NRC Comment No. 1: The BLEU project will involve storage and use of hazardous and reactivechemicals such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), concentrated nitric acid (HN03), ammonia (NH3)ammonium hydroxide (NH4 0H), and fuels. Chemicals such as fuel oil can beflammiable or explosive,and others may produce compounds that can be hazardous or explosive such as hydrogen (H2) andammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). Provide sufficient information on the chemicals and chemical processesbeing carried out to demonstrate safe handling of these materials during operations. This informationshould be at a level of detail sufficient to assess potential safety and environmental impacts. Whereverappropriate, reference existing documents that contain the information. Update the existing informationas needed to make it applicable to the present license amendment request. This information is needed sostaff can assess potential hazards, detection, and mitigation measures associated with the proposedprocessing and storage. Information requested includes:

(a) A list specifying each chemical (including concentration) to be used in the proposed processes forthe Blended Low Enriched Uranium (BLEU) Preparation Facility (BPF). Table I in Attachment 3 to theadditional information letter (Ref 1) does not identify the BPF chemicals.

* NFS Response to Comment No. l(a): The Building 333 BPF Process Flow Diagram shows wherechemicals will be used in the BLEU Prep. Facility (BPF).

* 70% nitric acid (HN0 3 ) solution will be used to dissolve the uranium materials, both highenriched uranium (HEU) and natural uranium (NU), to form uranyl nitrate solution. Thischemical will be purchased in bulk.

* 30% hydrogen peroxide (11202) solution will be added during nitric acid dissolution ofuranium oxides to reduce NOx emissions. This chemical will be purchased in containers,

* 30% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution will be used in combination with barium hydroxideand sodium nitrate to dissolve the aluminum in the UAIx alloy material. This chemical willbe purchased in bulk.

* 45% sodium nitrate (NaNO3) solution will be used with sodium hydroxide and bariumhydroxide to dissolve the aluminum in the UAIX alloy material. This chemical will bepurchased in bulk.

* Barium oxide (BaO) solid will be dissolved in water to form barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2)solution. The BaO will be purchased in containers but the size has not yet been determined.The procedure for dissolving the BaO has not yet been developed but since the reaction willgenerate much heat, care will be taken such that the procedure and tank design control theheat. The barium hydroxide solution will be as concentrated in barium as possible and usedin combination with sodium hydroxide and sodium nitrate solutions to dissolve thealuminum in the UAIx alloy material. The barium will combine with any carbonate presentin the sodium hydroxide solution to minimize forming uranyl uranium carbonate, which aresoluble in sodium hydroxide.

* Tributyl phosphate, (C4H9)3PO4, will be the extractant chemical in the solvent for theliquid-liquid extraction system that will purify uranyl nitrate solutions. This chemical willbe purchased in containers,_

* Normal paraffin fluid (specifically Norpars 12 fluid, a ExxonMobil Chemical product thatis 98 mass% linear paraffins, primarily Cl l-C12) will be the diluent chemical in the solvent

for the liquid-liquid extraction system that will purify uranyl nitrate solutions. This chemicalwill be purchased in_

* Sodium carbonate (Na2 CO3) solid will be dissolved in water to.form a 5% sodium carbonatesolution. The Na2 CO3 will be purchased in containers holding approximatealeach. This solution will be used to remove extractant degradation compounds from thesolvent in the uranium purification system.

* Process waste solutions (vapor condensate, wet scrubber effluent, sodium hydroxide solutioncontaining the aluminum, and raffinate from the liquid-liquid extraction system) will bedirected to two 800-gallon tanks in a new dike adjacent to the BPF. One tank will berestricted to collecting the basic waste solutions. The second tank will be restricted tocollecting the acidic waste solutions. These solutions will be pumped from the BPF to NFS'Waste Water Treatment Facility (WWTF) as necessary to be treated to meet therequirements of the NPDES permit. The basic and acidic solutions will be kept segregatedup to the time they are treated in WWTF.

uranyl nitrate tanks in the proposed Uranyl Nitrate Building (UNB) need to bespecified.

NFS Response to Comment No. l(b): Sizes and locations of storage tanks for chemicals and processwaste solutions are provided in Attachments II and III.

(c) Basic information regarding chemical reactivity and any new monitoring or leak detection plans forthe storage of chemicals and wastes associated with the proposed action(s). This information is neededto provide confidence that the potential for impacts from storage ofhazardous and radioactive materialshave been adequately assessed. This comment pertains to planned storage activities noted in thesupplemental environmental report (Ref 2) such as

*: Twenty-four tanks for storing uranyl nitrate solution in the UNBSec2.2.1.2.

* An tank for storing natural uranyl nitrate blend stock in the UNB(Section 2.2.1.2.2)

* Two storage tanks for Effluent Processing Building (EPB) effluentwaste (Section 2.2.12.4)

* HN03 , NH4 0H, and NaOH bulk chemical storage tanks in the BLEU Complex (Figure 4)* New waste tanks for acid, base, and wet scrubber effluent located in the BPF (Section 2.2.2.2)*: New waste water tank at the waste water treatmentfacility (WWTF) (Section 2.2.2.2)

NFS Response to Comment No. l(c): Detailed information concerning the controls that will beimplemented will be provided in the Integrated Safety Analysis (ISA) Summary necessary todemonstrate compliance with 10 CFR 70.61 Performance Requirements. As described in the referencedISA Planl, the hazards associated with the chemicals listed above will be evaluated as part of the ISAprocess.

To support the Environmental Review (10 CFR 51) a preliminary overview of these mitigative controlsare included in the table provided in Attachment II.

(d) An explanation of control schemes to ensure safe processing. For example, process controlmechanisms used to ensure safe calcinations where ammonium diurinate solids are converted to uraniumoxide should be described. This process has the potential to produce compounds that can be hazardousor explosive such as hydrogen (H2 ) and ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). IfNFSplans to use a processthat is identical to or consistent with an NRC-approved process, then NES should state this and providea reference. Also, if there are differences between an NFSprocess and an approvedprocess, then NFS

should describe the differences and provide additional information lo demonstrate that the process willbe safe. This information is needed to provide confidence that planned processing can be implementedin a safe manner.

NFS Response to Comment No. 1(d): The process and process support systems that will be usedin the BLEU Prep. Facility follow:

* HEU Storage - The containers of HEU materials will be stored in a vault and a high securitystorage area. Descriptions for storage areas of this type appear in Chapter 15.10 of NRC LicenseSNM-124.

* HE U Metal Sampling - This workstation will be new. When the HE U metal is packaged at theY-12 National Security Complex, they will place metal button pieces and swarfs (chips) createdwhen the buttons were broken in containers. After opening the container at NFS, inside theworkstation, the sample material will be collected from the swarfs.

* HE UAlx Alloy Dissolution - NFS will use a different process for dissolving UAIX alloy. TheHE UAlx alloy will be provided to NFS in the form of solid ingots (right cylinders). In thisprocess the UAIX alloy ingot will be placed in a dissolver with geometry favorable to nuclearsafety where sodium hydroxide with sodium nitrate and barium hydroxide will trickle over theingot dissolving the aluminum thereby leaving the uranium as sodium diuranate solid. (NFS isalso investigating using a mechanical means to size reduce the ingot prior to being placed in thedissolver.) The sodium nitrate helps the dissolution reaction create ammonia rather thanhydrogen and the barium helps keep the uranium insoluble. Since some hydrogen will begenerated during this dissolution step, there will be controls that will dilute the hydrogen with airto a safe concentration. In the case of an upset, the addition of sodium hydroxide mixture will behalted which will stop hydrogen generation. The sodium diuranate will be separated from thesolution and then nitric acid will be used in a dissolver with geometry favorable to nuclear safetyto dissolve the sodium diuranate to uranyl nitrate solution. The uranyl nitrate will be filtered andthen collected in a weighing system where it will be measured for uranium content. The uranylnitrate solution will then be moved to columns and then fed to a liquid-liquid extraction systemto purify the uranium.

* Liquid-Liquid Extraction -This system will purify the uranyl nitrate solution using equipmentthat is described in Section 15.3.8 of NRC License SNM-124. This system though will havedesign features that will keep the potential for a fire low enough that a wet-pipe sprinkler systemwill not be needed. The purified uranyl nitrate solution will be held in columns while waiting toproceed to HEU to LEU downblending.

* HE U Metal Dissolution - This system will be new. The HE U metal pieces will be placed infavorable nuclear geometry furnaces were the combination of heat and air will change the Umetal to U oxide. The U oxide will then be moved to a dissolver with geometry favorable tonuclear safety where nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide will be used to dissolve the U oxide touranyl nitrate solution. The uranyl nitrate solution will be held in columns while waiting toproceed to HEU to LEU downblending.

