APPENDIX B – Reliability Project Investment Portfolio (RPIP)
Appendix B is a webhosted tool designed to help with year-round mission support planning, feeding contractor’s
requirements into the annual budget and funding decisions.
Appendix B includes the Reliability Project Investment Portfolio (RPIP) for FY2017 through FY2022.
The RPIP is a list, compiled by the Mission Support Alliance (MSA) Public Works group, of all the reliability
projects defined by Other Hanford Contractor (OHC) needs.
Moving from the left hand column to the right hand column, detailed information is available for each project.
While projects must have a Cost Estimate to be included in the RPIP, this information is Official Use Only
(OUO) and is therefore left out of Appendix B. The table is updated annually during the April to September
timeframe of each annual planning calendar, based on formal quarterly reviews by.
Using Appendix B along with Appendix A, C, D, & E and Infrastructure and Services Alignment Plan
(ISAP) System Text
Each reliability project in Appendix B is proposed by MSA system owners and validated by Hanford contractors,
RL managers, and subject matter experts. In each annual planning calendar, a reported mission support need in
Appendix C Contractor Requirements per J-3 Matrix defines each reliability project listed in Appendix B.
The projects meet needs and scheduled target dates from source documents in Appendix A Planning Document
Reference List. Appendix B project list supports the 13 webhosted ISAP System text sections with more detail
while project tables in the draft and final version of the ISAP summary brochure shows only project title and year
of implementation.
Each year, any requested validated need that cannot be met within the annual planning calendar cycle by a
defined, ranked and scored reliability project is reported in Appendix D Gaps List or in Appendix E Major
Actions and Major Decisions Needed List, as appropriate.
Background & Purpose
ISAP “Appendix B – Reliability Project Investment Portfolio” is a comprehensive list of planned projects needed
to support OHC requirements for the reliability of the Hanford Site infrastructure. It is intended to be an
expansion of the project tables found in the ISAP summary brochure system roadmaps, for each system
maintained and operated by MSA and owned by U. S. Department of Energy-Richland Operations Office (DOE-
RL).
The table on the following pages results from ISAP Program staff taking a graded step approach to process
quality improvements from FY2010 through FY2017.
Authority
The authority to develop the reliability projects list is the Mission Support Contract (MSC) J-3 requirements for
ISAP annual updates of HNF-44238 submitted to DOE-RL as CD0003 contract deliverable according to the
mission support planning guidance established in MSC-GD-MS-54665, Mission Support Planning Process

Impacts to Department of Energy (DOE) of Needed Infrastructure Project if Not Performed by Date
Specified
When a project on Appendix B has a specified target year shown in the Mission Need Statement or Project
Description, an impact to DOE is created if the project is ranked and prioritized in the RPIP. The impact
associated with deferred funding of a ranked project, causing a shift into a future year, cannot be known at the
time each individual scope of work form is initiated. To avoid the impact to DOE of an intentionally deferred
project, RL should fund each project on Appendix B that shows “currently needed” plus those projects showing a
specific target year.

L-894, Raw Water Cross
Connection Isolation 200E/W.
The project scope is to design, procure, and construct
water system components that will eliminate cross-
connections between the RW systems and the potable and
export water systems in accordance with WAC 246-290.
Modifications will include:
1) Physical pipe separations and RW reservoir weir
modifications.
2) RW system modifications to meet NFPA and CRD O
420.1C requirements.
3) Removal of all direct export water feeds into the RW
system that exist in or near 282EC and 282WC.
4) Removal of all direct feed from PW to RW within
282EC and 282WC.
5) Removal of the RW grid feed to the 283W WTF.
6) Implementation of modifications to mitigate lost
redundancies.
The cross-connection control non-compliances with
WAC 246-290 within the 200 Areas water systems
must be corrected. DOE-RL has requested MSA to
resolve the RW system non-compliances by making
necessary physical modifications within the 200
Areas water systems via a global RW system air gap
approach rather than at an individual facilities RW
service connection level. (DOE-RL Letter 16-ISD-
0016, dated June 21, 2016).
If cross-connection control is not implemented, 1)
the system will remain in non-compliance with
WAC-246-290 and 2) the potential exists for
contaminated water entering the PW distribution
system. This could result in the spread of
contamination throughout extensive areas of the PW
system, potentially causing health and safety
concerns for human consumption and/or the spread
of radiological contamination.
The mission need is identified in "Hanford Site
Water System Master Plan," (August 2016, HNF-
5828, Rev. 5. The export water system provides all
water to the 200 Area Plateau. The system
provides water to the RW reservoirs and water
treatment facility for the PW system.
The RW grids provide fire protection water and
process water to the Plateau. The PW is utilized for
domestic and appropriately protected fire and
process water.
A WAC compliant air gapped RW system is
needed to prevent potential of cross-contamination
of the potable and export water systems with the
RW system.
Water FY17, FY18
L-895, Fire Protection
Infrastructure Plateau Raw
Water.
The project will add the necessary fire protection
infrastructure to the RW systems in the 200E and 200W
Areas.
Additions will include 200E and 200W Areas pumps,
pump house structures, and backup power systems as well
as the necessary pipe interfacing with the RW reservoirs
and RW grids.
Project L-894 will sever the RW grids' only certified
pumps. Compensatory fire protection infrastructure
is required to satisfy the RW grids' fire protection
requirements which will be provided by Project L-
895.
If the project scope is not implemented, the fire
protection capabilities for nuclear facilities will be
less than adequate.
The RW grid provides fire protection water (and
process water) to the Plateau. Certified and
dedicated fire pumps and backup power systems
are required for Plateau fire protection
requirements. The Water System Master Plan,
HNF-5828, documents the required fire flows for
facilities requiring fire protection from DOE and
NFPA orders. Because project L-894 will remove
the dedicated PW fire pumps from supplying the
RW grid, new RW fire suppression infrastructure
must be constructed to satisfy DOE orders and
NFPA requirements.

L-612, 230kV Transmission
System Reconditioning and
Sustainability Upgrades.
Project L-612 includes replacing the existing north loop of
the site 230kV transmission system to ensure system
reliability through FY2060. The existing line consists of
approximately 28 miles of wood and steel lattice
structures, conductors, and associated hardware. The
replacement system will be rightsized to continue to meet
site needs.
Reliable electrical power is a cornerstone for safe,
timely execution of the Hanford Site mission. The
construction, and soon operation, of the Waste
Treatment Project (WTP) will require reliable power
to operate cost effectively and safely for over 40
years. The existing north loop of the 230kV
redundant transmission system is showing signs of
failure that have been short term mitigated, and have
exceeded design life and will likely not be capable
of providing required available power through
mission completion, since accelerated failures are
already becoming evident.
The Hanford Site Electrical Transmission and
Distribution (T&D) System is owned DOE, under
management of Richland Operations Office (DOE-
RL). The system exists for the purpose of
supporting the cleanup mission at the Hanford Site.
The Hanford Site electrical 230kV Transmission
system is approximately 53 miles long and has
three active substations: A6 (WTP), A8 (Central
Plateau), and A9 (100 Areas). The Hanford
electrical transmission system is served from the
Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) 230kV
Substations located at Midway and Ashe. This is a
loop-type transmission system with sectionalizing
features which are intended to provide high-level
operational reliability. It is important to the
Hanford Site mission that the 230kV Transmission
system be operated in a safe, reliable, and cost-
effective manner. The Site Transmission System is
connected to the Northwest Electrical Power Grid,
and as such must comply with additional regulatory
requirements. In addition to operating the system
in a safe and cost-effective manner, the 230kV
Transmission System must also be operated in
compliance with the applicable Reliability
Standards which became mandatory on June 18,
2007.

L-871, Filter Plant Pilot
Project.
The objective of this pilot study is to confirm the selected
technology for water treatment (membrane filtration) and
determine design inputs for full-scale implementation.
This project will install a pilot water treatment system in
near proximity to the existing 283W Facility and collect
operational data for approximately six months (target
March-September). This will require facility
modifications to support the temporary installation of the
pilot plant that will be provided by an off-site vendor.
Pilot Study will require approval from the Washington
Department of Health (WDOH) in accordance with the
Water System Design Manual (DOH 331-123). Prior to
installation, a Pilot Study Plan will be developed and
approved by WDOH in accordance with DOH 331-123.
Project will include disinfection, neutralization, and
evaluation of effluent discharge to Hanford Discharge
Facility, Treated Effluent Disposal Facility (TEDF).
The current 283W Facility is unable to meet future
PW demand, requiring the construction of a new
PW treatment facility. In support of this
construction, a pilot study is required per WDOH.
The current water filtration facility (283W) located
in the 200 West (200W) Area is approximately 70
years old. Operations is utilizing aging equipment,
designs, and processes. This facility is critical and
is the only facility for producing PW and fire
protection to the 200 East (200E) and West Area.
This project will support an alternative to
maintaining the current facility. Forecasted
demands indicate existing facility (283W) will not
be adequate to support future mission needs.

L-897, 200 Area Water
Treatment Plant
Project L-897, "200 Area Water Treatment Facility" will
provide planning, design, and construction to install a new
PW treatment facility on the Central Plateau. This new
treatment facility will be designed and sized to be capable
of producing a minimum of 3.5 million gallons per day
(MGD) with the ability to expand to 5 MGD, to meet
current and future forecasted PW demand. The new water
treatment facility will be constructed using modular units
fitted with PALL Aria™ microfilration hollow fiber direct
feed membrane system for water filtration.
Scope includes provision for potable and export water
connections, sewer, electrical, HLAN, interior and exterior
lighting, fire protection/detection systems, and wastewater
disposal infrastructure connected to a new facility. The
new water treatment facility will need to be connected to
the new PW Storage Tank, to be installed under Project L-
850. This will eliminate the need for a below ground clear
well.
A WDOH project report will be required under WAC 246-
290 to be submitted and approved prior to construction.
Upon construction completion, a Project Construction
Completion Report is required to be submitted to the
WDOH within 60 days.
Assumptions/Exclusions include:
- The new PW Tank and distribution pumps being installed
under Project L-850 will function as the clear well and
provide contact time, and so is needed to be installed and
operational before completion and startup of the new
Water Treatment Facility.
- The new facility will be located in the 200W area,
adjacent to the existing water treatment facility and local
infrastructure. Assumed approximately 8,000 sq. ft.
facility on approx. 10,000 sq. ft. concrete slab.
- It is assumed the new water treatment facility will require
the following infrastructure:
Export Water Connections – Approx. 200 linear ft. of 16”
diameter pipe, and necessary pressure reducing valves and
isolation valves.
Output to Sanitary Water System – Approx. 700 linear ft.
of 16” diameter pipe, and necessary isolation valves.
Approx. 560 linear ft. of 8” diameter Sanitary Sewer.
Dual feed 480v electrical power and assumed
approximately 1,000kVA backup diesel generator.
- Building plan will include provisions for a central control
room, restroom(s), conference room, storage spaces,
mechanical & electrical room(s), and break room/kitchen.
The current Waste Treatment Facility (WTF) has
exceeded it’s design life. If the new Water
Treatment Facility is not constructed, there will be
substantial and cascading impacts to DFLAW, the
WTF, and Central Plateau operations, as the current
WTF is unable to produce the amount of PW that
will be needed to perform functions that are central
and vital to the Cleanup Mission. Cleanup and
waste treatment processes would be slowed/halted
due to lack of water for key processes and fire
suppression at nuclear facilities.
The existing 283W WTF, provides all PW to the
Central Plateau, supporting fire suppression,
process operations, and domestic use. Originally
constructed in 1944, several extensive
infrastructure repairs and upgrades to the WTF
have commenced over the years, including
upgrades to the pretreatment equipment, filter
nozzles and filter media, effluent configuration and
monitoring equipment, chlorination systems,
flocculation system, and storage clear wells.
Despite these upgrades, much of the facility and
internal components remain original 1944
equipment. The existing WTF continues to
deteriorate, as repairs and major upgrades become
more costly and complex to perform.
In addition to the deteriorating condition of the
WTF, PW demands for Hanford are projected to
increase beyond the capacity of the current WTF by
FY2020. The existing WTF does not have the
ability to increase sufficient capacity for the
projected cold/hot startup commissioning’s nor
operation of DFLAW/WTP and so will not be able
to meet the projected site demand. Based on
known projected PW Demands, a WTF capable of
providing ~2,400 gpm of PW will be needed to
meet the needs of the Hanford Site Cleanup
Mission. Water

1. The project scope includes the replacement of four
283W Water Treatment Facility valves per filter and the
replacement of the current hydraulic operator with an
electric motor operator and controller. The valve
replacements include:
Influent Valves 12" Gate Valve, RW-V-314, RW-V-

2. Valves will be procured with 4-20ma connection
capability.
3. The project will include the lifting assemble(s) required
for valve replacement in the confined space between the
filters beneath the operating floor.
4. The valve control will include a new control panel
routed from the 283W Motor Control Center to the South
wall of the filter operating floor. Electric power will be
routed to each valve operator.
Several of these filtered water plant valves are
currently inoperable and have already placed Filter
#3 and Filter #4 out of commission. The filtered
water plant is currently operating with only two
filter trains. Not replacing these valves increases
the potential for additional valve failures and
impacts to filtered water production.
The 283-W Filter Plant provides all sanitary water
consumed on the 200 Area Plateau, providing
Potable Water (PW) to workers, redundant sanitary
fire protection grid critical to cleanup missions all
over the Plateau, and support of Documented
Safety Analysis (DSA) is for the nuclear facilities.
The existing valve control system for the filters is
obsolete and no longer supported by the vendors,
thus increasing operational risk.

