The Savannah River Site (SRS) Tank Farm Transfer Control Program Description Document (PDD) requires Inhalation Dose Potential (IDP) testing to determine whether a transfer qualifies as a “HIGH-REM” (> 2.08E+08 rem/gal) or a “LOW-REM” (≤ 2.08E+08 rem/gal) waste transfer. Due to the unexpected presence of solids in a variable depth sample taken from Tank 9H, transfers from salt tanks potentially containing insoluble solids are currently being assessed as sludge slurry transfers. The insoluble solids concentration of such samples were requested to be adjusted to 16.7 wt% for the results to be used to bound future transfers from that tank. Two samples, HTF-09-21-100 and -101, were received from Tank 9H for analysis to determine IDP. The initial percent insoluble solids concentrations of HTF-09-21-100 and -101 were measured at 4.04 wt% and 6.23 wt%, respectively. Sample HTF-09-21-101 was adjusted to a target of at least 16.7 wt% insoluble solids by removing supernate. Analysis measured the adjusted insoluble solids concentration at 19.0 wt%. A representative sample was obtained for analysis. Then, based on calculations, supernate was added back to HTF-09-21-101 to achieve a percent insoluble solids concentration of 17.1 wt%, and a representative sample was collected for analysis. Based on duplicate analyses at 17.1 wt% and 19.0 wt% insoluble solids, the samples contain less than 0.0012 Ci/L of gross alpha activity. Therefore, the Tank 9H material can be transferred as a “LOW REM” transfer.

This Environmental Calculation File (ECF) documents analyses of hydraulic tests performed in the Ringold Formation member of Wooded Island unit A (Rwia) and Ringold Formation member of Wooded Island unit E (Rwie) in the 200 West Area. Two small-scale tests in the Rwia performed in 2012 and 2013 and one large-scale hydraulic test in the Rwie performed in 2009 were analyzed. Heterogeneity in the Rwie was also examined.
