of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (hereinafter called The Act).
B. Definitions.
The definitions set out in the Act shall apply to this clause.
C. Financial Protection.
Except as hereafter permitted or required in writing by the DOE or WHC, the
subcontractor will not be required to provide or maintain, and will not
provide or maintain at government expense, any form of financial protection
to cover public liability, as described in paragraph D.2 below.
Westinghouse Hanford Company or the DOE may, however, at any time require
in writing that the subcontractor provide and maintain financial protection
of such a type and in such amount as WHC or the DOE shall determine to be
appropriate to cover such public liability, provided that the costs of such
financial protection are reimbursed to the subcontractor by WHC or DOE.
D. Indemnification.
1. To the extent that the subcontractor and other persons indemnified are
not compensated by any financial protection permitted or required by
WHC or the DOE, the DOE will indemnify the subcontractor and other
persons indemnified against (1) claims for public liability as
described in paragraph D.2 of this clause; and (2) such legal costs of
the subcontractor and other persons indemnified as are approved by
DOE, provided that DOE's liability, including such legal costs, shall
not exceed the amount set forth in section 170E(1)(B) of The Act in
the aggregate for each nuclear incident or precautionary evacuation
occurring within the United States or $100 million in the aggregate
for each nuclear incident occurring outside the United States,
irrespective of the number of persons indemnified in connection with
this contract.
2. The public liability referred to in subparagraph D.1 of this clause is
public liability as defined in The Act which (1) arises out of or in
connection with the activities under this contract, including
transportation; and (2) arises out of or results from a nuclear
incident or precautionary evacuation, as those terms are defined in
the Act.
E. Waiver of Defenses.

limitations, if suit is instituted within three (3)
years from the date on which the claimant first knew,
or reasonably could have known, of his injury or change
and the cause thereof. The waiver of any such issue or
defense shall be effective regardless of whether such
issue or defense may otherwise be deemed jurisdictional
or relating to an element in the cause of action. The
waiver shall be judicially enforceable in accordance
with its terms by the claimant against the person
indemnified.
<PAGE>
8
E. The term "Extraordinary Nuclear Occurrence" means an event
which the DOE has determined to be an extraordinary nuclear
occurrence as defined in the Act. A determination of whether

D. Shall not apply to any claim resulting from a nuclear incident
occurring outside the United States;
E. Shall be effective only with respect to those obligations set
forth in this clause and in insurance policies, contracts, or

such action or claim is undertaken by DOE, the subcontractor or other
person indemnified shall furnish all reasonable assistance in
effecting a settlement or asserting a defense.

any failure on the part of the subcontractor to fulfill its obligation
under this contract and shall be unaffected by the death, disability,
or termination of existence of the subcontractor, or by the
completion, termination, or expiration of this contract.
H. Effect of Other Clauses.
The provisions of this clause shall not be limited in any way by, and
shall be interpreted without reference to, any other clause of the
contract, including the clause entitled Contract Disputes, provided,

Covenant Against Contingent Fees, Officials not to Benefit, and
Examination of Records by the Comptroller General, and any provisions
that are later added to this contract as required by applicable
Federal law, including statutes, executive orders, and regulations, to
be included in nuclear hazards indemnity agreements.
I. Civil Penalties.

Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and applicable DOE nuclear safety-
related rules, regulations or, orders which violation results in, or,
if undetected, would have resulted in a Nuclear Incident.
K. Inclusion in Subcontracts.
The subcontractor shall insert this clause in any subcontract which
may involve the risk of public liability, as that term is defined in
the Act and further described in paragraph D.2 above. However, this
clause shall not be included in subcontracts in which the
subcontractor is subject to Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
financial protection requirements under section 170B. of The Act or
NRC agreements of indemnification under section 170C. or K. of the Act
for the activities under the subcontract.

lower-tier subcontractors, suppliers, agents, employees, officers, or
directors. The subcontractor's obligation to indemnify and hold

