1.0 The INL EM-Managed SNM Program

CPP-651 Unirradiated. Fuel Storage Facility

Page 3: INL SNF PROGRAM

1.1 INL's SNM Management Strategy• Empty CPP-651 by 04/30/05 (accelerated from

09/30/09)– CPP-651 is the only EM-managed Category I SNM

Facility at the INL. Emptying the facility will reduce overall security and program costs at INTEC.

• Anticipated Benefits:– Consolidation and dispositioning of SNM with

appropriate offices at appropriate sites.– Close a Security Category Level I facility.

Estimated S&S savings: ~$2M/yr.– Emptying of the Facility.

Estimated Ops savings: ~$600K/yr.

1.1 INL's SNM Management Strategy • Status and Accomplishments:

07/05/05 – Project is complete.This project dispositioned to appropriate programs, site and/or offices

What: 10 material types (2,221.1 kg U)How: Repackaged and shipped offsiteFrom: 3,978 original containers/itemsInto: 722 shipping containers.

In most cases, appropriate dispositioning allows beneficial reuse of valuable national resources.

07/19/05 – DOE-ID approved the downgrade of CPP-651 from a Material Access Area to a Property Protection Area.

Page 5: INL SNF PROGRAM

1.1 INEEL's SNM Management Strategy • Disposition all Remaining EM-Managed

Materials by 09/30/09– Materials located outside of CPP-651 are likely to

require disposal.

• Status and Accomplishments:– Other program offices have been alerted to the

availability of these materials.

– No interest was the response.

– Highest risk material (U-233) has been evaluated.

– Dispositioning discussions have been initiated.

– A basic plan has been established. √

1.3 The Future 1 The ICP Contract

– Effective 05/01/05, the INL EM-managed SNM program has expanded scope.

– The program will receive and manage certain materials from the NE program. The contractor shall:

– Dispose or disposition approximately 417 kg of SNM (listed in Table C.6 of the RFP) from TRA to an approved DOE or commercial disposal or storage facility by September 30, 2009.

– [47 separate items/categories of material; ~ 416.5 kg U.]

Page 8: INL SNF PROGRAM

1.3 The Future

2 Projected Accomplishments– All EM-managed SNM will have been

shipped offsite or dispositioned by 09/30/2009.

– New scope NE-owned SNM will have been shipped offsite or dispositioned by 09/30/2009.

Page 9: INL SNF PROGRAM

1.3 The Future

2 Needs– Receiving Site assistance for meeting

disposal WAC– EM/HQ assistance for termination of

safeguards– NNSA assistance to obtain approximately

14 SSTS

Status and Accomplishments:• DOE determines to design, NRC-license, build and operate the

SNFDSP.– 12/92 Initial Feasibility Studies published.– 11/94 Second Short Data Form submitted requesting 1998 LICP

funding.– 03/96 Mission Need Document for SNF DS Project.– 06/96 Project validated as a 1998 LICP.– 01/97 DOE redefines acquisition strategy from standard LICP to a

privatization procurement.– 01/99 DOE releases RFP.– 05/00 DOE awards contract to Foster Wheeler.– 11/01 The license application was submitted to the NRC.– 03/02 The NRC accepted the license application for formal review.– 11/04 NRC grants license. √

2.2 FY2005 Accomplishments for the INL

SNF Program • 10/26/04 – Transferred the last of six outdoor dry

storage casks containing spent nuclear fuel from the TAN-791 SNF dry storage pad to the newly constructed CPP-2707 SNF dry storage pad. This completes the final activity for consolidation of EM-managed SNF to INTEC.

• 01/29/05 – Completed transfer of standard TRIGA SNF from wet storage in CPP-666 to dry storage in CPP-603/IFSF. This is the first campaign in the wet-to-dry transfers planned for emptying CPP-666.

Page 14: INL SNF PROGRAM

2.2 FY2005 Accomplishments for the INL

SNF Program • 03/31/05 – Transferred SHADO 1 (fuel debris)

out of the South Basin of CPP-603.

• 08/31/05 – Completed receipt of eight planned onsite ATR SNF transfers (100%) at CPP-666 from the RTC.

• 09/21/05 – Placed the final ORR Peach Bottom SNF shipment into a dry storage vault at CPP‑749.

Page 15: INL SNF PROGRAM

2.2 FY2005 Accomplishments for the INL

SNF Program • 09/26/05 – Transferred eight of 109 planned Al-SNF

shipments from wet storage in CPP-666 to dry storage in CPP-603/IFSF. This is the second campaign in the wet-to-dry transfers planned for emptying CPP-666.

• 09/28/05 – Received two of the planned three casks (67%) from TRA to INTEC for storage at CPP-749.

• 09/28/05 – Received the planned DRR shipment (two casks Pulstar SNF from SUNY Buffalo) at INTEC for storage at CPP-603/IFSF.

Page 16: INL SNF PROGRAM

2.3 FY2006 Accomplishments for the INL

SNF Program • 10/18/05 – Received the last of the planned

three casks (100%) from TRA to INTEC for storage at CPP-749. This activity completes the consolidation of NE-managed SNF to EM space resulting from the exchange as planned within the two contracts.

• Present – Well into the 2nd of 15 planned transfer campaigns to empty CPP-666 of EM-managed SNF.

2.4 The Future

2 Projected Accomplishments– Complete MOA with NR to establish roles

and responsibilities, cost, scope and schedule to achieve return of NR SNF to NRF by 09/30/2012.

– Initiate construction of the SNFDSP.– The last wet storage facility will be emptied

with the transfer of SNF managed at CPP-666 to several dry storage facilities located at INTEC, ANL-W and NRF by 09/30/2012.

Page 19: INL SNF PROGRAM

2.4 The Future

3 Needs– EM/HQ to determine if sodium-bonded

SNF should be treated– EM/HQ to determine if epoxied SNF

should be treated– EM/HQ to determine if the baseline plan to

execute the SRS/INL SNF swap should proceed

– EM/HQ to negotiate ownership of EBR-II SNF managed at INTEC/CPP-666
