- Codes

Acceptance of those F-, U-, and P- listed waste codes that have a treatment standard established forwastewater forms of F039 multi-source leachate under 40CFR268.40, "Treatment Standards forHazardous Waste," will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

Waste Profile Sheet, Block #5:

The generator must determine if the waste is considered a wastewater to determine which landdisposal restriction (LDR) treatment standard is required. Waste exceeding one weight percenttotal organic carbon or one weight percent suspended solids are considered "nonwastewaters"and must be treated to different LDR standards, as defined in 40 CFR Part 268.

Waste Profile Sheet, Block #6:

The generator must determine whether any constituent is above its LDR treatment standard. If so,the generator must provide the dangerous waste code and treatment standard that apply. Forwastewater that is dangerous as defined in WAC 173-303-070, waste characterization must besufficient to establish whether the wastewater is a restricted waste under the LDR provisions of40 CFR Part 268, and if so, to determine the applicable treatment standard(s). For wastewaterthat is state-only dangerous as defined in WAC 173-303-100, characterization must be sufficientto establish which, if any, of the state LDR requirements of WAC 173-303-140 are applicable.Because the ETF is a Clean Water Act-equivalent TSD unit (Ecology 2000c), the generator is notrequired to identify the underlying hazardous constituents.

12

HNF-3172 Rev. 4

Waste Profile Sheet, Block #V:

The generator must provide process knowledge or analytical data used to determine if theirwastewater contains PCBs, and whether the PCBs come from a TSCA source. Guidance fordetermining TSCA status of a waste can be found in the Toxic Substance Control ActPolychilorinated Biphenyls Hanford Site User Guide (DOE/RL-2001-50). This information isused by LWFS to determine whether additional sampling of ETF waste streams is required or, incertain cases, whether air emission documentation must be reevaluated.

Waste Profile Sheet, Blocks #9 and #10:

The generator must specify the volume, frequency, and method of shipment. This providesinformation for LWFS to manage receipt and treatment of the waste. For tanker shipments usingCHPRC tankers, the generator must comply with the requirements in HNF-PRO-2672 1, TankerOperations. Waste streams with the potential to have settling solids must be filtered with a 5micron filter prior to loading in the tanker. LWFS may be able to loan some equipment to assistwith filtering. For small container shipments (e.g., drum, carboy), the generator is required topickup their empty containers. ETF does not have the capability to triple rinse containers.

Waste Profile Sheet, Block #12:

The generator must provide the CERCLA reportable quantity and units, if applicable. Thisinformation is required if there were a spill of the wastewater at the LERF/ETF.

Waste Profle Sheet, Block #13:

Characterization of the wastewater must be sufficient to ensure that the wastewater is managed inaccordance with the facility-specific waste management requirements as dictated by permits,approval orders, and facility operational and safety considerations.

The generator must identify the physical, chemical, and radiological composition of thewastewater and attach supporting data. The generator is required to characterize the newwastewater for the target parameters listed in Appendix C. With LWFTS approval, the generatormay use process knowledge to reduce or eliminate the amount of sample analysis needed todetermine wastewater composition. For example, if a generator demonstrates that the processgenerating the wastewater does not include or involve organic chemicals, it is likely that certainorganic analyses may be eliminated. Alternately, additional analyses may be required if historicalinformation and/or process knowledge indicate that the wastewater contains constituents of concernnot included on the list of target parameters.

The following types of information may be used to characterize a wastewater:

* Documented data or information on processes similar to that which generated thewastewater

* Material safety data sheet (MSDS) information* Historical Data

13

HNIF-3172 Rev. 4

3.3 Waste Acceptance Process

Once the profile has been completed and determined to be adequate, LWFTS will perform anevaluation against the LERF/ETF waste acceptance criteria as derived from environmental, safety,and operational requirements. The process of accepting a waste into the LERF and ETF systemsinvolves a series of steps. The acceptance process is designed to take full advantage of theflexibility and robust nature of the LERF and ETF systems.

