- Description
- As part of the ongoing effort to clean up the U.S. Department of Energy??s (DOE) Hanford site in Southeastern Washington State, the environmental restoration contractor (ERC) for the DOE, Bechtel Hanford, Inc., (BHI) is seeking qualified businesses to perform remedial action activities. The activities are associated with cleanup of waste sites in the 100-FR-1 and 100-FR-2 Operable Units in the 100-F Area. The work, regulated under CERCLA, is expected to commence in the summer of 2005, and require approximately 3.5 years to complete. The estimated subcontract value is $12-18M. The work involves excavation and removal of radiologically and/or chemically contaminated soils and debris. Work may be performed in radiation areas (including High Radiation Areas and Airborne Radiation Areas) and in various levels of PPE (including supplied air). This work scope is for the remedial actions for the 100-FR-1 and 100-FR-2 Operable Unit (OU) burial grounds 118-F-1, 118-F-2, 118-F-3, 118-F-5, 118-F-6, 118-F-7, 118-F-9, 100-F-20, as well as remaining sites 116-F-8, 116-F-15, 116-F-16, 128-F-3, and 120-F-1. There are two categories of waste sites included in this work scope: 100-F Burial Grounds and Remaining Sites. The remaining sites include five waste sites to be remediated (remove-treat-dispose [RTD]) and 13 optional remaining sites that may require remediation. The necessity of remediation has yet to be determined for these 13 sites. The remediation work scope for these 13 sites will be optional at the discretion of the CONTRACTOR. The status of these 13 sites is subject to change. 100 F Burial Grounds ?h 118-F-1 Solid Waste Burial Ground. The 118-F-1 site received radioactive equipment and other miscellaneous wastes from 105-F Reactor operations, including , but not limited to, the following: irradiated process tubing, dummy elements, gun barrel tips, steel sleeves, metal chips removed from the reactor, and filter boxes containing reactor graphite chips. ?h 118-F-2, Solid Waste Burial Ground. This site received wastes from the biology facilities and the 105-F Reactor. These wastes include, but are not limited to, miscellaneous solid wastes, and reactor components and hardware, such as dummy fuel elements. Several large cylindrical sleeves, or silos, were used for disposal of liquid waste from 108-F and animal carcasses. ?h 118-F-3, Burial Ground No. 3. This site received irradiated parts from the Ball 3X Project at the 105-F Reactor in 1952. The waste was primarily 38 to 61 vertical safety rod (VSR) thimbles and also step plugs. ?h 118-F-5, Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) Sawdust Pit. This site is an unlined trench that received radioactive sawdust from the floors of dog and swine pens in the 100-F Experimental Animal Farm (EAF). ?h 118-F-6, PNL Solid Waste Burial Ground. This site was used for the disposal of solid waste from the 100-F EAF. This site did not receive reactor-related waste. There are two large railroad tank cars, also called ??submarines.?? The tank cars were used for incineration of animal tissue and carcasses. The residual ash and carcasses were left in the tank after each incineration. This waste is not anticipated to pose any potential chemical hazard but may have a limited biological hazard. ?h 118-F-7, 100-F Miscellaneous Hardware Storage Vault. This site is an inactive solid waste storage vault used for temporary storage of slightly contaminated reactor parts. It is not certain whether the vault is empty or full of lead and cadmium. The vault is a concrete box that extends approximately 46 cm (18 in.) above grade. ?h 118-F-9, PNL Rad Site. The site received undocumented miscellaneous solid wastes from animal research studies at the EAF. Some odor may have developed from this waste. ?h 100-F-20, PNL Parallel Pits. The site consists of two earthen pits or trenches, both oriented northeast to southwest. The sites are believed to have been used to dispose of both radioactive and nonradioactive material from the EAF. The northern trench may contain nonradioactive animal farm wastes, including, but not limited to, hardware, lumber, and soft materials. The southern pit may have received radioactively contaminated animal feces and pen sweepings. Remaining Sites: Remove-Treat-Dispose ?h 116-F-8, 1904-F