Indefinite Quantity
1. This is an indefinite quantity contract for the services specified and
effective for the period stated in the Special Instructions for the
Preparation for Proposals and attachments thereto. The actual quantities
provided for treatment will be dependent on funding availability and/or the
amount of product that becomes available for treatment. The quantities
included on Attachment 3 are for pricing purposes only. As noted in
paragraph 119, the minimum guarantee or commitment was removed from the
contractual arrangement by the agreement of October 19, 1995.
<PAGE>
11
2. The Seller shall furnish to WHC, when and if requested, the services
specified in the Pricing Schedule (Attachment 3) up to and including the
quantity designated as the Total Baseline Plus Options, which is 5,120
cubic meters of product.
3. Requirements issued during the effective period of this contract and not
completed within that period shall be completed by the Seller. The
contract shall govern the Seller's and WHC's rights and obligations with
respect to that requirement to the same extent as if the requirement were
completed during the contract's effective period.
Proprietary Data Submittal (H31)
If Seller submits any data as part of this order which is considered by the
Seller to be "Proprietary Data", the document transmitting the data or which
contains the data, shall be boldly marked indicating that the data Included is
considered to be proprietary.
In the event any data is designated as "Proprietary Data", such designation
shall be in accordance with special provision (PMM-44-009) Article SC-7 entitled
"Rights in Technical Data".
LIMITATIONS OF FUNDS (H29X)
1. Although the parties hereto have negotiated the ceiling price of
$15,985,915 for this Purchase Order (hereafter referred to as the Order),
not including the five annual option periods, they understand that
sufficient funds for the full scope of work are not yet available and that
presently there is obligated only the sum of $1,015,207, which equates to
the maximum termination cost for Year 1 per the Termination Liability
Schedule (Attachment 5) based on a 5 year permitting/licensing project
duration. It is anticipated that from time to time additional funds will be
obligated to this order by Westinghouse Hanford Company (WHC).
2. Seller agrees to perform, or have performed, work up to the point at which,
in the event of termination of this Order pursuant to the clause entitled
"Termination", the total amount payable by WHC, including amounts payable
with respect to subcontracts and settlement costs, and pursuant to
paragraph 5 hereof, (hereafter called the "Termination Amount", would in
the exercise of reasonable judgment by the Seller approximate the total
amount then obligated to the Order. WHC shall not be obligated in any event
to pay or reimburse the Seller in excess of the amount then currently
obligated to the Order notwithstanding any other provision of this Order.
3. It is contemplated that funds presently obligated to this Order will cover
the work to be performed during the first year following award. In the
event Seller considers the funds obligated Seller to be inadequate to cover
the work to be performed until such time, or an agreed date in substitution
thereof, the Seller shall notify WHC in writing when within
<PAGE>
12
the next thirty (30) days, the work will reach a point at which the
termination amount approximates 85 percent of the total amount then
obligated to the Order. The notice shall state the estimated date when such
termination amount will be reached and the estimated amount of additional
funds required to continue performance to the above or an agreed
substituted date. If after such notification, additional funds are not
obligated by such date or by an agreed date in substitution thereof, WHC
shall upon Seller's written request, terminate this Order on such date or
the date set forth in the request, whichever is later, pursuant to the
provisions of the "Termination" clause of this Order.
4. When additional funds are obligated from time to time for continued
performance of the work under this Order, the parties shall agree on the
applicable period of Order performance which shall be covered by such
funds. The provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3 above shall apply to such
additional obligated funds and substituted date and the Order amended
accordingly.
5. If the Seller incurs additional cost, or is delayed in the performance of
the work under this Order, solely by reason of the failure of WHC to
obligate additional funds in amounts sufficient for the timely performance
of this Order, and if additional funds are obligated, an equitable
adjustment shall be made in the price or prices, (including appropriate
target, billing, and ceiling prices where applicable), of said item or in
the time of delivery, or both.
6. WHC may at any time prior to termination, obligate additional funds for
this Order.
7. Modification of this Order under the "Changes" article shall not constitute
a change in the amount obligated under this clause.
8. Nothing in this clause shall affect the right of WHC to terminate this
Order pursuant to the termination provisions of the Order.

The Buyer hereby designates the following as the Buyer's Technical
Representative (BTR) for this order:
Barry G. Place, (509) 372-1372, Mail Stop T4-03.

