RE:2024 Engineering Inspection Module 8 – Containerized Waste Facility (CWF) Radioactive Material License UT2300249: Closeout
Dear Mr. Rogers:
An engineering inspection was conducted at the EnergySolutions (ES) Clive facility on July 18, 2024, and August 22, 2024, by the Utah Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control
(WMRC).
The inspection period went from July 2023 to July 2024. The inspection specifically reviewed the 2016 approved CWF Tier 1 area. The CWF inspection included but not limited to a review
of the license, license amendments, test pad documents, interrogatories, current and past CQA/QC revisions, CWF field inspection, daily log inspections, past and current engineering
reviews, and EnergySolutions staff interviews. In addition, EnergySolutions has established some good spreadsheets and drawings to help track waste generator placement date and time.
This annual inspection specifically looked at back fill sand placement methods in the CWF.
There were no notable deficiencies during the site CWF inspection. Day Active Waste (DAW) and large amounts of cardboard tubing from geotextile placement was noted during the inspection.
Future follow up inspections will check DAW and cardboard waste placement. This letter is a closeout of the various items that were inspected in 2024.
If you have any questions, please call David Esser at 385-622-1877.
Sincerely,
Douglas J. Hansen, Director
Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control