* HEU to LEU Downblending - This system is described in Section 15.3.13 of NRC LicenseSNM-124. The two tanks, blendstock dissolver tank and enrichment blend tank will be largerthan the tanks in Section 15.3.13. ITe blendstock dissolver tank will holdwwhilethe enrichment blend tank will hold The controls on 2 3 5U concentration remainthe same.

* LEU Product Certification - Section 15.3.14 of NRC License SNM-124 describes moving theLE uranyl nitrate solution to an evaporator feed tank and then converting the LE uranyl nitrate.The product in the BPF will be the LE uranyl nitrate so there will be a tank, like the evaporatorfeed tank, but the same size as.the enrichment blend tank. This tank will be used to hold the LEuranyl nitrate from the time the batch has been made until it is released to pump to the UranylNitrate Building at the BLEU Complex. The controls on 2 3 5U concentration in this tank are thesame as for the evaporator feed tank.

Figure 2 provides an overview of the BLEU Conversion Complex processes. The majority of theseprocesses have been operated safely for more than 20 years at the Framatome ANP Richland plant underNRC License SNM-1227. The areas that do not have a parallel in Richland are the Uranyl Nitratestorage area (UNB) and the Liquid Waste processing systems, indicated by the dashed borders on thediagram. Note that the Richland facility does routinely store and process uranyl nitrate solutions, but noton the scale of the UNB storage facility.

The UNB facility can store up to f of uranyl nitrate solution in twenty-fivestorage tanks. No other chemicals are used or stored in the UNB. UNB operations aremonitored/controlled via comprehensive instrumentation and a central control system. Spills areprevented by high integrity primary containment and continuous primary and backup level monitoring inall tanks, and secondary containment with leak detection. The only significant safety risk in the UNBoperation is nuclear criticality related. Comprehensive controls are in place to mitigate this risk asdocumented in the facility's nuclear safety and process hazards analyses.

The concentration and solidification of the concentrate for solid waste disposal are not practiced inRichland. The feed solution consists primarily of dilute sodium nitrate in water. It is concentrated in theevaporator by about a factor of 6, resulting in 400 g/l sodium nitrate solution for solidification and apurified overheads stream for disposal to the sewer. Evaporation of sodium nitrate solutions is acommon industrial unit operation. The central control system monitors process conditions and shuts offsteam to the evaporator if temperature and or pressure limits are exceeded. The carryover of ammonia insolution from the prior Ammonia Recovery operation could present some safety issues, but extensiveprocess controls are in place (feed tank and stripper bottoms pH, etc.) to prevent this. The only potentialhazard involved in the solidification step is operator exposure to excessive dust from the solidifyingagent. Containment and ventilation is provided as needed to preserve an acceptable operatingenvironment.

NRC Comment No. 2: References and descriptions are required regarding the fire protection programfor the proposed action and mitigation or control plans for specific hazards. This information is neededto provide confidence in the NFS approach to fire hazard mitigation and control at the proposed BLEUprojectfacilfties. Specifically, provide thefollowing:

(a) Documentation or references for the fire protection program that will be used for the proposedaction. Clarify whether a fire hazard analysis will be included in the integrated safety analysis and ifnot, provide the just fication.

NFS Response to Comment No. 2(a): As described in the referenced ISA Plan, NFS will evaluatecredible process upsets from external hazards, such as fires, severe weather, and seismic eventsnecessary to demonstrate compliance with the performance requirements specified in 10 CFR 70.61. Tosupport the ISA, NFS will perform a Fire Hazards Analysis (FHA) to identify credible accident scenariosthat may result in high or intermediate consequences and define the management measures that will beinstituted to comply with 10 CFR 70.61.

A listing of FHAs completed thus far, including the FHA for the Uranyl Nitrate Building to beconstructed at the BLEU Complex, is provided in Chapter 10, Section I of the referenced licenseamendment request2. Future FHAs that will be conducted for the remainder of the BLEU Complex willalso be documented in this section of the license. The FHAs will also provide the basis formethods/commitments that will be instituted to comply with applicable portions of the National FireProtection Association's (NFPA) Codes, as specified in Chapter 6 of NRC License SNM-124.

(b) Information on the approach to mitigate the consequence of hazardous vapor release in case of afire involving volatile compounds such as anhydrous ammonia and concentrated HN03.

NFS Response to Comment No. 2(b) As described in the referenced ISA Plan, NFS will identifycredible accident scenarios involving hazardous chemicals (e.g., anhydrous ammonia and concentratednitric acid) that result in "high" or "intermediate" consequences. For these accident scenarios, ItemsRelied On Safety (IROFS) must be instituted (and maintained reliable) to mitigate the consequences toan acceptable level of risk, as specified in 10 CFR 70.61.

(c) Information on the strategy to ensure that afire involving BLEU Complex propane and dieselfuelstorage and use does not propagate to other nearby buildings, tanks, and structures and vice versa.

NFS Response to Comment No. 2(c): As described in the commitments identified in NRC CommentNo. 2(a), NFS will perform a EHA and ISA for special nuclear material (SNM) processes located at theBLEU Complex. An evaluation of credible fire scenarios that involve or are initiated by flammableagents (e.g., propane and/or diesel fuel) will be included in the ISA/FHA. Mitigative controls (IROFS)will be instituted and maintained reliable to ensure that accident scenarios involving fires are compliantwith 10 CFR 70.61. Moreover, these safety evaluations are inclusive of fire that may originate frompropane or diesel fuel storage and propagate to nearby buildings and vice versa. The FHA that will be

submitted also provide the basis for methods/commitments that will be instituted to comply withapplicable portions of the NFPA Codes, as specified in Chapter 6 of SNM-124.

NRC Comment No. 3: Attachment 24 of the additional information letter (Ref 1) contains dose estimatesfrom radioactive emissions to air and water from the proposed actions. Provide the technical basis forthese dose calculations including the bases for effluent estimates and key assumptions. Transparency inthe documentation of calculations is necessaryfor staff to understand the technical basesfor estimates.

NFS Response to Comment No. 3: The technical basis used to calculate dose estimates is provided inAttachment IV.

NRC Comment No. 4: Identify any effluent permit (eg., air or water discharge) changes that will berequested as part of the proposed action. Section 4.1.1.2.1 of the supplemental environmental report(Reft 2) indicates that NFS will seek modifications to existing air permits for the BPF operation. Staffinterprets this to mean NFS will seek to modify the existing permit for the main stack Define"modifications to existing air permits "for the BPF operations and discuss any potentialfor degradation

in ambient air quality from these modifications. Information on changes to existing permitted releaseamounts is necessary to assess any changes to local air quality from the proposed action.

NFS Response to Comment No. 4: NFS is requesting an air pollution control construction permit beissued by Tennessee's Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), Division of Air PollutionControl to modify the existing air pollution control permit for the main stack (#416). Modification isnecessary to allow material input changes and installation of additional process and ventilationequipment. This modification deletes the processes in the now closed 200 Complex and incorporatesanticipated expansions of the Fuel Manufacturing Facility, as well as adding the BPF operations. Themodification of the air pollution control permit will not result in an exceedance of the National AmbientAir Quality Standards (NAAQS) as regulated by TDEC.

NFS currently has a NPDES permit allowing treated process wastewater to be discharged to theNolichucky River through Outfall 001. Treatment of BPF process wastewater will not require amodification to the current NPDES permit because no new processing chemicals will be used nor willthe additional throughput exceed permitted discharge limits.

NFS currently has a NPDES storm water discharge permit. This permit will not require modification asa result of construction and operation of the BLEU Complex. A separate storm water permit will beobtained for construction and operation of the BLEU Complex.

NRC Comment No. 5: Section 4.1.1.1.2 of the supplemental environmental report (Ref 2) indicates thatthe liquid effluent from the BPF will be processed at the NFS WWTF. Confirm the ability of the WWTFto manage the increased load from expected radiological and chemical emissions from the proposedaction. This information will support an assessment of the magnitude of any impacts from the proposedaction in relation to existing and past operations.

NFS Response to Comment No. 5: Historically, the wastewater treatment facility has treated processwaste water generated from down blending operations that occurred in the 200 Complex. The

radionuclide characteristics and chemical parameters associated with the BPF operation will be similar tothat of effluent generated from the former 200 Complex operations. Wastewaters generated from theBPF operation and treated at the WWTF will not require a modification to the NPDES permit.

'NRC Comment No. 6: Provide an evaluation of any potential for surface water impacts resulting fromconstruction of the proposed BLEU Complex (e.g., erosion) and any proposed associated mitigation orcontrol measures.

