Title
Standard Guide for Evaluating Disposal Options for Concrete from Nuclear Facility Decommissioning
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jun 10, 2002
Scope:
This standard guide defines the process for developing a strategy for
dispositioning concrete from
nuclear facility decommissioning. It outlines a 10-step method to
evaluate disposal options for
radioactively contaminated concrete. One of the steps is to complete a
detailed analysis of the
cost and dose to nonradiation workers (the public); the methodology
and supporting data to perform
this analysis are detailed in the appendices. The resulting data can
be used to balance dose and
cost and select the best disposal option. These data, which establish
a technical basis to apply to
release the concrete, can be used in several ways: (1) to show that
the release meets existing
release criteria, (2) to establish a basis to request release of the
concrete on a case-by-case
basis, (3) to develop a basis for establishing release criteria where
none exists.
This standard guide is based on the "Protocol for Development of
Authorized Release Limits for
Concrete at U.S. Department of Energy Sites," (Arnish, J. et.al.,
2000) from which the analysis
methodology and supporting data are taken.
Guide E 1760 provides a general process for release of materials
containing residual amounts of
radioactivity. In addition, Guide E 1278 provides a general process
for analyzing radioactive
pathways. This standard guide is intended for use in conjunction with
Guides E 1760 and E 1278, and
provides a more detailed approach for the release of concrete.
