Background Introduction

bull The corrosion rate used in the TSPA-LA is based on corrosion test data from 5 year test specimens and generated in -FY01

The 95 year test specimens are being readied to provide new data that would presumably validate the TSPA-LA corrosion rate

bull In a technical review of the 5 year data and a review of the methodology a vulnerability was uncovered

Issue Summary bull There are documented repeated and potentially significant

excursions from the ASTM standard for corrosion test specimens bull The cleaning of 5 year corrosion coupons from the LTCTF may have

been incomplete leaving samples in an indeterminate state bull Complete cleaning of the 5 year coupons could result in larger weight

loss values than are currently used for the general corrosion model bull Complete cleaning of 95 year coupons might show an increase in

corrosion rate compared to the existing 5-year data bull While corroborative data exist in the literature almost all corrosion

studies reviewed to date reported corrosion rates greater than the 5 year data from the LTCTF

bull Net Effect - Our TSPA-LA corrosion rate may not be conservative and if not could

significantly affect the results for the EIS and the peak dose results - Basic defensibility of the TSPA-LA corrosion rate is jeopardized without

some confirmation in essence the rate we now use is an assertion - A CR will be initiated

Path Forward

bull Initiate a CR

bull Corrective Action Initiate and accelerate new scope to collect the data that will confirm or refute the conservatism in the TSPA-LA corrosion rate before docketing

bull Regenerate and re-evaluate the 5 year data and generate 95 year data correctly

- ROM estimate is -650K refined estimate pending

bull Expert judgment is lt50 chance the TSPA-LA rate is invalid but given the critical nature of this parameter is must be confirmed

bull Prevent Recurrence Transition the corrosion test samples testing and data generation to a fully ASTM compliant methodology with qualified technicians and equipment

bull Conclusion Does not effect going forward with the LA if we generate the confirmatory data prior to docketing

The cleaning procedure used on the 5 year samples does not appear to meet the intent of the ASTM guidelines ASTM G1-90 Standard Practice for Preparing Cleaning and Evaluating Corrosion Test Specimens (reapproved 1999)

ASTM G1-90 TIP-CM-51Lab notebooks (Pre-exposure) 631 Degrease in organic solvent or hot alkaline cleaner 632 Pickle in an appropriate solution if oxides or tarnish are present

Samples in the LTCTF were tested in the asshyreceived condition from the supplier (Notebook 241 p16) or samples were degreased in acetone (McCright 1998 [DIRS 114637] p22-11)

(Post-exposure) 711 By weighing the control specimen before and after cleaning the extent of metal loss resulting from cleaning can be utilized to correct the corrosion mass loss

TIP-CM-51 Appendix A Weight loss on control foil samples was shown to be on the order of 01 mg (resolution of balance) No data from Alloy 22 coupons was located No corrections made to weight loss data

(Suggested practice) 7121 The cleaning procedure should be repeated on specimens several times

TIP-CM-51 7231 If the weight is at or below the initial starting weight cease cleaning the specimen and proceed to step 725 below

(Suggested practice) 7122 The mass loss should be graphed as a function of the number of equal cleaning cycles the mass loss due to corrosion will correspond approximately to point B [see graph next slide]

TIP-CM-51 725 Selected specimens will be checked by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to ensure that all the corrosion products are removed If corrosion products remain on the specimen repeat cleaning procedure

Proposed approach to clarifying the disposition of the 5year weight loss data

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples

Proposed approach to clarifying the disposition of the 5year weight loss data

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples

Issue Summary bull There are documented repeated and potentially significant

excursions from the ASTM standard for corrosion test specimens bull The cleaning of 5 year corrosion coupons from the LTCTF may have

been incomplete leaving samples in an indeterminate state bull Complete cleaning of the 5 year coupons could result in larger weight

loss values than are currently used for the general corrosion model bull Complete cleaning of 95 year coupons might show an increase in

corrosion rate compared to the existing 5-year data bull While corroborative data exist in the literature almost all corrosion

studies reviewed to date reported corrosion rates greater than the 5 year data from the LTCTF

bull Net Effect - Our TSPA-LA corrosion rate may not be conservative and if not could

significantly affect the results for the EIS and the peak dose results - Basic defensibility of the TSPA-LA corrosion rate is jeopardized without

some confirmation in essence the rate we now use is an assertion - A CR will be initiated

