Background

The Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate (Enclosure 2) in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75(f)(3) for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) Unit 1 and Unit 2 evaluates the DECON strategy with operating licenses expiration of August 9, 2013 for Unit 1 and October 29, 2014 for Unit 2. The Irradiated Fuel Management Plan is also based on the DECON analysis and current operating license expiration dates. There is one independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) on the PINGP site operating under a Site Specific Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) license. Xcel Energy reserves the right to choose the ultimate decommissioning option in accordance with its business needs, recognizing the need to ensure the chosen option meets NRC requirements for decommissioning funding. Inclusion of costs in this submittal is not in-tended to acknowledge that these costs will ultimately be borne by Xcel Energy or Nuclear Management Company, LLC (NMC), as some (or all) are expected to be the responsibility of the U.S. Department of Energy as a result of the breach of the Standard Contract of Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and/or High-Level Radioactive Waste.

I1.

Spent Fuel Management Strategy The NRC requires (10 CFR 50.54(bb)) that licensees establish a program to manage and provide funding for the caretaking of all irradiated fuel at the reactor site until title of the fuel is transferred to the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE).

Interim storage of the irradiated fuel will be either in the spent fuel storage pool or the ISFSI located on the PINGP site until the DOE has completed the transfer to a repository. The ISFSI operates under an independent site specific license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The design of the ISFSI provides room for expansion that will accommodate the inventory of spent fuel residing in PINGP's storage pool at the conclusion of the required cooling period. The ISFSI if expanded would store all spent nuclear fuel on-site.

The spent fuel pool will remain operational for a minimum of 15 years following the cessation of operations. This period provides the necessary cooling for the final irradiated fuel removed from the reactor core to meet dry storage canister requirements for decay heat. The spent fuel pool will be isolated and a spent fuel island created. Over the fifteen year cool-down period, the irradiated fuel would be packaged into TN-40 casks for transfer to DOE from the ISFSI. Transfer of irradiated fuel from the spent fuel pool to dry storage in the ISFS1 allows for early decontamination and dismantlement of plant structures. The ISFSI will remain operational and provide interim storage of spent fuel until such time that the DOE.

Page 1 of 4

Enclosure I completes fuel acceptance. Consequently, costs are included within the estimate below for the long-term caretaking of the irradiated fuel at PINGP through the year 2053.

The shipping of spent nuclear fuel assemblies to DOE during decommissioning is based upon several assumptions. First DOE would begin accepting irradiated fuel from PINGP in 2028. Second, based on DOE generator allocation/receipt schedules, the oldest irradiated fuel receives the highest acceptance priority.

Third, the maximum rate at which irradiated fuel is removed from commercial sites like PINGP is based upon 3,000 metric tons of uranium (MTU) national ac6eptance rate. However, any delay in the startup of the repository or decrease in the rate of acceptance will correspondingly prolong the transfer process and result in the fuel remaining at the site longer. In the DECON scenario, the ISFSI will continue to operate until such time that the transfer of irradiated fuel to the DOE is complete. Finally, assuming that the DOE commences repository operation in 2025, irradiated fuel is projected to be removed from the PINGP site by the end of 2053. Consequently, costs are included within this analysis for the continued operation of the storage pool and ISFSI, as required, and for the long-term caretaking of the spent fuel until the year 2053. At the conclusion of the spent fuel transfer process the ISFSI will be decommissioned.

Operation and maintenance costs for the storage facilities (ISFSI and the spent fuel pool) are included within the estimate below and address the cost for staffing the facilities, maintenance of necessary operational requirements as well as security, insurance, and licensing fees. The estimate includes the costs to purchase, load, and transfer the fuel storage canisters to an ISFSI. A cost-estimate for irradiated fuel management at PINGP under the DECON scenario may be found in Table 1.

In the event that PINGP ceases operation in 2013 and 2014 for Unit 1 and Unit 2 respectively, PINGP will continue to comply with existing NRC licensing requirements, including the operation and maintenance of the systems and structures needed to support continued operation of the spent fuel pool and each ISFSI, as necessary, under the decommissioning scenario ultimately selected. In addition, PINGP will also comply with applicable license termination requirements in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82 with respect to plant shutdown and post-shutdown activities including seeking such NRC approvals and on such schedules as necessary to satisfy these requirements consistent with the continued safe storage of irradiated fuel.

Page 2 of 4 III.

Funding for Spent Fuel Management Based on the DECON Decommissioning Option The NRC minimum decommissioning financial assurance requirement as reported in Reference 2 and set forth in 10 CFR 50.75(c) for PINGP is approximately $324.9 million for Unit1 and $324.9 million for Unit 2.

As of December 31, 2007, the PINGP decommissioning trust funds balance were

$402.4 million for Unit 1 and $430.2 for Unit 2. These funds are being supplemented with annual total Company contributions of approximately $15 million for Unit 1 and $19 million for Unit 2 based on a prescribed schedule per Minnesota Public Utility Commission direction. Adjustments to the annual contribution require approval of multiple state public utilities commissions. The trust fund monies will be used for radiological decommissioning and to pay for irradiated fuel management. However, inclusion of irradiated fuel costs in this submittal is not intended to acknowledge that these costs will ultimately be borne by Xcel Energy or NMC, as some (or all) are expected to be the responsibility of the U.S. Department of Energy as a result of the breach of the Standard Contract of Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and/or High-Level Radioactive Waste.

IV.

Cost Estimate For Spent Fuel Management Based on the DECON Decommissioning Option The "Decommissioning Cost Analysis for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant," included cost estimates of $404 million for spent fuel management,

$1,026 million for decommissioning and $83.7 million for site restoration using a DECON scenario (Table 1). The following items are key costs estimates:

(1) The estimated cost to isolate the spent fuel pool and fuel handling systems is

$11.8 million. This cost is based on spent fuel pool isolation costs at other decommissioned facilities and engineering judgment. This cost is part of the activities necessary to maintain the spent fuel in a safe and controlled state both during the initial decommissioning activities and during the irradiated fuel cool-down period to meet dry storage canister requirement for decay heat.

(2) The estimated annual cost for the dry storage ISFSI at PINGP is approximately $6.6 million. This cost is based on actual costs at decommissioned facilities, estimated costs for facilities similar to PINGP and engineering judgment. These are annual costs incurred during the storage period, beginning in 2031 and continuing through removal of all fuel and "Greater Than Class C" radioactive material in 2053.

3) The estimated cost for preparation, packaging, and shipping of irradiated fuel to the Department of Energy (DOE) is $220 million. This cost includes the unit cost of approximately $4.1 million for each TN-40 cask. This cost is based on Page 3 of 4

Enclosure I actual costs at decommissioned facilities, estimated costs for facilities similar to PINGP, and engineering judgment.

(4) An average cost of $100,000 is used for labor and equipment to load each TN-40 onto a DOE-provided railcar for transport of the irradiated fuel to a DOE repository.

(5) The estimated ISFSI Decontamination & Dismantling cost is $12.9 million.

This cost includes disposal of the TN-40 casks.

The decommissioning schedule includes the following program period and durations for a DECON with dry storage scenario:

Page 4 of 4 Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate I.

Introduction This report presents a summary of the preliminary decommissioning cost estimate to decommission Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) Unit 1 and Unit 2, as required by 10CFR50.75(f)(3). This cost estimate is based on the "Decommissioning Cost Analysis for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant" and premised on the assumption that PINGP Unit 1 and Unit 2 permanently cease to operate in August 2013 and October 2014, respectively. The estimate assumes the eventual removal of all contaminated and activated plant components and structural materials, such that the PINGP operating licenses may be terminated to permit unrestricted use of the site. Although Nuclear Management Company, LLC (NMC) is currently seeking license renewal for PINGP, this cost estimate is based on the current operating licenses expiration dates for PINGP. If license renewal for PINGP is granted, this Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate would no longer be applicable and a new estimate will be submitted in accordance with 10CFR50.75(f)(3).

I1.

Comparison of the Preliminary Cost Estimate to the Minimum Required Decommissioning Fund The minimum decommissioning financial assurance requirement for PINGP, as reported in Reference 2 and set forth in 10CFR50.75(c), is approximately $324.9 million for each unit. The total preliminary decommissioning cost estimate based on the "Decommissioning Cost Analysis" is approximately $1,513.7 million. This estimate includes approximately $1,026 million for decommissioning costs, $404 million for spent fuel management and $83.7 million for site restoration (Table 1).

II1.

Assessment of Maoor Factors That Could Affect Preliminary Cost Estimate A.

Decommissioningq Option/Method This Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate assumes a DECON decommissioning option with dry storage of spent nuclear fuel. This estimate assumes cessation of operation for Unit 1 in August 2013 and Unit 2 in October 2014 and a Department of Energy (DOE) spent fuel repository open in 2025 with the first irradiated fuel leaving the plant in 2028. Interim safe storage of the irradiated fuel will be in the spent nuclear fuel storage pool and/or the ISFSI located on the PINGP site until the DOE assumes title to the spent fuel. The Page 1 of 8 ISFSI which operates under an independent Site Specific NRC license, will accommodate the inventory of spent fuel residing in the spent nuclear fuel storage pool at the conclusion of the required irradiated fuel cooling period. This cost estimate scenario includes the decontamination and dismantlement of the facility, irradiated fuel management, and restoration of the site.

B.

Potential for Known or Suspected Contamination The Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate does not assume the remediation of any significant volume of contaminated soil. This assumption may be affected by continued plant operations and/or future regulatory actions, such as the development of site-specific release criteria.

C.

LLW Disposition Plan Low Level (Radioactive) Waste (LLW) disposal costs include processing, packaging, shipping, and burial/vendor costs. This Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate assumes that additional disposal capacity will be available to support reactor decommissioning, particularly for the isolation of the more highly radioactive material. Therefore, for estimating purposes, Class B and C waste disposal costs were generated using the last available published pricing schedule for Barnwell in South Carolina for non-Atlantic members. Costs related to Class A waste uses the Energy Solutions rates for their open facility in Utah. Due to the high cost per cubic foot of LLW disposal, decontamination, recycling, conditioning and metal processing were incorporated into the decommissioning cost calculations in order to reduce the overall LLW disposal. costs.

D.

Preliminary Schedule of Decommissioninq Activities A schedule of the decommissioning scenario is illustrated in Table 3. Activity and period-dependent costs are estimated for each of the 5 decommissioning time periods, post-decommissioning ISFSI operation, and ISFSI decontamination and decommissioning. These time periods are briefly described in Section IV, below.

E.