The combination of regulatory and operational limits imposed on the LETF/ETF influent definesthe LERF/ETF treatability envelope which is divided into a regulatory envelope and operationalenvelope. The LERF/ETF waste acceptance process involves the following three steps: (1)assemble wastewater information and screen for completeness; (2) compare wastewater toregulatory envelope; (3) compare wastewater to operational envelope. If the effluent forecast isoutside the LERVFETF treatability envelope, then LWFS will evaluate the modificationsnecessary for the effluent to be accepted at the LERF/ETF. These modifications could includephysical modifications at the LERF/ETF and/or regulatory permit/authorization basismodifications. Provided in Figure 2 is a flow diagram of the LERF/ETF waste acceptanceprocess.

For routine shipments/discharges that have been approved for receipt at the LERF/ETF, periodicre-evaluation of the wastewater is required. This typically includes periodic sampling of thewastewater. Routine sampling requirements are identified in an Interface Control Document(ICD), Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), or an administrative procedure, as discussed inSection 3.4, or a separate Sample and Analysis (SAP) that is prepared by the generator andconcurred by LWFS. The SAP identifies the rationale and strategy for sampling and analysis ofthe wastewater to ensure continued compliance with the LERF/ETF waste acceptance criteria.

3.3.1 Regulatory Envelope

The data provided in the profile is compared against the LERF/ETF regulatory envelope as

described in the following sections.

3.3.1.1 NEPA/SEPA

The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 requires federal agencies to examineall activities for their effect on the environment. A categorical exclusion for the ETF has beenprepared and approved by DOE. This categorical exclusion addresses minor modifications to theLERF and ETF and related support facilities to accept additional Hanford Site waste streams forroutine treatment. If treatment of a waste should result in substantially different types or volumesof discharges fro the proposed categorical exclusion, additional NEPA documentation may berequired.

14

HNF-3172 Rev. 4

3.3.1.2 Hanford Facility Dangerous Waste Permit and Final Delisting

Before a dangerous waste or mixed waste can be accepted at LERF or ETF, the waste codes onthe Waste Profile Sheet must be checked against the list of acceptable waste codes in theLERF/ETF portion of the Hanford Facility Dangerous Waste Permit (Ecology 2000c) as given inTable 3. The wastewater must also be in compliance with the Final Delisting Rule (EPA 2005).

3.3.1.3 TSCA Risk-Based Disposal Approval

The generator must provide process knowledge or analytical data used to determine if theirwastewater is a PCB Remediation Waste. Guidance for determining TSCA status of a waste canbe found in the Toxic Substance Control Act Polychlorinated Biphenyls Hanford Site User Guide(DOE/RL-200 1-50).

LWFS has an approved Risk-Based Disposal Approval (RBDA) application (EPA 2004) thatallows the acceptance of TSCA waste into the LERF/ETF. The RBDA imposes two limits ontotal PCBs that can be accepted at LERF/ETF. The upper limit is 6000 ug/L total PCBs in anywaste. Exceeding the action limit of 600 ug/L total PCBs in any waste managed at LERF/ETFrequires an update of the air emission risk evaluation before the waste can be managed atLERF/ETF.

3.3.1.4 State Waste Discharge Permit

Before an aqueous waste can be accepted at LERF/ETF, it must be compliant with the influentcriteria in ST4500 (Ecology 2000b). As required by ST4500, LWFS must maintain an Ecology-approved influent constituents list defining all constituents and maximum concentrationsacceptable for treatment in the ETF. All new wastewater constituents are compared to thisapproved constituents list. If the proposed wastewater contains a constituent of concern that isnot on the approved list, or it contains an approved constituent at concentrations more thantwenty percent over the approved concentration, then Ecology approval will be required to acceptthe new wastewater at the LERF/ETF.

3.3.1.5 Radioactive and Non-Radioactive Air Emissions

Air emissions at the LERF and ETF are governed by the Hanford Site Air Operating PermitNo. 00-05-006 (AOP 2006). For radioactive air emissions, the AOP limits the total curiequantity per year that may be processed through the LERF basins, load-in facility, and ETF.LPCS uses wastewater characterization data to project whether the annual possession quantitylimits will be exceeded if the proposed new wastewater were to be received at the LERF/ETF.

