Appendix G -Detailed Description ofAlternative 4: DoFJRtr2oo1-1 i<br />
Entombment with Internal and External Waste Disposal Rev.1 Draft n<br />

1 canyon surface to reduce the dose rate and contamination risk to the lowest possible level. Water<br />
2 jet, water blasting, or water-flushing activities would be more difficult if completed after the<br />
3 process cell drain header and cells are grouted because all water would need to be collected and<br />
4 taken to the 200 Area's Liquid Effluent Remediation Facility for treatment. If any surface<br />
5 removal work is identified, carbon dioxide blasting or scarifying would be the preferred method<br />
6 for its removal instead of water blasting or flushing.<br />

8 G.13.6 Fix Contamination on 221-U Interior Surfaces. After the cover blocks are placed and<br />
9 grouted on the process cells and hot pipe trench, the existing bridge eFanesg= would no longer<br />
10 be needed. Use of the eFe-es= ranc for movement of the containerized waste would be a potential<br />
11 source of contamination. 'Therefore, they would be parked at the north end of 221- U, their oil<br />
12 would be drained, and the power source disconnected.<br />
13<br />
14 + It is assumed that surface contamination on the canyon walls, 4aesrcAq3on deck s, and ceiling can<br />
15 be addressed with application of a fixative. This fixative would be applied after all equipment<br />
16 removal (including the bridge crane) and grouting in the canyon is complete. It would provide<br />
17 containment for loose surface contamination during containerized waste placement within the<br />
18 ^ canyon. Prior to beginning container placement on the n on de k, the<br />
19 fixative application would be inspected.<br />

^21 G.IA Modify External Area<br />
22<br />
23 The following modifications would be performed to support placement of waste inside 221-U.<br />
24 Before waste placement begins within 221-U, the aboveground structures that are physically<br />
25 attached to 221-U and those that are located within the footprint of the environmental cap must<br />
26 be removed. In addition, prior remediation (by others) of waste sites within the footprint of the<br />
27 environmental cap would be verified.<br />
28<br />
29 The Alternative 4 approach conservatively assumes that all demolition debris from the legacy<br />
30 structures would be disposed at ERDF. During final design this assumption could be revisited to<br />
31 determine if decontaminating and recycling steps could be economically included to support<br />
32 DOE waste minimization goals.<br />

34 G.1.4.1 Disposition or Aboveground Structures. The aboveground structures identified in<br />
35 Assumption 2 at the beginning of this appendix would be demolished as part of Alternative 4.<br />
36<br />
37 G.1.4.1.1 Demolition or the 276-U Solvent Recovery Facility. The 276-U Solvent Recovery<br />
38 Facility, attached to the southwest end of the 221-U Facility, is composed of walkways, tanks,<br />
39 and associated piping set in an open-concrete basin. Decommissioning would involve removing<br />
40 the tanks, walkways. and all aboveground piping. All pipe penetrations associated with this<br />
41 structure would be cut, sealed, and capped. Drains would be sealed with concrete. Concrete<br />
42 surfaces would be decontaminated,ifrequired,using selected off-the-shelfteehnologies.<br />
(ON3<br />
44 The concrete slabs and wall would be demolished with conventional dcmolition equipment.<br />