Path Forward

bull Initiate a CR

bull Corrective Action Initiate and accelerate new scope to collect the data that will confirm or refute the conservatism in the TSPA-LA corrosion rate before docketing

bull Regenerate and re-evaluate the 5 year data and generate 95 year data correctly

- ROM estimate is -650K refined estimate pending

bull Expert judgment is lt50 chance the TSPA-LA rate is invalid but given the critical nature of this parameter is must be confirmed

bull Prevent Recurrence Transition the corrosion test samples testing and data generation to a fully ASTM compliant methodology with qualified technicians and equipment

bull Conclusion Does not effect going forward with the LA if we generate the confirmatory data prior to docketing

Proposed approach to clarifying the disposition of the 5year weight loss data

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples

Path Forward

bull Initiate a CR

bull Corrective Action Initiate and accelerate new scope to collect the data that will confirm or refute the conservatism in the TSPA-LA corrosion rate before docketing

bull Regenerate and re-evaluate the 5 year data and generate 95 year data correctly

- ROM estimate is -650K refined estimate pending

bull Expert judgment is lt50 chance the TSPA-LA rate is invalid but given the critical nature of this parameter is must be confirmed

bull Prevent Recurrence Transition the corrosion test samples testing and data generation to a fully ASTM compliant methodology with qualified technicians and equipment

bull Conclusion Does not effect going forward with the LA if we generate the confirmatory data prior to docketing

The cleaning procedure used on the 5 year samples does not appear to meet the intent of the ASTM guidelines ASTM G1-90 Standard Practice for Preparing Cleaning and Evaluating Corrosion Test Specimens (reapproved 1999)

ASTM G1-90 TIP-CM-51Lab notebooks (Pre-exposure) 631 Degrease in organic solvent or hot alkaline cleaner 632 Pickle in an appropriate solution if oxides or tarnish are present

Samples in the LTCTF were tested in the asshyreceived condition from the supplier (Notebook 241 p16) or samples were degreased in acetone (McCright 1998 [DIRS 114637] p22-11)

(Post-exposure) 711 By weighing the control specimen before and after cleaning the extent of metal loss resulting from cleaning can be utilized to correct the corrosion mass loss

TIP-CM-51 Appendix A Weight loss on control foil samples was shown to be on the order of 01 mg (resolution of balance) No data from Alloy 22 coupons was located No corrections made to weight loss data

(Suggested practice) 7121 The cleaning procedure should be repeated on specimens several times

TIP-CM-51 7231 If the weight is at or below the initial starting weight cease cleaning the specimen and proceed to step 725 below

(Suggested practice) 7122 The mass loss should be graphed as a function of the number of equal cleaning cycles the mass loss due to corrosion will correspond approximately to point B [see graph next slide]

TIP-CM-51 725 Selected specimens will be checked by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to ensure that all the corrosion products are removed If corrosion products remain on the specimen repeat cleaning procedure

Proposed approach to clarifying the disposition of the 5year weight loss data

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples

Proposed approach to clarifying the disposition of the 5year weight loss data

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples

Proposed approach to clarifying the disposition of the 5year weight loss data

bull A subset of the previously analyzed 5 year samples could be cleaned using multiple cleaning cycles to determine if additional weight loss is observed compared to the existing data set

- It is proposed that samples from the sew and SOW aqueous environments be analyzed as the cleaning procedure for these exposure conditions has been characterized using control samples

- It is proposed that six weight loss samples and six crevice samples from each environment be analyzed initially 24 total samples represents approximately 2000 of the previously analyzed 5 year samples