Project L-419, "24inch Export Water Line Replacement,
2901U to 200E, 283EB" will replace the aging north leg
of the Export Water lines feeding the 200E Area. This
approximately 2.32 mile run of 24" Mortar Line Steel
Pipe was installed in 1967 and is in need of
replacement. Scope includes:
Planning, permitting, and design to replace this run
of pipe,
Excavation and construction of new pipeline,
including new vent and drain valve stations, and
repairs asphalt roadways that are crossed/disturbed
during construction,
Demolition as needed and abandonment in place of
the old line,
Tie-in and testing of new line.
If this 24” line is not replaced, failures in the line
will continue at the rate of 1 line brake each year.
Placing the 200E Area on a single feed for fire
protection to several nuclear facilities. The mission
requires raw water support to the 242A Evaporator
Facility, fire suppression in the 200E Area, and to
the WTP VIT plant.
The export water system provides all make-up
water to the 200 Area Plateau. The systems
support all water treatment for the sanitary water
system, as well as providing water to the raw water
reservoirs. These in turn supply the raw water grid,
providing fire protection water, process water,
water to the 242-A Evaporator, and to the VIT
plant and for construction at all facilities in the
200E Areas. Renovation and replacement of this
line offer a potential cost savings to our client. We
have had 1 line break in this line over the past five
years. This and all future line breaks become
emergent and costly issues. Downtime of the line
for repairs puts the system at a single point failure.

L-868, Raw Water Fire
Protection Loop for Low
Activity Waste Pretreatment
System (LAWPS).
A new 12' Raw Water (RW) line will be installed between
the existing 12" RW header at the NE corner outside 241-
AP tank farm and the existing 12" RW header near the
corner of 4th Avenue and WTP Loop Road. The new RW
header will provide a Fire Water (FW) loop for the new
LAWPS facility to tie into. The new 12" FW header will
span approximately 1300' underground and will provide
the tie-in points for the new installation of fire hydrants on
the east, south, and west sides of the LAWPS Facility. In
addition to the hydrants, the new header will supply the tie
in points for the water sprinkler and deluge systems within
LAWPS process building and select out buildings. The
existing 4" PW on the north side of the site will also
provide a tie-in point for PW for the facility.
The following reference documents for the LAWPS
provide information for the entire facility for which the
FW loop is a subset of infrastructure being constructed by
this project.

Pretreatment System (Project T5L01).
3. RPP-SPEC-56967, Rev. 3, Project T5L01 Low
Activity Waste Pretreatment System Specification.
The new fire protection loop is a critical portion of
LAWPS facility project. National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) 801 requires that "water or
another suitable extinguishing agent shall be
provided for fire-fighting purposes" if combustibles
are present in a quantity sufficient to constitute a
fire hazard. General fire protection on the Tank
Operating Contractor portion of Hanford site is
governed by TFC-PLN-13, Fire Protection Plan.
This project is required to support the DOE-Office
of River Protection (ORP) mission to process low
activity waste. DOE ORP Fire Protection Program
ENS-ENG-IP-05, requires a minimum of two fire
hydrants served by a 12 inch minimum fire line for
"each major building". ENS-ENG-IP-05 also
requires the water supply for fire protection be of
the looped grid type. The proposed installation will
connect two 12" existing RW lines north and
southwest of the LAWPS facility resulting in a
looped grid with two sources of water supply at the
new buildings supporting LAWPS.

L-789, Distribution
Refurbishments.
As described in HNF-6608, Electrical Utilities Master
Plan, this project is currently scoped to implement a wood
pole maintenance, treatment, and testing program. The
project will also replace nearly 2500 wood power poles in
the Hanford electrical T&D system. The project will be
sequenced relative to the need and location of the various
lines at risk to failure due to aging wood poles.
Preliminary pole replacement prioritization was performed
in HNF-54353, Wood Power Pole Prioritization Analysis,
April 2013. Additionally, hardware and conductors will be
evaluated and replaced as required to meet site mission.
Failure to replace aged/deteriorated wood poles
could result in extended unplanned electrical system
outages, initiate wildland grass fires, and place
emergency response personnel into an unsafe work
environment. This could result in unplanned
outages and disruption to service with particular
concern during sensitive operations.
Both nuclear and support facilities continue to
require safe and reliable electrical power on the
Hanford Site. Recent age-related pole failures to
the Site electrical 13.8kV distribution system,
coupled with condition assessments of a
representative sample of power poles, has identified
the need to initiate a power pole replacement
program in order to continue to meet current and
forecasted system reliability and electrical load
availability requirements. The major components
of the Site electrical T&D system are the wooden
utility power poles, hardware, and conductors.

L-815, Upgrade
Transmission/Distribution
Access Roads.
Project L-815 will reclaim and upgrade sections of service
access roads not already covered within the scope of
ongoing related projects. Key areas include about 21 miles
of the access roads along the 230kV Southern Loop, and
about 20 to 25 miles in the 100, 200, and 600 Areas to
service 13.8kV distribution lines. Project activities will
include vegetation mowing, removal of blow sand,
leveling, gravel spreading and application of pre-emergent
herbicide on service roads. The scope will also include the
development of a lifecycle maintenance schedule for all
T&D access roads.
Some sections of T&D access roads are completely
overgrown or covered with blow sand, impeding
access. Failure to reclaim and maintain the T&D
access roads restricts the ability of Electrical
Utilities (EU) to perform scheduled maintenance
that is required by federal reliability standards
(WECC/NERC PRC-005), and inhibits prompt
access to restore power when there is an outage or
failure delaying or interrupting ongoing Hanford
Cleanup Projects (i.e., Groundwater Pump and
Treats, DFLAW, Vit Plant, etc.). If the service
roads are not maintained, they do not serve a
secondary function as fire breaks to impede the
spread of uncontrolled wildfires. Other concerns
include; possible ecological/cultural damage if
trucks are required to leave the access roads to
respond to pole fires, unplanned outages, and
dropped aerial lines.
Safe and reliable power is needed to support the
Hanford Site Cleanup and Long-Term Stewardship
Missions. Reclamation and maintenance of the
pole line service roads is required to: enable
performance of scheduled line patrols and
inspections, to support timely access to the systems
when there is an outage or imminent failure, and to
re-establish fire breaks. The need for this project
was identified in the 2015 and 2016 Infrastructure
and Services Alignment Plan (ISAP) and in the FY
2015 EU Master Plan (HNF-6608, Electrical
Utilities Master Plan.)

L-761, Replace RFAR (Phase
II).
This project is the second phase of a two phase project that
will complete replacement of the Hanford Radio Fire Alert
Reporting (RFAR) System to be compliant with NFPA 72,
2013. Phase II will remove approximately 200 outdated
Harlow RFAR call boxes and replace with new Monaco
RFAR boxes.
The RFAR system is approximately 26 years old
and is out of compliance of the national NFPA-72
code which regulates RFAR systems. System
failures at the circuit board level have become more
frequent and the backend reporting system operates
on a legacy 80286 system running the MS Disk
Operating System (DOS) with minimal to no spare
parts available. Failures of the backend reporting
system have also become more frequent. This life
safety and asset protection system is well beyond its
lifecycle and is becoming increasingly unreliable.
System components for repairs are no longer
available from any supplier.
The Hanford RFAR system was installed in 1986
and is experiencing an increase in trouble
conditions reported by the system, and the system
serviceability and reliability are becoming
questionable. The RFAR trouble conditions require
an around the clock, 30 minute response by a
firefighter. There are several concerns with the
receiving station equipment. Both the hardware
and DOS based software are obsolete. With the
manufacturer stating that they will no longer be
manufacturing the current installed RFAR system
components, troubleshooting, maintenance and
repair have become difficult, and obtaining
replacement parts problematic. In addition, the
receiving station equipment has been modified and
augmented over the 27 years that the system has
been in service and now includes a number of
components that are not part of the original Factory
Mutual Approved system. Project L-761 has been
initiated to replace the Hanford Site GH Harlow
RFAR system (fire alarm transmitters and receiving
station equipment) with a Monaco Enterprises
Proprietary Supervising Station System. The new
system is a life cycle solution for this critical
notification link that will provide long-term
reliability and serviceability while restoring Factory
Mutual compliance.

L-775, Chip Seal Route 4S,
Route 11A to Wye Barricade.
Project L-775 will rehabilitate Route 4S from Route 11A
to Wye Barricade by placing a chip seal over the existing
asphalt. The roadway length is approximately 11.8 miles,
and the pavement surface width varies from 27 to 30 feet,
with additional width for acceleration and deceleration
lanes at all major intersections for a total pavement surface
area of approximately 263,700 square yards. Paint striping
will be applied for lane lines and fog lines. It is assumed
that the road can be adequately overlaid, and that the
existing road configuration is sufficient for the work
planned, and will not change.
The traffic lanes are beginning to rut, as well as
showing longitudinal cracking due to heavy hauling
loads. Longitudinal cracking in the road bed makes
this pavement susceptible to moisture infiltration
causing road structure deterioration due to
freeze/thaw conditions. If an asphalt overlay is not
completed before the rut depth exceeds ¾”, the cost
to resurface the road will increase due to the need to
complete a pre-level lift of asphalt before the
wearing surface coarse is applied. Rutting also
becomes a safety hazard to traffic in wet and
freezing weather due to hydroplaning or extreme icy
conditions in the wheel tracks and could result in an
accident with serious injuries. This section of Route
4S will continue to have a high volume of heavy
haul truck traffic due to the completion of
remediation of the 300 Area.
Hanford has a major environmental cleanup
operation required to meet national priorities and
legally binding milestones. Because of its remote
location, nuclear operations and cleanup mission,
over 8000 people require safe and reliable access to
the Hanford Site. This project will provide an
overlay to a portion or Route 4S that supports
access to the 100, 200, and 600 Areas of the
Hanford Site enabling necessary personnel to
support cleanup of the Central Plateau, WTP
construction and operations, Tank Waste retrieval
and pre-treatment, groundwater treatment, and
waste disposition and storage. Route 4S is the
main artery to access the Hanford Central Plateau
and is continuing to deteriorate, resulting in
reduced reliability and safety for both personnel
access as well as material hauling.

L-776, Chip Seal Route 4S,
Wye Barricade to 618-10 Site.
Project L-776 will rehabilitate Route 4S from the Wye
Barricade to the 618-10 Waste Site intersection (MP 17.6)
by placing a chip seal over the existing asphalt. The
roadway length is approximately 5.79 miles and the width
is 68' feet with additional width for acceleration and
deceleration lanes at all major intersections. The shoulders
will be built up to finish grade of the new asphalt with
gravel, and paint striping will be applied for lane lines and
fog lines.
This section of Route 4S is needed long term as a
haul and commute route to support site remediation,
tank farm operations and closure, and for operation
of the WTP. The last asphalt overlay on this section
of roadway was completed in 1986, and a chip seal
was applied in 2005. The traffic lanes are beginning
to rut, as well as showing longitudinal cracking due
to heavy hauling loads. Longitudinal cracking in
the road bed makes this pavement susceptible to
moisture infiltration causing road structure
deterioration due to freeze/thaw conditions. If an
asphalt overlay is not completed before the rut depth
exceeds ¾”, the cost to resurface the road will
increase due to the need to complete a pre-level lift
of asphalt before the wearing surface coarse is
applied. Rutting also becomes a traffic safety
hazard to traffic in wet and freezing weather due to
hydroplaning or extreme icy conditions in the wheel
tracks and could result in an accident with serious
injuries. This section of Route 4S will continue to
have a high volume of heavy haul truck traffic due
to the remediation of the 618-10 and 618-11 waste
sites, as well as completion of remediation of the
300 Area.
Hanford has a major environmental cleanup
operation required to meet national priorities and
legally binding milestones. Because of its remote
location, nuclear operations and cleanup mission,
over 8000 people require safe and reliable access to
the Hanford Site. This project will provide an
overlay to a portion of Route 4S that supports
access to the 100, 200, and 600 Areas of the
Hanford Site. This route is used for a haul and
commute route to support cleanup of the Central
Plateau, WTP construction and operations, tank
waste retrieval and pre-treatment, groundwater
treatment, and waste disposition and storage.
Route 4S is the main artery to access the Hanford
Central Plateau and is continuing to deteriorate,
resulting in reduced reliability and safety for both
personnel access as well as material hauling. This
section of Route 4S has the highest average daily
traffic count in the Hanford road network.

L-777, Chip Seal Route 4S,
618-10 Waste Site to Horn
Rapids Road.
Project L-777 will rehabilitate Route 4S from the 618-10
Waste Site intersection to Horn Rapids Road by placing a
chip seal over the existing asphalt. The roadway length is
approximately 5.3 miles and the width is 68' feet with
additional width for acceleration and deceleration lanes at
all major intersections for a total area of approximately
256,310 square yards. Paint striping will be applied for
lane lines and fog lines. It is assumed that the road can be
adequately overlaid and that the existing road
configuration is sufficient for the work planned.
The traffic lanes are beginning to rut as well as
showing longitudinal cracking due to heavy loads.
Longitudinal cracking in the road bed makes this
pavements susceptible to moisture infiltration,

L-859, Rebuild 1st Street,
Canton Ave. to Integrated
Disposal Facility (IDF)
Entrance.
Project L-859 will rebuild 1st Street from Canton Avenue
west to the IDF entrance road, a distance of approximately
4,225 lineal feet, to widen the pavement width from 15’ to
26’ and improve roadway condition to bring the roadway
into compliance with American Association of State
Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO)
standards. The scope will include removal of the existing
asphalt, widen the road grade to accommodate a 26’ wide
pavement with 4’ gravel shoulders, construct a new 6”
thick Performance Grade (PG)-70-28 asphalt pavement
surface. The pavement surface will be striped to mark
traffic lanes.
1st Street will be used as a haul route for treated
waste from WTP to IDF throughout the processing
life of WTP. The existing roadway surface is in
poor condition, and the roadway width is too narrow
to meet current county, state or national standards
and is therefore unacceptable for the transport of
hazardous waste. Two vehicles cannot meet on this
road without both vehicles having their right wheels
off the asphalt and onto the gravel shoulder. Thus
the traffic safety risk of an accident with injuries or
an environmental spill is significant.
Hanford has a major environmental cleanup
operation required to meet national priorities and
legally binding milestones. This project will
rebuild approximately 0.8 miles of 1st Street within
the 200E Area that is required for transporting
output from WTP to IDF for interim storage. This
roadway will be needed long term in the 200E
Area, does not meet AASHTO minimum width
standards, and has deteriorated to poor condition,
resulting in reduced reliability and safety for both
personnel access as well as material hauling.

