AAR Western Parcel Strategic Waste Excavation. Soils Management and Site Restoration RWP
1.0 BACKGROUND STATEMENT
The 12633 Inkster Road, Livonia, MI property, which is the subject of this Remedial Work Plan (RWP),was formerly owned by Brooks and Perkins, Inc., who conducted licensed activities involving radioactivethorium materials under Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) source materials license No. STB-0362.Brooks and Perkins terminated their license on 17 May 1981.AAR Corporation subsequently purchasedthe assets of the former Brooks and Perkins, including the property located at 12633 Inkster Road.
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), under contract with the United States Nuclear RegulatoryCommission (USNRC), conducted a site investigation which discovered levels of thorium-contaminatedsurface and sub-surface soils that exceeded USNRC release criteria. Said discovery caused the property tobe added to the Site Decommissioning Management Plan list in August 1994.
Since 1996, AAR Corporation has maintained a proactive approach in negotiations with the NRCregarding remediation of the site. In November 2002, AAR submitted to the USNRC a plan calling for theunrestricted release and use of the eastern portion of the property and for restricted use of the westernportion to include a restrictive covenant. Subsequently, the property was legally divided into the EasternParcel and the Western Parcel, 12633 Inkster road, Livonia, Mi.
In 2006 AAR Corporation enlisted Partners Environmental consulting to prepare and submit to theUSNRC a Revised Dose Assessment and Work Plan. Said document was dated 7 August 2006. ARemedial Work Plan, authored by EnergySolutions, was submitted for review on 14 November 2006.
In a letter dated 27 October 2006 the NRC determined that the revised probabilistic dose analysis for thesite demonstrated that, contingent upon implementation of the Remedial Work Plan of August 2006, theEastern Parcel of the site would meet the dose criteria for unrestricted use, per the License TerminationRule (LTR) (10 CFR Part 20, Subpart E). The Western Parcel was deemed to meet the dose criteria forrestricted release.
Site remediation activities began in November 2006. A total of six (6) 100m 2 grids of soil in an open landarea were excavated to a depth of one (1) meter, loaded out, transported and disposed. Two (2) of theIOOm 2 grids were within the Eastern Parcel and four (4) of the IOOm 2 grids were within the areadesignated as the Western Parcel. Excavation cavities were backfilled with clean imported soils. Thisremedial action was successfully carried out, as evidenced in the Final Site Remediation Report authoredby Partners Environmental in April 2007.
In September 2010, the NRC and its consultant performed a radiological survey of the CSXT parcel thatruns parallel and contiguous to the southern boundary of the AAR Corporation property. In June 2011 theNRC released its Technical Evaluation Report regarding the radiological status of the contiguous CSXTright-of-way. NRC staff concluded that the CSXT property meets the criteria for unrestricted use and thatthis parcel requires no additional soil remediation or cleanup.
It is anticipated that use of the site will remain consistent with its current use and that of the neighboringproperties (commercial, light industrial, warehousing, trucking).

AAR Western Parcel Strateeic Waste Excavation and Site Restoration RWP
2.0 PRIMARY AND SECONDARY PROJECT OBJECTIVES
2.1 PRIMARY OBJECTIVE
The primary objective for the AAR Western Parcel Strategic Waste Excavation and Site Restorationproject is to obtain unrestricted release of the Western Parcel of the property located at 12633 InksterRoad, Livonia, MI.
2.2 SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
A. Strategic Waste Excavation
Excavation of soils will be limited to those lOOm 3 grids identified by the USNRC and Owner'sConsultant.
B. Soils Management
I. When practicable, site soils will be excavated and direct loaded into Michigan Gravel Traintractor-trailers for transportation to the designated off-site disposal facility.
2. When necessary, site soils within any one grid (or series of grids) will be intentionally mixed inorder to achieve the project-specific Waste Acceptance Criteria.
C. Site Restoration
Following excavation of any one 100m 3 grid or series of contiguous lOOm 3 grids, the excavation willbe backfilled using clean soil-like imported material. Excavations will be brought to existing surround-ing grade and machine-compacted. Clean soil-like materials will be obtained from suppliers who willdocument, through appropriate analysis, that the material is clean and that it is free, of hazardousmaterials or constituents.