Other Factors That Could Significantly Affect the Cost to Decommission NMC is currently unaware of any major site-specific factors that could have a significant effect on the cost of decommissioning. In order to anticipate unknown or unplanned occurrences during decommissioning, e.g., tool breakage, accidents, illnesses, weather delays, and labor stoppages, contingencies are applied to the cost estimates. Contingencies are defined in the American Association of Cost Engineers "Project and Cost Engineers' Handbook" as "specific provision for unforeseeable elements of cost within the defined project scope; particularly important where previous experience relating estimates and Page 2 of 8 actual costs has shown that unforeseeable events which will increase costs are likely to occur." The amount of contingency depends on the status of design, procurement and construction; and the complexity and uncertainties within the defined project scope. The "Decommissioning Cost Analysis for PINGP" conducted by TLG Services, Inc, examined the major activity-related problems (decontamination, segmentation, equipment handling, packaging, transport, and waste disposal) that necessitate a contingency. The composite contingency value calculated for the PINGP DECON alternative is 17.07%.for Unit 1 and 17.23% for Unit 2. Individual activity contingencies range from 10% to 75%

depending on the degree of difficulty judged to be appropriate from actual decommissioning experience. Examples include: 15% for staffing and engineering; 25% for low level waste disposal; 50% for decontamination and 75% for reactor segmentation. It should be noted that contingency, as used in this analysis, does not account for price escalation and inflation in the cost of decommissioning over the remaining operating life of the station.

IV.

Preliminary Cost Estimate Considerations The Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate is based on costs associated with the entire decommissioning work scope, including those activities related to the following periods of the decommissioning project: (1) Transition and Preparations, (2) Decommissioning (3) Site Restoration (4) ISFSl Operations and (5) ISFSI Decommissioning and Site Restoration. The cost estimate also includes ISFSI operating and decommissioning costs. The scope of each of those activities is described below. Disposition of LLW is also accounted for in the Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate, as described in Section Ill.C, above.

A summary of activities and time duration for each DECON period follows (see Table 2 for summary of cost elements and Table 3 for cost estimates for each period):

(1) Transition and Preparations: Includes preliminary engineering and planning to permanently de-fuel the reactor, revision of Technical Specifications applicable to operating conditions and requirements, a characterization of the facility and major components, and the development of the Post-Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR). This period includes activities including, but not limited to, transfer of the spent fuel to the ISFSI, draining and de-energizing of non-contaminated systems, disposal of contaminated filter elements and resin beds, decontamination of the reactor coolant system, draining of the reactor vessel, preparing lighting, alarm, and security systems, and performing radiation surveys. Period duration is estimated at 20 months.

Page 3 of 8 (2) Decommissioning: Includes continuation of spent fuel transfer from spent fuel pool to the ISFSI, commencement of shipments of irradiated fuel from the ISFSI to the DOE, removal of reactor internals and vessel, non-essential systems removal, structure decontamination, removal of spent fuel racks, and final site survey of reactor plant. Also included are physical decommissioning activities associated with the removal and disposal of contaminated components and structures. This period also includes surveys leading to the successful termination of the 10CFR50 operating license. Period duration estimated at 194 months.

(3b) Site Restoration: Includes activities required to remove contaminated materials and verify that residual radionuclide concentrations are below NRC limits. This will include prompt removal of site structures, removal of foundations and exterior walls to a nominal depth of three feet below grade, and fill and grading of the site. Period duration estimated at 28 months.

(3cl3d) ISFSI Operations: Includes continued on-site dry storage of spent fuel, completion of spent fuel shipment from pool to ISFSI. Period duration estimated at 244 months.

(3e/3f) ISFSI D&D: Includes completion of irradiated fuel shipments from dry storage to DOE, and a final survey of ISFSI and removal. Period duration estimated at 7 months.

V.

Plans for Adiusting Levels of Funding NMC submitted a sufficient application for renewal of an operating license (Reference 1) and therefore, in accordance with 10 CFR 2.109, "Effect of Timely Renewal Application," "the existing license will not be deemed to have expired until the application has been finally determined." Although NMC is seeking license renewal, the Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate is submitted based on the current operating license expiration dates of August 9, 2013 for PINGP Unit 1 and October 29, 2014 for Unit 2. If license renewal for PINGP is granted, the Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate would no longer be applicable and a new plan and cost estimate will be submitted in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75(f)(3).

The cost to decommission PINGP is estimated to be $1,513.7 million in 2008 dollars. The "Decommissioning Cost Analysis for PINGP" included cost estimates of approximately $1,026 million for decommissioning costs, $404 million for spent fuel management and $83.7 million for site restoration using a DECON scenario. The total estimated decommissioning costs by period and decommissioning activity are provided in Tables 1 and 2.

Page 4 of 8 The NRC minimum decommissioning financial assurance requirement for PINGP as reported in Reference 2 and set forth in1OCFR50.75(c) is approximately

$324.9 million for each unit at PINGP. As of December 31, 2007, the PINGP decommissioning trust fund balance was $402.4 million for Unit 1 and $430.2 million for Unit 2.

Xcel Energy applies reasonable earnings rates to the decommissioning funds throughout the decommissioning periods described above. In addition, the Preliminary Decommissioning Cost Estimate includes reasonable escalation factors for the decommissioning activities. Based on a cash flow analysis for the decommissioning activities to be performed for the periods described above, Xcel Energy believes that there is reasonable assurance that adequate decommissioning funds will be available to decommission PINGP Unit 1 and Unit 2 as described herein (assuming an August 2013 and October 2014 cessation of operations dates for each respective unit). Xcel Energy plans to review the decommissioning fund status on a regular basis as described above.

SUMMARY

This report presents an estimate of the cost to promptly decommission the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (Prairie Island) following the scheduled cessation of plant operations. The prompt decommissioning, or DECON method, as described below, was selected as it is the most cost-effective of the alternatives (in current dollars) to achieve the objectives of decommissioning. The analysis relies upon site-specific, technical information from an earlier evaluation prepared in 2005,11] updated to reflect current assumptions pertaining to the disposition of the nuclear units and relevant industry experience in undertaking such projects.

The current estimate is designed to provide the plant's owners, with sufficient information to assess their financial obligations, as they pertain to the eventual decommissioning of the nuclear units.

The primary goal of decommissioning is the removal and disposal of the contaminated systems and structures so that the plant's operating licenses can be terminated. This analysis recognizes that spent fuel will be stored at the site in the plant's storage pool and/or in an independent spent

-fuel storage installation (ISFSI) until such time that it can be transferred to a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) facility. Consequently, the estimate also includes those costs to manage and subsequently decommission these storage facilities.

The Prairie Island site currently consists of two operating pressurized water reactors, and Units I and 2 are each nominally rated to produce approximately 529 megawatts of electricity (MW).

The currently projected cost to decommission the station is estimated at $1,514 million, as reported in 2008 dollars. The estimate is based on numerous fundamental assumptions, including regulatory requirements, project contingencies, low-level radioactive waste disposal practices, high-level radioactive waste management options, and site restoration requirements. *The estimate incorporates a minimum cooling period for the spent fuel that resides in the storage pool when operations cease. Any residual fuel remaining in the pool after the cooling period is relocated to the ISFSI to await transfer to a DOE facility. The estimate also includes the dismantling of site structures and non-essential facilities and the limited restoration of the site.

An ISFSI is currently operating on the Prairie Island site. The facility will contain 29 Transnuclear dry storage casks after 40 years of operation. The casks are single-purpose and the stored assemblies will be relicensed to meet transport regulations in support of final transferfto a DOE repository. An additional 39 Transnuclear casks will be purchased to accommodate all residual fuel remaining in the pool after final shutdown. Transfer of all spent fuel post-shutdown will require 15 years to allow for radioactive decay to decrease heat loading. Spent fuel is expected to be completely removed from the site by 2053.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XOI-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page viii of xv Alternatives and Regulations The ultimate objective of the decommissioning process is to reduce the inventory of contaminated and activated material so that the license(s) can be terminated. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) provided initial decommissioning requirements in its rule adopted on June 27, 1988.[21 In this rule, the NRC set forth financial criteria for decommissioning licensed nuclear power facilities. The regulations addressed planning needs, timing, funding methods, and environmental review requirements for decommissioning.

The rule also defined three decommissioning alternatives as being acceptable to the NRC: DECON, SAFSTOR, and ENTOMB.

DECON is defined as "the alternative in which the equipment, structures, and portions of a facility and site containing radioactive contaminants are removed or decontaminated to a level that permits the property to be released for unrestricted use shortly after cessation of operations." [3]

SAFSTOR is defined as "the alternative in which the nuclear facility is placed and maintained in a condition that allows the nuclear facility to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated (deferred decontamination) to levels that permit release for unrestricted use."'4a Decommissioning is to be completed within 60 years, although longer time periods will be considered when necessary to protect public health and safety.

ENTOMB is defined as "the alternative in which radioactive contaminants are encased in a structurally long-lived material, such as concrete; the entombed structure is appropriately maintained and continued surveillance is carried out until the radioactive material decays to a level permitting unrestricted release of the property."'51 As with the SAFSTOR alternative, decommissioning is currently required to be completed within 60 years.

The 60-year restriction has limited the practicality for the ENTOMB alternative at commercial reactors that generate significant amounts of long-lived radioactive material.

In 1997, the Commission directed its staff to re-evaluate this alternative and identify the technical requirements and regulatory actions that would be necessary for entombment to become a viable option. The resulting evaluation provided several recommendations; however, rulemaking has been deferred pending the completion of additional research studies, for example, on engineered barriers.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page ix of xv In 1996, the NRC published revisions to the general requirements.for decommissioning nuclear power plants to clarify ambiguities and codify procedures and terminology as a means of enhancing efficiency and uniformity in the decommissioning process.161 The amendments allow for greater public participation and better define the transition process from operations to decommissioning.

Regulatory Guide 1.184, issued in July 2000, further described the methods and procedures acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing the requirements of the 1996 revised rule relating to the initial activities and major phases of the decommissioning process. The costs and schedules presented in this analysis follow the general guidance and processes described in the amended regulations. The format and content of the estimate is also consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.202, issued in February 2005.71' Methodology The methodology used to develop the estimate described within this document follows the basic approach originally presented in the cost estimating guidelines181 developed by the Atomic Industrial Forum (now Nuclear Energy Institute). This reference describes a unit factor method for determining decommissioning activity costs. The unit factors used in this analysis incorporate site-specific costs and the latest available information on worker productivity in decommissioning.

