UCOR Scope of Work on the Oak
Ridge Reservation
2
UCOR Scope of Work
• Perform D&D and remediation activities across the Oak Ridge
Reservation (ORR)
• Manage the ORR Landfill and the Environmental Management
Waste Management Facility (EMWMF)
• Manage the Water Resource Recovery Program (WRRP)
• Manage the Liquid Gaseous Waste Operations (LGWO) facility
• Perform Environmental Compliance Monitoring
• Waste management and disposition
• Design of the Mercury Treatment Facility at Y-12
• Construct new DOE Environmental Management Disposal Facility
(EMDF)

D&D Activities at ETTP
•
Current ETTP D&D Activities
– K-27 (Entire Facility)
– Poplar Creek Facilities
– Multiple small facilities
•
Planned Activities
– Centrifuge Facilities
– Central Neutralization
Facility
– Toxic Substances Control
Act (TSCA) Incinerator
– Balance of Facilities
4
D&D Sampling and Analysis
• Analytical support for characterization of facility
contents and construction debris
• K-25 slab and K-31 characterizations were
completed in FY15
• K-27 characterization is largely complete and
transite removal has begun
• Poplar Creek High Risk Facility work has begun
• Other facilities are being shifted to UCOR scope as
current projects are completed
• 8000 analyses performed in FY15
• Total cost for analytical services ~$850K
Landfill Operations
•
Environmental Management
Waste Management Facility
(EMWMF)
–
–
•
CERCLA waste associated with
the ORR
Must meet WAC requirements
Oak Ridge Reservation
(ORR) Landfill – (formerly
the Y-12 Sanitary Landfill)
–
Disposal of sanitary, industrial,
construction, and demolition
waste

EMWMF and ORR Landfill
Sampling and Analysis
• Sample Locations
–
–
–
–
Monitoring wells
Contact Water
Leachate
Air Sampling
• Number of analyses per year is relatively constant
– Weekly, Quarterly, Semi-annual, Rainfall event driven (EMWMF)
– Dynamic analytical suite for the EMWMF
• 6800 analyses performed in FY15
• Total cost for analytical services $1M
Water Quality and Environmental Compliance

Water Quality and Environmental
Compliance Sampling and Analysis
• Samples
–
–
–
–
–
Groundwater
Surface Water
Outfalls
Runoff
Air Monitoring
• Annual sampling for Water Quality is relatively
constant
• Environmental Compliance varies some, but
overall is constant
• 15,000 analyses performed in FY15
• Total cost for analytical services $1.1M
9
Waste Management and Disposition
• UCOR has taken a proactive
approach –characterize and
ship as soon as practical
• The majority of legacy waste
has been dispositioned
• 600 analyses performed on
waste materials in FY15
• Total cost for analytical
services $60K
10
Site Remediation
• Expected increase in soil samples from the ETTP site
• Characterization is associated with land transfers and
footprint reduction
• Will require very low reporting levels in some cases
depending on final disposition of parcel
• FY14 ~$10K spent on remediation
• FY15 ~$55K spent on remediation
• FY16 projected to double
11
Bioassay and Industrial Hygiene
• Bioassay Program
– 600 analyses
– $60K
– FY 2016 is expected to remain constant
• Industrial Hygiene Program
– 3500 analyses
– $250K
– Expected to remain relatively constant through 2016

Analytical Support Summary
• Analytical laboratories performed over 39,000 analyses in support of
UCOR projects in FY 2015.
• The total cost for analytical services in FY 2015 was ~$3.7M
• FY 2016 analytical support is expected to remain largely unchanged
– New D&D characterization projects are expected to be added to the current
scope as K-27 and Poplar Creek facilities near completion
– Landfill, Water Quality, and Environmental Compliance Program needs are
expected to remain constant
– Analytical needs for waste characterization associated with the Waste
Disposition Program are expected to decrease an additional 15-20%
– Bioassay requirements are expected to stabilize at FY15 levels
– Industrial Hygiene sampling is expected to remain constant