------------
Westinghouse Hanford Company is authorized on behalf of the U.S. Department of
Energy, Richland Operations Office (RL) to provide waste management services for
the Hanford Site.
Low-Level Mixed Waste (LLMW) that is thermally treatable is generated by Hanford
Site waste generating facilities and other facilities that ship waste to the
Hanford Site. This procurement is seeking an organization(s) (referred to as
"the Seller" in this document) to transport and thermally treat Hanford Site
LLMW.
2.0 SERVICES - GENERAL
------------------
Seller shall provide a service for the thermal treatment of LLMW and return the
ash/residue accompanied by the results of laboratory analysis. The Seller shall
provide the transportation for the waste to and from the Hanford Site. The
thermal treatment service shall be in accordance with all applicable local,
state, and federal laws and regulations, and Hanford Site requirements as stated
in this Statement of Work (SOW).
3.0 WASTE
-----
The waste is classified by Hanford Site Solid Waste Acceptance Criteria (HSSWAC)
(WHC 1993) as LLMW and is containerized in drums and boxes and may require size
reduction prior to thermal treatment. Size reduction would be performed by the
Seller, if required.
The waste to be treated contains less than 100 nCi/gm of transuranic (TRU)
radioactive elements. Container surface radiation dose rate is less than 100
mrem/hr. Detailed information describing the existing subject waste inventory is
provided in the document titled: Characterization of Waste LLMW Inventory. This