The estimate also reflects lessons learned from TLG's involvement in the Shippingport Station

,decommissioning, completed in 1989, and the decommissioning of the Cintichem reactor, hot cells and associated facilities, completed in 1997. In addition, the planning and engineering for the Pathfinder, Shoreham, Rancho Seco, Trojan, Yankee Rowe, Big. Rock Point, Maine Yankee, Humboldt Bay-3, Connecticut Yankee and San Onofre-1 nuclear units have provided additional insight into the process, the regulatory aspects, and technical challenges of decommissioning commercial nuclear units.

An activity duration critical path is used to determine the total decommissioning program schedule.

The schedule is relied upon in calculating the carrying costs, which include program management, administration, field engineering, equipment-rental, and support services, such as quality control and security.

Contingency Consistent with cost estimating practice, contingencies are applied to the decontamination and dismantling costs developed as "specific provision for unforeseeable elements of cost within the defined project scope, particularly important where previous experience relating estimates and actual 6

This contingency factor is a nearly universal element in all large-scale construction and demolition projects. It should be noted that contingency, as used in this analysis, does not account for price escalation and inflation in the cost of decommissioning over the projected operating life of the station.

Contingency funds are expected to be fully expended throughout the program. As such, inclusion of contingency is necessary to provide assurance that sufficient funding will be available to accomplish the intended tasks.

Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal The contaminated and activated material generated in the decontamination and dismantling of a commercial nuclear reactor is classified as low-level (radioactive) waste, although not all of the material is suitable for "shallow-land" disposal. With the passage of the "Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act" in 1980,110] the states became ultimately responsible for the disposition of low-level radioactive waste generated within their own borders.

The federal law encouraged the formation of regional groups or compacts to implement this objective safely, efficiently, and economically, and set a target date of 1986 for implementation.

After little progress, the "Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985,"1'"'1 extended the implementation schedule, with specific milestones and stiff sanctions for non-compliance. Subsequent court rulings have substantially diluted those sanctions and, to date, no new compact facilities have been successfully sited, licensed and constructed.

In the interim, and as a proxy, the EnergySolutions' disposal facility in Clive, Utah is used as the destination for the lowest level, Class A,1 121 radioactive waste. EnergySolutions does not have a license to dispose of the more highly radioactive waste (Class B and C) generated in the dismantling of the reactor. The rates are comparable with those offered by the Barnwell facility in South Carolina which currently does accept Class B and C material, but which in the future would not be available to Xcel Energy under current South Carolina law. Despite the closing of one of the two currently accessible commercial disposal sites, it is reasonable to assume that additional disposal capacity will be available to support reactor decommissioning, particularly for the isolation of the more highly radioactive material that is not suitable for disposal elsewhere. For estimating purposes, and as a 9

A significant portion of the waste material generated during decommissioning may only be potentially contaminated by radioactive materials. This waste can be analyzed on site or shipped off site to licensed facilities for further analysis, for processing and/or for conditioning/recovery.

Reduction in the volume of low-level radioactive waste requiring disposal in a licensed low-level radioactive waste disposal facility can be accomplished through a variety of methods, including analyses and surveys or decontamination to eliminate the portion of waste that does not require disposal as radioactive waste, compaction, incineration or metal melt. The estimate for Prairie Island reflects the savings from waste recovery/volume reduction.

High-Level Radioactive Waste Management Congress passed the "Nuclear Waste Policy Act""] (NWPA) in 1982, assigning the federal government's long-standing responsibility for disposal of the spent nuclear fuel created by the commercial nuclear generating plants to the DOE. The NWPA provided that DOE would enter into contracts with utilities in which DOE would promise to take the utilities' spent fuel and high-level radioactive waste and utilities would,pay the cost of -the disposition services for that material.

NWPA, along with the individual contracts with the utilities, specified that -the DOE was to begin accepting spent fuel by January 31, 1998.

Since the. original legislation, the DOE has announced several delays in-the program schedule. By January 1998, the DOE had failed to accept any spent fuel or high level waste, as required by the NWPA and utility contracts. Delays continue and, as a result, generators have initiated legal action against the DOE in an attempt to obtain compensation for DOE's breach of contract.

Operation of DOE's yet-to-be constructed repository is contingent upon the review and approval of the facility's license application by the NRC and the successful resolution of pending litigation. The DOE submitted its license application in June 2008. Assuming a timely review, DOE expects that receipt of fuel could begin as early as 2017,1143 although 2020 may be more likely according to the director of the DOE's waste program.[15]

It is generally necessary that spent fuel be actively cooled and stored for a minimum period at the generating site prior to transfer. As such, the NRC requires that licensees establish a program to manage and provide funding for the management of all irradiated fuel at the reactor until title of the fuel is transferred to the Secretary of Energy, pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50.54(bb).1 161 This funding 13 "Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 and Amendments," DOE's Office of Civilian Radioactive Management, 1982.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xii of xv requirement is fulfilled through inclusion of certain cost elements in the decommissioning estimate, for example, associated with the isolation and continued operation of the spent fuel pool and ISFSI.

At shutdown, the spent fuel pool is expected to contain freshly discharged assemblies (from the most recent refueling cycles) as well as the final reactor core. Over the following fifteen years the assemblies are packaged into casks and transferred to dry storage at the ISFSI. It is assumed that this period provides the necessary cooling for the final core to meet the storage canister requirements for decay heat.

DOE's contracts with utilities generally order the acceptance of spent fuel from utilities based upon the oldest fuel receiving the highest priority. For purposes of this analysis, acceptance of commercial spent fuel by the DOE is expected to begin in 2025. The first assemblies removed from the Prairie Island site are assumed to be in 2028. With an estimated rate of transfer of 3,000 metric tons of uranium (MTU)/year, completion of the removal of fuel from the site is projected to be in the year 2053.

The existing ISFSI, which operates under the Station's general license, is expanded to support decommissioning. As such, the facility will be modified to accommodate the additional dry storage casks needed to off-load the wet storage pool so that dismantling activities can proceed.

Xcel Energy's position is that the DOE has a contractual obligation to accept Prairie Island' fuel earlier than the projections set out above consistent with its contract commitments. No assumption made in this study should be interpreted to be inconsistent with this claim. However, at this time, including the cost of storing spent fuel in this study is the most reasonable approach because it insures the availability of sufficient decommissioning funds at the end of the station's' life if, contrary to its contractual obligation, the DOE has not performed earlier.

Site Restoration Prompt dismantling of site structures (once the facilities are decontaminated) is clearly the most appropriate and cost-effective option. It is unreasonable to anticipate that these structures would be repaired and preserved after the radiological contamination is removed. The cost to dismantle site structures with a work force already mobilized on site is more efficient than if the process is deferred. Site facilities quickly degrade without maintenance, adding additional expense and creating potential hazards to the public and the demolition work force. Consequently, this study assumes that site structures are removed to a nominal depth of three feet below the local grade level wherever possible. The site is then to be graded and stabilized.

Summary The cost to promptly decommission the Prairie Island units assumes the removal of all contaminated and activated plant components and structural materials such that the owner(s) may then have unrestricted use of the site with no further requirements for an operating license.

waste, other than GTCC waste, is sent to a commercial processor for treatment/conditioning or a controlled disposal facility.

Decommissioning is accomplished within the 60-year period required by current NRC regulations.

In the interim, the spent fuel remains in storage at the site until such time that the transfer to a DOE facility is complete. Once emptied, the storage facilities are also decommissioned.

The decommissioning scenario is described in Section 2. The assumptions are presented in Section 3, along with schedules of annual expenditures. The major cost contributors are identified in Section 6, with detailed activity costs, waste volumes, and associated manpower requirements delineated in Appendix C. The major cost components are also identified in the cost summary provided at the end of this section.

The cost elements in this estimate are assigned to one of three subcategories: NRC License Termination, Spent Fuel Management, and Site Restoration. The subcategory "NRC License Termination" is used to accumulate costs that are consistent with "decommissioning" as defined by the NRC in its financial assurance regulations (i.e., 10 CFR Part 50.75). In situations where the long-term management of spent fuel is not an issue, the cost reported for this subcategory is generally sufficient to terminate the unit's operating license.

The "Spent Fuel Management" subcategory contains costs associated with the construction of an ISFSI, the containerization and transfer of spent fuel to the ISFSI that is not transferred directly to the DOE over the five and one-half years of post-shutdown pool operations, and the management of the ISFSI until such time that the transfer of all fuel from this facility to an off-site location (e.g.,

geologic repository) is complete. The estimate also includes spent fuel management expenses incurred prior to the cessation of plant operations.

"Site Restoration" is used to capture costs associated with the dismantling and demolition of buildings and facilities demonstrated to be free from contamination. This includes structures never exposed to radioactive materials, as well as those facilities that have been decontaminated to appropriate levels. Structures are removed to a depth of three feet and backfilled to conform to local grade.

It should be noted that the costs assigned to these subcategories are allocations. Delegation of cost elements is for the purposes of comparison (e.g., with NRC financial guidelines) or to permit specific financial treatment (e.g., ARO determinations). In reality, there can be considerable interaction between the activities in the three subcategories. For example, an owner may decide to remove non-contaminated structures early in the project to improve access to highly contaminated facilities or plant components. In these instances, the non-contaminated removal costs could be reassigned from Site Restoration to an NRC License Termination support activity. However, in general, the allocations represent a reasonable accounting of those costs that can be expected to be incurred for the specific subcomponents of the total estimated program cost, if executed as described.

As noted within this document, the estimate was developed and costs are presented in 2008 dollars.

As such, the estimate does not reflect the escalation of costs (due to inflationary and market forces) over the remaining operating life of the reactors or during the decommissioning period.

1. INTRODUCTION This report presents an estimate of the cost to promptly decommission the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (Prairie Island) following the scheduled cessation of plant operations. The analysis relies upon site-specific, technical information from an earlier evaluation prepared in 2005,ý11 updated to reflect current assumptions pertaining to the disposition of the nuclear units and relevant industry experience in undertaking such projects. The current estimate -is designed to provide the plant's owners, with sufficient information to assess their financial obligations, as they pertain to the eventual decommissioning of the nuclear units. It is not a detailed engineering document, but a financial analysis prepared in advance of the detailed engineering that will be required to carry out the decommissioning.

1.1 OBJECTIVES OF STUDY The objectives of this study are to prepare a comprehensive estimate of the cost to decommission the Prairie Island nuclear units, to provide a sequence or schedule for the associated activities, and to develop waste stream projections from the decontamination and dismantling activities.

For the purposes of this study, final shutdown dates (license expiration) for Unit 1 and Unit 2 are August 2013 and October 2014, respectively. Assuming a scheduled cessation of operations, these dates approximate a forty-year operating life.

1.2 SITE DESCRIPTION Prairie Island is located on the west bank of the Mississippi River, approximately 26 miles southeast of the Twin City Metropolitan Area and within the city limits of Red Wing. The site is in Goodhue County, Minnesota.

The Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) consists of a pressurized water reactor and a two-loop reactor coolant system. The system is comprised of the reactor vessel and two closed reactor coolant loops connected in parallel to the reactor vessel, each containing a reactor coolant pump and a steam generator.

An electrically heated pressurizer is connected to one of the loops. The components were supplied by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation, with the reactor rated at a net core power output of 1650 MW(t). The steam and power conversion equipment, including the turbine-generator, has the capability to generate a gross unit output is 592 MW(e).

The system is housed within the reactor containment vessel, a free-standing cylindrical steel shell with a hemispherical dome and ellipsoidal bottom designed to withstand the internal pressure accompanying a loss-of-coolant accident., The reactor containment vessel TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. O Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 2 of 7 is surrounded by a cylindrical shield building constructed of reinforced concrete, -which serves as a radiation shielding for normal operations and for the loss-of-coolant condition.

Heat produced in the reactor is converted to electrical energy by the plant's power conversion system. A turbine-generator converts the thermal energy of steam produced in the steam generators into mechanical shaft power and then into electrical energy. The turbine-generator consists of one high-pressure, double-flow and two low-pressure, double-flow elements driving a direct-coupled generator at 1800 rpm. The turbines are operated in a closed feedwater cycle in which the steam is condensed and returned to the steam generators by the feedwater system.

Heat rejected in the main condensers is removed by the circulating water system, which provides the heat sink for the removal of the waste heat in the power plant's thermal cycle.

The majority of the heat is removed through dilution with river water in the discharge canal. Forced draft cooling towers provided supplemental heat removal.

1.3 REGULATORY GUIDANCE The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) provided initial decommissioning requirements in its rule "General Requirements for Decommissioning Nuclear Facilities," issued in June 1988.[2] This rule set forth financial criteria for decommissioning licensed nuclear power facilities.

The regulation addressed decommissioning planning needs, timing, funding methods, and environmental review requirements. The intent of the rule was to ensure that decommissioning would be accomplished in a safe and timely manner and that adequate funds would be available for this purpose. Subsequent to the rule, the NRC issued Regulatory Guide 1.159, "Assuring the Availability of Funds for Decommissioning Nuclear Reactors,"'[3 which provided additional guidance to the licensees of nuclear facilities on the financial methods acceptable to the NRC staff for complying with the requirements of the rule. The regulatory guide addressed the funding requirements and provided guidance on the content and form of the financial assurance mechanisms indicated in the rule.

The rule defined three decommissioning alternatives as being acceptable to -the NRC:

DECON, SAFSTOR, and ENTOMB. The DECON alternative assumes that any contaminated 'or activated portion of the plant's systems, structures and facilities are removed or decontaminated to levels that permit the site to be released for unrestricted use shortly after the cessation of plant operations. The rule also placed limits on the time allowed to complete the decommissioning process. For SAFSTOR, the process is restricted in overall duration to 60 years, unless it can be shown that a longer duration is necessary to protect public health and safety. The guidelines for ENTOMB are similar, providing the NRC with both sufficient leverage and flexibility to ensure that this deferred option is only used in situations where it is reasonable and consistent with the definition of decommissioning. At the conclusion of a 60-year dormancy period (or longer for TLG Services, Inc;

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 3 of 7 ENTOMB if the NRC approves such a, case), the site would still require significant remediation to meet the unrestricted release limits for license termination.

The ENTOMB alternative has not been viewed as a viable option for power reactors due to the significant time required to isolate the long-lived radionuclides for decay to permissible levels. With rulemaking permitting the controlled release of a site,[4] the NRC has re-evaluated this alternative. The resulting feasibility study, based upon an assessment by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, concluded that the method did have conditional merit for some, if not most reactors. However, the staff also found that additional rulemaking would be needed before this option could be treated as a generic alternative.

The NRC considered rulemaking to alter the 60-year time for completing decommissioning and to clarify the use of engineered barriers for reactor entombmentsJ51 At this time, however, the NRC's staff has recommended that rulemaking be deferred, based upon several factors including that no licensee has committed to pursuing the entombment option, the unresolved issues associated with the disposition of greater-than-Class C material (GTCC), and the NRC's current priorities, at least until after the additional research studies are complete.

The Commission concurred with the staff's recommendation.

In 1996, the NRC published revisions to the general requirements for decommissioning nuclear power plants.16] When the decommissioning regulations were adopted in 1988, it was assumed that the majority of licensees would decommission at the end of the facility's operating licensed life. Since that time, several licensees permanently and prematurely ceased operations. Exemptions from certain operating requirements were required once the reactor was defueled to facilitate the decommissioning. Each case was handled individually, without clearly defined generic requirements. The NRC amended the decommissioning regulations in 1996 to clarify ambiguities and codify procedures and terminology as a means of enhancing efficiency and uniformity in the decommissioning process. The amendments allow for greater public participation and better define the transition process'from operations to decommissioning.

Under the revised regulations, licensees will submit written ceirtification to the NRC within 30 days after the decision to cease operations. Certification will also be required once the fuel is permanently removed from the reactor vessel. Submittal of these notices will entitle the licensee to a fee reduction and eliminate the obligation to follow certain requirements needed only during operation of the reactor. Within two years of submitting notice of permanent cessation of operations, the licensee is required to submit a Post-Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR) to the NRC. The PSDAR describes the planned decommissioning activities, the associated sequence and schedule, and an estimate of expected costs. Prior to completing decommissioning, the licensee is required to submit an application to the NRC to terminate the license, which will include a license termination plan (LTP).

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 4 of 7 1.3.1 Nuclear Waste Policy Act Congress passed the "Nuclear Waste Policy Act"I71 (NWPA) in 1982, assigning the federal government's long-standing responsibility for disposal of the spent nuclear fuel created by the commercial nuclear generating plants to the DOE. The NWPA provided that DOE would enter into contracts with utilities in which DOE would promise to take the utilities' spent fuel and high level waste, and utilities would pay the cost of the disposition services for that material. NWPA, along with the individual disposal contracts with the utilities, specified that the DOE was to begin accepting spent fuel by January 31, 1998.

Since the original legislation, the DOE has announced several delays in the program schedule. By January 1998, the DOE had failed to accept spent nuclear fuel and high level waste, as required by the NWPA and utility contracts. Delays continue and, as a result,, generators have initiated legal action against the DOE in an attempt to obtain compensation for DOE's breach of contract.

Operation of DOE's yet-to-be constructed repository is contingent upon the review and approval of the facility's license application by the NRC and the successful resolution of pending litigation. The DOE filed the license application in June 2008. Assuming a timely review, DOE expects that receipt of -fuel could begin as early as 2017,[8]

although 2020 may be more likely according to the director of the DOE's waste program.[9]

It is generally necessary that spent fuel be actively cooled and stored for a minimum period at the generating site prior to transfer. As such, the NRC requires that licensees establish a program to manage and provide funding for the management of all irradiated fuel at the reactor until title of the fuel is transferred to the Secretary of Energy, pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50.54(bb).t'°' This funding requirement is fulfilled through inclusion of certain cost elements in the decommissioning estimate, for example, associated with the isolation and continued operation of the spent fuel pool and ISFSI.

At shutdown, the spent fuel pool is expected to contain freshly discharged assemblies (from the most recent refueling cycles) as well as the final reactor core. Over the next fifteen years the assemblies are packaged into multipurpose canisters for transfer to DOE from the ISFSI. It is assumed that this period provides the necessary cooling for the final core to meet storage canister requirements for decay heat.

DOE's contracts with utilities generally order the acceptance of spent fuel from utilities based upon the oldest fuel receiving the highest priority. The contracts also provide for exchanges of acceptance allocations among utilities, priority acceptance of spent fuel from permanently shutdown reactors and emergency acceptance of spent TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 5 of 7 fuel. In addition, DOE has discussed the development of new contracts that would address acceptance of spent fuel from new plants. For purposes of this analysis, the acceptance of commercial spent fuel by the DOE is expected to begin in 2025. The first assemblies removed from the Prairie Island site are assumed to be in 2028. With an estimated rate of transfer of 3,000 metric tons of uranium (MTU)/year, completion of the removal of fuel from the site is projected to be in the year 2053.

An ISFSI, which Xcel Energy operates under a site-specific license, is currently in operation to support plant operations and decommissioning. As such, the facility will be modified to accommodate the dry storage casks needed to off-load the wet storage pool so that dismantling activities can proceed.

Xcel Energy's position is that the DOE has a contractual obligation to accept Prairie Island' fuel earlier than the projections set out above consistent with its contract commitments. No assumption made in this study should be interpreted to be inconsistent with this claim. However, at this time, including the cost of storing spent fuel in this study is the most reasonable approach because it insures the availability of sufficient decommissioning funds if, contrary to its contractual obligations, the DOE has not performed.

1.3.2 Low-Level Radioactive Waste Acts The contaminated and activated material generated in the decontamination and dismantling of a commercial nuclear reactor is classified as low-level (radioactive) waste, although not all of the material is suitable for "shallow-land" disposal. With the passage of the "Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act" in 1980,1"1 the states became ultimately responsible for the disposition of low-level radioactive waste generated within their own borders.

The federal law encouraged the formation of regional groups or compacts to implement this objective safely, efficiently, and economically, and set a target date of 1986 for implementation. After little progress, the "Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985,'[12] extended the implementation schedule, with specific milestones and stiff sanctions for non-compliance. Subsequent court rulings have substantially diluted those sanctions and, to date, no new compact facilities have been successfully sited, licensed and constructed.

In June 2000, South Carolina formally joined with Connecticut and New Jersey to form the Atlantic Compact. The legislation allowed South Carolina to gradually limit access to. the Barnwell facility, with only Atlantic Compact members having access to the facility after mid-year 2008. Therefore, Prairie Island is no longer able to access the disposal facility in Barnwell, South Carolina. Prairie Island still has access to the EnergySolutions facility in Clive Utah (for 10 CFR 61 Class A waste only). It is TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 1, Page 6 of 7 reasonable to assume that additional disposal capacity will be developed to support reactor decommissioning, particularly for the isolation of the more highly radioactive material that is not suitable for disposal elsewhere.

In the interim, and as a proxy, the EnergySolutions' disposal facility in Clive, Utah is used as the destination for the lowest level, Class A,[131 radioactive waste.

EnergySolutions does not have a license to dispose of the more highly radioactive waste (Class B and C) generated in the dismantling of the reactor. As such, the disposal costs for this material are based upon the last published rate schedule for non-compact waste.for the Barnwell facility.