For non-radioactive air emissions, the AOP allows the LERF/ETF to receive and treat wastewatercontaining specific toxic air pollutants (TAPs). The NOC may need to be amended if the newwastewater contains any TAP not previously received by the LERF/ETF or contains anyapproved TAP at quantities exceeding the exemption limits identified in WAC 173-460-040(2)(c). Organic concentrations for incoming wastewaters are also used to determine iforganic emissions are compliant with 40 CFR Subpart AA and CC.

3.3.1.6 LERIF/ETF Radiological Inventory Management

The ETF and the LERF are classified at below Category 3 nuclear facilities. Wastewater acceptedat the LERF will be controlled so that the wastewater dose consequence does not exceed that of themaximum bounding radiological source term evaluated in the 242AL Liquid Effluent RetentionFacility Auditable Safety Analysis (TINF-SD-LEF-ASA-002). This maximum boundingradiological source term is provided in Appendix D. The 200 Area Effluent Treatment FacilityAuditable Safety Analysis Report (HNF-SD-ETF-ASA-001) requires that the ETF radiologicalinventory never exceed the Hazard Category 3 sum-of-fractions threshold of 1.0 (DOE-STD- 1027-92).

The LERF and the ETF are also designated criticality exempt facilities and must stay below 15grams of total fissile material. Maintaining a fissile material inventory for all wastewaterreceived at the LERF/ETF assures that the facility limits are not exceeded.

3.3.2 Operational Envelope

Before the wastewater can be approved for receipt at the LERF/ETF, it must be confirmed that itcan be effectively treated in the ETF process. Treatability concerns include the presence of solidsor precipitates which could foul filters or reverse osmosis units, the presence of compoundswhich interfere with ultraviolet/oxidation destruction of organics, and the generation ofsecondary wastes which cannot be properly dried (e.g., the solids melt instead of dry, etc.). Inmany cases, a small volume of unacceptable feed can be blended with other wastewater in theLERF to produce a feed that is acceptable.

17

HJNF-3172 Rev. 4

3.3.2.1 Solids Content

To prevent solids accumulation in the LERF Basins, wastewaters are required to be filtered througha 5 micron (nominal) filter before receipt at the LERF/ETF, unless a waiver from LPCS is obtained.The required filter micron sizing maybe less than 5 depending on the characteristics of the solids(e.g., colloidal) in the wastewater. The generator will be notified if any other wastewaterpretreatment (e.g., additional filtration, ion exchange, etc.) is required prior to its transfer to theLERF/ETF.

3.3.2.2 Compatibility with LERF and ETF Materials of Construction

Comnpatibility with LERF Material of Construction

To protect the integrity of the LERF liners, the compatibility of a wastewater with the linermaterials must be confirmed prior to wastewater receipt. The constituents of concern for linercompatibility, along with their limits, were developed in the 242-A Evaporator Data QualityObjectives document (TINF-SD-WM-DQO-0 14) and are presented in Appendix E.

Compatibility with ETE Material of Construction

The concentration and nature of dissolved solids in a wastewater can have a significant impactupon the ETF systems. The primary areas of concern include scaling of unit operations,corrosion, and ability to produce a dry powder secondary waste.

Scaling - Contaminants in wastewater passing through the reverse osmosis units concentrate asthe clean water is removed. To avoid scaling of the reverse osmosis membrane surface, theoperation of the unit is controlled so solubility limits are not exceeded. This is accomplishedboth by evaluating the concentration of scaling compounds (such as barium sulfate, calciumsulfate) in the feed and by the addition of anti-scaling compounds to the reverse osmosis unitfeed. The existing brackish waster membranes used in the reverse osmosis units at the ETF havea nominal upper feed limit of 0.5 weight percent dissolved solids.