AAR Western Parcel Strategic Waste Excavation and Site Restoration RWP
3.0 REGULATORY GUIDELINES/RELEASE CRITERIA
3.1 REVISED PROBABALISTIC DOSE ANALYSIS
In accordance with the Probabilistic Dose Analysis, an unspecified volume of soil from thirty two (32)100m 3 grids referenced in Section 3.2 below will be excavated, and the excavated soils and debris will bedis-posed off site. Once the soil is removed and the excavations filled with clean soil, the site is deemedacceptable for unrestricted use in accordance with the Revised Probabilistic Dose Analysis.
3.2 BASIS FOR UNRESTRICTED RELEASE
The License Termination rule (LTR), 10 CFR 20, Subpart E, states that a site will be consideredacceptable for unrestricted release and use if the residual radioactivity that is distinguishable fromback-ground radiation results in a TEDE to an average member of the critical group that does notexceed twenty-five mrem (0.25mSv) per year, including that from groundwater sources of drinkingwater, and the residual radioactivity that has been reduced to levels that are As Low As ReasonablyAchievable (ALARA).
In a letter dated 27 October 2006, the NRC stated that the radiological analysis submitted by AARdemonstrates that it fulfilled the dose requirement of the LTR for unrestricted release of the easternparcel of the site, contingent upon the completion of remedial action. Remedial activities were com-pleted in January of 2007 and a final report submitted to the NRC in April of 2007.
The radiological analysis previously submitted and approved by the NRC was used to evaluate whatfurther soli removal from the western and eastern parcels would be required to reduce the radiation dose,consistent with the LTR for unrestricted use of the entire site. The probabilistic dose assessment yielded adose source ration (DSR) for the resident farmer scenario of 2.4mrem/yr per !Ci/g, assuming a 10,000m
2
surfacal zone of contamination to a depth of 2m below grade. A 10,000m zone of contamination wasused because it is the value recommended by the NRC for the AAR dose assessment. Based on thecalculated DSR, the average thorium concentration in the site soils must be < 10pCi/g to meet the limitestablished in LTR for unrestricted release.
Excavating the soil from the 32 grids identified herein and replacing it with certified clean material resultsin an average concentration, in the top one meter (1m) of soil within the western most 10,0000m 2 area ofthe site (155W to 60W) of 6 pCi/g. the specific grids recommended for soils removal are as follows (seeFigure 3a, Site characterization Report, Phase II of B. Koh 1999 for grid locations):
36 98 125 188 266 37037 99 126 189 283 37574 101 156 216 28475 122 157 217 31576 123 158 247 36894 124 187 265 369
-
Table 3.1, shows the grids to be removed and the resulting average thorium concentration after grid removal..
3.3 EXCAVATION DEPTH
No excavation is required to a depth exceeding one meter (1m) provided the average thoriumconcentration in the 1-2 meter layer does not cause the resulting dose to exceed the LTR limit forunrestricted release. At the time of maximum dose for the 0-1 meter strata, the Dose Source Ratios are asfollows: DSR (0-1 m) = 2.4 mrem/yr per pCi/g and DSR (1-2 m) = 0.13 mrem/yr per pCi/g. Therefore, atthis time, the average concentration in the 0-1 meter strata of 6 pCi/g would equate to a dose rate of 14.4mrem/yr, and the average concentration in the 1-2 meter strata could not exceed 82 pCi/g for the totaldose rate not to exceed the 25 mrem/yr criteria.
However, at the time of maximum dose for the 1-2 meter strata (which occurs several hundred years later)the DSR are as follows: DSR (0-1m) = 1.2 mrem/yr per pCi/g and DSR (1-2m) = 0.65 mrem/yr per pCi/g.therefore, at the time in question, the average concentration in the 0-1 meter strata of 6 pCi/g wouldequate to a dose rate of 7.2 mrem/yr and the average concentration in the 1-2 meter strata could notexceed 27 pCi/g for the total dose rate not to exceed the 25 mrem/yr criteria.