A significant portion of the waste material generated during decommissioning may only be potentially contaminated by radioactive materials. This waste can be analyzed on site or shipped off site to licensed facilities for further analysis, for processing and/or for conditioning/recovery. Reduction in the volume of low-level radioactive waste requiring disposal in a licensed low-level radioactive waste disposal facility can be accomplished through a variety of methods, including analyses and surveys or decontamination to eliminate the portion of waste that does not require disposal as radioactive waste, compaction, incineration or metal melt. The estimate for the Prairie Island units reflects the savings from waste recovery/volume reduction.

1.3.3 Radiological Criteria for License Termination In 1997, the NRC published Subpart E, "Radiological Criteria for License Termination,"['14] amending 10 CFR Part-20. This subpart provides radiological criteria for releasing a facility for unrestricted use. The regulation states that the site can be released for unrestricted use if radioactivity levels are such that the average member of a critical group would not receive a Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) in excess of 25 millirem per year, and provided that residual radioactivity has been reduced to levels that are As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA).

The decommissioning estimate for the Prairie Island site assumed that it will be remediated to a residual level consistent with the NRC-prescribed level.

It should be noted that the NRC and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) differ on the amount of residual radioactivity 'considered acceptable in site remediation. The EPA has two limits that apply to radioactive materials. An EPA limit of 15 millirem per year is derived from criteria established by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund).1 151 An additional and separate limit of 4 millirem per year, as defined in 40 CFR Part 141.16, is applied to drinking water.[1 6]

On October 9, 2002, the NRC signed an agreement with the EPA on the radiological decommissioning and decontamination of NRC-licensed sites. The TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 7 of 7 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)1171 provides that EPA will defer exercise of authority under CERCLA for the majority of facilities decommissioned under NRC authority. The MOU also includes provisions for NRC and EPA consultation for certain sites when, at the time of license termination, (1) groundwater contamination exceeds EPA-permitted levels; (2) NRC contemplates restricted release of the site; and/or (3) residual radioactive soil concentrations exceed levels defined in the MOU.

The MOU does not impose any new requirements on NRC licensees and should reduce the involvement of the EPA with NRC licensees who are decommissioning.

Most sites are expected to meet the NRC criteria for unrestricted use, and the NRC believes that only a few sites will have groundwater or soil contamination in excess of the levels specified in the MOU that trigger consultation with the EPA. However, if there are other hazardous materials on the site, the EPA may be involved in the cleanup. As such, the possibility of dual regulation remains for certain licensees.

The present study does not include any costs for this occurrence.

2. DECOMMISSIONING ALTERNATIVE DESCRIPTION A detailed cost estimate was developed to promptly decommission the Prairie Island nuclear units, (i.e., the DECON decommissioning alternative). The DECON alternative, as defined by the NRC, is "the alternative in which the equipment, structures, and portions of a facility and site containing radioactive contaminants are removed or decontaminated to a level that permits the property to be released for unrestricted use shortly after cessation of operations."

The following sections describe the basic activities associated with the DECON alternative.

Although detailed procedures for each activity identified are not provided, and the actual sequence of work may vary, the activity descriptions provide a basis not only for estimating but also for the expected scope of work (i.e., engineering and planning at the time of decommissioning).

The conceptual approach that the NRC has described in its regulations divides decommissioning into three phases. The initial phase commences with the effective date of permanent cessation of operations and involves the transition of both plant and licensee from reactor operations (i.e.,

power production) to facility de-activation and closure. During the first phase, notification is provided to the NRC certifying the permanent cessation of operations and the removal of fuel from the reactor vessel. The licensee is then prohibited from reactor operation.

The second phase encompasses activities during the storage period or during major decommissioning activities, or a combination of the two. The third phase pertains to the activities involved in license termination. The decommissioning estimate developed for Prairie Island is also divided into phases or periods; however, demarcation of the phases is based upon major milestones within the project or significant changes in the projected rate of expenditure.

2.1 PERIOD 1 - PREPARATIONS In anticipation of the cessation of plant operations, detailed preparations are undertaken to provide a smooth transition from plant operations to' site decommissioning. Through implementation of a staffing transition plan, the organization required to manage the intended decommissioning activities is assembled from available plant staff and outside resources. Preparations include the planning for permanent defueling of the reactor, revision of technical specifications applicable to the operating conditions and requirements, a characterization of the facility and major components, and the development of the PSDAR.

2.1.1 Engineering and Planning The PSDAR, required within two years of the notice to cease operations, provides a description of the licensee's planned decommissioning activities, a timetable, and TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 2 of 7 the associated financial requirements of the intended decommissioning program.

Upon receipt of the PSDAR, the NRC will make the document available to the public for comment in a local hearing to be held in the vicinity of the reactor site.

Ninety days following submittal and NRC receipt of the PSDAR, the licensee may begin to perform major decommissioning activities under a modified 10 CFR Part 50.59 procedure (i.e., without specific NRC approval). Major activities are defined as any activity that results in permanent removal of major radioactive components, permanently modifies the structure of the containment, or results in dismantling components (for shipment) containing GTCC, as defined by 10 CFR Part 61. Major components are further defined as comprising the reactor vessel and internals, steam generators, large bore reactor coolant system piping, and other large components that are radioactive. The NRC includes the following additional criteria for use of the Part 50.59 process in decommissioning. The proposed activity must not:

o foreclose release of the site for possible unrestricted use, o significantly increase decommissioning costs, o cause any significant environmental impact, or o violate the terms of the licensee's existing license.

Existing operational technical specifications are reviewed and modified to reflect plant conditions and the safety concerns associated with permanent cessation of operations.

The environmental impact associated with the planned decommissioning activities is also considered. Typically, a licensee is not allowed to proceed if the consequences of a particular decommissioning activity are greater than that bounded by previously evaluated environmental assessments or impact statements. In this instance, the licensee must submit a license amendment for the specific activity and update the environmental report.

The decommissioning program outlined in the PSDAR is designed to accomplish the required tasks within the ALARA guidelines (as defined in 10 CFR Part 20) for protection of personnel from exposure to radiation hazards. It also addresses the continued protection of the health and safety of the public and the environment during the dismantling activity. Consequently, with the development of the PSDAR, activity specifications, cost-benefit and safety analyses, work packages, and procedures are assembled to support the proposed decontamination and dismantling activities.

2.1.2 Site Preparations Following final plant shutdown, and in preparation for actual decommissioning activities, the following activities are initiated:

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 3 of 7

  • Characterize the site and surrounding environs. This includes radiation surveys and sampling of the work areas, major components (including the reactor vessel and its internals), internal piping, and biological shield.
  • Isolate the spent fuel storage pool and fuel 'handling systems, such that decommissioning operations can commence on the balance of the plant.

Decommissioning operations are scheduled around the fuel handling area to optimize the overall project schedule. The fuel is transferred -from the pool once it decays to the point that it meets the heat load criteria of the storage/transport containers. Consequently, it is assumed that the fuel pool will remain operational for approximately fifteen years following the cessation of plant operations while the residual inventory is transferred to the ISFSI.

  • Specify of transport and disposal requirements.for activated materials and/or hazardous materials, including shielding and waste stabilization.

Develop procedures for occupational exposure control, control and release of liquid and gaseous effluent, processing of radwaste (including dry-active waste, resins, filter media, metallic and non-metallic components generated in decommissioning), site security and emergency programs, and industrial safety.

2.2 PERIOD 2 - DECOMMISSIONING OPERATIONS This period includes the physical decommissioning activities associated with the removal and disposal of contaminated and activated components and structures, including *the successful termination of the 10 CFR Part 50 operating license. Significant decommissioning activities in this.phase include:

  • Construct temporary facilities and/or modification of existing facilities to support dismantling activities. This may include a centralized processing area to facilitate equipment removal and component preparations for off-site disposal.
  • Reconfigure and modify site structures and facilities as needed to support decommissioning operations. This may include the upgrading of roads (on-and off-site) to facilitate hauling and transport. Modifications may be required to the containment structure to facilitate access of large/heavy equipment. Modifications may also be required to the refueling area of the building to support the segmentation of the reactor vessel internals and component extraction.
  • Design and fabricate temporary and permanent shielding to support removal and transportation activities, construction of contamination control envelopes, and the procurement of specialty tooling.
  • Procure (lease or purchase) of shipping canisters, cask liners, and industrial packages.

" Decontaminate components and piping systems as required to control (minimize) worker exposure.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XO I-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 4 of 7 o Remove piping and components no longer essential to support decommissioning operations.

  • Remove control rod drive housings and the head service structure from reactor vessel head. Segment the vessel closure head.

" Remove and segment the upper internals assemblies. Segmentation will maximize the loading of the shielded transport casks (i.e., by weight and activity). The operations are conducted under water using remotely operated tooling and contamination controls.

o Disassemble and segment the remaining reactor internals, including the core former and lower core support assembly. Some material is expected to exceed Class C disposal requirements. That material will be packaged in a modified spent fuel storage canister for geologic disposal.

o Segment the reactor vessel. A shielded platform is installed for segmentation as cutting operations are performed in air using remotely operated equipment within a contamination control envelope. The water level is maintained just below the cut to minimize the working area dose rates. Segments are transferred in-air to containers that are stored under water, for example, in an isolated area of the refueling canal.

o Remove activated portions of the concrete biological shield and accessible contaminated concrete surfaces. If dictated by the steam generator and pressurizer removal scenarios, those portions of the associated cubicles necessary for access and component extraction are removed.

o Remove the steam generators and pressurizer for controlled disposal. The steam domes are removed for off-site processing. The lower shell is sealed and the nozzles and other openings welded closed. These components can serve as their own burial containers provided that all penetrations are properly sealed and the internal contaminants are stabilized. Steel shielding is added, as necessary, to those external areas of the steam generators to meet transportation limits and regulations.

o Transfer any remaining spent fuel from the storage pool to the ISFSI.

At least two years prior to the anticipated date of license termination, a LTP is required.

Submitted as a supplement to the FSAR, or equivalent, the plan must include: a site characterization, description of the remaining dismantling activities, plans for site remediation, procedures for the final radiation survey, designation of the end use of the.

site, an updated cost estimate to complete the decommissioning, and any associated environmental concerns. The NRC will notice the receipt of the plan, make the plan available for public comment, and schedule a local hearing. LTP approval will be subject to any conditions and limitations as deemed appropriate by the Commission. The licensee may then commence with the final remediation of site facilities and services, including:

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 5 of 7

  • Remove remaining plant systems and associated components as they become nonessential to the decommissioning program or worker health and safety (e.g., waste collection and treatment systems, electrical power and ventilation systems).

" Remove steel liners from refueling canal, disposing of the activated and contaminated sections as radioactive waste. Remove any remaining activated/ contaminated concrete.