L-863, Replace Obsolete Fire
Alarm Control Panels for
MSA General Use Facilities.
This project will replace 28 obsolete fire alarm control
units (FACU) located in MSA controlled buildings across
the Hanford Site. The FACU and their respective
building’s RFAR panel will be replaced and both functions
located in a single, combined FACU/RFAR panel located
in the interior of the building. The RFAR box will be
compatible with the Hanford Site’s Monaco Enterprises
RFAR infrastructure and communications system which
was installed and placed in operation in FY2014. This will
also be consistent with the DOE requirement that each of
the Hanford Site’s RFAR panels be replaced and made
consistent with the new Monaco system.
Each replacement system will be installed in accordance
with HNF-36174, DOE Fire Protection Handbook –
Hanford Chapter and consistent with the applicable codes.
Fire protection devices (e.g. pull boxes, evacuation bells &
strobes, and smoke detectors, etc.) within each building
will be evaluated and replaced as necessary to be
compatible with current codes and the new Monaco FACU
electronic system.
MSA is responsible for the safe and reliable
functioning of all fire protection related systems in
their assigned facilities. A total of 28 MSA
facilities have obsolete FACU that monitor the
status of the fire protection systems in those
facilities, activate evacuation bells/strobes, and
automatically transmit fire alarm signals to the
emergency response organization in accordance
with mandatory DOE requirements.
These obsolete FACUs are well beyond their
lifecycle and are no longer supported by the
manufacturer. System components for repairs are
no longer available from any supplier and system
failures are becoming more frequent, with minimal
to no spare parts available. This life safety and asset
protection system is and is becoming increasingly
unreliable. Not upgrading the facility fire alarm
systems puts Hanford Site employees and critical
MSA infrastructure services at risk due to potential
delays in emergency response.
The failure of the FACU has the potential for
requiring a 24 hour fire watch in order to allow
continued occupancy of the facility.
There are 28 FACUs installed on MSA managed
facilities across the Hanford Site which are
obsolete. These FACUs were installed in the 1980s
time period and the manufacturer has stated they
will no longer be manufacturing these FACU
components. This has made troubleshooting,
maintenance, and repair increasingly difficult and
obtaining replacement parts problematic. Trouble
conditions which originate from the building
FACU are noted as local panel trouble (LPT).
FACU LPT responses increased 9% during the
period from CY2012 to 2013. Preliminary CY2014
data indicated an additional increase in LPT
conditions. The Hanford Fire Department (HFD)
response protocol to fire system trouble conditions
requires the on-duty officer to dispatch firefighters
to investigate any trouble signals received within
30 minutes, representing a significant manpower
expenditure.

EF32, Replace Hazmat &
Mobile Incident Command
Post
Procure and take delivery of a new Hazardous Material
(Hazmat)/command post combination vehicle to replace
Hazmat Apparatus (HO 68D-3892) and HO 68N-1989, the
mobile incident command post. The replacement
Hazmat/Command Post Apparatus shall meet all
applicable NFPA 1901,"Standard for Automotive Fire
Apparatus," requirements. The apparatus shall comply
with all Federal, Washington State, and U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT) laws, regulations, and standards
relating to commercial vehicles and fire apparatus. The
unit shall be able to pass a Washington State motor vehicle
inspection for commercial vehicles.
The apparatus shall be designed with due consideration to
distributing load between the front and rear axles. Weight
balance and distribution shall be in accordance with NFPA
recommendations. The overall apparatus dimensions shall
not exceed 40 feet long, 12.5 feet high, and 10 feet wide.
These maximum measurements shall include the
apparatus, the retractable command lighting pole, mirrors,
and installed equipment.
The requested apparatus replaces both HO 68D-
3892 and HO 68N-1989. HO-68D-3892 is a hazmat
apparatus placed into service in 1990 (27 years old);
68N-1989 is a mobile command center placed into
service in 1998 (19 years old). HNF-59242
identified HO-68D-3892 and 68N-1989 as the
numbers 2 and 3 priorities for replacing equipment
(Ladder 932 is the number 1 priority).
The HFD is contractually responsible to provide
24/7 Site emergency response services; emergency
rescue; emergency medical service and patient
transport; incident command; and hazmat and
chemical/biological/radiological emergency
response (to include decontamination) for the
Hanford Site (MSC: DE-AC06-09RL14728). To
ensure adequate HFD performance in meeting
critical needs, it is important to provide a
satisfactory level of apparatus operability as
recommended in HNF-59242. Delay in following
maximum time replacement schedules as outlined
has a cumulative effect that will lead to increase
costs, operating concerns, risk, and liability.
The Mobile Incident Command Post unit is uniquely
employed as a single point of contact for all Site
emergencies and is imperative to safe operations of
the emergency responders and facility operations
personnel during any incident involving any
conditions potentially hazardous to Site personnel,
the public, and the environment. Mobile command
posts have proven to be one of the most effective
means of managing complex tasks such as large-
scale emergency incidents.
This project also was identified as a unique cost-
savings opportunity. Rather than replacing each of
these special-use pieces of equipment, the HFD has
an option to order a single Hazmat Truck with
Command Post capabilities, reducing both purchase
price and lifetime maintenance costs.
The Hazmat Apparatus (HO 68D-3892) vehicle is
designed for intervention during hazmat incidents.
It contains a command center in the cab or body,
along with an array of storage options for
specialized equipment including computers, radios,
video, and weather monitoring equipment. They
also store specialized equipment including suits,
over-pack drums, and decontamination equipment.
The Mobile Incident Command Post (HO 68N-
1989) must be able to operate reliably and properly.
The Mobile Incident Command Post unit is
uniquely employed as a single point of contact for
all Site emergencies and is imperative to safe
operations of the emergency responders and facility
operations personnel during any incident involving
any conditions potentially hazardous to Site
personnel, the public, and the environment. Mobile
command posts have proven to be one of the most

With emergency operations becoming more
complex and dangerous, especially during cleanup
of hazardous and nuclear sites, it is vital to the
safety of the Site workers, the public, and the
environment that this unit be replaced with a like-
new unit. An apparatus that breaks down at any
time during an emergency operation compromises
the success of the mission and may jeopardize the
safety of the firefighters and Site personnel. To
ensure adequate HFD performance in meeting
critical needs, providing the level of apparatus
operability recommended in HNF-59242 "Hanford
Fire Apparatus Replacement Plan," is essential.

EF26, Replace 65-ft Aerial
Telesquirt HO 68D-3893.
Procure and take delivery of a new 75-foot aerial ladder to
replace the ageing 65-foot ladder being used as a reserve
apparatus by the HFD.
The replacement ladder will have the following attributes
at a minimum:
- 1,500-gallon-per-minute (gpm) pump.
- 500-gallon water tank.
- Capacity for 1000 feet of 5-inch hose.
- 75-foot, heavy-duty ladder device.
- Up to 200 feet of ground ladders.
The apparatus shall comply with all Federal, Washington
State, and U.S. DOT laws, codes, regulations, standards
relating to commercial vehicles and fire apparatus, as well
as NFPA 1901, "Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus,"
requirements for a quint. The unit shall be able to pass a
Washington State motor vehicle inspection for commercial
vehicles.
The apparatus shall be designed with due consideration to
distributing load between the front and rear axles. Weight
balance and distribution shall be in accordance with NFPA
recommendations. The overall apparatus dimensions shall
not exceed 40 feet long, 12.5 feet high, and 10 feet wide.
These maximum measurements shall include the apparatus
(no water in booster tank), the aerial ladder, mirrors, and
installed equipment.
The requested fire engine would replace HO 68D-
3893, which was placed into service in 1994. The
recommended age for replacing this equipment is 15
years according to NFPA; HO 68D-3893 is 23 years
old. HNF-59242 "Hanford Fire Apparatus
Replacement Plan" identified HO 68D-3893 as the
number one priority for equipment needing to be
replaced.
HO 68D-3893 currently is unable to perform its
designed function because it has a damaged ladder
and can only be used to taxi resources and used in
non-aerial operations. The cost of replacing the
ladder is estimated to exceed $50,000, nearly half of
the apparatus' overall market value. If HO 68D-
3893 was replaced it would allow HFD to no longer
utilize its replacement as a reserve aerial apparatus
and instead place the new aerial into full time
service. This would allow HFD to move its second
oldest engine into the role of serving as a reserve
apparatus.
HO 68D-3893 must be able to operate reliably and
properly to respond to and terminate emergency
situations that could threaten the operations,
employees, public, operations, environment, or
property on the Hanford Site. An apparatus that
breaks down at any time during an emergency
operation compromises the success of the mission
and may jeopardize the safety of fire fighters and
Site personnel. To ensure adequate HFD
performance to meet critical needs, providing a
satisfactory level of apparatus operability as
recommended in HNF-59242 "Hanford Fire
Apparatus Replacement Plan," is imperative.

EC04, Replace 110 Ton Truck
Mount Crane with a 150 Ton
GMK Crane - HO 17T 5691
(1989).
This account procures a replacement for a regulated 110
ton crane with a 130 ton RT crane. This unit was last
replaced in FY1989 and should be replaced again in 12
years.
The crane is beyond the service life expectancy. Wear and
stress to the crane and components have caused frequent
equipment failures. Crane safety features are limited and
outdated and repair costs are increasing.
This crane primarily supports Tank Farm Projects. Work
includes replacing intrusive equipment such as mixer and
salt well pumps, instrument probes, waste sampling, as
well as valve and jumper pit upgrades. This crane is a
vital element to the success of the Site’s accelerated
cleanup mission. Without it, significant delays for missed
goals may occur and the vision of the Site could be
jeopardized.
It was rated an X in the January 2006 Asset Condition
Evaluation Report and by contract should be replaced by
FY 2008.
The crane is beyond the service life expectancy.
Wear and stress to the crane and components have
caused frequent equipment failures. Crane’s safety
features are limited and outdated and repair costs are
increasing. This crane primarily supports Tank
Farm projects and because of its size and capacity it
was utilized constantly and has accumulated more
than normal hours for a Hanford site crane. This
crane is a vital element to the success of the Site’s
accelerated clean-up mission, without it, significant
delays or missed goals may occur.
The safety basis for the Tank Farms TFC-ENG-SB-
C-12, Rev A-1, January 2017) defines limits on
tank dome loading to protect structural integrity of
the tanks. These limitations require a stand-off
distance to be established between the mobile crane
footprint and the tank dome. The 110 ton crane
was one of the first larger size hydraulic cranes
purchased to support greater distances from the
work in order to avoid dome loading. The
successful use of this crane has driven the future
size of cranes and proven the theory of moving the
load away from the tank. This 110 ton crane
however was a special version of which only 3
were designed, built, and produced in the United
Kingdom (UK). Parts are not available and
currently the boom has an unfixable defect which
renders the crane unusable. These issues have and
will continue to challenge Tank Farm contractor
costs and schedule due to extended repairs and
downtime while waiting on the availability of other
cranes within the crane pool. Based upon the long-
term Tank Farm mission requirements and
alternative analysis, as well as newer technology in
crane construction, the conclusion is to replace this
crane with a current equivalent GMK 150 Ton all
terrain crane.

L-853, 200E Sewer Flow
Equalization Facility.
The Project will install a Flow Equalization Facility (FEF)
and modify or abandon three selected (2607 E-1A, 2607 E-
8, & 2607 E-13) Large Onsite Sewage Systems (LOSS).
The Project will take the three LOSS locations out of
service by transferring waste to the 200W lagoon. The
project will:
•Construct the FEF within 200E.
•Install lift stations, force main, and/or gravity sewer
pipeline from LOSS locations to tie into FEF.
•Install force main transmission line from FEF to the
200W Lagoon for final storage and treatment.
•Modify 200W Lagoon to accept new distribution source.
•Permanently close three select LOSS locations.
If this project is not performed, the risk of having
system failures and WDOH permit violations due to
sewage spills increases dramatically. The current
sewer system in 200E are at near full capacity.
These systems are showing signs of failure. The
additional septic load is shorting the remaining life
of these systems. This project will eliminate liquid
effluent discharges to the soil column with the
potential to impact groundwater quality. The
independent On-Site Septic (OSS)/LOSS systems
are anticipated to not keep up with the proposed
new office facility additions in support of the clean-
up mission programs.
The independent OSS systems and the LOSS
systems located across the Plateau, are increasingly
becoming more intensive to maintain. The sewer
systems are now in need of more frequent septic
tank pumping and sewer component maintenance.
Holding tanks and failed drain fields, which have
converted septic tanks into holding tanks, are more
commonly used to satisfy the immediate demands.
This practice has captured the attention of
regulators recognizing occasional spikes in monthly
reports for average daily flow rates, or more
commonly recording moisture observed in drain
fields suggesting failure of these aging systems. A
central sewage collection and transmission strategy
is needed to properly manage this impending
burden. The FEF will serve as the central sewage
collection and transmission facility.

