This document provides a record of the organic end state analysis of tank 2414-103. Tank 241-U-103 is one of twelve 22.9-meter (75-feet) diameter single-shell tanks in the 241-U Tank Farm in the 200 West Area of Hanford. This tank was built in 1943-1944 and has a capacity of 2,006 kiloliter (E) (530 kilogallon [kgal]). According to Hanlon (1999), tank 241-U-103 currently contains 1840 kL (468 kgal) of waste comprised of 1639 kL (443 kgal) saltcake, 45 kL (12 kgal) sludge, and 49 kL (13 kgal) Supernatant. Included in those volumes is 867 kL (229 kgal) drainable liquid. The pumpable volume is estimated at 825 kL (218 kgal). The waste is designated as non-complexed (NCPLX). Tank 241-U-103 is a flammable gas Watch List tank. Tank 241-U-103 has not been declared as a leaker.
