1 Ii.1.4 Modify External Area<br />

2<br />

3 The following modifications would be performed to support partial demolition of 221-U,-and<br />

4 . Before demolition activities<br />

5 on 221-U can begin, the legacy structures that are physically attached to 221-U and those which<br />

6 are located within the environmental cop footprint must first be removed. In addition, prior<br />

7 remediation (by other projects) of waste sites within the footprint of the environmental cap<br />

8 would be verified.<br />

9<br />

10 The Alternative 6 approach conservatively assumes that all demolition debris from the legacy<br />

11 structures would be disposed at ERDF. During final design this assumption could be revisited to<br />

12 determine if decontaminating and recycling steps could be economically included to support<br />

13 DOE waste minimization goals.<br />

14<br />

15 H.1A.1 Disposition of Aboveground Legacy Structures. The aboveground structures<br />

16 identified in Assumption 4 at the beginning of this appendix would be demolished as part of<br />

17 Alternative 6.<br />

18<br />

19 H.1A.1.1 Demolition or the 276-U Solvent Recovery Facility. The 276-U Solvent Recovery<br />

20 Facility, attached to the southwest end of the 221-U Facility, is composed of walkways, tanks,<br />

('\21 and associated piping set in an opentoncrete basin. Decommissioning would involve removing<br />

22 the tanks, walkways, and all aboveground piping. The concrete basin and underground piping<br />

23 would be left in place. All pipe penetrations associated with this structure would be cut, sealed,<br />

24 and capped. Drains would be sealed with concrete. Concrete surfaces would be decontaminated<br />

25 using selected off-the-shelf technologies.<br />

26<br />

27 Tanks, steel framing, and concrete walls and Aeercanyon deck s could be removed concurrently<br />

28 with the canyon cleanout activities. The concrete could be left in place until the canyon is<br />

29 demolished, because considerable excavation would be required for complete removal and it<br />

30 may be more cost effective to do all concrete removal and excavation at the same time. If left in<br />

31 place, the concrete walls should be fenced for worker safety. Demolition debris would be taken<br />

32 to ERDF for final disposal. An option during final design would be to place some of the<br />

33 equipment eithetin cell<br />

34<br />

35 H.1.4.1.2 Demolition of the 271-U Office Building. The northwest side of the building must<br />

36 be leveled to allow access for a very large mobile crane for removal of the canyon roof slab and<br />

37 upper walls. This preparation would begin with demolition of the 271-U Office Building. This<br />

38 building is a concrete framed structure built against the northwest face of the 221-U Canyon.<br />

39<br />

40 There is a basement, three floors, and a reinfotced concrete slab roof. There is a concrete<br />

41 masonry perimeter wall supported on a basement wall, with interior masonry wa11s within the<br />

42 building. The roof is a reinforced concrete slab similar to the floors. The third floor is a<br />

('N 43 chemical makeup area with floor slabs up to 0.3 m(1 ft) thick that support chemical tanks.<br />