Hanford site waste generators are required to characterize radioactive mixed
waste (RMW) for storage in the Central Waste Complex. The Buyer shall review
this characterization of each container prior to shipment of waste to sellers
facility. Any additional characterization required to meet Department of
Transportation, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Toxic Substances
Control Act (TSCA), and Washington State Hazardous Waste Management Act (WSHWMA)
regulations for shipment will be performed by Westinghouse Hanford Company.
It is possible that some waste may require additional characterization before it
can be accepted or treated by the Seller. Any additional characterization of the
waste to satisfy waste acceptance criteria which are above and beyond DOT, RCRA,
TSCA and WSHWMA regulations for shipment, shall be performed by the Seller.
4.0 TREATMENT
---------
The radioactive constituents in the waste are regulated by those portions of DOE
Order 5820.2A, Radioactive Waste Management, (DOE 1988) that pertain to the
management of low-level waste and include the requirements in Attachment
A. The radioactive constituents in the waste are also regulated by the Hanford
Site-specific performance assessment criteria discussed in Section 5.0 of this
SOW. The hazardous components in the waste are regulated by the Washington State
Hazardous Waste Management Act (WSHWNA) (Chapter 70.105 Revised Code of
Washington [RCW]), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) (42 USC 6901 et
seq.) and the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.) and
the WSHWMA, RCRA and TSCA implementing regulations contained in Chapter 173-303
Washington Administrative Code (WAC) Dangerous Waste Regulations and Title 40
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) respectively.
2
<PAGE>
The treatment criteria specified in WAC 173-303-140 "Land Disposal
Restrictions", Title 40 CFR Part 268, "Land Disposal Restrictions" and Title 40
CFR, Part 761.70, "Incineration of PCBs and PCB Items" must be achieved.
The Seller will be required to maintain the integrity of the radionuclide
inventory during all phases waste shipment, waste treatment, and ash return.
This may require that the Seller treat the waste in dedicated campaigns. The
laboratory analyses required on the waste and the ash/residue shall provide
evidence that the integrity of the radionuclide inventory has been maintained.
The Buyer may inspect at any time any portion of the Seller's and the Seller's
subcontractor's facilities which may come in contact with the waste to be
treated.
The Seller shall be responsible for all permits and licenses for the
transportation and waste treatment of this waste. The Buyer will be provided, a
copy of all permits and licenses sixty (60) days prior to commencing the first
shipment of waste.
5.0 ASH/RESIDUE AND WASTE CONTAINERS
--------------------------------
The treatment process shall generate a stabilized, solid ash/residue final waste
form. All ash/residue resulting from thermal treatment of the waste shall be
packaged and returned to the Hanford Site for disposal in accordance with HSSWAC
(WHC 1993) and Department of Transportation Regulations (49 CFR 171-179). Unless
prohibited by the characteristics of the ash/residue, fifty-five (55) gallon
drums will be used to return the ash/residue. The HSSWAC (WHC. 1993) contains
information on transportation and container requirements as well as the Hanford
Site process for accepting waste for disposal.
The waste inventory contains radioactive elements including transuranic
constituents. The concentration effect associated with volume reduction by
thermal treatment can increase the concentration of radioactive constituents in
the final waste form. The Offeror shall administratively control the waste feed
so that no TRU waste (as defined by the HSSWAC (WHC 1993)) and no Greater Than
Class C waste (in accordance with 10 CFR 61.55) is generated.
The Seller shall certify that the treated ash/residue, waste container, surface
contamination, and surface dose rates satisfy all applicable requirements for
disposal at the Buyer's LLMW disposal facility. For applicable waste codes, the
Seller shall certify treatment to Land Disposal Restriction standards.
Applicable requirements include the following: the land disposal restriction
standards as specified in Chapter 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 268;
Chapter 40 CFR 264 and 265, Subpart "N" "Landfills"; Washington State
Administrative Code (WAC) "Dangerous Waste Regulations" (WAC 173-303); and the
HSSWAC (WHC 1993).
In addition to the requirements specified in the above regulations, the returned
ash/residue must meet the following Hanford Site-specific performance assessment
criteria:
3
<PAGE>
1. The ash/residue final waste form shall be a stabilized solid, or the
treatment process shall produce a stabilized, solid waste form such as a
glass or a slag. The stabilized, solid waste form shall exhibit a
compressive strength greater than 50 psi.
2. The stabilized, solid waste form shall be packaged in containers having
a void volume percentage of less than 10 percent.
3. If the ash/residue contains any of the five radionuclides, Tc99, Se79,
I129, C14, or uranium and has a total activity concentration for these
radionuclides greater than or equal to 0.0001 Ci/m/3/ and less than or
equal to 0.001 Ci/m3/3/ the stabilized waste form shall exhibit a diffusion
coefficient less than or equal to 10-10 cm/2//sec (Leachability Index
greater than or equal to 10.0) when subjected to leach testing in
accordance with American Nuclear Society Procedure 16.1 (ANSI 1986).
4. If the ash/residue contains any of the five radionuclides, Tc/99/, Se/79/,
I/129/, C/14/, or uranium and has a total activity concentration for these
radionuclides greater than or equal to 0.0001 Ci/m/3/ and less than or
equal to 0.001 Ci/m/33/ the stabilized waste form shall exhibit a diffusion
coefficient less than or equal to 10/-12/ cm/2//sec (Leachability Index
greater than or equal to 12.0) when subjected to leach testing in
accordance with American Nuclear Society Procedure 16.1 (ANSI 1986).
5. If the ash/residue contains uranium in activity concentrations greater than
0.01 Ci/m/3/ the ash/residue must be encapsulated in a Portland cement-
based grout matrix. Any treatment process that produces a glass or a slag
final waste form will require administrative controls of the feed
composition on an individual container basis to avoid this requirement.
Analysis of the waste inventory suggests that only a few containers will
require such administrative controls.
Seller shall provide analytical characterization data on the ash/residue
sufficient to meet the requirements of all state and federal regulations, the
HSSWAC (WHC 1993), and the above Hanford Site-specific performance assessment
criteria. Each ash/residue container shall be assigned a Hanford Site-specific
package identification number (PIN). This PIN shall be referenced on all data,
documentation, and correspondence relating to the waste container. The container
itself shall be physically identified with that number in accordance with the
specifications described in the HSSWAC (WHC 1993).
6.0 LABORATORY ANALYSIS AND QUALITY ASSURANCE
-----------------------------------------
All records associated with the Buyer's wastes (including but not limited to
Seller's sample analysis results) shall be maintained by the Seller using a
method compliant with the requirements specified in WAC 173-303 and 40 CFR 260-
271, and other applicable federal, state, or local regulations. All documents,
procedures, and applicable requirements are subject to audit by the Buyer.
The Seller shall establish a "chain of custody" procedure for laboratory
analysis samples. Test reports shall be clearly traceable back to specific
4