Corrosion - High chloride and fluoride levels are a concern for the ETF materials ofconstruction, particularly in the secondary treatment train where the feed is concentrated in theevaporator. The secondary treatment train can be operated under acidic conditions or causticconditions depending on the nature of the waste being treated. When choosing the correct pHconditions, the evolution of off-gas (such as ammonia and iodine) is a consideration for safetyand regulatory concerns. For example, a wastewater containing high levels of ammonia istypically processed under acidic conditions to avoid ammonia gas emissions, and would not becompatible with a wastewater containing high levels of chloride/fluoride. The maximumammonia level in the evaporator brine under caustic conditions is 30 parts per million. Themaximum combined chloride/fluoride level in the evaporator brine under caustic conditions is10,000 parts per million (Divine 1998) with the maximum combined chloride/fluoride levelunder acidic conditions being 760 parts per million (Mausshardt 1995). The actual level of

18

HNF-3172 Rev. 4

chlorides/fluorides that may be accepted in the wastewater is determined by how the wastewaterwill be processed through the ETF, and must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Evaporator/Dryer Feed Composition - Detailed waste characterization data is necessary todetermine the drying characteristics of the concentrated waste (i.e., thin film dryer feed) that isproduced in the evaporator. The thin-film dryer nominal processing capacity is 2,000 pounds perday.

3.3.3 Tanker Shipping Requirements

Part of the waste acceptance process is to ensure that the wastewater is compatible with thetanker materials of construction and U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) shippingrequirements. The information from the profile is compared against the A2 quantities given in49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 173.435. The A2 quantities must be less than or equal toone for shipments using the Beall, Polar, or Walker tankers. Shipments with an A2 value greaterthan one will be handled on a case-by-case basis. LWFS will work with the generator to resolveany concerns. Compatibility concerns may require flushing of the tanker with process water afterthe shipment is unloaded.

3.4 Interface Control with Generators

For non-CHPRC generators of shipments/discharges of wastewater that have been approved forreceipt at LERF/ETF, an lCD between the generator and LWFS will be prepared per PRC-PRO-MS- 10472, Interface Management. The lCD establishes roles and responsibilities for performingliquid waste transfers and routine verification sampling. At the discretion of LWFS, anabbreviated ICD/MOU, such as the example in Appendix F, may be used.

For CHPRC generators of shipments of wastewater in tankers or have a direct tie-in to LERF, anadministrative procedure between the generator and LWFS maybe prepared. The procedureestablishes the roles and responsibilities for performing liquid waste transfers and routineverification sampling. At the discretion of LWFS, an abbreviated ICD/MOU, such as theexample in Appendix F, may be used.

CHPRC generators shipping wastewater in tankers listed in Section 3.0 must meet therequirements of TINF-PRO-2672 1, Tanker Operations. This procedure implements requirementsnecessary to ensure that operation of the CHPRC tanker fleet is safe, efficient, and in compliancewith regulatory requirements, procedural guidance, and best management practices.

3.5 Responsibilities

Generator transferring wastewater to the LERF/ETF for treatment must:

1) Determine the physical, chemical, and radiological characteristics of the wastewaterwith sufficient accuracy and detail to support proper designation and management ofthe wastewater in accordance with this document and all applicable requirements.

19

HNF-3172 Rev. 4

2) Certify accurate characterization and proper designation of the wastewater intendedfor shipment to the LERF/ETF using the waste profile sheet given in Appendix B.

3) For routine transfers, demonstrate that wastewater remains consistent with the profilethrough periodic sampling of the shipments. A SAP is generally used to document theagreement between the generator and LWFS on the sampling rational and strategy toensure continual compliance with the LERF/ETF waste acceptance criteria.

4) Prepare jointly with LWFS an Interface Control Document (ICD) or administrativeprocedure that establishes roles and responsibilities for performing liquid wastetransfers from the generating facility to the LERF/ETF, as required.

5) CHPRC generators using CHPRC tankers must comply with the requirements inHNF-PRO-2672 1, Tanker Operations.

6) For shipments of small containers (e.g., drum, carboy) pickup empty containers. ETFdoes not have the capability to triple rinse containers.

