Title: Maintenance Implementation Plan for the 100K Fuel Storage Basins and 100N Reactor

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:10177036

The 100N Reactor and 100K Fuel Storage Basins facilities are located in the northwest quadrant of the US Department of Energy, Richland Field Office (RL) Hanford Site adjacent to the Columbia River approximately 35 mi from the city of Richland Washington. The 100N Reactor is a graphite-moderated pressure tube, light watercooled reactor constructed in 1959--1963. Conversion of the IOON Reactor to produce byproduct steam for electrical production was authorized in September 1962. The 100K Area is a dual reactor site constructed in 1954--1955. Each reactor facility, K East and K West Reactor complexes, are almost identical in design, construction, and geographic orientation, and are separated by approximately 2,000 ft. This MIP includes all activities associated with (1) all structures and facilities located within the site area designated as the 100N Area, except for those facilities in which Kaiser Engineers Hanford and Operations Support Services organizations are in residence, and (2) those portions of structures and facilities located within the site area designated as 100K that are directly associated with the operation and maintenance of the fuel storage basins in 105 K East and 105 K West Buildings. Specifically excluded from this plan are all structures and facilities (or portions thereof) that have been assigned to, or operated by, organizations other than the 100N Reactor Plant Organization.