NFS Response to Comment No. 6: The BLEU Complex site is relatively level. Surface water runofffrom the BLEU Complex Site drains to ditches located on the northwest site boundary. These drainageditches exit to Martin Creek. As required by the Tennessee Department of Environment andConservation (TDEC), Division of Water Quality, a storm water construction permit will be obtainedprior to any land disturbing activities. Erosion and sediment control measures, such as straw bales andsilt fences, will be used to mitigate sediment run off into the drainage ditches and Martin Creek. Thesesediment control measures in combination with the level topography of the site will reduce the potentialfor surface water impacts during construction of the BLEU Complex.

NRC Comment No. 7: Provide the location and type of existing and proposed environmental mediamonitoring locations. This information may be subdivided by type of monitoring station. Thisinformation is necessary to provide confidence in the adequacy of the monitoring program to detectpotential releases from the proposed action. The following provide additional details to support thisrequest:

(a) Section 4.1.2 of the supplemental environmental report (Ref 2) indicates more groundwatermonitoring sites will be added to the monitoring locations specified in the environmental report (Ref. 3).Include in an updated figure the proposed groundwater monitoring locations for the new facilitiesassociated with the proposed action. Indicating which of the three zones (alluvial aquifer, shallowbedrock aquifer, or intermediate bedrock aquifer) the wells will be screened in and the number of wellsscreened in each zone. Staff needs this information to update Table 3.11 of the license renewalenvironmental assessment (Ref 4). The request for the table update was originally in a letter from M.Adams to B. Moore (Ref. 5). With the addition of new wells, also update the groundwater monitoringwell depth range. If this information is not available at this time, NFS should indicate when it will beavailable for NRC review.

NFS Response to Comment No. 7(a): Appropriate administrative and engineered controls will be inplace at the BLEU Complex to reduce the potential for spills which could lead to groundwatercontamination. Examples of engineered controls to prevent spills include dikes for storage tanks, levelcontrol indicators, and installation of above ground piping. Administrative controls will include revisionof the existing Spill Control and Counter Measures Plan and implementation of appropriate proceduresto minimize spills and clean them up in the event they occur.

At a minimum, one upgradient and three downgradient wells will be installed to monitor groundwater.Information regarding the location, number, screening interval and depth of monitoring wells is not yetavailable. This information is expected to be available in third quarter 2002.

Because the location of any potential wells has not yet been determined, this information (i.e., screening.zones) was not included in an update to Table 3.1.1 of the referenced Finding of No Significant Impactand Environmental Assessment (EAIFONSI)3 .

(b) Update thefigure of monitoring well locations (Ref 1, Attachment 20) to include the surface area ofthe NFS site where the BLEU Complex will be located.

NFS Response to Comment No. 7(b): Attachment V provides an updated drawing which includescurrent monitoring well locations and the surface area of the BLEU Complex site.

NRC Comment No. 8: The supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2) states that NFS environmentalmedia monitoring (except groundwater) will be covered by existing locations specified in theenvironmental report (Ref 3). The environmental report (Figure 12) indicates no air, vegetation, or soilenvironmental media monitoring stations are located to the immediate east, west, or south of the BLEUComplex (except for the background station) despite frequent winds to the south as identified in theenvironmental report (Ref 3) Figure 7. Clarify why areas adjacent and downwindfrom the proposedfacility are not to be covered by monitoring stations. This clarification should present the technicalbasis for considering the existing environmental monitoring locations to be adequate for monitoring theproposed new facilities. This information is necessary to provide confidence in the adequacy of themonitoring system to detect potential releases from the proposed action.

NFS Response to Comment No. 8: Additional monitoring locations for environmental media (e.g., air,vegetation, or soil) will be evaluated and submitted in the applicable license amendment request.

NRC Comment No. 9: NRC previously requested in the letter from M. Adams to B. Moore (Ref 5) thatNFS provide updates for Tables 4.1 and 4.5 of the license renewal environmental assessment (Ref. 4),which summarize the effluent and environmental monitoring programs, respectively.

(a) Sections 2.2.2.3.2 and 4.1.1.1.2 of Mhe supplemental environmental report (Ref 2) indicate that theNational Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit would regulate the storm water monitoring.Indicate whether or not the storm water will be monitoredfor radiological components.

NFS Response to Comment No. 10 (a): 'The current NFS NPDES Storm Water Permit does not requiremonitoring for radiological attributes. However, storm water runoff from the BLEU Complex will bemonitored for radiological constituents as described in Chapter 5 of the referenced license amendmentrequest for the UNB.

(b) Section 4.1.1.2.2 of the supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2, Figure 4) shows one storm watermonitoring point and one "potential " monitoring point. Clarify the status of the "potential " monitoringpoint and provide the basis for deciding whether it will be used. This information is needed to completethe description of the planned monitoring system.

NFS Response to Comment No. 10 (b): The potential monitoring point was identified in preliminarydesigns as a possible monitoring point for parking lot runoff However, due to design changes, all stormwater runoff from the site will exit at one location and the potential monitoring point will not be used.

NRC Comment No. 1!: Additional information is needed on the expected airborne emissions from theWVVTF to complete the staff understanding of the effluent management systems for the proposed action.The supplemental environmental report (Ref 2) does not specifically address airborne effluents from theWWTFfor the proposed action; however, Table I of Attachment 22 in the additional information letter(Ref 1) includes estimates of gaseous effluents. Identify which stack releases effluent from the WWTFand add the appropriate information to complete Attachment 4 (characterization of stack) andAttachment 14 (permitting and monitoring) of the additional information letter (Ref 1). This informationis provided for all other stacks associated with the proposed action. Clarify whether the term"gaseous, " when referring to effluents, includes all airborne effluents or just those in the gas phase.

NFS Response to Comment No. 11: The radiological emissions from the WWTF are not dischargedthrough a stack, therefore, these sources were modeled as fugitive emissions. The technical basis for thecalculated dose reported from the WW1TF is contained in Attachment IV.

NRC Comment No. 12 Clarify why the proposed sampling frequency for stacks of the UNB, oxideconversion building, and effluent processing building are different from the proposed samplingfrequency for stacks classified as "other uranium stacks" shown in Table 4.1 of the license renewalenvironmental assessment (Ref 4). Attachment 14 of the additional information letter (Ref 1) prescribesweekly sampling for the proposed stacks while the license renewal environmental assessment specifiesdaily sampling for "other uranium stacks." The technical bases for changes to existing programs areneeded to ensure the potentialfor environmental impacts have been considered.

NFS Response to Comment No. 12: NFS will sample air emissions from the UNB (Stack 501)continuously/daily, as described in Table 5.1, Combined Releases from Other Stacks of SNM-124. Thiscommitment is consistent with the stack sampling frequency contained in Table 4.1 of the referencedFONSI/EA. Future consideration will be given to modifying the frequency of sampling uranium stacks

to a weekly basis instead of daily; however, this request will be incorporated into a future licenseamendment request.

NRC Comment No. 13:. Clarify the characterization of gaseous effluezts from the effluent processingbuilding so staff can describe the proposed effluents completely in the environmental assessment.Attachment 4 of the additional information letter (Ref. 1) identifies ammonia as the only potentialeffluent from the effluent processing building: however, Table 16 from the supplemental environmentalreport (Ref 2) provides an estimated amount of uranium release from the same building. Provide acomplete listing of expected effluents from the effluent processing building.

NFS Response to Comment No. 13: The radiological characterization data for the gaseous effluentsdischarged from the Effluent Processing Building are contained in Attachment IV. These data provide acomplete listing of specific radionuclides that are expected to be discharged from the Effluent ProcessingBuilding.

NRC Comment No. 14: Describe the radiation protection plan/procedures that will be used to ensure allproposed actions are in compliance with 10 CFR Part 20. While NFS has an existing radiationprotection plan that is likely applicable to the proposed actions, a statement should be providedregarding whether modifications will be needed to the existing radiation protection program to ensureall activities related to the proposed actions are in compliance with 10 CFR Part 20.

NFS Response to Comment No. 14: NFS' Radiation Protection Program is currently described inChapters 3 and 12 of SNM-124. With the exception of describing methods to comply with 10 CFR20.1301, these sections of SNM-124 contain commitments/descriptions of methods used to comply with10 CFR 20. No significant changes to NFS' Radiation Protection Program are expected to support thislicensing action. However, minor administrative changes to NFS' Radiation Protection ProgramProcedures may be required to incorporate the addition of the BLEU Complex.

As described in the referenced FONSIIEA, NFS has previously been excluded from complying with thedose constraint specified in Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Fuel Cycle Standard (40 CFR190) because the principal activities conducted at the site were not directly supporting "the production ofelectric power for public use utilizing nuclear energy". However, changes to the environmental safetyprogram may be necessary to comply with this more limiting regulation that is now required due to thenature of the BLEU Project. To comply with the more limiting annual dose constraint of 25 millirem(dose equivalent to whole body or limiting target organ), NFS has proposed use of occupancy factors asdescribed in NUREG-17364 in Chapter 13 of the referenced license amendment request. Albeit newdose assessment methods have been proposed, the change to the regulatory basis further limits the annualdose standard from 100 millirem (10 CFR 20.1301) to 25 millirem.