S-Plant facilities from the existing 283W Water Treatment
Facility. This section of 12-inch ductile iron piping was
installed in 1960 and runs approximately 780 feet in
length.
Scope includes:
Planning, permitting, and design to replace this run of
pipe.
Excavation and construction of new pipeline,
including new vent and drain valve stations, and
repairs to asphalt roadways that are crossed/disturbed

L-888, Southern Area Fire
Station.
The Southern Area Fire Station needs to accommodate
24/7 operations for the HFD staff and related vehicles. For
planning purposes, the MSA assumes the station will
provide the following:
Vehicle bays to support six emergency response
vehicles. Features that support this objective include
drive-through bays, bypass doors, a drain system, and
an automatically actuated exhaust system. An area to
test, clean, and maintain vehicle equipment will be
located adjacent to the station.
Day shift functional space. This space will include
day-shift administrative offices, a combined training
and conference area, and office for Instrument Test
and Maintenance personnel, and Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990-compliant bathrooms.
Living area to accommodate 24-hour shift personnel,
with a minimum of 10 HFD personnel per shift. This
area will include dormitory rooms and offices for on-
shift personnel, kitchen and dining area,
study/administrative work space, physical training
space, showers and lavatories, and a storage area for
janitorial and laundry supplies.
Support electrical and communication equipment for
continuity of station operation. This includes required
communications equipment, normal electrical service,
backup generator, and provisions for temporary
generator electrical supply.
Storage to support operations with a secure and
controlled environment for medical and bunker gear,
in addition to general storage-specific areas.
Access to Hanford Site roads and parking to
accommodate staff privately owned vehicles.
This facility will be considered an Essential Facility and
will need to meet all current codes and standards.
Unless the Southern Area Fire Station is built, the
strategic evolution of the long-term HFD
configuration to meet the Hanford Site mission
needs will not be possible. This will result in a less
effective configuration and the inability to remove
service and infrastructure related to the 100, 300,
and 400 Area Fire Stations as planned.
The new fire station is necessary to meet the desired
end-state defined in the ISAP. By the end FY2022
HFD will have reduced its footprint down to two
fire stations, including one new fire station located
to serve the Central Plateau and areas south of the
Wye Barricade, will centralize fire and emergency
support for the safety mission on the Hanford Site.
This facility consolidation from four to three, then
to two stations to meet RL’s footprint reduction
strategy, represents a major cost savings opportunity
over the next 7 years and beyond for annual
operating expense budgets.
During the Hanford Site cleanup process, numerous
factors have impacted the scope and timelines of
the Site’s mission. To identify and strategically
plan for and identify the projects necessary to
realign and consolidate HFD services, including
infrastructure and fire station location with the
Site’s MSA conducted numerous facilitated studies.
These studies evaluated fire station infrastructure
and deployment over the course of the MSC. The
current program strategy includes a Northern Area
Fire Station and a Southern Area Fire Station that
would be located south of the Wye Barricade. This
project covers the design and construction of the
Southern Area Fire Station.
The Southern Area Fire Station will provides 24/7
fire protection, emergency medical services,
hazmat response, and special rescue services to
300, 400, and 600 Areas South of the WYE
barricade. In addition, third station will serve
DOE-RL cleanup sites and operating facilities,
including such facilities as 618-10, 618-11, and
building 324 until remediated, the Volpentest
HAMMER Federal Training Center (HAMMER),

system using industry-standard components and methods,
which will provide a more reliable, dependable and faster
system. The hardware aspect of the project will require
removal of the existing RFL transfer trip equipment in the
251W and 251E substations, upgrade of existing line
distance relays with new distance relay models,
completion of fiber optic cable runs to the A6 and A8
substations in conjunction with project L-612 (North Loop
Transmission Line Upgrade Project), and modification of
the transfer trip relaying so it functions as a relay-to-relay
system for operation with BPA.
The 230kV South Loop will be a single point failure
while the L-612 project is cutting over power from
the old line to the new. If a triggering event causes
a fault on the South Loop at or near the A6 or A8
substations during that timeframe, power will be lost
to the Hanford site, which could cause system
instability. System instability, if it occurs, could
cause cascading outages throughout the west coast.
The probability of cascading outages of this
magnitude is very low because of the unlikely
simultaneous occurrence of the planned outage on
the North Loop during a 4 to 6 week window and a
fault on the South Loop; however, this low
probability event has very high consequences.
A higher speed transfer trip system will also lessen
the severity of damage to Hanford equipment during
a 230kV outage, thereby reducing risk.
Regardless of timing of an outage on 230kV system,
if the existing RFL units need to be replaced, MSA
has no ready spares and there is no vendor support;
the system could remain without transfer trip
protection for weeks or months, which would
increase the probability of a catastrophic fault and
the probability and consequence of equipment
damage.
An updated, high-speed transfer trip system is
needed on the 230 kV system to reduce the
probability of causing instability in the system,
which could cause cascading outages on the west
coast, and to reduce the severity of damage to
Hanford equipment. The need for transfer trip
upgrades have been noted in the last two revisions
of the ISAP, and in the 2015 and 2017 EU Master
Plans. BPA, who is performing North Loop
upgrades (L-612), would like L-791 completed
before the Columbia Generating System outage in
May 2019. If L-791 is not completed before the
CGS outage, it will need to wait until the next
opportunity in 2021. Electrical FY19
L-898, 100 Area Mission Crit.
Dist. Feeder Replacement.
Design, rebuild, and reroute the 100 Area electrical
distribution system (lines C9-L3 and C9-L4) to align with
post River Corridor cleanup (current) and future main load
centers at 100K, 100B, and 100D Areas. Includes load
support to Pump and Treat facilities scattered along the
river, BPA Hanford Substation, B Reactor, and river
pumping stations.
100 Area feeders are at risk of failing and not
optimized for current load center distribution. The
two lines, C9-L3 and C9-L4 are made up of many
older lines within each area that were connected
together to get power from the substation to each
load. As such, they do not always follow the most
efficient path to get through the 100 Areas. Lines
C9-L3 and C9-L4 have enduring mission need to
supply power as identified above. They are past
end-of-life and failure would result in outages at a
minimum, and possible range fires, putting
personnel and needed structures at risk.
Execution of this project will ensure that the 100
Area distribution system is configured to meet the
long-term site mission to provide site water, and
fulfill the obligation of providing reliable safe
power to both the 105B Historic Museum and the
BPA Hanford Substation. Reference: HNF-6608,

ET51, (Access Layer) HLAN
Network Upgrade Phase II
ET51 will include the design, procurement and upgrade of
the existing Hanford Local Area Network (HLAN) devices
with new equipment and technology in support of the
Hanford Mission. The project consists of upgrading all
access layer network switches and wireless access points
infrastructure across all Hanford facilities. The project
will replace approximately 1134 network switches and 300
wireless access points in 400 Facilities. The exact
numbers will be determined during the design phase of the
project. Note: The access layer is the lowest level in the
network topology connecting end user devices (computers,
thin clients, laptops, printers, etc) to the network through
either wired or wireless connections.
Key justifications for the upgrades are:
Cisco end-of-support for cyber security
updates on current switches – 10/30/2017.
End-of-Support on Meru Wireless Access
Points has passed.
Increased reliability, performance,
management and security.
Implementation of new advanced
technologies.
Risks for not upgrading the network devices are:
Vendor does not support end-of-life
network devices; therefore, new security
related issues might not be resolved, leaving
HLAN exposed for network attacks.
Increased exposure to new security risks
and threats, which cannot be effectively
thwarted through software upgrades. This
can result in theft of data, denial of service,
and unmitigated malicious behavior both
intentional and unintentional.
Potential risk of rating poorly on
IG/OA/third-party security audit due to
outdated network hardware/technologies.
Devices currently older than expected life
cycle of 5 years.
Increased projected equipment failures.
This is escalated in outlying areas due to
harsh conditions.
Device failures will disable HLAN services and
applications, including Voice over Internet Protocol
(VoIP) phones.
This project will increase reliability, performance
and security; Maintain vendor support for business
critical hardware and software maintenance.
Implementation of new advanced technologies
(including internal IPv6 routing) and security
functionalities; and an updated network is needed
to implement increasing requests from DOE-
Headquarters (HQ) to enhance network security,
mobility and performance at DOE sites.

L-821, Emergency Siren
System Upgrade.
Purchase 4-6 Mobile Sirens to integrate with current
AtHoc system for the 200W Area. Cannibalize old sirens
for spare parts and Utilize decommissioned 200W Area
siren parts for sirens in K/E/300 Area and along the river.
Purchase 4-6 Mobile Sirens to integrate with current

Purchase Mobile Sirens (20 approx. 8-10) as needed to
ensure proper coverage for the remainder of the site.
Deactivate/Eliminate 100K and 400 Area Sirens and
replace with building speaker arrays/TARS if needed.
Following review and collaboration with the
Emergency Management team, it was determined
that, due to the degradation of the current system,
Hanford Site Emergency Alerting System (HSEAS)
is not sustainable for the next 15-20 years without
significant upgrades. The recommended HSEAS
strategy is to utilize current outdoor sirens to failure
and replace the siren system with a flexible mobile
siren system. AtHoc capabilities for outdoor
(building speaker arrays) and indoor alerting will
also need to be developed.
A study was performed to determine the best
alternative (MSA-1201726, Hanford Site
Emergency Alerting System Recommendation).
The alternative selected is: Replace all 44 sirens
with 30 mobile units on a new radio frequency that
have better technology and increased flexibility to
achieve intelligible voice coverage requirements. IT / IM FY20, FY21

L-801, Replace Supervisory
Control And Data
Acquisition (SCADA).
The scope is to replace the current EU SCADA system.
The project will include replacement of: 1) SCADA
hardware [Remote Terminal Units (RTUs), logger printer,
and computer if necessary]; 2) SCADA software including
a Geographical Information System (GIS) module; 3)
dispatcher MIMIC board lamp driver system in the
Dispatch Center; and 4) alarm notification system (auto-
dialer) components at the four substations on the Hanford
Site.
The SCADA system has been without vendor
support since 2013; replacement parts and technical
assistance are no longer available. Life expectancy
with discontinued support depends on in-house
expertise and spares. The system will continue to
run until spare parts have been exhausted or there
are software compatibility issues with future
computer operating system platforms. If L-801 is
not implemented, and the system fails, EU craft
personnel would have to manually perform
switching of high voltage substation breakers and
yard disconnects, placing them in an extremely
hazaardous arc flash boundary. In addition, ongoing
monitoring of mission critical substation equipment
would be required around the clock, including
during regularly scheduled off-shift hours. Without
a functioning SCADA system that monitors and
alarms T&D conditions, outages could last longer
and cause more damage.
Given the complexity of the SCADA system, it is
necessary to consider replacement well ahead of the
expected end of life. Replacement of a SCADA
system of this size could take months to complete.
Procurement is a lengthy process because SCADA
systems are customized and rarely available off the
shelf, and additional months are required for
installation and testing building databases, replacing
hardware, and commissioning the new system.
The SCADA system consists of equipment to
remotely monitor and control Hanford's Electrical
Power T&D system. The SCADA system records
and logs all events, alerts Operations personnel
when conditions become hazardous, and can
remotely and instantaneously operate the high
voltage substation breakers and motor operated
disconnects located in the substation yard, which
minimizes damage to the system, length of outages,
and averts the need to place workers in a hazardous
arc flash boundary. The need for L-801 was
identified in the 2015 and 2016 ISAP and in the FY
2015 EU Master Plan (HNF-6608 Rev 3). While
the system is currently functioning, the need for
replacement is becoming increasingly urgent due to
limited spares and lack of vendor support. Electrical FY20, FY21

EC05, Replace Regulated 33-
Ton Crane With an 80-Ton
Crane – HO-17T-5687
(1984).
This procurement replaces a Rough Terrain (RT) 33-ton
crane (HO-17T-5687) with a RT 80-ton crane RCV. The
smaller capacity older cranes are being replaced with the
newer larger 80-ton capacity RT cranes because of the
encroachment limitations within the Tank Farm projects.
The current crane was procured and placed into service in
1984 and due to lack of safety systems will not meet
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Nuclear Quality Assurance (NQA-1) standards and cannot
be used in the Tank Farms.
Tank Farms increasingly defines limits on tank
dome loading to protect structural integrity of the
tanks requiring cranes be located farther from the
tank dome. These limitations require increasing the
stand-off distance established between the ground
loading of the mobile crane footprint and the tank
dome. The existing small capacity (30 and 33-ton)
older cranes in Hanford’s crane fleet cannot provide
the lifting capacity needed for forecasted loads
while meeting these stand-off requirements. Tank
Farms now requires MSA Crane and Rigging to
comply with requirements of ASM) NQA-1 quality
standard. Newer model cranes provide the best
insurance of compliance and reliability and larger
cranes provide the required safety margins for
extended lifting service. The dependability of this
current crane is not acceptable to meet the
increasing workload that is being placed on it and
the safety features are limited and outdated. These
issues have and will continue to challenge Tank
Farm contractor costs and schedule due to extended
repairs and downtime while waiting on the
availability of other cranes within the crane pool.
Based upon the long-term Tank Farm mission
requirements and collaborative analysis has
concluded that these older cranes should be replaced
with larger, 80-ton capacity units.
Cranes must be reliable and dependable to meet
accelerated schedules. This crane is 34-years-old
and no longer cost effective to operate due to
continuous mechanical breakdowns. The
dependability of the crane is not acceptable and
replacement parts for this crane are becoming
increasingly difficult to obtain. The manufacturer
is no longer in business which removes all support
for future service. This crane is needed to support
accelerated cleanup projects for Washington River
Protection Solutions (WRPS) tank farm projects
and maintenance operations. This crane has been
used extensively for pit and tank intrusive work
inside the 200E and 200W Area tank farms
complex for projects such as facility upgrades and
life extension projects. An inoperative mobile
crane leads to lengthy delays in meeting accelerated
milestones and the contractor’s performance goals.
WRPS will experience greater costs waiting on the
availability of other cranes within the crane fleet
without this crane availability, due to maintenance
repairs and down time.