performed by the Seller shall be adequate to properly verify the waste for
acceptance/disposal at the Buyer's facility in accordance with the Hanford Site
Waste Acceptance Criteria.
Any laboratory utilized for waste sample verification analysis under this order
must have a documented and implemented Quality Assurance Program Plan as
specified under the requirements of SW 846. The laboratory's quality assurance
program plan will be subject to approval by the Buyer. The Seller will submit
quality assurance documentation concerning selected analytical laboratory(ies)
to the Buyer 60 days prior to receipt of the first shipment of waste and 60 days
prior to a new analytical laboratory receiving a sample of Hanford Site waste or
the residue/ash from the thermal treatment of Hanford Site waste.
All waste sample analytical services performed by the Seller shall be performed
exclusively for the purposes of characterization for waste treatment and
disposal.
The Seller shall notify the Buyer immediately if analytical results do not agree
with the characterization of the waste provided by the Buyer to the extent that
treatment methods or expected results are affected. The Buyer will direct
disposition of non-compliant waste. Should return of the untreated waste be
necessary, return will be at the Buyer's expense.
Laboratory analysis shall be conducted on the returned ash/residue by the Seller
sufficient to characterize the ash/residue as required by state and federal
regulations, the HSSWAC (WHC 1993), and the Hanford Site-specific performance
assessment requirements discussed in Section 5.0 of this SOW.

TO STATEMENT OF WORK
MANAGEMENT OF LOW-LEVEL WASTE
WASTE CHARACTERIZATION.
(1) Low-level waste shall be characterized with sufficient accuracy to permit
proper segregation, treatment storage, and disposal. This characterization
shall ensure that, upon generation and after processing, the actual
physical and chemical characteristics and major radionuclide content are
recorded and known during all stages of the waste management process.
(2) Waste characterization data shall be recorded on a waste manifest and shall
include:
(a) The physical and chemical characteristics of the waste.
(b) Volume of the waste (total of waste and any solidification
or absorbent media).
(c) Weight of the waste (total of waste and any solidification
or absorbent media).
(d) Major radionuclides and their concentrations.
(e) Packaging date, package weight, and external volume.
(3) The concentration of a radionuclide may be determined by direct methods or
by indirect methods such as use of scaling factors which relate the
inferred concentration of one radionuclide to another that is measured, or
radionuclide material accountability, if there is reasonable assurance that
the indirect methods can be correlated with actual measurements.
WASTE ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA.
(1) Waste acceptance criteria shall be established for each waste treatment,
storage, and disposal facility, and submitted.
(2) The waste acceptance criteria for treatment, storage, or disposal
facilities shall address the following issues:
(a) Allowable quantities/concentrations of specific
radioisotopes to be handled, processed, stored or disposed
of;
(b) Criticality safety requirements (waste forms and
geometries);
10
<PAGE>
(c) Restrictions regarding low-level waste classified for
security reasons;
(d) External radiation and internal heat generation;
(e) Restrictions on the generation of harmful gases, vapors, or
liquids in waste;