3.4 REAL-TIME CONFIRMATORY SAMPLING
After excavating soil to a depth of one meter, the average concentration in the 1-2 meter level will beverified by removing and analyzing soil samples. Four samples will be removed from each 100 squaremeter grid as described in Site Characterization Report, Phase II, Former Brooks and Perkins, Site, Inc.,Revision 0, August 1999, prepared by B.Koh and Associates. The concentration of the four grid sampleswill be added to the existing data for the 1-2 meter layer and a new layer average calculated. The existingdata for the 1-2 meter layer is presented in the attached spreadsheet, Table 3.4.
If the average thorium concentration of an exposed grid in the 1-2 meter layer causes the averageconcentration in the entire 1-2 meter layer to exceed 25 pCi/g, AAR will remove the exposed grid to anappropriate depth and replace it with clean soil.

AAR Western Parcel Strategic Waste Excavation and Site Restoration RWP
4.0 WESTERN PARCEL SITE FEATURES
Prior to removal of overburden, the Western Parcel will be surveyed to establish the perimeter bounda-ries of the previously-designated plat of I n X IOim grids/quadrants that comprise the Western Parcelwork zone/zone of contamination.
4.1 ACCUMULATED SURFACE DEBRIS
The Western -Parcel is encumbered with randomly placed accumulations of debris, including scrap tires,piles of broken concrete, scrap metal, cinder block, wooden structural members, concrete structural mem-bers, concrete foundations, and broken asphalt.
Accumulated surface debris falls outside the scope of this project specific to the disposition of thorium-contaminated waste. As such, accumulated surface debris will be consolidated into a twenty-five (25)cubic yard roll-off box and transported to a Construction and Demolition Debris (C&DD) landfill in closeproximity to the lnkster Road property.
4.2 TREES AND SCRUB BRUSH
The Western Parcel is bordered by numerous immature deciduous trees and thickets of scrub brush, someof which are within the boundaries of the proposed soils excavation footprint. Equipment will be utilizedto remove the trees and scrub brush, leaving the lower 18" and root balls of said vegetation in place.
The tree limbs and scrub brush exceeding 18" above grade fall outside the scope of this project specific tothe disposition of thorium-contaminated waste. As such, they will remain piled on-site or will be size-reduced and sent to a yard waste recycler at a later date.
4.3 SURFACE VEGETATION
Heavy equipment will be utilized to surface grade the Western Parcel and to place vegetation outside andcontiguous to its northern boundary. As such, surface vegetation will remain piled on-site or will be sentto a yard waste recycler at a later date.
The resultant cleared open land area will be surveyed and pinned corresponding to the lOim X lOm grids/quadrants established on the Western Parcel plat.

5.0 Environmental Overview
5.1 Endangered Species
A survey of endangered and/or protected species of plants and animals in Wayne County, MI resulted inthe following:
SPECIES
Indiana Bat
STATUS HABITAT
Endangered Summer habitat includes small to medium river andstream corridors with well-developed riparian woods;woodlots within 1-3 miles of small to medium riversand streams; and upland forests. Caves and mines ashibernacula
Eastern Massasauga
Northern Riffleshell
Rayed Bean Mussel
Eastern Prarie Orchid
Candidate
Endangered
Endangered
Threatened
Shallow wetlands and adjacent uplands
Large streams and small rivers in firm sand or riffleareas; also occurs in Lake Erie
Smaller headwater creeks, but sometimes found inlarge rivers
Mesic to wet prairies and meadows
Solutient referenced Section 7 of the USFWS Region III Endangered Species Act, followed by conver-sations with representatives of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) who confirmed theabsence of endangered species of plants and animals on or in close proximity to the 12633 Inkster Roadproperty or in that geography defined by USFWS as an "action area".
Additionally, said conversations confirmed the absence of the habitat that could support those species ofendangered plants and animals indigenous to Wayne County, MI. Said inquiry took into account thefuture physical, chemical and biotic impacts to the environment of the actions to be undertaken by thisproject.
