7. Following minor mechanical modification and recertification, the existing main crane in the<br />

221-U Facility would be functional and ready for use in Alternative 6 activities. Crane use<br />

would be limited to moving of equipment from the process cells to the canyon fieer4 c c<br />

where the equipment would be size reduced as necessary and placed back into the cells. The<br />

main crane would also be used to move the equipment from the canyon deck during size and<br />

volume reduction and placement into the process cells. The crane would be used for cover<br />

block movement, as well.<br />