L-851, Design and Install EW
Pipe to Replace 42” Export
Water Pipe in 100D.
This project replaces 5.62 miles of the 182D 42-inch CCP
export water pipe.
HNF-60063-01, July 2016, "Export Water Pump Pipeline
Hydraulic Analysis" studied the export water system and
concluded that the existing 42-inch line should be replaced
with 30-inch ductile iron.
Ductile iron was chosen as a replacement material because
of its durability and the fact that it can be installed while
the existing pipe continues in use. A quick tie-in
connection will allow for a very short outage period when
service is switched over and the fact that the pipe will be
buried as it is installed will allow for project staging, if
desired.
Project to include:
Preventive/Predictive maintenance requirements and
procedures.
Revise existing or provide new operating procedures.
Operations and maintenance training.
Key Assumptions:
1) This project is dependant on the completion of Project
L-781 (181D Vertical Turbine Pumps, Header, Inst,
Commission.
2) Abandon in place including cut and cap existing export
water line.
3) Pipeline route will parallel existing export water line
route.
4) Alternatives and timing of this project will be evaluated
in an engineering study outlined as needed in the L-781
and L-826 Project Scope Documents.
The 42 in. pipe has been in service since 1944.
While it has not suffered any significant failures to
date it has served 70 years at present. The expected
life cycle for the pipe is estimated at 30 years, and
statistically, a failure becomes more likely each
year.
Failure to complete this project leaves an
antiquated/at risk pipeline with reliability concerns
due to the age of the material. Additionally, failure
to fund this project may have residual impacts to the
sizing of components in associated project (L-781).
A failure of this line would result in a single-point
failure for the entire Hanford Site's water supply.

Project L-794 includes design and construction/renovation
of Station 92 to accommodate additional personnel
reassigned from closed Fire Station 91 and provide
additional space for associated relocated materials and
equipment. The primary renovations include adding men’s
and women’s restrooms, locker rooms, shower facilities,

Key Assumptions:
1) Right sizing the renovations will align with the number
of essential staffing called out in the 2014 Baseline Needs
Analysis in order to meet the site needs for effective
Hazmat, Fire, and Medical response (Hanford Fire
Department Emergency Response Needs Assessment

L-720, Outdoor Lighting
Reconfiguration and
Replacement.
This project will upgrade and replace obsolete street
lighting on the Central Plateau including 200E and 200W
Areas and Route 3 between the two areas by eliminating
unnecessary lighting and upgrading existing lighting
fixtures to higher efficiency lighting.
Much of the lighting in the 200 Areas is of legacy
series that is obsolete, inefficient, at end-of-life, and
is difficult or impossible to procure replacement
parts for. The existing lighting that was surveyed in
the engineering study was found to be inadequate in
regards to safety in many locations. For example,
deficiencies included unlit crosswalks, very low or
no light production by antiquated or inoperable light
fixtures, and widely offset light poles. The upgrade
will result in lower energy and maintenance costs
while improving reliability and reducing the
probability of vehicle accidents and personnel
injuries especially in high traffic areas. Failure to
implement L-720 incurs the following risks: 1) Non-
Compliance with Washington DOT and
Illuminating Engineering Society (IES)
requirements, 2) inability of system to meet current
and future mission needs, 3) increased maintenance
costs, 4) higher energy consumption, 5) higher
probability of failure induced outages, 6) higher
pole fire potential due to failing equipment and 7)
higher risk of vehicle accidents and personnel injury
due to unlit, low production, or non-existent
lighting.
The Central Plateau requires right sized,
functioning street lighting to support current and
future missions. A gap analysis/deficiency is
identified in HNF-6608, "Hanford Site Electrical
Utilities Master Plan," Rev. 3 (Rev. 4 in
development) that describes the need to remove
obsolete lighting not required for regulatory
compliance, personnel safety and security. In
addition, recent removal of the Rattlesnake
Observatory Mission eliminates associated
illumination restrictions on the Central Plateau.
Specific street lighting upgrades to support current
and future Central Plateau mission needs are
identified in HNF-60037, "Evaluation Report for
Central Plateau Exterior Site Lighting," issued June
16, 2016.

L-896, Repair/Replace 6266
Roof.
Install a new roof over the analytical lab building currently
used by MSA Environmental staff. The roof is 20 years
old and starting to leak. There is evidence of failure of
brackets where the roof meets the soffit.
There is an assessment of this roof from November
2002 that identifies several deficiencies in
workmanship including improper anchoring,
inadequate sealing, damage “knee caps,”
maladjusted retaining clips, and misalignment
between roofing panels. The assessment concluded
that thermal expansion would cause the roof to
develop new leaks over time which correlates with
what is being observed.
The mission need to provide environmental
services in a safe, reliable manner is achieved by
maintaining the 6266 North Lab in an operable
condition. The 6266 Building provides the
laboratory and office space necessary to perform
environmental analysis for Hanford Site cleanup
projects. The facility has recently been
experiencing leaks in the roof, allowing for water to
seep into sections of the administrative area. This
poses a risk to the safety of facility personnel,
exposing them to slipping hazards or unsafe
exposure to water possibly dripping onto electrical
equipment. Additional leaks would have the
potential to impact analytical operations, ultimately
putting site cleanup projects at risk if the condition
of the roof worsens without repair or replacement.

L-900 Roof and HVAC
Replacement.
Replace 4 end-of-life facility's Roof and HVAC units with
in-kind types. This proposal addresses turnkey Roof and
HVAC replacement efforts including existing design
verification, procurement, construction preparation and
execution, Roof and HVAC removal, construction/
installation, quality control/acceptance and project close
out. The following are the 4 facilities: 2719EA (200E
Electrical Shop), 609A (200E Fire station), 251W (200W
Substation), 274E (Painter Shop).
DOE Order 430.1B requires, "Real property assets
will be maintained in a manner that promotes
operational safety, worker health, environmental
protection and compliance, property preservation,
and cost-effectiveness while meeting the program
missions."
If nothing is done to replace the HVAC units, they
will reach a catastrophic failure point where
recovery of the existing system is not feasible and
maintenance staffs are left spending long hours
during adverse work conditions attempting to
acquire make-shift solutions to regain the system
operations. Parts are very limited so acquiring
spares can take considerable time and money. In
many cases, manufacturer’s parts are no longer
available leaving the maintenance staff no other
choice but to scavenge parts from other broken
systems or fabricate components. As these systems
continue to fail, the time required to repair escalates
to a point where all of the HVAC resources are
consumed by these high priority reactionary service
requests. These situations can have a temporary but
serious impact to operations. None of the options
are desirable or cost effective.
In the most extreme cases when these systems fail,
building occupant’s health can be affected by
working is sustained high heat or cold office work
situations. During these situations, stop work or
suspended work conditions are possible. Facility
management is challenged with suspending work or
finding suitable alternate facilities to relocate
personnel until the work conditions are returned to
acceptable levels. These situations often generate
the need for costly over-time thereby exceeding
budget allowances from these unplanned events.
If nothing is done to replace the roofs, they will
continue to deteriorate at an increasing rate. As all
4 of the roofs exceed their design life the risk of
failure significantly increases. In the case of 609A
and 251W failure has already occurred and there are
active roof leaks in these facilities. This risk puts a
burden on already constrained operational budgets.
In extreme situation, building occupant's health can
be affected by continual leaking roof and HVAC
failures. Water permeates through the roof decking
and enters the building damaging ceiling insulation,
These 4 facilities are key in MSA's ability to
provide infrastructure support to other Hanford

Replacements.
Replace 26 end-of-life general purpose facility membrane
roofs with in-kind roofing type. If possible, utilize a
pitched slope on flat roofs and install roof drain spouts as
needed to increase drainage, enhance the system lifecycle
of the roof system and reduce the chance of leaks in the
future. This proposal addresses turnkey roof replacement
efforts including: design verification, procurement,
construction preparation and execution, existing roof
removal, construction/installation, quality
control/acceptance and project close out. The following
are the 26 facilities: MO407, MO413, MO292, MO256,

DOE Order 430.1B requires, “Real property assets
will be maintained in a manner that promotes
operational, safety, worker health, environmental
protection and compliance, property preservation,
and cost-effectiveness while meeting the program
missions.”
The roofs on these facilities are well beyond their
designed life. These roofs are highly prone to
failure and require significant maintenance attention
to patch leaks. As the roof’s age exceeds 90% of
their expected life, the roof deck degrades to a point
where repairs become much more difficult if not
impossible without total surface replacement.
Eventually the increasing maintenance costs can
exceed the cost of a new roof. Real Estate Services,
working in conjunction with MSA Maintenance
Services’ subject matter experts, identified MSA
facilities with beyond end-of-life roofs that are in
very poor condition. Review of lifecycle data
combined with actual field verification identified
roofs that are in the worst condition compared to all
MSA facilities.
If nothing is done to replace the roofs, they will
continue to deteriorate at an increasing rate. In
several cases, the roof material is no longer
repairable, leaving the maintenance staff no other
choice but to replace large sections of the roof at a
time adding to already constrained operational
budgets.
In extreme cases, building occupant’s health can be
affected by continual leaking roofs. Water
permeates throughout the roof decking and enters
the building damaging ceiling insulation, ceiling
tile, light fixtures, walls, carpet, and equipment.
Over time, mold begins to grow which can become
a serious health hazard. During these situations,
stop work or suspended work conditions are
possible. Building occupants are forced to find
alternate work locations until the work conditions
are returned to acceptable safe conditions. These
situations often generate the need for costly over-
time thereby exceeding budget allowances from
these unplanned events.
These 26 facilities are key in MSA’s ability to
provide infrastructure support to the OHC. These
facilities are required to house management,
engineering, operations, planners, administrative
and technical staff plus key networking equipment
required to provide logistical support to mission
cleanup efforts. No alternatives were considered

surface area is approximately 70,000 square yards. The
scope will include surface preparation, crack seal, patching
of potholes and edges as needed. Clean surface to allow a
good adhesion of the chip seal by removing all loose
gravel and debris. The pavement surface will need to be

L-852, Design and Install EW
Pipe to Replace 42” pipe at
100B.
This project replaces 4.28 miles of the 182B 42-inch CCP
export water pipe.
HNF-60063-01, July 2016, "Export Water Pump Pipeline
Hydraulic Analysis" studied the export water system and
concluded that the existing 42-inch line should be replaced
with 30-inch ductile iron.
Ductile iron was chosen as a replacement material because
of its durability and the fact that it can be installed while
the existing pipe continues in use. A quick tie-in
connection will allow for a very short outage period when
service is switched over and the fact that the pipe will be
buried as it is installed will allow for project staging, if
desired.
Project to include:
Preventive/Predictive maintenance requirements and
procedures.
Revise existing or provide new operating procedures.
Operations and maintenance training.
Key Assumptions:
1) This project is dependant on the completion of Project
L-826 (181B Vertical Turbine Pumps, Header, Inst,
Commission.
2) Abandon in place including cut and cap existing export
water line.
3) Pipeline route will parallel existing export water line
route.
4) Alternatives and timing of this project will be evaluated
in an engineering study outlined as needed in the L-781
and L-826 Project Scope Documents.
The 42 in. pipe has been in service since 1944.
While it has not suffered any significant failures to
date it has served 70 years at present. The expected
life cycle for the pipe is estimated at 30 years, and
statistically, a failure becomes more likely each
year.
Failure to complete this project leaves an
antiquated/at risk pipeline with reliability concerns
due to the age of the material. Additionally, failure
to fund this project may have residual impacts to the
sizing of components in associated projects (L-826).
A failure of this line would result in a single-point
failure for the entire Hanford Site's water supply.
The export water system provides all source water
to the 100 Area and 200 Area Plateau. The
requirements for water are specified within HNF-
5828, Hanford Site Water System Master Plan.
This project will provide a more reliable water
supply to support site cleanup operations in the 100

were constructed in 1952 and currently supply PW to B-
Plant. The section is made up of approximately 2,200 feet
of 10-in, 170 feet of 8-in, and 380 feet of 6-in nominal
diameter underground pipe.
Scope includes:
- Planning, permitting, and design to replace these
sections of pipe.
- Excavation and construction of new pipeline, including
new vent and drain valve stations, new sectionalizing/
isolation valves, new thrust blocks, and repairs to asphalt
roadways that are crossed/disturbed during construction.
- Demolition as needed and abandonment in place of the
old line.
- Tie-in and testing of new line.
Assumptions include:
- Design/construction activities are general services

- Work will be performed by a fixed price construction
contract (performed by construction forces).
- Construction costs will be re-estimated at completion of
30% design milestone, as current estimate is a Record
order of Magnitude (ROM) with escalation.
Safe and reliable PW supply is extremely important
to the timely execution of the Hanford Site mission.
During recent years, Water Utilities has experienced
several failures with aging pipes. Failure to upgrade
the aging 6-in, 8-in, and 10-in water lines which
supplies PW to B-Plant and Waste Encapsulation
and Storage Facility (WESF) would result in
complete loss of PW supply, due to the single point
failure and no looped configuration to the facilities.
Without replacement, the existing water lines will
continue to experience deterioration and/or an
increased chance of failure. There are extremely
high maintenance costs associated with the
substandard water lines due to failures being
handled on an emergency basis. There is the
potential for a catastrophic single point failure that
could force the shut down of facilities.
The Hanford Site PW system is owned by the
Department of Energy, under the management of