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
Low Level Mixed Waste Thermal Treatment Services
WHC Purchase Order MW6-SBV-357079
This Memorandum of Understanding provides clarification to key points that are
crucial to the order. This document does not replace the Statement of Work.
1. ATG will treat all waste categories for which thermal treatment and/or
gasification/immobilization is specified as applicable treatment.
2. ATG proposes to vitrify all wastes except some of the secondary waste from
the air pollution control system and waste that can be classified as
debris.
3. ATG agrees to meet the void space requirement in the SOW and the Hanford
Site Solid Waste Acceptance Criteria.
4. ATG shall provide analytical capabilities (Hazardous and Radiological) to
adequately verify all incoming waste streams, monitor in process, and
characterize product waste streams that meet all regulatory and WHC
requirements referenced in the SOW.
5. ATG's sampling and analysis plan will be provided to WHC when ATG's RCRA
Permit is submitted to the State of Washington for approval.
6. The ATG onsite laboratory must be State of Washington accredited to satisfy
Hanford testing requirements.
7. In the event that the sampling frequency proposed by ATG is deemed
insufficient during the permitting process by a state or federal agency of
jurisdiction, the increased costs due to increased sampling frequency shall
be the sole responsibility of ATG.
8. With respect to ATG's response to WHC question 7 dated June 6, 1995, WHC
and ATG have discussed and agree to be bound by SOW section 3.0. The mixed
waste containers were characterized to standards in effect at the time of
storage. Additional characterization prior to waste shipment will be
performed by WHC only for the purpose of establishing treatability
certification requirements and to meet DOT shipping container requirements.
Upon receipt of the waste from WHC, for its own purposes, or at the request
of regulators, ATG may be required to perform additional waste
characterization. ATG acknowledges that if additional characterization is
required prior to treatment, such effort and cost shall be the
responsibility of ATG.
9. ATG shall anticipate a very broad mix of organic compounds and
radionuclides when preparing permit applications. ATG shall anticipate
having to treat TCSA regulated PCB waste and most RCRA listed and
characteristic wastes, with the exception of those having technology
1
<PAGE>
based standards other than incineration. WHC will provide updated lists of
inventoried materials as they are approved for public release.
10. ATG has been provided WHC-SD-W242-002 and WHC-SD-W242-003 for future
reference. ATG has been provided the current Hanford Site Solid Waste
Acceptance Criteria.
As more current data becomes available on waste related to this contract,
that data will be provided to ATG in electronic format to assist with their
design and permitting tasks.
11. ATG shall accept containers having any or all dimensions up to and
including 8' by 8' by 11'. Waste item size acceptance criteria is limited
to what will fit into the containers.
12. Containers may contain non-metal objects such as concrete and brick larger
than 1 foot by 1 foot by 1 foot.
13. Waste that is to be treated will have been accepted by the Hanford Site
Central Waste Complex, the waste acceptance criteria for which are
identified in WHC-EP-0063-4. ATG shall be required to treat all such waste
unless specifically excluded by mutual agreement with WHC.
14. ATG shall conduct additional waste-specific testing as may be required for
the PEAT process.
15. ATG will be required to be certified as a waste generator by WHC Solid
Waste Disposal Division.
16. Shredding and compaction of HEPA filters is not acceptable to WHC if the
filters are mixed waste.
17. The minimum estimated quantity is one hundred and twenty (120) cubic meters
of waste per year over the first five (5) year period of processing.
18. Maximum Start Date for waste processing is five years from the date of
award. The waste processing's period of performance will entail a five (5)
year baseline period plus five (5) one year options.
19. Contract Type: Indefinite Quantity/Fixed Unit Rate
20. The first one hundred and twenty (120) cubic meters of waste processed each
year during the first five years of processing will be paid for at the 1 to
600 cubic meter unit prices. Quantities in excess of 120 cubic meters per
year during the first five years of processing will be paid for at the 601
to 3,585 cubic meter unit prices. Payment will be made after waste has been
processed compliant with the terms of the purchase order.
21. The loading and unloading of ATG's waste transport vehicles will be
completed by WHC at Hanford only.
2
<PAGE>
22. WHC will provide containers which meet all Department of Transportation
regulations for any waste manifested at the Buyer's facility.
23. WHC will characterize the waste as needed to meet DOT and EPA requirements
as the shipper. Additional characterization needed to treat the waste is
the responsibility of ATG.
24. The waste will be staged at central location(s) at the Buyer's facility.
25. Laboratory Analysis: satisfying the requirements of all environmental
regulations for treatment of the waste and providing a product which is
ready for disposal is ATG's responsibility. If the sample analyses
completed in support of ATG's process are not compliant with regulatory
requirements, it is ATG's responsibility to implement the appropriate
corrective action. There will be no post award price adjustment for
compliance with regulatory requirements unless ATG can cite specific
regulatory changes and substantiate the basis for the associated cost
impact.
26. The mix (contents) of projected waste to be processed as listed on the
"Characterization of Waste - LLMW Inventory Sheets" which were previously
provided under separate cover, shall be the basis for determining the types
of waste to be processed under any resultant order.
The containers listed in Table 1 are excluded from the inventory of
existing waste because they are considered to be beyond the regulatory
scope of the statement of work due to the presence of asbestos or due to
high concentrations of mercury waste.