NFS Response to Comment No. 15: The National Weather Service has reported no other tornados inUnicoi C6unty, Tennessee. Between 1950 and 2000, Unicoi County, Tennessee has experienced onetornado (Ref.1). Available 2001 data indicates no other tornados have occurred in Unicoi County5 .

NRC Comment No. 16: The supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2) indicates there have been recentchanges to the 100-yearfloodplain analysis conducted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.Provide an updated map of the 100-year floodplain. This information is needed to ensure theenvironmental assessment is based on current information.

NFS Response to Comment No. 16: The current map of the 100 year flood plain is provided inAttachment VI.

NRC Comment No. 17: Clarify whether the State Historic Preservation Office has been consultedregarding the proposed action. The environmental report (Ref. 3) indicates a Native Americanassociation existed within the area (eg.. the Overhill Cherokee once lived in the region). Although mostvillages were located 128 an [79.5 mij southwest of NFS, the NFS area may have been usedfor huntingand gathering activities. Although there are no known sites within the NFS protected area, it is not clearin the supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2) whether appropriate consultation with appropriatetribal officials has been conducted.

NFS Response to Comment No. 17: As stated in the 1996 Environmental Report, NFS has noknowledge of pre-historic or historic archaeological sites on the NFS plant site and no National Registerof Historic Places are identified as being located on the NFS site. The NFS facility was constructed inthe late 1950's. Several buildings have been added over the years and other land disturbing activitieshave been conducted since the late 1950's. NFS has no knowledge of pre-historic or archaeologicalartifacts being encountered during these activities. Additionally, the Tennessee Historical Commissionhas evaluated the northern portion of the plant site and determined that it did not contain any listedNational Register Historical Places or eligible properties6 . NFS believes the historic characteristics ofthe North NFS plant site are similar to the southern plant site. However, to clarify this issue, NFS hassubmitted a letter to the Tennessee Historical Commission requesting a historical evaluation of theproperty. Per a phone conversation with the Tennessee Historical Commission on March 14, 2002, theyhave not identified the proposed BLEU Complex Site as having historical significance. NFS willprovide NRC a copy of the Historical Commission's letter when it is received.

NRC Comment No. 18: Clarify whether construction activities will be monitored for archeologicalvalue. The supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2) does not provide any information on this issue.

This information is needed to ensure potential archeological resources are not impacted by the proposedconstruction.

NFS Response to Comment No. 18: NFS has no knowledge of the presence of pre-historic or historicarchaeological artifacts at the proposed BLEU Complex site. As stated in NFS' response to NRCComment No. 17, NFS will obtain clarification on the historical significance of these properties from theTennessee Historical Commission. If the Tennessee Historical Commission agrees with NES' evaluationof historical significance then the site will not be monitored for archaeological value. However, if thesite is identified as having archeological value, then the site will be monitored in accordance with StateRegulations.

NRC Comment No. 19: Provide information on potential seismic hazard at the site. Also provideinformation on the relationship between possible seismic activity and the design offacilities to be used inthe BLEU project. The ground acceleration that buildings and storage facilities will be constructed andconfigured to withstand should be defined. This information is needed to provide confidence that designrequirements are sufficient to mitigate potential seismic hazards.

NFS Response to Comment No. 19: Performance Technologies, Inc. conducted a seismic analysis7, asrequired by License Condition S-28 of SNM-124 in Calendar Year 2001 for the NFS site. As describedin this report, a peak ground acceleration of 0.06 g with a return period of 1000 years was calculatedusing site-specific parameters obtained from the NFS site.

NFS is required to address the "Baseline Design Criteria" in the design of new facilities or processesduring the ISA process to ensure that the design provides adequate protection against natural phenomena(e.g., earthquakes) as described in 10 CFR 70.64 Requirements for New Facilities or New Processes atExisting Facilities. The new facilities at the BLEU Complex will be constructed to meet the standardsspecified in the Southern Building Code. This standard provides assurance that new facilitiesconstructed at the BLEU Complex will comply with the 10 CFR 70.64 requirements.

While 10 CFR 70.64 states that retrofits are not required to existing facilities (like the BPF) that maycontain new processes, NFS intends to upgrade the BPF to meet the Southern Building Codespecifications. This will ensure that the BPF will also withstand natural phenomena events.

NRC Comment No. 20: Update or clarify the inventory of public and private water supply wells andsprings within an 8-km [5-mi] radius of the site. Table 14 of the environmental report (Ref 3) indicatesthere were six public water supply wells within a 8-km [5-miJ radius of NFS, while the license renewalenvironmental assessment (Ref 4) indicates there were seven such wells. Clarify whether the watersupply wells are screened in a groundwater system that is connected to the aquifer underlying the site ofthe proposed action. The current number and location of groundwater wells is importantfor describingthe existing environment and understanding the potentialfor environmental impacts on groundwater.

NFS Response to Comment No. 20: Table 14 of the environmental report indicates that there were fivepublic water supply wells within a 3-mile radius of the NFS facility. This information is based on thePublic Water Systems database for Unicoi and Washington Counties. Section 3.6.2 -of the EnvironmentalAssessment End Finding of No Significant Impact report indicates that -there were seven publicgroundwater supply wells within an 8-lkm (5 mile) radius of the site. Both of these statements appear tobe correct but the disconnect is in the radius of search. The 3-mile radius search has been used moreextensively in the past (i.e., injection permits) and is more relevant to the NFS facility based on theregional flow regime. Therefore the five public water supply wells within a 3-mile radius of the NFSfacility will be discussed in terms of the of hydrostratigrahic formations and how they relate to the NFSfacility.

One public water system well was listed on the Public Water Systems database for Unicoi County withinI mile from the NFS facility. The groundwater well, approximately 0.75 miles northeast (up-gradient) ofthe NFS facility, is owned by Erwin Utilities and listed as Railroad Well. This well appears to bescreened in the same hydrostratigraphic formation that underlies the NFS facility. However, the well islocated up gradient of the NFS facility and modeling performed in 1996 indicates that groundwaterwithdrawn from the Railroad Well does not originate beneath or down-gradient from the NFS facility.

Erwin Utilities obtains water from one well (Birchfield Well) and one spring (O'Brien Spring) locatednortheast of the NFS facility. The Birchfield Well is not located down gradient from the NFS facilityand is not screened in the same hydrostratigraphic formation that underlies the NFS facility. TheO'Brien Spring is not located down gradient from the NFS facility and the source does not appear to befrom the same hydrostratigraphic formation that underlies the NFS facility.

USA Raft, Inc. and Nolichucky Gorge Campground each obtain water from springs located south of theNFS facility. Neither spring is located down gradient of the NFS facility nor does the source appear tobe from the same hydrostratigraphic formation that underlies the NFS facility.

Additionally, two privately owned wells and one spring have recently been identified as being locatedwithin a three mile radius of the plant site. These wells and spring are located north-northwest of theNFS plant site and across the Nolichuckey River. Completion data on the wells is not known; however,it is not believed that the capture zone of these wells lies beneath the NFS site. Hydrogeologiccharacterization of the NFS vicinity indicates a groundwater flow regime where groundwater exits to thesurface at "sinks" such as the Nolichuckey River. Therefore, water on the opposite side of the river ofNFS flows toward the Nolichuckey River. The origin of the spring is not known, however, it is likelythat the watershed area which feeds the spring is located to the mountains north of the spring.

NRC Comment No. 21: Provide a discussion of the hydrostratigraphic units and associated hydroiogyunderlying the proposed site for the BLEU Complex. This is requiredfor a complete description oflizeaffected environment, and for assessing the potential for environmental impacts on groundwater. Thisinformation will also support the staff evaluation of new monitoring well locations near the propoedfacilities.

portion of the proposed BLEU Complex site. Therefore, there is sufficient data to conclude that thehydrostratigraphic units and associated hydrology underlying the proposed site for the BLEU Complex isthe same as that of the NFS site. A discussion of the hydrostratigraphic units and associated hydrologyunderlying the NFS facility is described-in Sections 3.5 and 3.6 of the environmental report.

NRC Comment No. 22: The supplemental environmental report (Ref 2) indicates that (i) outfall 001 islocated at mil 94.6 on the Nolichucky River, (ii) the US. Geological Survey Embreeville gauge station isdownstream at mile 96.8, (iii) and the Jonesborough intake is downstream at mile 86.8. Mile markervalues are continuous and monotonic, therefore it is not possible for both markers 96.8 and 86.8 to bedownstream from 94.6. Clarify this information.