Baltimore Ave. Atlanta Ave. to B Farm” Length =
1,120’, Width = 32’.
The total surface area of the pavement treatment is
approximately 72,470 square yards.
The roads will be refurbished by patching potholes and
pavement edge breakage, applying 2 inch Hot Mixed
Asphalt (HMA) over a geotextile fabric, and painting lane,
shoulder and stopping areas. The 2’ to 4’ wide road
shoulders will be built up with new crushed gravel to
match finished asphalt grade. Traffic Control will be
needed due to construction activities limiting traffic to one
lane roads.
The roadways included in this project are all needed
as long term primary haul and commute routes to
complete cleanup and tank farm closure. The
current condition of the project sections of roadways
are “fair” condition but are deteriorating due to
heavy hauling loads and traffic volume. 4th St., 12th
St., and Baltimore Ave. support Tank Farm waste
remediation, operations, WTP operations and
closure, canyon disposition of PUREX, and
provides access to infrastructure and facility base
operations. Without this project the roads will
continue to degrade to the point that a much more
expensive rebuild/reconstruct will be required, in
the meantime becoming unsafe and affecting
mission operations.
DOE-RL and DOE-ORP require reliable and safe
roadways with the 200E Area for the transport of
personnel, material, equipment, supplies, and
cleanup debris; and 4th St. and 12th St. cannot fulfill
the need without improvements being completed to
the asphalt surface. These roadways provide access
to the Fleet Maintenance and General Services
shops, Hanford Patrol Headquarters, access to 200
East B, BX, and BY Tank Waste Cleanup, 200E
Pump and Treat Facilities, disposition of PUREX
and ancillary facilities, and provide access from
waste sites within the 200E Area to the
Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility
(ERDF) disposal site. These roadways need to be
maintained safe and reliable as long term access
within 200E and are critical to the successful
completion of these cleanup components (Hanford
Site Roads Master Plan, HNF-59706, March 2016).

L-879, Overlay Cypress
Street, Route 4S to George
Washington Way Extension.
Project L-879 will apply a 2 inch asphalt overlay over a
layer of geotextile fabric to Cypress Street from Route 4
South to George Washington Way Extension. This
roadway is approximately 2,400 feet long with an asphalt
pavement 52' wide with 4 foot gravel shoulders on each
outside edge as needed. The scope will include patch
areas as needed, clean surface to allow a good adhesion of
the geotextile fabric and asphalt mix by removing all loose
gravel and debris. The pavement surface will need to be
marked to allow the striping of traffic lanes post overlay.
Cypress Street is now one of only two main
accesses into and out of the 300 Area, and will
support Groundwater, site infrastructure needs, and
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).
Without this project the road will continue to
degrade, become unsafe, impact mission operations,
and cost significantly more to rebuild/reconstruct.

The 6608 Evaporative Lagoon and Sludge
Treatment Facility has a long-term mission
providing waste water treatment on the 200 Area
Plateau. The facility was designed without service
water, neither PW nor RW. This presents a problem
in regards to plant maintenance and operations. The
lagoons have a minimum volume requirement for
protection of the liner, in addition to operation of the
aerators. The addition of make-up water is needed
under certain low flow operating conditions. With
the evaporative capability of the Lagoons, especially
during high evaporative months, it is difficult to
keep sufficient water in the lagoons to maintain
integrity of the liner system; i.e. hold the liner down.
There is also a need for PW make-up to the 6608
Facility for operational use as well as personnel
needs. Mission need is documented in a 2013
vulnerability assessment, HNF-54656, Maintenance
Vulnerabilities – Electric Utilities, Water and Sewer
Utilities, and Waste Sampling and Characterization
Facility, referenced in HNF-6612, Rev. 5, Hanford
Site Sewer System Master Plan, issued May 2016.
Not providing permanent PW and RW supply to
6608 will impact the ability to perform biosolids
processing affecting mission operations. PW is
necessary for the safety shower in the facility. RW
is necessary to maintain proper water levels in the
lagoons. The existing temporary RW line is subject
to freezing and damage every year due to its
exposure above ground. 6608 will be the primary
sanitary wastewater treatmen facility on site as
many smaller septic systems will be consolidated

preparation, crack seal, patching of potholes and edges as
needed. Clean surface to allow a good adhesion of the
chip seal by removing all loose gravel and debris. The
pavement surface will need to be marked pre chip to allow
the striping of traffic lanes post chip seal.
State and County maintenance organizations
recommend that roads be chip sealed every 5 to 7
years to provide a new wearing surface on the
roadway, seal cracks to prevent water from
penetrating the road base, to provide a highly skit-
resistant surface, and extend the life of the asphalt
between overlays. The cost of chip seals is
approximately 20% of the cost of a pavement
overlay.
If the road conditions are allowed to significantly
deteriorate, it can become unsafe, impact mission
operations, and it is likely that the roads would
require an overlay rather than just a chip seal. This
would result in a much higher cost and a longer
impact to traffic flow during construction activities.

neutral to the normal 13.8kV electrical distribution service
feeders to improve system grounding and safety of
operating personnel. New neutral wire will be installed on
existing poles with required clearance below the energized
13.8kV conductors. The 200 Areas are constructed with a
3 wire electrical distribution system. With this type of
design, an occurrence or fault on the system, depending on
the location of the fault, may or may not trip the protective
devices installed on that circuit. Because of the high
resistance of dry, rocky soil, if an aerial line were to fall to
the ground, protective fuses may not blow and/or the
protective relays on the substation switchgear breaker may
see the fault as a “new load” and not trip.
The 4th wire is being installed in the 200E Area as
scope within a different project. This project will
address the needs of the 200W Area. Under the
right circumstances, faults on the 13.8kV electrical
systems have resulted in energized aerial lines
falling to the ground and remaining in service. In
addition to causing grass fires, this type of scenario
has and could continue to place responding
personnel at risk.
The various systems, facilities, and plants
supporting the Hanford Site cleanup mission will
require safe, reliable power over the next 40-50
years. This includes the FY2020 Vision, Near-
Term Vision, Long-Range Vision, and into the
Long-Term Stewardship Site Mission Time
categories. Installation of the 4th wire will improve
the safety of the 13.8kV electrical distribution. Electrical FY24

Electrical Conversion.
This project phases out three remaining 2400V electrical
distribution circuits from the 200E and 200W Areas,
rebuilds replacement circuits to the site 13.8kV standard,
or if more suitable, identifies alternate sources for loads.
If the 2400 volt electrical distribution system (that is
old and obsolete) is not upgraded, the frequency and
duration of outages in the Central Plateau will
continue to increase. The outages will impact one
or more of the following systems depending on
which of the 3 circuits goes down: 1) Route 4S
lighting, 2) air monitors, 3) instrumentation, 4) truck
station and 5) the dry waste storage and the Central
Waste Complex. Replacement parts for these
systems can be difficult to find, expensive to
purchase, and have long procurement lead times,
potentially jeopardizing operability of the above
listed systems for extended periods of time creating
potential safety issues and/or regulatory violations.
Reliable power is needed in the Central Plateau for
the next 40 to 50 years. Specific systems/facilities
impacted by this project are listed below.
Replacing the obsolete and unreliable 2400V
systems with 13.8kV power is specified as an
action in the EU Master Plan (HNF-6608 Rev 4)
and the ISAP. Electrical FY24

Communications Upgrade:
EP, HFD, & Patrol.
This project includes design, procurement and upgrades to
the 911 Call Taking, Computer Aided Dispatching, and
Zetron consoles and the supporting systems that support
critical Hanford environmental and life safety services
provided at the dispatch centers. The project provides new
hardware, firmware, software and labor to upgrade the
existing solutions, including the Zetron consoles to the
latest version in the POC at 2721E, 2701ZA; the HFD at
609A and Emergency Operations Center (EOC) at 825
Jadwin; making the console systems compatible with
current IP and dispatch center technologies and that are
maintainable through the Hanford lifecycle.
System capabilities may include a computer integrated
touch screen based integrated communication solutions
that are software controlled and managed, replacing
multiple physical consoles, making the operator more
efficient in command and control, call processing, and
dispatching of critical resources in response to incidents
related to life safety, fire, security, site emergencies, or
others that involve the Hanford Patrol, Hanford Fire,
Emergency Management, and other support agencies.
Enhanced mapping services are anticipated to be
implemented or supported within the updated solutions
provided. The upgraded system will be compatible with
current radio technology deployed at the time of
installation.
The integrated consoles and infrastructure will be
compatible with current communications and other
technologies, including operating systems, mobility, and
other key technologies deployed on site at the time of
implementation.
Life safety and communication requirements
defined by NFPA and the MSA Mission make the
solutions mission essential. Without critical
response, communication, and command and
control processes in place the MSA will not be in
compliance with the MSC requirements to perform
these functions and could be liable for loss of life or
not providing proper response capabilities in
response to an injury. Environmental management
also requires tools to properly manage and mitigate
events and hazards
Function and service is a MSC Section C
requirement. Project identified in ISAP and
supports ISAP action to migrate to a centralized

ET57B, HLAN Network
Upgrade – IPv6.
This project scope is the design, procurement and
implementation of application upgrades to the Hanford
Federal Cloud (HFC) meet OMB IPv6 requirements. This
project will enable IPv6 across all network devices and
perform upgrades to internal client applications to meet the
IPv6 compliance standard for public/external facing
applications and services.
Key justifications for the project are:
Government compliance of OMB M-05-22.
To implement new technologies (IPv6) and
security functionalities.
Risks for not upgrading the network devices are:
Non-compliance with government
mandates.
Potential risk of rating poorly on
IG/OA/third-party security audit due to
outdated network hardware/technologies.
External websites/services will not be
available to IPv6 only users.
Additional Benefits:
IPv6 provides valuable benefits to agencies by
facilitating an improvement in operational
efficiencies and citizen services. Many of these
benefits will not be realized until running IPv6
natively. Examples of IPv6 benefits include:
Non-compliance with government mandates.
Potential risk of rating poorly on
IG/OA/third-party security audit due to
outdated network hardware/technologies.
External websites/services will not be
available to IPv6 only users.
Government compliance to OMB M-05-22 and the
Memorandum for Chief Information Officers of
Executive Departments and Agencies, Subject
Transition to IPv6, September 28, 2010.
OMB M-05-22, Transition to IPv6, states that
government networks must upgrade internal client
applications that communicate with public Internet
servers and supporting enterprise networks to
operationally use native IPv6. In support of the
memorandum, this project will deploy IPv6 routing
(dual stack), IPv6 firewall rules, IPv6 addressing to
clients and servers, and survey custom applications
that would affect default operating system
addressing schemes throughout the HFC.

L-572, Fire Systems
Maintenance Consolidation.
The scope will consist of constructing a 26,000-square-
foot pre-engineered building and related appurtenances to
the following specifications:
•Site grading –the facility site will be approximately 1.4
Acres (60,000 square feet).
•The new fire service maintenance facility will be able to
connect to the existing onsite sewer septic system serving
the 200 Area Fire Station Complex with a 4-inch-diameter
connection 150 feet long.
•Water from an established water service grid will be
available within 200 lineal feet of the facility location.
Install a 12-inch-diameter pipeline from the water service
grid to serve the fire station. The water line installation
shall include the installation of 1 fire hydrant and a 6-inch
connection to the building fire sprinkler system.
•13.8-kVa electrical power will be available within 200
lineal feet of the facility location. Assume the installation
of a 3-phase, 100-kVa, pad-mounted transformer.
•The facility will be connected to telephone and HLAN
telecommunications systems.
•Construct a two-story, pre-engineered metal building.
The facility will be approximately 26,000 square feet in
area. A draft floor plan has been developed. The eave
height shall be 19-feet to allow a floor-to-overhead
obstacle (e.g., lights, ductwork) of 15 feet.
•2400 sq. feet will be used for the Respiratory Protection
Program, the area will include secure storage, bench space
for testing and maintenance, and process air for operations.
•The facility will equipped with HVAC systems, fire
suppression system, sanitary hot and cold water,
change/rest rooms, electrical outlets for tools, and
compressed air system.
The HFD Inspection Testing and Maintenance
(IT&M) division utilizes three crafts to execute its
mission: firefighters (day-shift), electricians, and
pipefitters.
All three craft groups are currently located in
separate facilities.
• Pipefitters are located in MO-388.
• Electricians are located in 2721-EA.
• FSM Administrative offices are in MO-286.
• The firefighters are at the Station 92 HFD
campus Administration Building at MO-292.
• SCBA Respiratory Protection Program fire
fighters are located in 609-G.
• Fire Extinguisher Maintenance firefighters
are located in 609-G.
This arrangement is not ideal in terms of such
activities as work planning, craft continuity,
meetings, pre-jobs, resource use.
MO-388, the pipefitter craft trailer, was a temporary
installation for the Heliport construction (2721-EA)
and was held over and used for the Patrol mission.
This building's condition reflects constant use at
maximum capacity for 35 years. Historical fiscal
constraints and frugal budget management have
resulted in the need for extensive rehab work to
continue occupancy, and the cost/benefit ratio of
such an investment would be questionable at best.
The 609G Building was originally manufactured by
Blazer Manufacturing in 1983 and installed on site
as MO411 for usage with the *BWIP1 Project. The
initial acquisition cost for the unit was $290,834.
The unit became excess and available when the
project shutdown and was subsequently relocated to
the current location. The building was renovated in
1990 and re-numbered as 609G. According to the
HFD Briefing Book Scope Definition, prepared by
DynCorp for MSA, the planned use of the building
was only projected through September 30, 2014.
2721-EA and MO-292 are generally in good
condition and appropriate for current use.
The Fire Service Maintenance organization, as well
as the HFD administrative staff, currently utilize a
number of temporary facilities spread over
approximately 2 miles. This building would
consolidate these functions in a central location
adjacent to building 609-A (Station 92).
Consolidating these functions in a facility designed
for them would improve the Fire Service
Maintenance organization's efficiency, reduce the
need for travel between facilities and improve
communication. This building would eliminate the
need for MO-292 (HFD Admin), MO-286 (FSM
office area), 2721EA (FSM shop), MO-388
(change facility), reducing the U.S. Department of
Energy's footprint on Site.