The "Solid Waste Information and Tracking System" data for containers
222S92-000293 and 222S-92-000166 are attached. The information on
222S-92-000293 includes a correction in Pu-238 weight. Review of both of
these containers reveals that neither meets the definition of transuranic
(TRU) waste and bath are classified as low level mixed waste. Section 3 of
the Statement of Work defines the waste to be treated. Only waste specified
there will be made available for treatment.
Some TSCA materials of greater than 5000 ppm PCB are included with this
order and shall be treated by the Seller. Waste containing asbestos will
not be included with this order and those listed on the inventory sheets
previously provided are removed.
27. The completion of NEPA, permitting, and licensing requirements is the
responsibility of the Seller. The proposed pricing and estimated start date
for waste processing shall assume the appropriate length of time to
accommodate the environmental regulations and laws (e.g., Environmental
Assessment with a Finding of No Significant Impact) commensurate with the
proposed technology.
26. The proposed pricing by ATG shall accommodate all provisions of the Service
Contract Act.
29. No Recycle or Reuse considerations (credit) is included in ATG's pricing.
Recycle or Reuse has not been authorized at this time by the Department of
Energy.
30. The average density of the waste to be processed may be assumed to be the
same as the waste listed on the "Characterization of Waste - LLMW Inventory
Sheets" that ware previously provided. Should the average density of waste
treated be different than the average density of the waste identified on
the inventory sheets, ATG may request an equitable adjustment that is
substantiated by valid and factual supporting documentation. WHC reserves
the right to seek consideration if the average density of the waste allows
a ATG to realize efficiencies not considered in the unit pricing during the
baseline and option year(s) processing.
31. Waste Selection: It is recognized that ATG must be able to provide the
proper waste feed mixture in order to efficiently operate a thermal
treatment facility. To accommodate this requirement, WHC will provide a
list of containers available for treatment by ATG. From that list, ATG
shall select which containers will be placed on each shipment. The list
will be updated as new containers are made available for shipment by WHC.
ATG is responsible for treatment of all waste identified on the inventory
lists. Toward the end of the order, ideal waste mixture for optimum
facility operation may not be available and ATG shall still be responsible
for processing all waste provided by WHC.
4
<PAGE>
32. Transportation (Shipment Size): It is recognized that ATG must be able to
estimate shipment size in order to provide an accurate proposal. ATG shall
assume all shipments of waste will contain the quantity and mix of
containers of waste selected by ATG (number and size). Restated: all
shipments will be of the size desired by ATG based upon the inventory
availability.
Hanford Site rules do not preclude loading two layers of containers on a
truck within the limits specified by the Department of Transportation and
Nuclear Regulatory Commission for the type of waste to be treated. The
Hanford Site will load vehicles as directed by ATG. The vehicle axle
weight limits will not be exceeded and ATG will provide all necessary
materials to secure the containers.
33. Ash/Residue as described in the Statement of Work refers to all products of
thermal treatment including glass or slag. The Hanford Site Specific
Performance Requirements specified in the Statement of Work,. Section 5.0,
Leach Testing Requirements references the American Nuclear Society
Procedure 16.1. The standard 90 day test shall be used to meet this
requirement.
34. Generation of TRU and GTCC ash/residue: The waste inventory contains
radioactive elements, including transuranic constituents. The
concentration effect associated with volume reduction by thermal treatment
can increase the concentration of radioactive constituents in the final
waste form. ATG shall administratively control the waste feed so that no
TRU waste (as defined by the HSSWAC (WHC 1993) and no greater than Class C
waste (in accordance with 10 CFR 61.55) is generated.
35. ATG agrees to purchase and ready a Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption
Spectrometer in addition to the analytical equipment previously identified
by ATG to be utilized in performing this work.
36. WHC may not have funding to pay for processing earlier than 5 years
following award. Processing before 5 years following award will require
written authorization from WHC.