NFS Response to Comment No. 22: The U.S. Geological Survey Embreeville gauge station is locatedapproximately 2.2 miles upstream of the Jonesborough water intake (mile 86.8), not 2.2 miles upstreamof NFS outfall 001. The Embreeville gauge station is located at mile 89.0, not mile 96.8 as initiallyreported in the supplemental environmental report.

NRC Comment No. 23: A reference or technical basis is requiredfor the statement (Ref 2. p. 3-6) thatno known threatened or endangered species are known to potentially reside on the NFS site. Theresponse should address both plant and animal species. This information is needed to complete thedocumentation for the environmental assessment.

NFS Response to Comment No. 23: Table 14 (p. 3-6) of the Supplemental Environmental Reportpresents federally listed threatened and endangered animal species known to potentially exist in the areasurrounding NFS to include all of Unicoi County, Tennessee. The Tennessee Department ofEnvironment and Conservation, Division of Natural Heritage8 has published a list of threatened andendangered species according to quarter quadrants. The BLEU Complex and NFS are located in thesoutheast quadrant of the Erwin quadrangle. No federally listed threatened or endangered plant or animalspecies are identified by the State of Tennessee as residing in the southwest or southeast quadrants of theErwin quadrangle. Based on historical information, the BLEU Complex site was previously used foragricultural purposes and endured continuous disturbance. It is likely that any potential threatened orendangered plant species would not exist because of the previous land use Therefore, NFS believes thatno indigenous plant or animal species would be affected by the construction of the BLEU Complex onthis site.

NRC Comment No. 24: The supplemental environmental report (Ref 2) provides "backgroundradioactivity" data for gross alpha (Table IS). NFS states that these measurements are for "mediapotentially affected by NFS operations. " This is inconsistent with the NRC definition of backgroundradiation in 10 CFR Part 20 which would exclude areas affected by NFS operations. Provide

measurements, of background radiation that are consistent with the NRC definition. Also provide atechnical basis for limiting the reported measurements to gross alpha emissions.

NFS Response to Comment No. i4: Table 15 provides background radioactivity data.for ambient air,soil, sediment and water.. The terminology "Media Potentially Affected by NFS Plant Operations"means that these media (air, soil, sediment and water) may potentially be affected by plant operations.This does not mean that the sample locations and data presented in Table 15 are contaminated by NFSplant operations. Media potentially affected by NFS operations are routinely monitored and compared tobackground radioactivity. Background locations are monitored to determine background radioactivitylevels in the vicinity of NFS for the following media: ambient air, sediment, soil, vegetation, and water.Data from the background monitoring locations (i.e., those located in unaffected areas consistent with theNRC's definition of background), averaged over the period of 1996 through 2000, are shown in Table 15(page 3-7).

Currently, the major dose contributing radionuclides at NFS decay by alpha particle emission. Internaldoses attributable to alpha emitting radionuclides account for the majority of the potential dose tomembers of the public, attributable to NFS radionuclides. Therefore, SNM-124 only specifies grossalpha action levels for sediment, soil, vegetation, and groundwater. SNM-124 does specify gross betaaction levels for ambient air samples, but the gross beta concentrations at NFS' offsite ambient airsampling locations are routinely below the action levels and less than 2 times the backgroundconcentration. Therefore, although gross beta concentrations are routinely monitored at all samplinglocations and for all sample media, this information was not included on Table 15.

NRC Comment No. 25: Table 17 ofSection 4.1.1.2.1 of the supplemental environmental report (Ref 2)indicates several air pollutants are currently at the allowable limit. The addition of the estimatednitrogen oxide emissions from the proposed BLEU Complex (Rev. 2, Table 18) to the current estimatedactual emission (Table 17 of the supplemental environmental report) would result in an overall nitrogenoxide emission that would exceed the allowable limit (Table 17 of the supplemental environmntalreport). Describe NFS' approach for attaining compliance with the regulatory limits with the additionalBPF and BLEU air emissions. This information is needed to clarify that the potential impacts lo airqualityfrom the proposed action have been assessed.

NFS Response to Comment No. 25: The allowable emission limitations presented in Table 17 (par 4-2) represents a sum of allowable emission limitations from all NFS air quality permits in effect as of9/6/2001. Each air pollution source has allowable emission limitations based on material input anddesign criteria. Prior to constructing an air pollution source, application must be made for an air polhimoncontrol construction permit. The application requires all material inputs and emission estimate beidentified and quantified. After construction is complete, the approved construction permit conditionsbecome the operating permit. NFS' approach for complying with regulatory requirements is to submit anapplication for an air pollution control construction permit for each new emission source (BLEUComplex) according to the planned construction schedule. The same process is required for exitingsources (main stack #413) where material inputs and operational parameters will change (e.g., BLEUPreparation Facility). Once air permits are issued, NES attains compliance by meeting the pernitconditions.

NRC Comment No. 26: Update with current information the discussion on Prevention of SignificantDeterioration in the supplemental environmental report (Ref 2, p. 3-1). Reference is made to a 1996 U.S. Department of Energy report stating that no Prevention of Significant Deterioration permits have beenrequiredfor any emission source at NF&

NFS Response to Comment No. 26: Since the promulgation of Environmental Protection Agency's(EPA) Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) regulations (40 CFR Part 52.21), no PSD permitshave been required for any emission source at NFS. To qualify for a PSD permit, the source must beproposing a major modification or the source must already be major and is proposing a significantincrease. NFS is not a major source. The definition of significant increase is defined in the regulationsas a single modification that results in a net emission increase of 250 tons per year or more of a regulatedpollutant. NFS has not approached this level of emissions for any pollutant nor will it with projectedemissions from the proposed licensing actions.

NRC Comment No. 27: Provide additional information on the radiological history and status of the soilat the location of the proposed BLEU Complex construction. NFS has identified contamination in thearea from a number of radionuclides and has reduced this contamination by removing soil. Plannedconstriction is expected to excavate 2,550 m3 [90, 000 23] of soil as described in the supplementalenvironmental report (Ref. 2). Attachments S and 12 of the additional information letter (Reft 1) indicatethat an initial gamma survey was conducted to identify areas of contamination. The gamma survey wasfollowed by soil sampling (to a depth of 7.6 cm [3 in] following excavation of 0.5 in [1.5ft] of soil) andisotopic analysis to determine more precise concentrations in the high gamma areas. 7te attachmentsprovide limited information on soil survey results used to determine postremediation concentrations anddose calculations for planned construction activities. Provide the following to clarify the radiologicalstatus of the area. This information is needed to ensure appropriate plans are in place to maintainradiological safety during construction and provide the necessary technical bases to assess potentialenvironmental impacts.

(a) Information on the radiological history ofthe area (ie., suspected origin of contaminants).

NFS Response to Comment No. 27 (a): Based on personnel interviews and historical aerialphotographs of the site, in the late 1960's the northwest comer of the BLEU Complex site wastemporarily used to store process equipment purchased from another facility. The equipment was eithertemporarily moved out of the nearby 310 Warehouse or it was temporarily placed in the site's northwestcomer because it could not be placed in the warehouse due to space limitations. The temporary storageof items intended for the 310 Warehouse is the most likely origin of the northwest corner's contaminants.

(b) Additional details regarding the initial gamma survey including scan minimum detectableconcentrations for the radionuclides of concern, survey locations, and scan duration at each surveylocation.

NFS Response to Comment No. 27 (b): The initial gamma survey performed in May of 2001 was notperformed to determine if the area was "clean" but was a scoping survey performed to determine thegeneral radiological status of the site. Scan minimum detectable concentrations (MDCs) for the

radionuclides of concern were not calculated because-it was a scoping survey conducted to scan forpotential fission products which may have been present as a result of Studsvik processing activities. Thescan MDCs were not calculated after the survey was conducted because the scan rate was not recorded.The scan rate is a variable in the equation for determining scan MDCs. However, typical scan MDCsare provided in Table 6.4. of NUREG 1507 and are as follows:

Am 31.5Th-232 1.8

The May 2001 survey included the entire area of the BLEU Complex site but covered much less than100% of the area. The survey was a walkover survey and only locations of elevated areas (greater than1.5 times background) were recorded. Static surveys were not performed at discrete locations soinformation about scan durations at survey locations is not available.

The gamma survey performed in June of 2001 was a walkover survey conducted in the northwest comerof the site to define the area to be excavated. Samples were collected from elevated areas to determinethe required depth of excavation.

The gamma surveys performed in September and October of 2001 were walkover surveys conducted inthe excavation areas. Samples were collected from elevated areas to determine if the elevated soilidentified during the gamma survey had been removed.

(c) Description of the technique used to determine isotopic concentrations in the soil samples.