L-644, Construct Biological
Control Facility
Conceptual Design Report /
Definitive Design &
Construction.
This project consists of the Biological Controls Facilities
Modifications and the 2713WC Parking Lot Improvements
previously planned as a separate project, L-653. The
scope of Project L-644, Biological Controls Facilities
Modifications, now includes two new buildings (for
vehicle storage and admin/change room with a covered
truck area), the enlargement and paving of the fenced
storage area surrounding the facility, and provision of
paving and drainage of the equipment parking area at the
2713WC Building.
The existing building is 50+ years old, has roof
leaks and mold in the change rooms. It lacks a ramp
access for employees with disabilities. The building
has gone through several retro fits to make it
compliant with its housed groups. Construction of a
new facility would eliminate three buildings (275W,
201W, and 2203E) and three office spaces in 2751E.
The new building would also satisfy a safety
logbook item that addresses a need to house the spot
sprayer trucks during winter months due to issues
with hard starting of the pony motors. Chemical
inventories would be housed under one roof instead
of in three different locations.
MSA provides biological control services to control
and minimize noxious weeds, industrial weeks, and
other vegetation and animal pests to ensure the
protection of Hanford Site workers and the public
from contamination spread by biological vectors.
A facility is required for biological controls that
allows proper storage of chemical controls and for
decontamination of equipment and personnel. This
function supports the cleanup mission at Hanford
through Integrated Safety Management System
(ISMS) by providing for worker and public health
and safety, implementing controls against disease,
envenomation, stings and radiological
contamination exposure. It is a legal requirement
in the MSC to provide basic service in weed and
best control; lack of a proper biological control
facility hinders efficient, timely and safe response
to biological threats as well as increases risk of
exposure to workers and the public.

Project L-859, “Reconstruct 10th St. and Cooper Ave.,”
will rebuild 10th St. from Beloit Ave. to MO 259, and
Cooper Ave. from SX Farm Entrance to 16th St. in the
200W Area. The total length of the project is
approximately 0.84 miles with widths varying from 23’ to
36’. The total surface area of the new asphalt will be
approximately 11,900 square yards. The scope will
include removal of the existing asphalt, construct a new 6”
thick crushed rock base course with a top course of
crushed rock and apply a 2” thick PG-64-28 asphalt
pavement surface. The pavement surface will be striped to
mark traffic lanes.
10st St. will be used as a haul route for treated waste

The length of these roads is approximately 5.26 miles and
the pavement width of these roadways varies from 20 to 66
feet in width with 4 foot gravel shoulders on each outer
edge. The total pavement surface area is approximately
91,450 square yards. The scope will include surface
preparation, crack seal, patching of potholes and edges as
needed. Clean surface to allow a good adhesion of the
chip seal by removing all loose gravel and debris. The
pavement surface will need to be marked pre-chip seal to
allow the striping of traffic lanes post chip seal.
State and County maintenance organizations
recommend that roads be chip sealed every 5 to 7
years to provide a new wearing surface on the
roadway, seal cracks to prevent water from
penetrating the road base, to provide a highly skid-
resistant surface, and extend the life of the asphalt
between overlays. The cost of chip seals is
approximately 20% of the cost of a pavement
overlay.
If the road conditions are allowed to significantly
deteriorate, it can become unsafe, impact mission
operations, and it is likely that the roads would
require an overlay rather than just a chip seal. This
would result in a much higher cost and a longer
impact to traffic flow during construction activities.
DOE-RL and DOE-ORP require reliable and safe

lanes with wide shoulders consisting of the existing
outside traffic lanes. The existing interior lanes and
median will be pulverized and the existing asphalt mixing
into the top 8” of the existing base, grading and
compacting the base, place and compact crushed top
surfacing and pave with 3” thick asphalt. The finished
roadway pavement will be 30 feet wide with 13’ wide
shoulders on each side to maintain the current roadway
width to facilitate movement of reactor vessel transporters
on this route. The work is described as follows:
Remove 116 delineators.
Make longitudinal cuts in the existing asphalt roadway
to allow roadway to allow for the center 30’ to be
rebuilt as a two lane highway. The existing asphalt for
the outer lanes will be left in place as the roadway
shoulders to provide adequate roadway width for
reactor vessel transport.
Pulverize the existing asphalt in the center section of
the roadway and mix into the top 8” of the base.
Assume existing asphalt is 2” thick.
Grade and compact subgrade. Construct transitions at
each end of this section of roadway to connect to
existing 4 lane roadways. Assume the length of the
transitions at each end to be ¼ mile long.
Place and compact 3” of crushed top course gravel
(assume 56’ wide). Grade new roadbed so that the
grade of the completed asphalt matches the grade of
the existing asphalt at the shoulders.

L-887, Overlay Route 6 (Pit
24 to SR 240).
Project L-887 will apply a 2 inch asphalt overlay over a
layer of geotextile fabric to Route 6 from the Pit 24
entrance to State Route SR-24. This roadway is
approximately 2.6 miles long with an asphalt pavement
width of 19’ for a total surface area of approximately
28,820 square yards. There are 2 foot gravel shoulders on
each edge of the roadway. The scope will include patch
areas as needed, clean surface to allow a good adhesion of
the geotextile fabric and asphalt mix by removing all loose
gravel and debris. Install the geotextile fabric and place 2”
of PG 64-28 asphalt. Roadway widening will need to
occur to bring the roadway width up to 24’ total. Add
approximately 2” of gravel 4’ wide to the road shoulders to
match the finished asphalt grade. The pavement surface
will need to be marked to allow the striping of traffic lanes
post overlay.
The existing asphalt on Route 6, between the Pit 24
entrance and SR-24 is currently the only route that
provides direct access to the B Reactor National
Historic Site without having to pass through active
areas of the Hanford Site. Without this project, the
existing road will continue to degrade, become
unsafe, affect mission operations, and cost
significantly more to rebuild/reconstruct.
This road project will support the Manhattan
National Park by restoring Hanford land for access

L-878, 6088 Parking Lot. This project will grade a 250 ft. by 500 ft. area east of the
HAMMER Field Exercise Building (6088) Building. It
will also gravel a 250 ft. by 260 ft. section of the graded
area to provide parking for the 6088 Building.
Continued limited Hanford use of this large federal
investment when not being used to support
Department of State programs.
This building was funded by the Department of
State for their international border security training
that occurs at HAMMER. The small parking lot at
this building is adequate for their training programs
where the students are transported on a bus. The
building is made available to support Hanford
Training classes and events when not being used to
support Department of State activities. The parking
lot is not large enough to support larger classes and
events which limits the benefit to the Hanford Site.
A large parking lot adjacent to this building will
dramatically increase its usefulness to Hanford.

L-649, MO414 Equipment
Parking and Staging Area.
The L-649 Parking Lot Improvements Project will provide
for the construction of a paved parking area to the north of
the MO414 office building. The primary objective of this
project is to provide a central location for parking the
various pieces of transportation equipment and to prevent
any contamination of the soil column from accidental leaks
or spills from the equipment.
The overall scope for a General Plant Project (GPP) is
defined under two WBS/CACN codes (expense and
capital). This narrative encompasses the entire project
scope. The capital portion will be transferred to
Completed Plant and Equipment as an asset and the
expense is generally minor work scope that supports
engineering and construction activities.
If this project is not completed, the potential for
petroleum leaks to the environment is great. This
parking lot also includes fuel trucks and heavy
equipment which are more prone to leakage. This
building also houses 70+ employees that use this
parking lot, besides all the Commercial Motor
Vehicles (CMVs) and heavy equipment, and the
uneven surface has more potential for slips, trips,
and falls.
DOE-RL requires reliable and safe parking areas
within the 200E Area. Additionally, an integral
part of the Environmental Management System
(EMS) requires MSA to improve environmental
performance and prevent pollution. The L-649
Parking Lot Improvements Project will provide for
the construction of a paved parking area to the

The ongoing cleanup missions on the Central
Plateau dictate the need to provide access controls
at site vehicle entry points to restrict public access
and meet site security, transportation security, and
emergency response requirements. To support
these access controls, Hanford Patrol staffs the
three site vehicle barricades and backup emergency
power is provided for critical equipment, including
lighting and communications, to provide for 24-
hour operations. The backup emergency generators
at the vehicle barricades are reaching their end of
useful life and their capacity is inadequate to
provide continuity of power to the habitability
systems (building HVAC) relied upon by the
Hanford Patrol staff. As part of the replacement
strategy for these generators, it is recommended
that they be upgraded in capacity to ensure
continuous operations of the HVAC systems.

L-810, Install Paint Booth in
New Facility (Was - Auto

Replacement).
Replace the Fleet Maintenance Auto body Paint Booth in

As part of the ISMS, and the EMS, MSA’s
Environmental Policy requires us to improve
environmental performance, prevent pollution,
minimize waste, and conserve resources.
Additionally, ISMS requires the identification of
hazards and the development and implementation of
hazard controls. The failure of the current auto
body paint booth exposes personnel and the
environment to hazards specific to paint products.
This situation conflicts with the satisfactory
compliance of MSA’s ISMS and EMS policies.
The existing paint booth in 4722C is deteriorated to
the point of failure and is an old water separator
design. This creates a waste stream due to the
chemicals inherent in painting. A new booth is
already procured but a new facility outside of the
400 Area has not been located. Once a facility is
built of located, this new booth will require
installation. The environmental reviews are

Facility can be implemented. Completion of these two
projects will allow fleet to fully vacate the 400 Area and
have a consolidated operation on the plateau in support of
the 2028 vision.
Fleet services will continue to use inadequate 400
Area Facilities.
MSA Fleet Services provides critical maintenance
service to a significant portion of the entire
Hanford fleet, including emergency and security
vehicles/equipment. The location of the 2711E
Fleet Maintenance is also critical to the FY2028
Vision and the future support of WTP. If Fleet
Services cannot provide safe and efficient services
due to lack of shop space, the results could be
catastrophic. OHC milestones and Performance
Incentives could be threatened, and this raises the
concern that some customers may continue to use a
vehicle or piece of equipment that is in need of
service, increasing safety risks. Lack of sufficient
space also puts Fleet Services maintenance
personnel in precarious situations. Maintenance of
the existing facilities is becoming a financial
burden which increases rates to all users of Fleet
Services. The L-845 project scope is under
discussion during FY2017 to possibly rescope as a
single consolidated complex project of larger size,

L-811, 2711EA & 273E Fire
Barrier Welding Areas.
Install sheet metal in both the 2711EB and 273E
Buildings. The sheet metal will provide protection from
fire in these areas from welding, grinding and other hot
work activities.
The addition of these fire barriers for welding and
hot work activities would remove the need for fire
watch personnel. Under our current conditions, a
second person is required to support hot work
activities to meet Hanford site fire code. This
doubles the cost to the job currently being
performed and removes personnel from other job
assignments. With reductions in personnel, support
for fire watch is not always available.
Fleet maintenance provides a full spectrum of
vehicle and equipment maintenance for Hanford’s
vehicle and equipment fleet supporting the cleanup
projects. A number of the maintenance services
provided include the need to perform hot work
(welding, grinding, cutting, etc.). Because of the
lack of adequate fire rated barriers within the Fleet
Maintenance facility, the performance of hot work
activities requires the use of a fire watch.
Construction of fire rated barriers can allow for the
use of a fire watch. Construction of fire rated
barriers can allow for the elimination of the fire
watch while providing an equivalent level of fire
safety. This change reduces vehicle maintenance
costs while also increasing resource flexibility
within Fleet by allowing the fire watch employee to
conduct other revenue generating work.