Outfall Structure. The unit consisted of a reinforced, compartmentalized concrete weir box with walls extending from 7.6 m (25 ft) below grade to 0.3 m (1 ft) above grade. The portion of the outfall that was above grade was demolished into its cavity. The entire structure was covered with clean dirt. The outfall site currently is an earthen mound. The two 1.1 m (42-in.) diameter steel pipelines that exit the outfall extending into the river are not part of the 116-F-8 outfall site. The onshore ends of the pipelines will require sealing with concrete under this scope of work. ?h 116-F-15, 108-F Radiation Crib. The site is located under the excavation of the 108-F Building (site 100-F-36). The unit is a 0.91 by 0.91 by 0.91-m (3-by 3-by 3-ft) concrete sump, near the center of the 108-F Radiobiology Laboratory Building first floor. ?h 116-F-16, PNL Outfall. The 116-F-16 site is where a large diameter pipeline met a concrete spillway that discharged waste water into the Columbia River. The spillway was a 4.6-m (15-ft)-wide concrete structure that extended approximately 6.1 m (20 ft) out from the shoreline and approximately 3.7 m (12 ft) into the Columbia River. The spillway sides were 0.46 m (18 in) high and extend down the length of the structure. The vertical walls of the upper portion have been demolished and covered with soil. The lower portion is intact and remains exposed. The upper portions of the site have been demolished and covered with soil. The lower portion of the flume is intact and visible. ?h 128-F-3, PNL Burn Pit. A site investigation only found ash at the site with the ash exceeding cleanup levels for metals. ?h 120-F-1, Glass Dump. The 120-F-1 Glass Dump is located southeast of the 105-F Reactor. It is a shallow excavation 3 m by 10.7 m by 1.2 m (10 ft by 35 ft by 4 ft) deep and was used for the disposal of glass and miscellaneous materials from the 100-F Area. Materials deposited in the trench generally include but are not limited to fluorescent light tubes, incandescent light bulbs, vacuum tubes, glass bottles, laboratory glassware, small batteries, plastic, styrofoam, and hand tools. Remaining Sites: Optional Sites (Sites that may or may not be remediated under this scope of work) ?h 100-F-31, 144-F Sanitary Sewer System. The 100-F-31 septic system contained a septic tank and drain field that was located within the experimental animal farm. Septic tank dimensions are 12 by 12 by 3 m (40 by 40 by 10 ft). Piping for the 100-F-31 septic system included a 7.6-cm (3-in.)-diameter by 34-m (110-ft)-pipeline that exited the south side of the septic tank. ?h 100-F-33, 146-F Aquatic Biology Fish Ponds. The 100-F-33 waste site also referred to as the 146-F Aquatic Biology Fishponds and the fish laboratory was designed to conduct tests on fish. It contained six matched pairs of small rearing pond/trough structures constructed of reinforced concrete. Ponds 1-12 were match pairs; each 3.4 m by 2.9 m (11 ft by 9.5 ft). Pond 13 was the largest with dimensions of 15.5 m by 1.8 m (51 ft by 6 ft). It also contained a circular pond 30 ft in diameter. ?h 126-F-2, 183-F Clearwells. The unit consists of covered, reinforced concrete basins, having a capacity of about 3.7E+07 liters (1E+07 gallons), separated in the center by a pump room. The concrete cover of the east clearwell has been demolished to permit dumping into the clearwell cavity. The pump room was reinforced concrete and largely below grade. The above-ground portion of the pump room has been demolished, and the below-ground portion has been filled with pump room rubble and backfill. The west clearwell remains intact including it??s steel reinforced concrete cover. The east clearwell basin contains demolition waste. At a minimum, removal of the demolition waste in the east clearwell is anticipated under this scope of work. ?h 128-F-2, 100-F Burning Pit. The burn pit received nonradioactive combustible materials including but not limited to paint waste, miscellaneous office debris, chemical solvents, construction debris, and vitrified clay pipe. Historical documentation suggests more than one pit is present at the site. Each pit may have dimensions of 30.5 m by 30.5 m by 3 m (100 ft by 100 ft by 10 ft) deep. Other documentation indicates that the burn pit is an 45.7 m by 18.3 m by 3 m (150 