Results for the September Bimonthly Calendar Year 2022 Tank 50 Salt Solution Sample

In this Technical Report, the chemical and radionuclide contaminant results from the 2022 September bimonthly sample of Tank 50 salt solution are presented in tabulated form. The information from this characterization will be used by Savannah River Mission Completion (SRMC) for the transfer of aqueous waste from Tank 50 to the Saltstone Production Facility (SPF), where the waste will be treated and disposed in the Saltstone Disposal Facility. This Technical Report compares results, where applicable, to SPF Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) LIMITS and TARGETS that were established at the time the Tank 50 sample was obtained. The chemical and radionuclide contaminant results from the characterization of the 2022 September bimonthly sampling of Tank 50 were requested by SRMC personnel via a Task Technical Request (TTR). Details of the testing are presented in the Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) Task Technical and Quality Assurance Plan (TTQAP). This Technical Report is the TTR deliverable relating Salt Solution Analysis from the SRMC request. The following facts pertaining to the WAC are drawn from the analytical results, including analytical uncertainty, provided in this report. 1) WAC LIMITS and TARGETS were met for all analyzed chemical and radioactive contaminants for which the detection limits are below the WAC LIMITS and TARGETS; 2) Measured average concentrations of nitrate, nitrite and total mercury are approximately 24%, 9% and 12% of the WAC LIMITS, respectively; 3) Measured average concentrations of Tc-99 and I-129 are approximately 19% and 20% of the WAC LIMITS, respectively; 4) All other radionuclide average concentrations are at 4% or less of the WAC LIMITS and TARGETS.

PNNL prepares this Annual Site Environmental Report to meet the requirements of DOE Order 231.1B, Environmental, Safety and Health Reporting, and DOE Order 458.1, Radiation Protection of the Public and the Environment, assuring that the public is informed of any PNNL-Richland Campus or PNNL-Sequim Campus event that could adversely affect the health and safety of the public, site staff, or the environment. The report provides a synopsis of ongoing environmental management performance and compliance activities for operations that occur on the PNNL-Richland Campus in Richland, Washington, and at the PNNL-Sequim Campus near Sequim, Washington. It describes the location of and background for each facility; addresses compliance with applicable DOE, federal, state, and local regulations, and site-specific permits; documents environmental monitoring efforts and their status; presents potential radiation doses to staff and the public in the surrounding areas; and describes DOE-required data quality assurance methods used for data verification. The ASER summarizes site compliance with federal, state, and local environmental laws, regulations, policies, directives, permits, and Orders, and provides environmental management performance benchmarks and their status to the public, regulatory agencies, community officials, Native American tribes, and public interest groups.
