1. Hanford Spent Nuclear Fuel and Cesium/Strontium Capsule Status Presented by Sen Moy - RL National SNF Meeting November 8, 2005

2. Dry Storage of N Reactor and Single-Pass Reactor Fuel Site-Wide Fuel Consolidation Fast Flux Test Facility Fuel Oregon State University Fuel Disposition of Cesium and Strontium Capsules Hanford Spent Nuclear Fuel Status

3. Removal of Canistered Fuel at K Basins Complete –Fuel loaded into 386 Multi-Canister Overpacks, dried, and transferred to Canister Storage Building for final closure weld and interim storage –Sludge and debris retrieval activities on-going at K Basins

4. Dry Storage of N Reactor and Single- Pass Reactor Fuel Up to 3 additional MCO(s) anticipated for fuel and scrap discovered during sludge removal, some found fuel –Fuel inventoried as unknown SPR, likely PRTR fuel –2+ SPR elements at B/C Reactor burial grounds –SPR elements/pieces and N Fuel element at KW Basin Welding (with N Stamp) completed for 397 MCOs (includes 18 containing Shippingport SNF) –No defects to date –7 MCOs in sampling/monitoring program will be welded in future; remaining 1-3 MCOs from K Basins will be welded at that time

5. Site-Wide Fuel Consolidation Deinventory of Fuel from Fast Flux Test Facility On-going –Loading of non-sodium bonded fuel into Interim Storage Casks ~90% complete; scheduled transfer of remaining fuel to 200 Area in March 2006 –Schedule transfer of sodium bonded fuel to INL beginning in FY2006; Modification of Certificate of Compliance for T-3 Cask on-going Oregon State University TRIGA Fuel Retrieval and Transfer to 200 Area Interim Storage Area scheduled to start April 2006.

6. Disposition of Cesium/Strontium Capsules Hanford baseline assumes direct disposal of capsules at Yucca Mountain beginning in 2018 1,936 cesium and strontium capsules currently in wet storage at Hanford Site –1335 capsules containing cesium chloride –601 capsules containing strontium fluoride –127 million curies in August 2003 YMP EIS include capsule inventory within Immobilized High Level Waste. Draft YMP License Application do not address capsule inventory.

8. Disposition of Cesium/Strontium Capsules Tri-Party Agreement milestone due June 2007 to assess viability of direct disposal and submit change request to establish enforceable milestones to achieve cesium and strontium disposition by 2028 Capsules are designated as RCRA regulated RL strategy is to pursue direct disposal to YMP and complete regulatory strategy to exempt/de-list hazardous constituents to allow disposal at YMP Complete performance assessment in FY 2006 to support viability assessment