  • Survey decontaminated areas of the containment structure.
  • Remediate and remove the contaminated equipment and material from the mechanical and electrical auxiliary and fuel handling buildings and any other contaminated facility.

Radiation and contamination controls are utilized until residual levels indicate that the structures and equipment can be released for unrestricted access and conventional demolition. This activity may necessitate the dismantling and disposition of most of the systems and components (both clean and contaminated) located within these buildings.

This activity facilitates surface decontamination and subsequent verification surveys required prior to obtaining release for demolition.,

Remove the remaining components, equipment, and plant services in support of the area release survey(s).

Route material removed in the decontamination and dismantling to a central processing area. Material certified to be free of contamination is released for unrestricted disposition (e.g., as scrap, recycle, or general disposal). Contaminated material is characterized and segregated for additional off-site processing (disassembly, chemical cleaning, volume reduction, and waste treatment), and/or packaged for controlled disposal at a low-level radioactive waste disposal facility.

Incorporated into the LTP is the Final Survey Plan. This plan identifies the radiological surveys to be performed once the decontamination activities are completed and is developed using the guidance provided in the "Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM)."I'181 This document incorporates the statistical approaches to survey design and data interpretation used by the EPA. It also identifies commercially available instrumentation and procedures for conducting radiological surveys. Use of this guidance ensures that the surveys are conducted in a manner that provides a high degree of confidence that applicable NRC criteria are satisfied. Once the survey is complete, the results are provided to the NRC in a format that can be verified.

The NRC then reviews and evaluates the information, performs an independent confirmation of radiological site conditions, and makes a determination on final termination of the license.

The NRC will terminate the operating license(s) if it determines that site remediation has been performed in accordance with the LTP, and that the terminal radiation survey and associated documentation demonstrate that the facility is suitable for release.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 6 of 7 2.3 PERIOD 3 - SITE RESTORATION Following completion of decommissioning operations, site restoration activities will begin.

Efficient removal of the contaminated materials and verification that residual radionuclide concentrations are below the NRC limits may result in substantial damage to many of the structures.

Although performed in a controlled, safe manner, blasting, coring, drilling, scarification (surface removal), and the other decontamination activities will substantially degrade power block structures including the reactor, fuel handling and mechanical and electrical auxiliary buildings. Verifying that subsurface radionuclide concentrations meet NRC site release requirements may require removal of grade slabs and lower floors, potentially weakening footings and structural supports. This removal activity is necessary for those facilities and plant areas where historical records, when available, indicate the potential for radionuclides having been present in the soil, where system failures have been recorded, or where it is required to confirm that subsurface process and drain lines were not breached over the operating life of the station.

Prompt dismantling of site structures is clearly the most appropriate option. It is unreasonable to anticipate that these structures would be repaired and preserved after the radiological contamination is removed. The cost to dismantle site structures with a work force already mobilized on site is more efficient than if the process were deferred. Site facilities quickly degrade without maintenance, adding additional expense and creating potential hazards to the public as well as to future workers. Abandonment creates a breeding ground for vermin infestation as well as other biological hazards.

This cost study presumes that non-essential structures and site facilities are dismantled as a continuation of the decommissioning activity. Foundations and exterior walls are removed to a nominal depth of three feet below grade. The three-foot depth allows for the placement of gravel for drainage, as well as topsoil, so that vegetation can be established for erosion control. Site areas affected by the dismantling activities are restored and the plant area graded as required to prevent ponding and inhibit the refloating of subsurface materials.

Concrete rubble produced by demolition activities is processed to remove rebar and miscellaneous embedments. The processed material is then used on site to backfill voids.

Excess materials are trucked to an off-site area for disposal as construction debris.

2.4 ISFSI OPERATIONS AND DECOMMISSIONING The ISFSI will continue to operate under a site-specific license as authorized by 10 CFR Part 72. Assuming the DOE begins to remove fuel from the Prairie Island site in 2028, the process is not expected to be completed until 2053. Any delay in the transfer process, for example, due to a delay in the scheduled opening of the geologic repository, a slower acceptance rate, or a combination of a delayed start date and lower transfer rate, can result TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 2, Page 7 of 7 in a longer on-site residence time for the fuel discharge from the reactors, as well as additional caretaking expenses.

At the conclusion of the spent fuel transferprocess, the ISFSI will be decommissioned. The Commission will terminate the license, when it determines that the remediation of the ISFSI has been performed in accordance with an ISFSI license termination plan and that the final radiation survey and associated documentation demonstrate that the facility is suitable for release.

The assumed design for the ISFSI is based upon the use of the TN-40 cask from Transnuclear. The Prairie Island ISFSI already contains twenty-four TN-40 casks, and Xcel Energy has indicated that the remainder of the Prairie Island spent fuel will be loaded into TN-40 casks as well. Therefore the TN-40 is used as a basis for this cost analysis. For purposes of this cost analysis, it is assumed that the spent fuel is shipped to DOE within the TN-40 casks. The concrete storage pad will then be removed, and the area graded and landscaped to conform to the surrounding environment. Once the spent fuel has been removed from the casks by DOE at the geologic repository, the TN-40 casks will be disposed of as low-level waste.

3. COST ESTIMATE The cost estimate prepared for decommissioning the Prairie Island units considers the unique features of the plant, including the nuclear steam supply system, power generation systems, support services, plant structures, and ancillary facilities. The basis of the estimate, including the sources of information relied upon, the estimating methodology employed, site-specific considerations, and other pertinent assumptions, is described in this section.

3.1 BASIS OF COST ESTIMATE The analysis relies upon site-specific, technical information from an earlier evaluation prepared in 2005,E11 updated to reflect current assumptions pertaining to the disposition of the nuclear units and relevant industry experience in undertaking such projects. This information was reviewed for the current analysis and updated as deemed appropriate. The site-specific considerations and assumptions used in the previous evaluations were also revisited. Modifications were incorporated where new information was available or experience from ongoing decommissioning programs provided viable alternatives or improved processes.

3.2 METHODOLOGY The methodology used to develop the estimates follows the basic approach originally presented in the AIF/NESP-036 study report, "Guidelines for Producing Commercial Nuclear Power Plant Decommissioning Cost Estimates,"[ 19]

and the DOE "Decommissioning Handbook.",1201 These documents present a unit factor method for estimating decommissioning activity costs, which simplifies the estimating calculations.

Unit factors for concrete removal ($/cubic yard), steel removal ($/ton), and cutting costs

($/inch) are developed using local labor rates. The activity-dependent costs are estimated with the item quantities (cubic yards and tons), developed from plant drawings and inventory documents. Removal rates and material costs for the conventional disposition of components and structures rely upon information available in the industry publication, "Building Construction Cost Data," published by R.S. Means. [21]

The unit factor method provides a demonstrable basis for establishing a reliable cost estimate. The detail provided in the unit factors, including activity duration, labor costs (by craft), and equipment and consumable costs, ensures that essential elements have not been omitted. Appendix A presents the detailed development of a typical unit factor. Appendix B provides the values contained within one set of factors developed for this analysis.

This analysis reflects lessons learned from TLG's involvement in the Shippingport Station Decommissioning Project, completed in 1989, as well as the decommissioning of the Cintichem reactor, hot cells, and associated facilities, completed in 1997. In addition, the planning and engineering for the Pathfinder, Shoreham, Rancho Seco, Trojan, Yankee TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 2 of 34 Rowe, Big Rock Point, Maine Yankee, Humboldt Bay-3, Oyster Creek, Connecticut Yankee, and San Onofre-I nuclear units have provided additional insight into the process, the regulatory aspects, and the technical challenges of decommissioning commercial nuclear units.

Work Difficulty Factors The estimate follows the principles of ALARA through the use of work duration adjustment factors. These factors address the impact of activities such as radiological protection instruction, mock-up training, and the use of respiratory protection and protective clothing. The factors lengthen a task's duration, increasing costs and lengthening the overall schedule. ALARA planning is considered in the costs for engineering and planning, and in the development of activity specifications and detailed procedures.

Changes to worker exposure limits may impact the decommissioning cost and project schedule.

Work difficulty adjustment factors (WDFs) account for the inefficiencies in working in a power plant environment. The factors are assigned to each unique set of unit cost factors, commensurate with the inefficiencies associated with working in confined, hazardous environments. The ranges used for the WDFs are as follows:

  • Access Factor 10% to 20%

Respiratory Protection Factor 10% to 50%

  • Radiation/ALARA Factor 10% to 37%
  • Protective Clothing Factor 0% to 30%
  • Work Break Factor 8.33%

The factors and their associated range of values were developed in conjunction with the AIF/NESP-036 study. The application of the factors is discussed in more detail in that publication.

Scheduling Program Durations The unit factors, adjusted by the WDFs as described above, are applied against the inventory of materials to be removed in the radiological controlled areas. The resulting man-hours, or crew-hours, are used in the development of the decommissioning program schedule, using resource loading and event sequencing considerations. The scheduling of conventional removal and dismantling activities is based upon productivity information available from the "Building Construction Cost Data" publication.

An activity duration critical path is used to determine the total decommissioning program schedule. The schedule is relied upon in calculating the carrying costs, which include TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 3 of 34 program management, administration, field engineering, equipment rental, and support services such as quality control and security. This systematic approach for assembling decommissioning estimates ensures a high degree of confidence in the reliability of the result.

3.3 IMPACT OF DECOMMISSIONING MULTIPLE REACTOR UNITS In estimating the near simultaneous decommissioning of two co-located reactor units there can be opportunities to achieve economies of scale, by sharing costs between units, and coordinating the sequence of work activities. There will also be schedule constraints, particularly where there are requirements for specialty equipment and staff, or practical limitations on when final status surveys can take place. For purposes of the estimate, Units 1 and 2 are assumed to be essentially identical. Common facilities have been assigned to Unit 2. A summary of the principal impacts are listed below.

The sequence of work generally follows the principal that the work is done at Unit 1 first, followed by similar work at Unit 2. This permits the experience gained at Unit 1 to be applied by the workforce at the second,unit. It should be noted however, that the estimate does not consider productivity improvements at the second unit, since there is little documented experience with decommissioning two units simultaneously. The work associated with developing activity specifications and procedures can be considered essentially identical between the two units, therefore the second unit costs are assumed to be a fraction of the first unit (- 40%).

o Segmenting the reactor vessel and internals will require the use of special equipment.