7) Notify LWFS if there are any deviations from the information provided on the profile.8) Pretreat wastewater as agreed prior to transferring the wastewater to the LERF/ETF,

as applicable.9) Notify the LWFS of the intended transfer schedule 60 days prior to the first

wastewater transfer.10) Direct the wastewater load-out at the generator facility and the wastewater transport to

the LERF/ETF.11) Maintain possession of the wastewater and be responsible for managing the response

to any spill or other incident up to the point of waste acceptance by the LWF S at theLERF/ETF.

12) Assure that containers sent to the LERF/ETF meet the applicable U.S. Departmentof Transportation (DOT) requirements of 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) fortransportation of hazardous material, if applicable, and are received in goodcondition.

13) Prepare waste shipping papers consistent with Hanford Site procedures. Shipradioactive or mixed waste using a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest,Radioactive Shipping Record, or Onsite Routine Radioactive Shipping Record asrequired by PRC-PRO-TP- 156, Onsite Hazardous Material Shipments, for onsiteshipments and PRC-PRO-TP- 15 7, Offsite Hazardous Material Shipments, foroffsite shipments.

14) Disposition containers entered into the Solids Waste Information and TrackingSystem (SWITS). LWFS does not require liquid waste containers received atLERF/ETF to be entered into SWITS. Nor does LWFS take responsibility for theaccuracy of the information that a generator may have entered into SWITS.

15) Maintain the wastewater transfer pipeline up to the agreed interface point with theLWF S (as applicable).

16) Decontaminate the tankers, by flushing and rinsing at the end of each campaign, to acondition suitable for subsequent contaminated liquid transport., if required.

17) Repair or replace (as appropriate) any tanker damaged while in the generator'spossession.

18) Incur all costs associated with:" the wastewater sampling and analysis;" pretreatment required by the generator;

20

HINF-3172 Rev. 4

" wastewater transfer to the LERF/ETF;" modifications to the generator load-out area to accommodate the tanker;" flushing or rinsing of borrowed tankers;" tanker replacement or repair of damage sustained while the tanker is in the

generator's possession;* generator technical support to the LWVFS for any permitting activities associated

with management of the generator's wastewater at the LERF/ETF;" LWFS overtime costs associated with LWFS personnel working to meet

generator milestones or commitments; and* LWFTS impacts due to generator wastewater nonconformance with the approved

profile.

L WFS will make every effort to accommodate the needs of the generator. The L WFS will:

1 ) Define the specific information that the generator must provide on the profile.2) Work with the generator to ensure the wastewater is adequately characterized.3) Assess each new wastewater against the LERF/ETF waste acceptance criteria.4) Accept the generator's wastewater provided the wastewater meets the LERF/ETF

acceptance criteria, the wastewater adheres to the profile, and the container is receivedin good condition. (To assure the safety of LPCS personnel handling the wastecontainers, a damaged container will not be accepted at the LERF/ETF.)

5) For routine transfers, provide input and concurrence of the generator SAP, ifapplicable.

6) Prepare jointly with LWFS an Interface Control Document (ICD) or administrativeprocedure that establishes roles and responsibilities for performing liquid wastetransfers from the generating facility to the LERF/ETF, as required.

7) Direct and perform off-loading of the generator's wastewater at the LERF/ETF.8) Notify generator to pick up empty containers, if applicable.9) Provide operator and radiological control support to the wastewater off-loading

activities at the LWFNS.10) Maintain responsibility of tankers and provide assistance to users when necessary

(e.g., procedure development, tanker modification, etc.).11) Schedule tanker shipments and determine priority.12) Provide tractors, teamsters, and shippers for generators, as needed.13) Manage tanker heel inventory, tanker maintenance schedules, certification testing,

modifications, drawings, vendor information, and test data files.14) Store all generator wastewater received at the LERF/ETF and treat in accordance with

the Final Delisting Rule (EPA 2005), the PCB Risk-Based Disposal Approval (EPA2004), and the Hanford Facility Dangerous Waste Permit (Ecology 2000c).