NFS Response to Comment No. 27 (c): The isotopic uranium, thorium, plutonium and americium datapresented in Attachment 5, Table 1 of the additional information to support an Environmental Review forthe BLEU Project were analyzed by alpha spectroscopy. The plutonium-241 and technetium-99 datawere analyzed by liquid scintillation. O'Brien and Gere Laboratory in Syracuse, NY performed theanalyses.

(d) Confirmation that all significant levels of contaminants have been identified and removed at theproposed construction site.

NFS Response to Comment No. 27 (d): NFS has defined significant levels of contamination for theproposed BLEU Complex Site as levels that could give a 25 mrem total effective dose equivalent(TEDE) to any member of the public during construction of the BLEU Complex. Once construction ofthe nuclear facility is complete the most significant exposure pathway for members of the public will beeliminated. Soil concentrations equivalent to 25 mremn/yr for a construction worker scenario areprovided in Revision I of the NFS document titled Potential Dose Due to Radiological Contaminants inNorth Site Soil and Groundwater (Appendix D, page D-327).

Radiological contamination has been found at a few locations, which were limited to a small portion (i.e.,<5% of the site) of the proposed site, in the northwest comer of the site. These locations were initiallyidentified by a gamma contamination survey that was performed on the proposed site in May 2001. The

Attachment IACF-02-0063

gamma survey was performed using a judgmental straftegy intended to represent each portion of the site,and was not intended to cover 100% of the site. Soil samples collected from the elevated locationsindicated that the sum of fractions (SOF) for these locations only ranged between 1.4 and 0.5, withoutsubtracting background soil concentrations. The average SOF.for the entire BLEU Complex site isexpected to be well below 1.0, when background soil concentrations are subtracted from the results.

The northwest comer of the proposed site has since been remediated to lower levels, but those levels arestill above natural background levels. The TEDE to members of the public, attributable to the fugitiveemissions during excavation of the BLEU Complex, was estimated to be 0.0112 mrem, per the NFSdocument titled ISA Source Term Data and Radioactive Effluent Estimates for the TVA Project(Attachment IV) which is well below any levels of concern.

The initial gamma contamination survey was able to identify locations with elevated soil concentrationsbelow a SOF of 1.0, and helps to confirm that significant contamination levels never existed on themajority of the proposed site. NFS believes the contamination is isolated to the northwest comer of thesite. Based on NFS' historical knowledge of the proposed site and the remediation performed on thenorthwest comer of the site, NFS believes significant contamination levels are no longer expected to bepresent on the proposed site. However, NFS will conduct additional characterization to confirm thatsignificant levels of contamination are not present at the site before construction begins.

(e) Clarification regarding whether a radiation protection program will apply to this area duringconstruction activities to ensure worker safety and whether additional soil sampling and radiologicalcharacterization will be done during excavation.

NFS Response to Comment No. 27 (e): The proposed BLEU Complex site is not considered aradiological control area; however, periodic monitoring will be conducted to ensure that no exposurepotential exists.

NFS Response to Comment No. 27 (g)

Any excess soil that is excavated during construction will be stored on the NFS site until its ultimatedisposition is determined. Soils containing radiological constituents will be dispositioned in accordancewith applicable regulations.'

NRC Comment No. 28: Clarify the commitment in Attachment 10 to the additional information letter(Ref 1) to monthly monitoring of Tc-99 in Well 38 Attachment 20 of the same document indicates Well38 is abandoned.

NFS Response to Comment No. 28: Well 38 was relocated due to the installation of tanks to supportadditional treatment capabilities at the Waste Water Treatment Facility (WWTF. The additional tankswere to be placed on the gravel area that Well 38 was occupying. The newly installed well (Well 38R)was located approximately 15 feet north (true north) of Well 38, and is down gradient of potential Tc-99source areas. The new well was installed to the same specification as Well 38 with a 4-inch diameter, 5-foot long poly vinyl chloride (PVC) screen and a 4-inch diameter, 10-foot long PVC casing. The screenand casing were installed to a depth of 15 feet below ground surface. Monthly sampling of well 38R isconducted for Tc-99.

NRC Comment No. 29: Provide additional surface and groundwater monitoring results at the site toallow staff to complete the description of current conditions in the environmental assessment. Tilefollowing table updates were requested by NRC in the letterfrom M. Adams to B. Moore (Ref. 5):

(a) To complete the update of Table 4.8 of the license renewal environmental assessment (Ref 4)regarding environmental monitoring for gross alpha emitters in downstream surface water samples andstream-sediment samples, provide the surface water data from Banner Spring Branch. This informationwas not included in the additional information letter (Ref 1). The updated information for sites otherthan Banner Spring Branch has already been provided in Table 24 of the supplemental environmentalreport (Ref 2).

NFS Response to Comment No. 29 (a)

The gross alpha data for surface water and sediment samples from Banner Spring Branch wasinadvertently omitted from the additional information letter. The table below provides the requestedinformation to complete the update of Table 4.8 of the license renewal environmental assessment.

Providerecent well- and zone-specific data for uranium, thorium, plutonium,, and Tc-99 concentrations. Thisinformation was not included in the additional information letter (Ref. 1).

NFS Response to Comment No. 29 (b)

Attachment VII provides gross alpha, gross beta, uranium, thorium, plutonium and Tc-99 data for wells98A, 99A and 100A. Isotopic analysis is generally only performed when gross alpha activity exceeds 15pCiIL and gross beta exceeds 50 pCi/L.

(c) To update Table 4.10 and Table 4.11 of the license renewal environmental assessment (Ref 4)provide recent well-specific data for gross alpha and gross beta activities for the vicinity of the surfaceimpoundments. Also provide recent well-specific data for thorium, uranium, plutonium and Tc-99. T7hisinformation was not included in the additional information letter (Ref 1).

NFS Response to Comment No. 29 (c): Attachment VII provides gross alpha, gross beta, isotopicuranium, thorium, plutonium and Tc-99 data for wells 52, 101A, 102, and 103A. Wells 26 and 28 wereabandoned in August 1997 and October 1998 respectively. Available data for well 28 is in AttachmentVII. Isotopic analysis is generally performed only when gross alpha activity exceeds 15 pCiIL and grossbeta exceeds 50 pCifL.

NRC Comment No. 30: Provide a technical basisfor the statement in the supplemental environmentalreport, Section 4.1.1.2.2 (Ref 2) that excess magnesium in storm water discharge (Table 20) isfrom

natural background and not from industrial activities. This information is necessary to complete thedescription of the existing environment.

NFS Response to Cormment No. 30: In 1998 NFS performed a study to evaluate magnesiumconcentrations in surface water and groundwater. The study involved obtaining upgradient samples fromBanner Spring Branch and the Nolichucky River and reviewing historical data from NFS' backgroundmonitoring well No. 52. The magnesium concentrations ranged from 3 mg/l to 11 mg/I for samplescollected at these surface and groundwater monitoring locations. The 1998 NFS NPDES Storm WaterPermit limit for magnesium was 0.0636 mg/L. The information has been provided to TDEC, Division ofWater Pollution Control. Ms. Qualls agreed9 that the magnesium limit for NES was not appropriate andexempted NFS from monitoring for magnesium for Calendar Year 2000 stormwater discharges(Attachment VIII).

NRC Comment No. 31: NFS refers to the proposed U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)maximum concentration limit for uranium in the supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2, pp. 4-9 and4-10); however, the EPA has completed the final rulemaking. The value did not change from theproposed to final rulemaking, however, NFS should refer to the final rulemaking in any subsequent useof the EPA maximum concentration limitfor uranium.

NFS Response to Comment No. 31: The referenced document cited in the text of the supplementalenvironmental report was written prior to final rulemaking and the maximum contaminant level (MCL)for uranium was a proposed MCL. NFS acknowledges that EPA has since prescribed a MCL for uraniumat 30 pCi/L in the final rule

NRC Comment No. 32: Some tables in the supplemental environmental report (Ref. 2) are missinginformation that is needed to evaluate data being presented. Specifically:

(a) Gross alpha activity values in Table 15 and surface water chemical concentrations in Table 23 donot specify the statistic being presented (e.g., single data value, average, or maxima).

NFS Response to Comment No. 32 (a): Table 15 (page 3-7) in the supplemental environmental reportrepresents the average background radioactivity in the vicinity of NFS from data obtained in 1996through 2000 for each station and media evaluated. Table 23 (page 4-7) in the supplementalenvironmental report represents annual averages of each chemical parameter.

(b) Table 16 activity units for air emissions have no time dimension.

NFS Response to Comment No. 32 (b): Table 16 (page 4-1) in the supplemental environmental reportrepresents annual radiological emissions estimates from each building of the BLEU Complex.

