This Streamlined Approach for Environmental Restoration (SAFER) plan details the activities necessary to close Corrective Action Unit (CAU) 358: Areas 18, 19, 20 Cellars/Mud Pits. CAU 358 consists of sites located in Areas 2, 3, 12, 18, 19, and 20 of the Nevada Test Site (NTS), and is currently listed in Appendix III of the Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order (FFACO, 1996). CAU 358 as currently listed in the FFACO, consists of 27 Corrective Action Sites (CASs). Ten of these CASs are located in ''Potential Crater Areas'' and because of this, pose a potential safety risk to workers performing closure activities at these sites. For this reason, a FFACO modification requesting removal of these ten CASs from CAU 358 has been prepared and submitted for approval. Upon approval of the modification request, ten CASs will be removed from CAU 358 and placed in CAU 544, which is to be closed at a future date. Pending the approval of this FFACO modification, CAU 358 consists of the following 17 CASs: CAS 02-99-01, Oil Stained Dirt on Concrete; CAS 03-22-33, Bucket, Spill, Debris; CAS 03-99-04, Spill; CAS 12-30-02, Drill Holes; CAS 18-09-01, Mud Pit; CAS 19-09-05, Mud Pit; CAS 19-09-06, Mud Pit; CAS 19-09-07, Mud Pit; CAS 20-09-05, Mud Pit; CAS 20-09-08, Mud Spill; CAS 20-23-02, Postshot Cellar; CAS 20-23-03, Cellar; CAS 20-23-04, Postshot Cellar; CAS 20-23-05, Sump (Cellar); CAS 20-23-06, Cellar; CAS 20-37-01, Cellar and Mud Pit; and CAS 20-37-05, Cellar.