5.2 Contiguous Properties
To the North of the 12633 Inkster Road property are numerous light industrial and warehousing facilitieswhose normal working hours will correspond to the proposed work day for this project, and whoseemployees work indoors. Noise levels produced by operating equipment should have a negligible impacton these facilities and their employees. Should trucking operations create airborne particulate with thepotential to carry onto contiguous properties to the North, steps will be taken to dampen the truckingroute, thus eliminating airborne particulate. Airborne radiological particulate will be monitored
-
throughout the project's duration. A drainage ditch provides a natural barrier and a fenceline provides aconstructed barrier on the northern boundary of the "action area".
To the East of the 12633 Inkster Road property is Inkster Road and light industrial and warehousingfacilities whose normal working hours will correspond to the proposed work day for this project. Weanticipate the same impacts as are associated with the properties to the North, with the addition of thepossibility of material tracking from the haul truck tires onto the roadway. Care will be taken to monitorfor and remove this material as necessary. The additional vehicle traffic created by this project will have anegligible impact on noise or congestion on Inkster Road. The physical plant provides a constructedbarrier on the eastern boundary of the "action area".
To the South of the 12633 Inkster Road property is the CSX railway and a Wayne County RoadMaintenance yard. Heavy equipment is utilized by county workers at this location. Thus, the additionalnoise created by our equipment operation should have negligible impact on this facility and its workers.With prevailing winds from the southwest, we do not anticipate the airborne migration of particulate on tothese properties. A drainage ditch provides a natural barrier and the CSX railway provides a constructedbarrier on the southern boundary of the "action area".
To the West of the 12633 Inkster Road property is a transportation company trailer staging lot with verylittle activity. A stand of trees will remain between the project work zone and the contiguous property;thus, coupled with prevailing winds from the southwest, we anticipate negligible impact on this facilityand its employees. A change in elevation and tree line form a natural barrier and a fenceline provides aconstructed barrier on the western boundary of the "action area".
5.3 Offsite Migration of Liquids, Solids and Airborne Particulate
Following clearing and grubbing, silt fence will be installed along the perimeter of the Western Parcel andalong that portion of the Eastern Parcel used for stockpiling of imported fill materials and trucking routesassociated therewith. Once the excavation zone along the driveway and contiguous to the electricalsubstation is firmly established, silt fence will be installed along the perimeter of the planned excavation.
HI-Q RAS pumps will be installed to the north and east of the "action area" to monitor for airborneparticulate. Should excessive levels of airborne particulate be detected, Solutient will institute theappropriate engineering controls to reduce said levels.
5.4 Accumulation of Water in Excavations
Of major concern is the potential accumulation of entrained perched/groundwater and the possibility ofweather events that would cause accumulation of rain water in open excavations.'

6.0 ALARA ANALYSIS FORMER BROOKS & PERKINS SITE
6.1 WESTERN PARCEL
The probabilistic dose assessment demonstrated that after remediation the radiological conditionsof the Western and Eastern Parcels exceed the requirements for unrestricted release. Furtherdose reduction can only be achieved by removing additional contaminated soils and disposing ofthem at a licensed facility. Draft NUREG 1757, Volume 2, Consolidated NMSSDecommissioning Guidance, Section N. 1.5, indicates that when soil removal is required, it isunlikely to be cost effective for unrestricted release and mathematical analyses are not necessary.Nevertheless, AAR undertook such an analysis and confirmed that proposed soil removal isalready ALARA; demonstrating that no further remediation is necessary.
The remedial area (Grid 155W to Grid 60W) was chosen for the ALARA analysis. The averageconcentration of total thorium, after remediation is 6 pCi/g. The dose/source ratio at the peakmean dose is 2.4. This dose source ratio was used to calculate the thorium concentration(DCGLw) that would equate to a dose of 25 mrem/year for unrestricted release. The resultingDCGLw is 10 pCi/g total thorium.