This document provides the basis for the radioactive source term data and the radioactiveeffluent e6timates that were calculated for the project to dowfl-blend high enriched (HE) uraniuminto low enriched (LE) uranium reactor fuel to be used by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVAProject). The information provided by this document is intended to support the integrated safetyanalysis (ISA) consequence analyses and to document the radioactive effluent estimates for the

*TVA Project. The following sections provide a summary of the inf6rmation needed for the ISAconsequence analyses and a summary of the radioactive effluent estimates. Detailed informationregarding these- calculations and the assumptions that were used are included in the attachments.'Note that significant changes in the process data associated with the TVA Project may requirethese calculations to be revised, to account for the process change.

A summary of the radionuclide concentrations for the various process streams is providedin Table 2-2. The radionuclide concentrations in the discard streams were calculated by dividingthe annual quantity of untreated radionuclide processed at the WWTF by the annual averagemass of uranium processed in each discard stream.

The concentrations for the caustic discharge stream were calculated assuming that thepercentages of uranium and the radioactive impurities going with the caustic discharge streamremain unchanged. The BPF process will use centrifuges to separate the uranium from thecaustic discharge stream. These centrifuges may change the radionuclide ratios, causing some ofthe impurities to be concentrated in the caustic discharge stream. If the radioactive impurities areconcentrated to a significant degree, the consequences analyzed using the data in Table 2-2 maybe biased low. When a consequence has been evaluated as being just below the next higherconsequence level, more accurate source term data may be needed to ensure that the consequencelevel is not any higher than what was already indicated.

.*Radionuclide Data for theTVA Project's Feed Material

The sample data for the liE U metal buttons, from BWXT Y-12 Memorandum HDPO/DTO1-31 (BWXT,2001), was compiled and averaged. The data was converted to the same units of concentration (i.e. pCi/gto pCi/g U) using the average uranium purity.

The ratio of Th-230:U -234 was calculated from the averaged results (1.19E-04). The average age for theHE U metal buttons was calculated to be approximately 13 years, using the Th-230:U-234 ratio and tfleRADDECAY Version 5.0 computer program. The age of the material was used to determine-thequantities of the radionuclides that were not specifically analyzed for that belonged to a decay series.Radionuclide concentrations were estimated by multiplying the concentration of a measured radionuclideto the ratio of the decay fractions, for radionuclides in the same decay series.

The HE U metal buttons could contain additional radionuclides that were not analyzed for in the samples,which may be significant because of their radiological properties. Radionuclides that could be prcscrltbut could not be accounted for using radionuclide decay equations include: Sr-90, Y-90, Pm-147, 13u- 154,I'u-24 1, and Am-24 1. Quantities of these radionuclides were cstimatcd using radionuclidc data ondischarged reactor fuel from a uranium fueled 1000 MWc pressurized water reactor. The data used wasprovided by Tables S.1 and 8.4 of the textbook titled ANticlear Ch'entical EngiLee'ring (Benedict. 198 1).T11is was the best data availablc at the time of the calculations. because data specific to thi IHE U metalwas not available. Excerpts of these tables are included at the end of this attachment. Isotopic ratioswere calculated for each potentially unaccounted for radionuclide using the referenced tables.

The fission product ratios wvere calculated using the data at the time of dischargc fior discharged reactorfuel, from Table S.1. Fission product concentrations were estimated by using the average Cs-137concentration from the measurements and determining how much Cs-137 was present at the time ofdischarge (i.e. 13 years ago). The Cs-137 concentration at the time of discharge was then multiplied bythe ratio of the fission product to Cs-137. to yield the concentration of the fission product at the tinme ofdischarge. The fission product concentration was then decay corrected for the estimated age of thematerial (i.e. 13 years). A Y-90 concentration was estimated from the estimated Sr-90 concentration byassuming Y-90 was in secular equilibrium with Sr-90.

Plutonium-241 was estimated using the average Pu-238 concentration from the measurements and thedata in Table 8.4, which provides data for 150 days after discharge. The Pu-238 concentration wasdetermined for 150 days after discharge (i.e. 13 yr - 150 days = 4595 days ago). The Pu-238concentration, at 150 days after discharge, was multiplied by the ratio of Pu-241 to Pu-238, to yield theconcentration of Pu-241 during the same time period. The Pu-241 concentration was then decaycorrected for the estimated age of the material (i.e. 4595 days). The concentration of Am-241 was thenestimated by multiplying the Pu-241 concentration by the ratio of Am-241 :Pu-241 for 13 year oldmaterial.

Table A-I provides a summary of the radionuclide concentrations that were used for all furthercalculations. The other tables in this attachment provide the supporting data that was used to compileTable A-I

The radionuclide concentrations inithe HE UAlI alloy ingots are the same (on a pCi/g U basis) as the HE-'U metal buttons. The -only difference between these two forms of feed material is the aluminum.

The concentration for the low enriched uranyl nitrate solution (LE UN) was calculated by summing theannual quantities processed for the three uranium feed material streams used for the down blending (ic.

*HE U metal buttons, HE 0AI alloy ingots, and Natural U Oxide). The radionuclide concentrations inthe LE UN were calculated by dividing the Ci/y of each radionticlide processed by the kg U/yr of IE UNprocessed, which results in radionuclide concentrations in units of pCi/g U after some unit conversions.

Calculation of Unit Dose Factors: BPF Gaseous Effluents

Unit dose factors for the gaseous effluents from the BPF were calculated for I Ci/yr releases of eachradionuclide using the CAP88-PC Version 2.0 atmospheric dispersion anid dose assessment computermodel. These factors; in units of mrem/Ci of radionuclide released, were used to estimate the potcigialannual dose to the maximally exposed individual (MEI) attributable to the facility's radioactive gaseouseffluents.

CAP8S8-PC Version 2.0 Input Data:

Tfhc mcteorological data used for the calculations was obtained from the Nl:S' 1996 Emvironmenal)Report. The wind data filc that was created using the rcferenced nmcicorological data has been namedNI'S5Y.WNI). Tfhe referenced mcetorological data also included: 1) an annual average preeci)itation of103.4 cm, 2) an annual average ambient temperature of 13 "C. and 3) an S00 m lid height.

Thc "rural" sclection wvas chosen for the EPA Food Source Scenario, using all of hic default parametersassociated with this selection. Dose calculations w%'ere performed for the followinu distances: 150.200,250, 300. 350, 400. 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750. 800. 850. 900; 950. 1000. 1500. and 2000 meters.All particle sizes were assumed to be I pml AMAD. The default solubility classes were used -. call casesexcept for the following radionuclides, which have solubility classes that are dictated by NWS ProcedureNFS-HS-A-27 (NFS, 1999).

Th-230 and Th-232 Class WPlutonium Isotopes Class WTc-99 Class W

The radioactive gaseous cffluents from the BPF will be released via the 416 Main Stack. The physimlstack height is 33 in. the stack diameter is 1.52 m. the plunm rise is momentum dominatcd. and thecxitvelocity is 10.77 tn/s.

The maximally exposed individual was determined to be 700 m in the NNE direction.

* Calculation of Unit Dose Factors: WWVTF Gaseous Effluents

Unit dose factors for the gaseous effluents from the. WWTF were calculated for I di/yr rcleasesof each radionuclide using the CAP88-PC Version 2.0-atmosphlric.dispersion and doseassessment computer model. These factors, in units of mrem/Ci of radionuclide released, were'*used t6 estimate the potential ahnual dose to the maximally exposed individuaL (MEI)attributable to the facility's radioactive gaseous effluents.

CAP88-PC Version 2.0 Input Data:

The meteorological data used for the calculations was obtained from the-NFS' 1996Environmental Report. The wind data file-that was created using the referenced meteorologicaldata has been named NFS5Y.WND. Theyreferenced meteorological data also included: 1) anannual average precipitation of 103.4 cm, 2) an annual average ambient temperature of 13 'C,and 3) an 800 m lid height.

The "rural" selection was chosen for the EPA Food Source Scenario, using all of tile defaultparameters associated with this selection. Dose calculations werc performed for the followingdistances: 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400,450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950,1000. 1500. and 2000 meters. All particle sizes were assumed to be I ilm AMAD. The defaultsolubility classes were used in all cases except for tic following radionuclides, which havesolubilily classes that are dictated by NFS Procedure NFS-HS-A-27 (NFS, 1999).

Th-230 and Th-232 Class WPlUtOniu1m lsotopesClass WTc-99 Class W

The radioactive gaseous effluents from the WWTF were modeled as an area emissions source(i.e. di ffuse source). The release height was assumed to be 1 0 m, the arca size was assumed to be1O m 2, and the plume rise was set to zero.

The maximally exposed individual was determined to be 150 m in the NNE direction.

