2. NUMI NuMI Hot Handling Jim Hylen (FNAL) NBI02 March 13, 2002 Page 2 NuMI Target Hall Radioactive Component Handling Considerations Additional Design Specifications - Positioning mechanism (i.e. module) should be reusable - Main consideration is component change-out capability - Secondary consideration is for very limited repair capability (e.g., repairable water leak on a component with relatively low residual activation level) - Require a spent component storage area

NUMI NuMI Hot Handling Jim Hylen (FNAL) NBI02 March 13, 2002 Page 3 NuMI Target Hall Radioactive Component Handling Approach Considering Previous Criteria and Specifications - NuMI has decided to design the NuMI Target Hall based upon the AP0 Target Hall approach to positioning and handling beamline components - This technique has worked well for the past 16 years in terms of providing for beamline component servicing and change-out while controlling radiation exposure rates to target hall operations personnel