The following formula (N-8) from Appendix N, of Draft NUREG 1757, Volume 2, was used forthe ALARA analysis:
Conc. CostT r+ A
DCGL $2000xPD xO .025xFxA 1-e-""N
Conc. = concentration at which the benefit from removal equals the cost of removalDCGLw = derived concentration guideline equivalent to the average concentration of residual
radioactivity that would give a dose of 25 mrem/yearCOStT = total cost of removal (includes removal, transport, and burial only for this analysis)*$2000 = acceptable value for collective dose per NUREG/BR-0058, revision 2, November 1995.PD = population density, 0.0004/M2 for land (generic value from Table N-2 of Appendix N)0.025 = annual dose to an average member of the critical group at the DCGLw in reins/yearF = fraction of residual radioactivity removed by the actionA = area being evaluated in m2
X = the radioactive decay constant for thoriumr = monetary discount rate, 0.03 for soil from Table N-2 of Appendix N
-
A COStT of $140,000 was used in the calculation. It represents the cost for the removal ($35,000),transport and disposal ($105,000) of 500 m 3 of soil (i.e., remediation of the five 100 m 2 grids, toa depth of one meter, that AAR will remove in excess of the 27 grids required to achieve theDCGLw). This soil removal results in an average thorium concentration of 6 pCi/g for remedi-ation area which is a decrease of 4 pCi/g giving a value of F of 0.4. The area being evaluated, A,is 10,000 in 2 . Because thorium has a very long half-life radioactive decay was ignored over the1000 year assessment period (Lambda = 0 and N= 1000).
Using these values in the above equation, the concentration at which the benefit of further soilremoval is equal to the cost is more than 50 times higher than the DCGLw, i.e., the ALARAanalysis demonstrates that the costs of soil removal, already proposed by AAR far outweigh thebenefits. Therefore, the residual levels are ALARA.
NRC guidance on ALARA, in NUREG-1757, Vol 2, Section 6, and Appendix N, indicates thatALARA for decommissioning should include typical good practice efforts, such as removal ofreadily removable radioactivity in soils. Numerous reports by AAR characterized thecontamination as slag and incinerator ash mixed within a soil matrix. The slag, which is similarto crushed stone, and the ash are not readily removable from the soil. No large chunks of slagwere identified in the site characterization nor encountered during the previous soils removal atthe site. The characterization of the contaminant was confirmed by the NRC during various sitevisits and by the NRC's contractor, Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE).

AAR Western Parcel Strategic Waste Excavation and Site Restoration RWP
9.0 SITE PREPARATION
The Western Parcel open land area at the 12633 Inkster Road property is encumbered by immature trees,scrub brush, surface vegetation and randomly-placed piles of cinder block, wood, asphalt, concrete, scrapmetal and scrap tires, as examples. Site soils characteristically retain high moisture, with the southwestquadrant of the Western Parcel especially susceptible. We anticipate encountering perched water in thissouthwest quadrant during soils excavation activities. Surface soils in the remainder of the open land areaare spongy and damp.
Site preparation activities, listed chronologically, will consist of the following:
9.1 Establishing work ZonesInstallation of barrier fence and establishment of exclusion zone, transition zone, equipment stagingarea, site soils and backfill material stockpile areas.
9.2 Initial SurveyAn initial survey will be performed from 100W to 155W and from 75S to 35N to establish the outerlimits of the Western Parcel excavation zone. Perimeter limits will be surveyed, staked and labeled bya licensed land surveyor, Milletics and Associates, Plymouth, MI, who performed these services prep-aratory to remedial activities conducted in November 2006.
9.3 Clearing and GrubbingAll items of non-impacted debris that are discovered during a walk-over of the Western Parcel will beremoved and consolidated into 25 cuyd roll-off boxes and subsequently disposed of as C&DD at alocal licensed landfill.
Immature trees, scrub brush and vegetative cover will be moved via bulldozer to the outer limits of theWestern Parcel to allow for a detailed survey of the resultant open land area.
9.4 Detailed SurveyMilletics and Associates will re-establish the 1 Om X 1 Om incremental grids corresponding to the gridlayout that has been used historically at the site during site characterization and delineation and duringpreviously-conducted remedial activities. Corners will be pinned and labeled.
Solutient and Owner's Representative will perform a walkover to ensure the accuracy of the surveyand the grid numbering when compared to existing site remediation documents
9.5 Haul Road ConstructionImported 1 &3 backfill material will be used to construct those access ways necessary to position haultrucks during direct load-out of excavated soil and to facilitate site truck tramming of excavated soilsto the site soils stockpile areas. Haul road construction will be limited to those surface areas that arenot subject to excavation and those surface areas that have been excavated and backfilled to grade fol-lowing excavation. Non-impacted road construction materials will eventually be used as backfillmaterial in subsequent excavations.