The cost of procuring that equipment is assumed to be shared on an equal basis between the two units. In addition, the decommissioning project will be scheduled such that Unit 2's reactor internals and vessel are segmented immediately after the activities at Unit I have been completed.

o Some program management and support costs, particularly costs associated with the more senior positions, can be avoided with two reactors undergoing decommissioning simultaneously. As a result, the estimate is based on a "lead" unit that includes these senior positions, and a "second" unit that excludes these positions. The designation as lead is based on the unit undertaking the most complex tasks (for instance vessel segmentation) or performing tasks for the first time.

The final radiological survey schedule is also affected by a two-unit decommissioning schedule. It would be considered impractical to try to complete the final status survey of Unit 1, while Unit 2 still has ongoing radiological remediation work and waste handling in process. As a result, Unit I is assumed to enter a delay period after completion of radiological remediation, such that the final status survey can be completed for the station. During this delay, program management costs are reduced accordingly.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 4 of 34

  • The final demolition of buildings at Units 1 and 2 are considered to take place concurrently. This is considered a reasonable assumption since. access to the buildings is considered good at the station.
  • Unit 1, as the first unit to enter decommissioning, incurs the majority of site characterization costs.

" Shared systems and structures are generally assigned to Unit 2.

  • Station costs such as ISFS1 operations, emergency response fees, regulatory agency fees, and insurance are generally allocated on an equal basis between the two units.

3.4,FINANCIAL COMPONENTS OF THE COST MODEL TLG's proprietary decommissioning cost model, DECCER, produces a number of distinct cost elements. These direct expenditures, however, do not comprise the total cost to accomplish the project goal (license termination and site restoration).

Inherent in any cost estimate that does not rely on historical data is the inability to specify the precise source of costs imposed by factors such as tool breakage, accidents, illnesses, weather delays, and labor stoppages. In the DECCER cost model, contingency fulfills this role. Contingency is added to each line item to account for costs that are difficult or impossible to develop analytically. Such costs are historically inevitable over the duration of a job of this magnitude; therefore, this cost analysis includes funds to cover these types of expenses.

3.4.1 Contingency

'The activity-and period-dependent costs are combined to develop the total decommissioning cost. A contingency is then applied on a line-item basis, using one or more of the contingency types listed in the AIF/NESP-036 study.

"Contingencies" are defined in the American Association of Cost Engineers "Project and Cost Engineers' Handbook"' 221 as "specific provision for unforeseeable elements of cost within the defined project scope; particularly important where previous experience relating estimates and actual costs has shown that unforeseeable events which will increase costs are likely to occur." The cost elements in this analysis are based upon ideal conditions and maximum efficiency; therefore, consistent with industry practice, contingency is included. In the AIF/NESP-036 study, the types of unforeseeable events that are likely to occur in decommissioning are discussed and guidelines are provided for percentage contingency in each category. It should be noted that contingency, as used in this analysis, does not account for price escalation and inflation in the cost of decommissioning over the anticipated operating life of the station.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 5 of 34 Contingency funds are an integral part of the totalý cost to complete the decommissioning process. Exclusion of this component puts at risk a successful completion of the intended tasks and, potentially, subsequent related activities. For this study, TLG examined the major activity-related problems (decontamination, segmentation, equipment handling, packaging, transport, and waste disposal) that necessitate a contingency. Individual activity contingencies ranged from 0% to 75%, depending on the degree of difficulty judged to be appropriate from TLG's actual decommissioning experience. The contingency values used in this study are consistent with those developed in the AIF/NESP-036 study and are as follows:

  • Decontamination 50%

Contaminated Component Removal 25%

" Contaminated Component Packaging 10%

  • Contaminated Component Transport 15%

" Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal 25%

  • Reactor Segmentation 75%
  • Nuclear Steam Supply System Component Removal 25%

Reactor Waste Packaging 25%

  • Reactor Waste Transport 25%
  • Reactor Vessel Component Disposal 50%
  • Greater-than-Class C Disposal 15%

" Non-Radioactive Component Removal 15%

Heavy Equipment and Tooling 15%

Supplies 25%

  • Engineering 15%

" Energy 15%

  • Characterization and Termination Surveys 30%
  • Construction 15%

Property Taxes 0%

Fees 10%

Insurance 10%

  • Staffing 15%

The contingency values are applied to the appropriate components of the estimate on a line item basis. A composite value is then reported at the end of each detailed estimate as provided in Appendix C.

-Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 6 of 34 3.4.2 Financial Risk In addition to the routine uncertainties addressed by contingency, another cost element that is sometimes necessary to consider when bounding decommissioning costs relates to uncertainty, or risk. Examples can include changes in work scope, pricing, job performance, and other variations that could conceivably, but not necessarily, occur. Consideration is sometimes necessary to generate a level of-confidence in the estimate, within a range of probabilities. TLG considers these types of costs under the broad term "financial risk." Included within the category of financial risk are:

" Delays in approval of the decommissioning plan due to intervention, public participation in local community meetings, legal challenges, and national and local hearings.

  • Changes in the project work scope from the baseline estimate, involving the discovery of unexpected levels of contaminants, contamination in places not previously expected, contaminated soil previously undiscovered (either radioactive or hazardous material contamination), variations in plant inventory or configuration not indicated by the plant drawings.
  • Regulatory changes, for example, affecting worker health and safety, site release criteria, waste transportation, and disposal.
  • Policy decisions altering national commitments (e.g., in the ability to accommodate certain waste forms for disposition), or in the timetable for such, for example, the start and rate of acceptance of spent fuel by the DOE.
  • Pricing changes for basic inputs such as labor, energy, -materials, and disposal.

Items subject to widespread price competition (such as materials) may not show significant variation; however, others such as waste disposal could exhibit large pricing uncertainties, particularly in markets where limited access to services is available.

It has been TLG's experience that the results of a risk analysis, when compared with the base case estimate for decommissioning, indicate that the chances of the base decommissioning estimate's being too high is a low probability, and the chances that the estimate is too low is a higher probability. This is mostly due to the pricing uncertainty for low-level radioactive waste disposal, and to a lesser extent due to schedule increases from changes in plant conditions and to pricing variations in the cost of labor (both craft and staff). This cost study, however, does not add any additional costs to the estimate for financial risk, since there is insufficient historical data from which to project future liabilities. Consequently, the areas of uncertainty or risk should be revisited periodically and addressed through repeated revisions or updates of the base estimate.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 7 of 34 3.5 SITE-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS There are a number of site-specific considerations that affect the method for dismantling and removal of equipment from the site and the degree of restoration required. The cost impact of the considerations identified below is included in this cost study.

3.5.1 Spent Fuel Management The cost to dispose the spent fuel generated from plant operations is not reflected within the estimate to decommission the Prairielsland units. Ultimate disposition of the spent fuel is within the province of the DOE's Waste Management System, as defined by the Nuclear Waste Policy Act (the disposal cost is financed by a 1 millikWhr surcharge paid into the DOE's waste fund during operations). However, the NRC requires licensees to establish a program to manage and provide funding for the management of all irradiated fuel at the reactor until title of the fuel is transferred to the Secretary of Energy. This funding requirement is fulfilled through inclusion of certain high-level waste cost elements within the estimate, as described below.

Operation of the DOE's yet-to-be constructed geologic repository is contingent upon the review and approval of the facility's license application by the NRC, the successful resolution of pending litigation, and the development of a national transportation system. The timetable issued by the DOE in 2006 is based upon submittal of the license application in mid-2008 (The application was submitted to the NRC in June 2008). Assuming a timely review (the application for the Private Fuel Storage's facility on the Goshute reservation took 8'/2 years), the DOE expects that receipt of fuel could begin as early as 2017. However, for purposes of this estimate, full scale operations at the repository are not expected to commence before 2025.

Spent Fuel Management Model Completion of the decommissioning process is highly dependent upon the DOE's ability to remove spent fuel from the site. The timing for removal of spent fuel from the site is based upon the DOE's most recently published annual acceptance rates of 400 MTU/year for year 1, 3,800 MTU total for years 2 through 4 and 3,000 MTU/year for year 5 and beyond.[231 The DOE contracts provide mechanisms for altering the oldest fuel first allocation scheme, including emergency deliveries, exchanges of allocations amongst utilities and the option of providing priority acceptance from permanently shutdown nuclear reactors. Because it is unclear how these mechanisms may operate once DOE begins accepting spent fuel from commercial reactors, this study assumes that DOE will accept spent fuel in an oldest fuel first order.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 8 of 34 ISFSI This analysis assumes that the existing ISFSI is modified at the cessation of plant operations to facilitate the decommissioning of the two nuclear units. The storage facility is sized to accommodate the fuel present in the storage pool at shutdown that cannot be transferred directly to the DOE.

Construction, operation and maintenance costs for the 1SFSI are included within the estimate and address the costs for staffing the facility, as well as security, insurance, and licensing fees. The estimate also includes the costs to purchase, load, and transfer the Transnuclear TN-40 metal cask storage system spent fuel storage canisters from the pool to the 1SFSI. Costs are also provided for 'the final disposition of the facilities once the transfer is complete.

Storage Canister Design The design and capacity of the ISFSI is based upon the TN-40 dry cask storage system. A capacity of 40 fuel assemblies is used, at a unit cost of approximately

$4,095,000 per cask.

Canister Loading and Transfer A cost of $100,000 is used for the labor and equipment to load each TN-40 onto a DOE-provided railcar for transport of the spent fuel to the DOE.

Operations and Maintenance An annual cost (excluding labor) of approximately $746,000 and $87,000 are used for operation and maintenance of the spent fuel pool and the ISFSI, respectively.

At shutdown, the spent fuel pool is expected to contain freshly discharged assemblies (from the most recent refueling cycles). Over the next fifteen years the assemblies are packaged into TN-40s -for transfer to the ISFSI for transfer to the DOE. It is assumed that the fifteen years also provides the necessary cooling period for -the final core to meet transport system requirements for decay heat and/or the dry cask storage vendor's system. Once the pool is emptied, the spent fuel storage and handling facilities are available for decommissioning.

ISFSI Design Considerations The TN-40° is an ultra-high capacity vertical storage system with self-contained steel and borated resin shielding. Borated aluminum plates and stainless steel tubes form the basket assembly. The Prairie Island ISFSI already contains twenty-four TN-40 casks, and Xcel Energy has indicated that the remainder of the Prairie Island TLG Services, Inc.

2 Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XOI-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 9 of 34 spent fuel will be loaded into TN-40 casks as well. Therefore the TN-40 is used as a basis for this cost analysis. While it is expected that surface contamination within the TN-40 casks could be removed to levels that meet the site release criteria, it is also expected that the casks will have some level of neutron-ihduced activation as a result of the long-term storage of the fuel (i.e., to levels exceeding free-release limits). The cost of the disposal of this material, as well as the demolition of the ISFSI, is reflected within the estimate.