Caliulation ofiUnit Dose Factors.- BLEU. Complex Gaseous Effluents

Unit dose factors for the gaseous effluents from the BLEU Complex were calculated for I Ci/yrreleases of each radionuclide using the CAPA8-PC Version 2.0 atmospheric dispersion and doseassessment computer model. These factors, in units of mrem/Ci of radionuclide released, wereused to estimate thie otenitial atinualAQse to the maximally exposed individtual (Ml')attributableto the facility's radioactive gaseous effluents.

CAP88-PC Version 2:0 Input Data:

The meteorological data used for the calculations was obtained from. the NFS' 1996Environmental Report. The wind data file that was created using the referenced meteorologicaldata has been named NFS5Y.WND. The referenced meteorological data also included: 1) anannual average precipitation of 103.4 cm, 2) an annual average ambient temperature. of 13 0C,and 3) an 800 m lid height.

The "rural" selection was chosen for the EPA Food Sourcc Scenario, using all of the defiultparameters associated with this selection. Dose calculations Were performed for the followingdistances: 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900,950,1000. 1500. and 2000 meters. All particle sizes wvere assuncd to be I Stm AMAD. The defaultsolubility classes were used in all cases except for the following radionuclides, which havesolubility classes that are dictated by NFS Procedure NFS-HS-A-27 (NFS, 1999).

Th-230 and Th-232 Class WPlutonium IsotopesClass WTc-99 Class W

The radioactive gaseous effluents from the BLEU Complex will be released via three proposedstacks. A single set of unit dose factors was developed for use with each of the three stacks bycalculating weighted averages for each of their physical characteristics, because the mostsignificant physical characteristics (i.e. stack height and exit velocity) were relatively equal. Theestimated uranium releases for each stack were used for the calculation of the weighted averages.The average physical stack height is 15.99 mn, the average stack diameter is 0.656 m, the pJlule

rise is momentum dominated, and the average exit velocity is 9.40 m/s.

The maximally exposed individual was determined to be 300 m in the NNE direction.

Liquid effluents generated from the BPF vwil be sent to the:Wastewater Treatment Facility*.(WWTF) for treatment prior to being discharged to the Nolichucky River. Offsite dosesattributable to liquid effluents were calculated in accordance with NFS Procedure NFS-HS-A-66(NFS, 2001c).

* Minimum Removal Factor Calculations:

The spreadsheet specifies "Minimum Removal Factors" for the WWTF, which are the minimumfractions that the WWTF needs to reduce the radionuclide content to comply with the dischargel limits specified in SOP 299. Minimum removal factors were specified for the most significantdose contributing radionuclides, because treatment factors for the WWTF were not available.The discharge limits of SOP 299 are based on the concentrations specified in 10 CFR Part 20,Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. The annual average concentrations were calculated for each ofthe discard streams by dividing the annual radionuclide quantity released by the annual volumeof the discard stream. The minimum removal factors were calculated by dividing the applicableAppendix B concentration by the annual average concentration. Details on the calculation of theminimum removal factors can be found in Table G-1.

Unit Dose Factor Calculations:

Unit dose factors wvere calculated for the liquid eftiucuts using the NFS tcchnical basis documenttitled Dose Faclors & Action Levelsfor WS14'TF Rmlioactive Liqui(l E:lutents (NFS, 2001 b). Thisdocuminent provides the basis for the unit dose factors and provides unit dose factors for a limitedlist of radionuclides. Unit dose factors for additional radionuclides wverc needed for thesecalculations, and wvere calculated in accordance with tile methods prescribed by the technicalbasis document. A summary of the unit dose factor calculations has been included in tlls hack ofthis attachment.

Note: The alpha limits are procedural discharge limits for the WWTF. The W\VWTF can not dischargc batchcs cxcecding these limits, without the Environmental SafetyManager's approval to do a dose based release per NRC License SNM- 124. Thc removal factors for the rarrniatc were disregarded because they were unrealisticand thatdischarges of treated raMnate can not only be released when they cxceed the alpha limits without mIanwagIlniLet approval. The WWTF has nearly the same removal efficiencyfor uranium and thorium. As a result, the uranium removal factor was used (or thoriutm. Thc Ra-224 removal factor was rounded to 0.4000.

Fugitive emissions are only expected during the construction of the BLEU Complex, specificallyduring the excavation portion of the construction. Only a portion of the proposed 3LEU Complex site-has elevated soil concentrations (i.e. concentrations above natural background) that could produceradioactive fugitive emissions. Section 2.2.1.ofNFS' Supplemental Environmental Report S2001a) provides an estimate of the total volume of earth to be excavated and the amount of surfaceArea to-be excavated. Tie volume and the surface in the Supplementq! Environmental Report wereused to calculate the average excavation depth.

Calculation of Unit Dose Factors: BLEU Complex Fugitive Emissions

Unit dose factors for the fugitive emissions from the BLEU Complex were calculated for I Ci/yrreleases of each radionuclide using the CAP88-PC Version 2.0 atmospheric-dispersion- and doseassessment computer model. These factors, in units of mremlCi of radionuclide released, wereused to estimate the potential annual dose to the maximally exposed individual (MEI)attributable to the facility's radioactive fugitive emissions.

CAPSS-PC Version 2.0 hiput Data:

Thlc neteorological data used for the calculations was obtained from the NFS' 1996E.ini-irolnmetnl Report. The wind data file that was created using the rcfcrcnced mctcorologicaldata has been named NFS5Y.WND. The referenced meteorological data also included: 1) aliannual average precipitation of 103.4 cm, 2) an annual average ambient temperature of 13 0C,and 3) an 800 m lid height.

The "rural" selection was chosen for the EPA Food Source Scenario, using all of tile defaultparameters associated with this selection. Dose calculations were performed for the followingdistances: 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950,1000, 1500, and 2000 meters. All particle sizes were assumed to be I pum AMAD. The defaultsolubility classes were used in all cases except for the following radionuclides, which havesolubility classes that are dictated by NFS Procedure NFS-HS-A-27 (NFS, 1999).

Th-230 and Th-232 Class WPlutonium Isotopes Class WTc-99 Class W

The radioactive fugitive emissions from the BLEU Complex will be released from ground level,as an area source type. The physical release height is 0 m, the area of the source is 1,072 m2

(1 1,540 fl2), and the plume rise was set at zero.

The maximally exposed individual was determined to be 1 50 m in the NNE direction.

[Holman, Charlie] The impacts are specifically addressed inTVA'sROD in the Federal Register, 66(23): 57997-58002. Here are someexcerpts(edit and use as necessary):Impact of Blendstock Selection (Provisions 1 and 2)

DOE evaluated a number of different options for providing uraniumblendstock to blend the HEU (FEIS pages 2-4 & 2-14). These includeddepleted uranium and natural uranium both in the form of UF6 anduranium oxide powder. The natural or depleted UF6 to be provided to TVAalready exists in DOE inventory at the USEC. Transfer to TVA would beaccomplished at the USEC site by a "book transfer"' to the TVA -

inventory already in storage at USEC. Therefore, no environmentalimpact would result from this transfer action. Since a UNH blendingprocess will be utilized both at SRS and NFS, UF6 must be convertedinto uranium oxide powder for dissolution into UN solution. TVAevaluated the alternative of converting the UF6 to uranium oxide at oneof its commercial fuel fabricators versus procuring uranium oxidepowder directly on the commercial uranium market. The total cost ofshipping the UF6 (either natural or depleted uranium), conversion touranium oxide powder, and shipping the powder to NFS for dissolutionwas greater than procuring the powder directly. Furthermore, theenvironmental impact of the UF6 conversion to powder would be greater.

proximately 50-70 shipments of depleted or natural UF6 from the USECCilities in Paducah, Kentucky, or 50 shipments of depleted UF6 from

oak Ridge, Tennessee, would be required. The FEIS evaluated shippingUF6 to the GE (now Global Nuclear Fuel--GNF) plant in Wilmington, NorthCarolina, from Paducah (a distance of 1,278 km) or from Oak Ridge (a

Re: NPDES Permit No. TNRO50873Nuclear Fuel ServicesStorm Water Monitoring for Magnesium

Dear Mr. Baer:

In response to your letter of February 18, 1999, we agree with your request, and grant that NFS is exempted frommagnesium sampling in the fourth year of the permit (year 2000).

It seems obvious that background magnesium concentrations in your area are much higher than the permit cutoffconcentration in our TMSP permit. The concentrations of magnesium you have found in your storm waterdischarges appear to be the result of background levels and not the result of your industrial activities.

Also, the magnesium cutoff concentration of 0.0636 mg/I seems unnecessarily low, and we are consideringmodifying the TMSP to change this number. In the meantime, you are exempted from monitoring magnesiumfor the the year 2000.

Please keep a copy of this letter in your files as record ofourdecision. If you have anyquestions about thismatter, you may call Robert Haley at 615-532-0669, ore-mail at rs .t

Sincerely,

~ay.SQualls, P.E.
