Abstract

This document presents equal hazard response spectra for the W236A project for the 200 East and West new high-level waste tanks. The hazard level is based upon WHC-SD-W236A-TI-002, Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis, DOE Hanford Site, Washington. Spectral acceleration amplification is plotted with frequency (Hz) for horizontal and vertical motion and attached to this report. The vertical amplification is based upon the preliminary draft revision of Standard ASCE 4-86. The vertical spectral acceleration is equal to the horizontal at frequencies above 3.3Hz because of near-field, less than 15 km, sources.

Technical Basis for Certification of Seismic Design Criteria for the Waste Treatment Plant, Hanford, Washington

Conference Brouns, T; Rohay, A; Youngs, R; ...

In August 2007, Secretary of Energy Samuel W. Bodman approved the final seismic and ground motion criteria for the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Hanford Site. Construction of the WTP began in 2002 based on seismic design criteria established in 1999 and a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis completed in 1996. The design criteria were reevaluated in 2005 to address questions from the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (DNFSB), resulting in an increase by up to 40% in the seismic design basis. DOE announced in 2006 the suspension of construction on the pretreatment andmore »« less
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Site Seismic Safety Program: Summary of Findings

Technical Report Savy, J; Foxall, W

The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Site Seismic Safety Program was conceived in 1979 during the preparation of the site Draft Environmental Impact Statement. The impetus for the program came from the development of new methodologies and geologic data that affect assessments of geologic hazards at the LLNL site; it was designed to develop a new assessment of the seismic hazard to the LLNL site and LLNL employees. Secondarily, the program was also intended to provide the technical information needed to make ongoing decisions about design criteria for future construction at LLNL and about the adequacy of existing facilities.

Effect of Soil Properties and Input Motion on Site Amplification Using Validated Nonlinear Soil Model

Journal Article Shrestha, Samyog; Kurt, Efe; Kim, Kyungtae; ... - Nuclear Technology

Here, three-dimensional (3-D) nonlinear site response analyses are conducted using finite element models of actual soil profiles from ten nuclear power plant (NPP) sites in the United States to investigate the effects of soil properties and input motions on site amplification. The modeling approach developed in this study combines several novel elements, such as 3-D analysis (including vertical motions), nonlinear inelastic behavior of soil (strain-dependent shear modulus reduction and hysteretic damping), formulation of nonreflecting boundary conditions at the base, and generation of realistic outcrop ground motions for specific sites. All these elements of the modeling approach are first validated usingmore »« less

Annual Review of the 200 West and 200 East Performance Assessments (FY2011)

Technical Report Nichols, W.; Mehta, S.; Ludwig, J.

This annual review provides the projected dose estimates of radionuclide inventories disposed in the active Low-Level Waste Burial Grounds (LLBGs) since September 26, 1988. These estimates are calculated using the original dose methodology developed in the performance assessment (PA) analyses (WHC-EP-06451 and WHC-SD-WM-TI-7302). These estimates are compared with performance objectives defined in the U.S. Department of Energy requirements in DOE O 435.1 Chg 13 and its companion documents (DOE M 435.1-1 Chg 14 and DOE G 435.1-15). All performance objectives are currently satisfied, and operational waste acceptance criteria (HNF-EP-00636) and waste acceptance practices continue to be sufficient to maintain compliancemore »« less

Startup of the New 200 West Pump-and-Treat, Hanford Site, Richland, Washington - 13214

Conference Byrnes, Mark; Simmons, Sally; Morse, John

On June 28, 2012, CH2M HILL Plateau Remediation Company (CHPRC) completed the construction and acceptance testing for a new 2,500 gallon-per-minute (gpm) pump-and-treat (P and T) system in the 200 West Area of the Hanford Site in Washington State. This system is designed to remove Tc-99, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethene (TCE), nitrate, and total and hexavalent chromium from groundwater using ion exchange, anoxic and aerobic bioreactors, and air stripping. The system will eventually remove uranium from groundwater using ion exchange as well. The startup of the P and T system is important because it will ensure that contaminants from the 200more »« less