ft by 60 ft by 10 ft) deep irregularly shaped depression that received metal hardware and machinery. During Hanford Site operations in the late 1970s concrete pole foundations and other debris were removed and buried and the landscape leveled. ?h 132-F-1, 141-F Sheep Barn. The 132-F-1 sheep barn, also referred to as the Animal Barn, Chronic Feeding Barn, and the Exposure Laboratory, was part of the experimental animal farm that was completed in 1950. The facilities were designed to house stock animals that were exposed to radioelements of significance to operations at Hanford. The building was a 455 sq. m (4,900 sq. ft) concrete block facility with a concrete floor and concrete animal pens on the inside and outside. The sheep barn was demolished in 1977. ?h 141-C, Large Animal Barn & Biology Laboratory. A portion of the radiobiological experiments carried out at the 100-F EAF involved the use of large animals. The 141-C Building provided facilities for the long-term housing and care of these animals. The building was a single L-shaped structure with each wing measuring 35.4 m (116 ft) by 6.1 m (20 ft) wide by 2.4 m (8 ft) high and was demolished in approximately 1977. ?h 182-F, Reservoir. The above-grade portion of the facility has been demolished. The site is located on a relatively flat area north of 126-F-2 Clearwells. This site received demolition rubble from the 182-F Pumping Station and the 183-F Water Treatment Building and Sedimentation Basins, and debris from other building demolitions. At a minimum, removal of the demolition waste is anticipated under this scope of work. ?h 1607-F3, Septic Tank. The unit includes a septic tank, drainfield, and associated pipeline. It is constructed of reinforced concrete; the walls and floor are 25 centimeters (10 in) thick. The septic tank has a capacity of 5,432 liters (1,435 gallons). The drainfield is constructed of 10-centimeter (4-in) vitrified pipe, concrete pipe, or drain tile with a total of 100 linear meters (328 linear feet) of piping (2.4 linear meters [8 linear feet] per capita). The 20-centimeter (8-in) laterals are open jointed and spaced 2.4 m (8 ft) apart. ?h 1607-F5, Septic Tank. The site includes a septic tank, drainfield, and associated pipeline. The tank is constructed of reinforced concrete; the walls are 20 centimeters (8 in) thick, and the floor is 15 centimeters (6 in) thick. The septic tank has a capacity of 795 liters (210 gallons). The drainfield is constructed of 10-centimeter (4-in) vitrified pipe, concrete pipe, or drain tile with a total of 14.6 linear meters (48 linear feet) of piping (2.4 linear meters [8 linear feet] per capita). The laterals are open jointed and spaced 2.4 m (8 ft) apart. ?h 1607-F7, 141-M Building Septic Tank. The site is a septic tank, tile field, and a pipeline. The septic tank has a volume of 3,800 liters (1,000 gallons). ?h 100-F-36, 108-F Chemical Pump House. The site includes remaining portions of the building foundation primarily at the southeast and southwest corners of the former building. The former 108-F building originally was used as a chemical makeup facility in support of the 105-F Reactor. ?h 100-F-38, Yellow Stained soil near hydrant F-2. This site includes yellow stained soil discovered in 2000 during utility trenching activities. The source of yellow staining is not known. Radiological screening during the trenching activity did not indicate the presence of radiological contamination. ?h 100-F-26, 100-F Water Treatment Facility Underground Pipelines. This site includes all of the upstream (pre-reactor) process sewers for the 100-F Area, including all underground water lines used to transport reactor cooling water between the water treatment facilities and the 105-F Reactor building. These include potentially contaminated underground lines running between buildings and those that run to drainage facilities. The 100-F-26 pipelines site includes the underground pipelines from the 181-F river pumphouse to the 182-F reservoir, the 183-F basins and clearwells, the 184-F powerhouse, the 190-F buildings, 108-F biology laboratory, and to the 105-F reactor building. Also, the drainage lines from the water treatment buildings to the junction with the 100-F-19 effluent pipeline at the animal farm are included in the 100-F-26 pipelines site.