10.0 WESTERN PARCEL GRID EXCAVATIONS
10.1 ENCOUNTERED MATERIALS
Based on data supplied by Owner's Consultant, a minimum of thirty-two (32) grids will be excavated to adepth of one (1) meter below existing grade. Based on narratives regarding previous remedial activitiescontiguous to the Western Parcel and upon having obtained a limited number of hand auger samples inthe Western Parcel to a depth of 18", we anticipate encountering native soils, soils impacted with brickbats and residual concrete, incineration slag resembling crushed stone and granular incinerator ash thatwas deposited in this area by Brooks and Perkins historically.
Random piles of debris such as scrap tires, scrap metal, blocks of concrete, cinder block, crushed con-crete, wooden structures, are considered to be outside the scope of the RWP and will be surveyed, re-moved, loaded into roll-off boxes and transported off-site for disposal as Construction and DemolitionDebris (C&DD).
Trees, scrub brush, vegetative cover and root balls associated therewith are considered to be outside thescope of the RWP and will be consolidated on-site in an area(s) outside the perimeter of the open landarea that is subject to remedial activities.
10.2 ANTICIPATED VOLUMES
For purposes of this RWP, - 3 1OOm 3 of soils will be excavated within the Western Parcel. This equatesto 4,030yd3. We anticipate an average soils density of- 1.29T per yd 3. Thus, we anticipate a volume of
5,200T of material originating from the Western Parcel. The cost for disposal will be based on a "perton" rate, with weights and measures as determined at the intended disposal facility.
10.3 EQUIPMENT UTILIZATION
Solutient plans to utilize one (1) bulldozer with operator to perform clearing of immature trees and scrubbrush and to clear the excavation zone of surface humus. In doing so, the excavation zone is more easilyand accurately surveyed in order to re-establish the lOOm- grids upon which the excavation plan is based.
One trackhoe excavator with operator will work at the direction of the Solutient Project Manager to, whenpracticable, either (a) excavate and direct-load those soils that, in place, meet the disposal facility WACor (b) concurrently excavate and mix "low level with high level soils" that, when sampled, representhomogenous material meeting the disposal facility WAC. This material will be direct-loaded intoMichigan Gravel Trucks, each having a capacity of thirty-seven (37) cubic yards of material, andtransported to EQ's Belleville, MI facility for landfill disposal.
One trackhoe with operator and one off-road haul truck will work at the direction of the Solutient ProjectManager to, when practicable, excavate and tram soils of low total Thorium concentration and those soilsexceeding
-
the WAC for on-site segregation and stockpiling. This procedure will result in soil stockpiles that,through soils mixing and real time sampling/ analysis, will cause the material to meet the landfill WAC.Mixed soils meeting the WAC will be loaded into Michigan Gravel Trucks for transportation to EQ'sBelleville, MI facility for landfill disposal.
10.4 ON-SITE STAGING OF SEGREGATED MATERIALS
Soils from each of the stockpiles will be formulated and loaded into the Michigan Gravel Trucks. Theloaded material will be sampled/analyzed on-site to ensure that the formulated load meets the disposalfacility WAC.
Radiation technicians trained and competent in the use of Gamma Spectroscopy, in the use of scaler/ ratemeters with sodium iodide counters, and in the use of 44-9 GM Detectors will support the process of soilsexcavation, soils segregation, surveying of trucks and equipment, and off-site transportation for disposal.
Appropriate site security, material handling and erosion control measures will be implemented to preventunauthorized access to the site and to prevent the intentional or inadvertent spread or release of contami-nation outside the control area(s).
Traditional values as published in NRC Regulatory guide 1.86 will dictate the release limits for personneland equipment.

Upon verified completion of excavation of any one grid or contiguous grids, backfilling of the excavationcavity will occur within a reasonable time frame so as to avoid the potential entrainment of snow/ waterand the adverse impact such weather events might have on site activities.