L-813, Concrete Pads -
211ED and 212ED Tents.
Fleet Maintenance has two tents located in the 2711E
Parking Lot. The tents provide additional space to perform
equipment repair and maintenance. Tents, 211ED and
212ED are 60 foot long and 30 feet wide. Currently the
floor under the tent is half concrete and half gravel. The
existing concrete pad is below grade allowing rain water to
pool inside tents. The two new concrete pads will be 40
foot wide, 80 feet long, and 8 inches thick. The tents will
need to be disassembled from their existing location and
moved to the new concrete pads.
Continue to use tents that leak rain water, creating a
slipping hazard for the mechanics/oilers. Having to
work in gravel areas that require the mechanics/oiler
to crawl on their hands and knees can cause injuries.
Fleet Maintenance provides crane maintenance to
the Hanford Crane and Rigging organization.
These cranes support many high priority cleanup
projects. A majority of the maintenance is
completed in two large tents on the central plateau.
These two tents need concrete pads to eliminate
flooding that occurs due to rain water and snow
melt coming in under the edges and settling inside
the tent area as they will be raised 4-6” above
grade. Additionally, it will provide a significantly
improved walking and working surface. These
tents will continue supporting crane and
heavy/large equipment maintenance, thus requiring

L-814, 2711EA Insulation
Repairs.
The International Building Code (IBC), National Electrical
Code (NEC), plus Washing State supplements to IBC and
NEC requires insulation performance to meet national and
state objectives for energy conservation. With the existing
wall insulation compromised, the applicable sections of
13432 and 13514 set standards for building envelope
performance in energy conservation. The compromised
wall insulation is an opportunity for replacement for
extending service life of the facility, restoring building
code compliance, by changing existing roll insulation to
rigid insulation with R-35 rating, or better.
If the project is not undertaken, the insulation will
continue to flake off into work areas and building
electrical energy consumption will increase.
Without the insulation replacement, the 2711
E/EA/EB complex will be unable to meet DOE RL
objectives for building longevity, remaining service
life or operating costs.
The 2711 E/EA/EB has a projected service life of
26 remaining years to FY2042 or FY2043. The
benefits of adding rigid insulation to replace
compromised existing roll type insulation with a
lower design R value include annual energy savings
and reduced loads on HVAC system. The two
HVAC units serving the main structure will be
changed out during FY2016 of FY2017, so the
project is scoped to address building envelope
needs for the next 26 years of service, including
sealing penetrations and at roll up doors. Original
insulation material surface places in 1984, 1991,

L-819, High Capacity Fiber
Project.
The project scope is to design, procure, and
construct/install new high capacity fiber optic cable
between the 300 and 200E Areas that supports the
consolidation and expanding number of HLAN users from
~7400 currently to ~9,000 peaking in FY25.
Key assmumptions include:
1) Minimum fiber optic cable size is 144 strand 10G Zero
Water Peak, triple jacketed, double armour fiber (or state
of the art equivalent).
2) Fiber quantity/trench length is ~ 20 miles based on the
length required to run from the 339A/300 Area building to
the 2506E2/200E Area building.
3) EIS or EA NEPA documentation will be required.
4) The cultural resources review process will require a
memorandum of agreement (MOA).
If the installation of new high capacity fiber is not
executed, the following impacts will be realized: 1)
slowed network performance due to bandwidth
limitations, and 2) increased downtime as fiber
continues to degrade resulting in outages and costly
repairs.
Critical systems such as VoIP and AtHOC
(emergency communication to the Hanford work
force) are dependent on network communications
pathways. Network capacity is currently limited by
existing pathways and communication capability
will be limited as the user base grows on the central
plateau. The additional fiber will also allow for a
fully redundant path for network traffic in case of
disaster or other incidents that would obstruct the
existing path.
Additionally, as the site consolidates, a future
Disaster Recovery (DR) and Continuity Of
Operations (COOP) Data Center is being considered
in the Central Plateau. The new fiber optic cable
would be an essential upgrade that without, the
ability to perform DR or COOP to and from this
area is either limited or impossible.
As the Hanford Site continues to shrink the
footprint, the employee user base will continue to
converge to the Central Plateau and City of
Richland. Telecommunications infrastructure to
support and sustain the new environment needs to
be implemented. Populations served by
Information Technology systems are forecast by

risk of entry, but are not fully effective or efficient
in all weather and lighting conditions. If the access
control barier is not constructed, a risk of improper
entry onto a firing range exists that could lead to an

The Hanford LFSH is 25 years old and is the oldest
in the DOE complex. Because of its condition, it is
constantly in need of time consuming and costly
maintenance. Immense efforts have to be taken to
prevent the potential safety issues inherent in use of
this outdated facility. By DOE pro force standards
and in terms of state of the art training, this is an
inadequate facility, lacking in size, not current in
Shoot House (SH) technology, and is antiquated
from a tactical training stand point. Throughout the
DOE complex, sites have been using their SH to
also address emerging Active Shooter training, a
task which cannot be accomplished at the Hanford
SH. The limited space hinders movement, training
capacity, and oversight by the instructor staff. It is a
DOE Order requirement to conduct training and
qualify Hanford Patrol Pro Force personnel twice a
year in the SH. If Hanford Patrol Force, particularly
the Special Response Team (SRT), does not
maintain their qualifications in the SH, they will be
removed from their status, and not be able to
perform their duties on Hanford patrol. This will
affect the primary mission to protect personnel,
government assets, and SNM, and induce a critical
amount of risk in effectiveness. It is imperative that
Pro Force be proficient in very critical and high risk
building entry/room clearing skills and techniques.

Section C.2.1.1.1 Protective Forces of the contract
states: “The Protective Forces function serves DOE
and all Hanford Site contractors, with a specific
focus on facilities possessing critical safeguards
and security interests (e.g., SMN). The Protective
Forces (Hanford Patrol) function is comprised of
select security elements (armed personnel,
specialized equipment, tactical procedures, etc.)
associated with physically protecting people and
property on the Hanford Site. The authorities and
requirements for Protective Force functions are
fundamentally derived from the AEA of 1954, as
amend and all the subsequent code of Federal
regulations and DOE implementing requirements
that flow from the AEA.”
“The Contractor shall provide fully qualified SRT
combatants”
“Maintain, train, and provide all necessary
equipment to fully outfit the Protective Force; and
the Contractor shall include specialty assignments
with the SRT, such as breachers and snipers in
accordance with the security configuration
strategy.”
“Develop and execute, as realistically as possible
(e.g., cold smoke, breaching, simulations, etc.),
validation performance test plans for detection and
intervention capabilities of possible malevolent
incidents.”
DOE Order 473.3 Protection Operation requires
semi-annual LFSH qualifications to maintain

overall site mission. By definition, HAMMER
provides a safe training environment that allows
workers to learn about the hazards associated with
their tasks and the associated controls and

In support of the Hanford cleanup mission,
HAMMER provides hands-on training for hoisting
and rigging operations on a 3,600 square feet pad
that includes equipment such as a ten-ton gantry
crane mounted on anchored rails allowing for 45
feet of travel. With the outdoor configuration of
crane and rigging equipment on this pad, it requires
frequent maintenance and cleaning to reduce
instructor and student health risks associated with
bird excrement. Training opportunities are also
reduced when there is inclement weather. Building
a pre-engineered structure over these props ensures
a safe training environment, prolongs the training
equipment’s life by eliminating damage due to
weather exposure, and allows for training to
continue during inclement weather.

T-226, Rad Con Practical
Training Building.
Construct a 30x70 ft. steel building that will be used for
radiation training and storage of material. The building
will be divided into three rooms. One room would be a
Tank Farms change room supporting outside environment
radiological work and provide more realistic training
situations. The center section of the building will be a
small storage room for consumable materials used for
radiation training, and the third room will be an open area
to be used for advanced radiation worker training, task-
specific training for the Vitrification Plant and other
Hanford activities, Radiological Control Technician (RCT)
proficiency training, and containment training.
The current facilities lack the long-term training
facilities to support tank farm personnel training and
Vitrification Plant start-up, advanced Rad Worker
training for the Vitrification Plant, and improved
training for personnel working in outdoor areas. As
the 2028 Vision is realized, training areas at the site
will be eliminated. The equipment located in
HAMMER radiological training is generic and
reflects the current technology being used at
Hanford. Over 50% of Hanford radiological work
occurs in outside environments. It is assumed that
start-up and operation of the Vitrification Plant will
introduce new equipment and process changes. Rad
Worker and RCT training will be required to shift
emphasis from contamination control during
Vitrification Plant operations/maintenance and tank
farm support operations. Insufficient training
capacity available to support Vitrification Plant
specific radiological training, and lack of RCT and
advanced Rad Worker practical training area
contribute to increased risk of work/operational
error with subsequent impacts of contamination
spread, internal exposure, and unnecessary radiation
dose.
The HAMMER training facility serves as the
primary training facility for the Hanford Site
workers and emergency responders for safety
preparedness, health, and quality of work life to
support the overall site mission. By definition,
HAMMER provides a safe training environment
that allows workers to learn about the hazards
associated with their tasks and the associated

Plant personnel need advanced radiation worker
training, training with remote monitoring and
handling of materials as well as increase emphasis
on dose management techniques. Tank farm
operations will continue to be performed in large
outdoor areas with single point egress and exit.
Improved facilities would provide training for
personnel working in outdoor areas and mitigate
risks from worker/operational errors. There are no
existing facilities/props suitable to their needs.
This building would provide a change room;
simulated outside environmental radiological work
area; and an open-are, task-specific radiation
proficiency and containment training area.

T-234, HAMMER Admin
Building 6091 Natural Gas
Conversion.
This project would replace the current use of propane gas
with natural gas for facility heating at the HAMMER
Administration Building. A natural gas pipeline owned by
Cascade Natural Gas currently exists at the southeast
boundary of the HAMMER site. A natural gas pipeline
will be trenched from the existing natural gas line to the
Administration Building and will require mitigation of the
construction work, metering, and conversion of the
existing burners. This project is only to replace the use of
propane gas for facility heating purposes; propane gas will
continue to be used for fire training props since natural gas
does not provide a visible flame for training purposes.
Although propane is also used for heating purposes in the
Al Alm building, this project does not include pipeline
routing and conversion at this time due to the difficulties
and added expense of routing the natural gas pipeline
through (or around) the HAMMER training props.
However, this project would provide an opportunity for
future conversion and cost savings to both the Al Alm
building, as well as to a current project funded by the U.S.
State Department to construct a new training facility.
If this project is not performed, there would be no
means of achieving long-term cost savings from the
conversion to natural gas.
The HAMMER training facility serves as the
primary training facility for Hanford Site workers
and emergency responders for safety preparedness,
health, and quality of work life to support the
overall site mission. By definition, HAMMER
provides a safe training environment that allows
workers to learn about the hazards associated with
their tasks and the associated controls and

Proposed conversion is from Liquefied Petroleum
Gas to Natural Gas for the HAMMER
Administration Building boilers and water heaters.
The extension of the Natural Gas Pipeline to the
HAMMER campus will allow for this conversion at
this building with an anticipated payback of
between 8 to 15 years. Conversion of other
buildings on campus have proven to be cost
prohibitive due to the costs associated with
extending the Natural Gas line through the campus.
This conversion would save money in the long
range and slightly reduce emissions.

EC03, Replace Regulated 33-
Ton Crane with an 80-Ton
Crane - HO 17T-5684 (1984).
This procurement replaces the 33-ton crane (HO-17T-
5684) with an 80-ton crane. The smaller capacity older
cranes are being replaced with the newer larger 80-ton
capacity RT cranes because of the ergonomically designed
tilt cab design, the patented ride glide system intended to
produce a smoother controllable highway ride, and the
newly designed MEGAFORM™ boom which eliminates
weight and increases capacity compared to conventional
boom shapes. The current crane was procured and placed
into service in 1984.
The existing crane is no longer cost effective to
operate due to continuous mechanical breakdowns.
The dependability of the crane is not acceptable to
meet the increasing workload schedule being placed
on it. This particular crane must be reliable and
dependable to meet accelerated schedules.
Replacement parts for this 28-year-old crane are
becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. This
crane is needed to support accelerated cleanup
projects for WRPS tank farm projects and
maintenance operations. This crane will be used
extensively for pit and tank intrusive work inside the
200E and 200W Area tank farms complex, such as
facility upgrades and life extension projects. The
lack of this mobile crane will lead to lengthy delays
in meeting accelerated milestones and the
contractor’s performance measurements. WRPS
will experience greater costs without this crane due
to maintenance repairs and down time while waiting
on the availability of other cranes within the crane
fleet.
Tank farms increasingly defines limits on tank
dome loading to protect structural integrity of the
tanks requiring cranes be located farther from the
tank dome. These limitations require increasing the
stand-off established between the ground loading of
the mobile crane footprint and the tank dome. The
existing small capacity (30 and 33-ton) older cranes
in Hanford’s crane fleet cannot provide the lifting
capacity needed for forecasted loads while meeting
these stand-off requirements. Tank Farms now
requires MSA Crane and Rigging to comply with
requirement of ASME NQA-1 quality standard.
Newer model cranes provide the best insurance of
compliance and reliability and larger cranes
provide the required safety margins. The
dependability of this current crane is not acceptable
to meet the increasing workload that is being
placed on them and the safety features are limited
and outdated. These issues have and will continue
to challenge Tank Farm contractor costs and
schedule due to extended repairs and downtime
while waiting on the availability of other cranes
within the crane pool. Based upon the long-term
Tank Farm mission requirements and collaborative
analysis has concluded that these older cranes
should be replaced with larger, 80-ton capacity
units.

greater costs without this crane due to maintenance
repairs and down time while waiting on the
availability of other cranes within the crane fleet.
The scale of the Hanford cleanup mission requires
significant material handling capabilities in support
of waste management activities. The diverse
locations and schedules of material movements
dictate the need for Hanford to retain and reliable
fleet of mobile cranes than can be deployed as
cleanup projects progress. This mission need is
most notable in the support of operations of
Hanford’s tank farms (including tank monitoring,
sluicing, transfer, and retrieval). Routinely, these
activities require crane support to move heavy
loads above and around the in-ground tanks. The
safety bases for the tank farms define limits on tank
dome loading to protect structural integrity of the
tanks. These limitations require a stand-off
distance to be established between the mobile crane
footprint and the tank dome. The existing small
capacity (30 and 33-ton) older cranes in Hanford’s
crane fleet cannot meet the stand-off requirements
for protection of the underground tanks while still
providing the lifting capacity needed for forecasted
loads. Additionally, these cranes are 25-30 years
old and beyond their life expectancy. The
dependability of the cranes is not acceptable to
meet the increasing workload that is being place on
them and the safety features are limited and
outdated. These issues have and will continue to
