Calculations and Analyses to Support K West Basin Canister Cleaning System Project A-2A

Description

Approximately 2,300 metric tons of Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) are currently stored within two water filled pools, the 105 K East (KE) fuel storage basin and the 105 K West (KW) fuel storage basin at the US. Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office. The SNF Project is responsible for operation of the K Basins and for the materials within them. A subproject to the SNF Project is the Debris Removal Subproject, which is responsible for removal of empty canisters and lids form the basins. This revised document reviews calculations, originally prepared by COGEMA Engineering, for changes due to relocation of the Canister Cleaning System (CCS) from the Dummy Elevator Pit to the Tech View Pit Area and the elimination of the High Pressure Cleaning System