GTCC The dismantling of the reactor internals generates radioactive waste considered unsuitable for shallow land disposal (i.e., low-level radioactive waste with concentrations of radionuclides that exceed the limits established by the NRC for Class C radioactive waste (GTCC)). The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 assigned the Federal Government the responsibility for the disposal of this material. The Act also stated that the beneficiaries of the activities resulting in the generation of such radioactive waste bear all reasonable costs of disposing of such waste. Although there are strong arguments that GTCC waste is covered by the spent fuel contact with DOE and the fees being paid pursuant to that contract, DOE has taken the position that GTCC waste is not covered by that contract or its fees and that utilities, including Xcel Energy, will have to pay an additional fee for the disposal of their GTCC waste. However, to date, the Federal Government has not identified a cost for disposing of GTCC or a schedule for acceptance. As such, the estimate to decommission the Prairie Island units includes an allowance for the disposition of GTCC material.

For purposes of this study, GTCC is packaged in the same canisters used to store spent fuel. It is not anticipated that the DOE would accept this waste prior to completing the transfer of spent fuel. Therefore, until such time the DOE is ready to accept GTCC waste, it is reasonable to assume that this material remains in storage with the spent fuel at the ISFSI.

3.5.2 Reactor Vessel and Internal Components The reactor vessel internal components are segmented for disposal in shielded, reusable transportation casks. Segmentation is performed underwater when practical where a remote cutter is installed. Transportation cask specifications and transportation regulations will dictate segmentation and packaging methodology.

The control elements are disposed of along with the spent fuel and, there is no additional cost provided for their disposal.

As stated previously, the dismantling of reactor internals will generate radioactive waste considered unsuitable for shallow land disposal (i.e., GTCC). Although the material is not classified as high-level waste by the NRC, DOE at one time TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XO)-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 3, Page 10 of 34 indicated it would accept title to this waste for disposal at the future high-level waste repository. [24] However, the current DOE position is unclear, and DOE Ihas not been forthcoming with an acceptance. criteria or disposition schedule for this material, and numerous questions remain as to the ultimate disposal cost and waste form requirements. As such, for purposes of this study, the GTCC radioactive waste has been packaged and disposed of as high-level waste, at a cost equivalent to that envisioned for the spent fuel.

Intact disposal of reactor vessel shells has been successfully demonstrated at several of the sites recently decommissioned. Access to navigable waterways has allowed these large packages to be transported to the Barnwell disposal site with minimal overland travel. Intact disposal of the reactor vessel and internal components can provide savings in cost and worker exposure by eliminating the complex segmentation requirements, isolation of the GTCC material, and transport/storage of the resulting waste packages. Portland General Electric (PGE) was able to dispose of the Trojan reactor as an intact package (including the internals).

However, its location on.the Columbia River simplified the transportation analysis since:

  • the reactor package could be secured to the transport vehicle for the entire journey, i.e., the package was not lifted during transport,
  • there were no man-made or natural terrain features between the plant site and the disposal location that could produce a large drop, and transport speeds were very low, limited by the overland transport vehicle and the river barge.

As a member of the Northwest Compact, PGE had a site available for disposal of the package - the US Ecology facility in Washington State. The characteristics of this arid site proved favorable in demonstrating compliance with land disposal regulations.

,It is not known whether this option will be available when the Prairie 'Island units cease operation. Future viability of this option will depend upon the ultimate location of the disposal site, as well as the disposal site licensee's ability to accept highly radioactive packages and effectively isolate them from the environment. As such, the estimate assumes segmentation of the reactor vessel, as a bounding condition. With lower levels of activation, the vessel shell can be packaged more efficiently than the curie-limited internal components. This will allow the use of more conventional waste packages rather than shielded casks for transport.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page)) of 34 3.5.3 Primary System Large Components The reactor coolant system components are assumed to be decontaminated using chemical agents prior to the start of cutting operations.

This type of decontamination can be expected to have a significant ALARA impact in the DECON scenario, since in this scenario the removal work is done within the first few years of shutdown. It should be noted that if the decommissioning work is significantly delayed, chemical decontamination might not be necessary. A decontamination factor (average reduction) of 10 is assumed for the process.

Disposal of the decontamination solution effluent is included within the estimate as a "process liquid waste" charge.

The following discussion deals with the removal and disposition of the steam generators, but the techniques involved are also applicable to other large radioactively-contaminated components, such as heat exchangers and the pressurizer. The steam generators' size and weight, their location within the reactor building, as well as the disposal facility waste acceptance criteria, and access to transportation will ultimately determine the removal, transportation, and disposal strategy.

A crane is set up for the removal of the generators. It can also be used to move portions of the steam generator cubicle walls and floor slabs from the reactor building to a location where they can be decontaminated and transported to the material handling area. Interferences within the work area, such as grating, piping, and other components are removed to create sufficient lay-down space for processing these large components.

The generators are rigged for removal, disconnected from the surrounding piping and supports, and maneuvered into the open area where they are lowered onto a down-ending cradle. Each generator is rotated into the horizontal position for extraction from the containment and placed onto a multi-wheeled vehicle for transport to an on-site preparation area.

Disposal costs are based upon the displaced volume and weight of the primary side portions of the steam generators. Each component is then loaded onto a rail car for transport to the disposal facility. The secondary side is assumed to be sent to an off-site waste processor.

Reactor coolant piping is cut from the reactor once the water level (used for personnel shielding during dismantling and cutting operations in and around the reactor) is dropped below the elevation of associated nozzle(s). The piping is boxed and transported by shielded van. The reactor coolant pumps and motors are lifted out intact, packaged, and transported for disposal.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XOI-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 3, Page 12 of 34 3.5.4 Main Turbine and Condenser The main turbine and condenser are assumed to have only minor levels of contamination. As such, the components are dismantled using conventional maintenance procedures. The turbine rotors and shafts are removed to a laydown area. The lower turbine casings are removed from their anchors by controlled--

demolition. The main condensers are also disassembled and moved to a laydown area. Material is then surveyed and designated for either decontamination or volume reduction, conventional disposal, or controlled disposal. Components are packaged and readied for transport in accordance with the intended disposition.

This estimate assumes that the components can meet free-release limits and ultimately dispositioned as scrap metal.

3.5.5 Transportation Methods Contaminated piping, components, and structural material other than the highly activated reactor vessel and internal components will qualify as LSA-I,.11 or III or Surface Contaminated Object, SCO-I or 1I, as described in Title 49.[251 The contaminated material will be packaged in Industrial Packages (IP-1,.IP-2, or IP-3, as defined in subpart 173.411) for transport unless demonstrated to qualify as their own shipping containers. The reactor vessel and internal components are expected to be transported in accordance with Part 71, as Type B. It is conceivable that the reactor, due to its limited specific activity, could qualify as LSA II or III. However, the high radiation levels on the outer surface would require that additional shielding be incorporated within the packaging so as to attenuate the dose to levels acceptable for transport.

Any fuel cladding failure that occurred during the lifetime of the plant is assumed to have released fission products at sufficiently low levels that the buildup of quantities of long-lived isotopes (e.g., 137Cs, 90Sr, or transuranics) has been prevented from reaching levels exceeding those that permit the major reactor components to be shipped under current transportation regulations and disposal requirements.

Transport of the highly activated metal, produced in the segmentation of the reactor vessel and internal components, will be by shielded truck cask. Cask shipments may exceed 95,000 pounds, including vessel segment(s), supplementary shielding, cask tie-downs, and tractor-trailer. The maximum level of activity per shipment assumed permissible was based upon the license limits of the available shielded transport casks. The segmentation scheme for the vessel and internal segments is designed to meet these limits.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XOI-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 3, Page 13 of 34 The transport of large intact components (e.g., large heat exchangers and other oversized components) will be by a combination of truck, rail, and/or multi-wheeled transporter.

Transportation costs for Classes A, B and C material requiring controlled disposal are based upon the mileage to the EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. The existing Barnwell facility rate schedule for non-Atlantic Compact members is used as the cost estimating basis for disposal of the Class B and C material.

Transportation costs for off-site waste processing are based upon the mileage to Memphis, Tennessee. Truck transport costs are estimated using published tariffs from Tri-State Motor Transit.[26]

3.5.6 Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal To the greatest extent practical, metallic material generated in the decontamination and dismantling processes is processed to reduce the total cost of controlled disposal. Material meeting the'regulatory and/or site release criterion, is released as scrap, requiring no further cost consideration. Conditioning (preparing the material to meet the waste acceptance criteria of the disposal site) and recovery of the waste stream is performed off site at a licensed processing center. Any material leaving the site is subject to a survey and release charge, at a minimum. Based on TLG's experience, rates were assumed for off-site processing as well as survey and release.

The mass of radioactive waste generated during the various decommissioning activities at the site is shown on a line-item basis in the detailed Appendix C, and summarized in Table 5.1. The quantified waste summaries shown in these tables are consistent with 10 CFR Part 61 classifications. Commercially available steel containers are presumed to be used for the disposal of piping, small components, and concrete. Larger components can serve as their own containers, with proper closure of all openings, access ways, and penetrations. The volumes are calculated based on the exterior package dimensions for containerized material or a specific calculation for components serving as their own waste containers.

The more highly activated reactor components will be shipped in reusable, shielded truck casks with disposable liners. In calculating disposal costs, the burial fees are applied against the liner volume, as well as the special handling requirements of the payload. Packaging efficiencies are lower for the highly activated materials (greater than Type A quantity waste), where high concentrations of gamma-emitting radionuclides limit the capacity of the shipping canisters.

Disposal fees are based upon estimated charges, with surcharges added for the highly activated components, for example, generated in the segmentation of the reactor vessel. The cost to dispose of the majority of the material generated from TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 14 of 34 the decontamination and dismantling activities is based upon Xcel Energy's current cost for disposal at EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. Disposal costs for the higher activity waste (Class B and C) were estimated using the last available Barnwell rate structure for non-Atlantic Compact members.

3.5.7 Site Conditions Following Decommissioning The NRC will terminate (or amend) the site license(s) if it determines that site remediation has been performed in accordance with the license termination plan, and that the terminal radiation survey and associated documentation demonstrate that the facility is suitable for release. The NRC's involvement in the decommissioning process typically ends at this point. Building codes and state environmental regulations dictate the next step in the decommissioning process, as well as the owner's future plans for the site.

There are varying degrees to which the Prairie Island site can be restored following the decommissioning of the two nuclear units.

The estimate presented herein includes the dismantling of the major structures to just below ground level, backfilling and the collapsing of below grade voids, and general terra-forming such that the site upon which the power block and supplemental structures are located is transformed into a "grassy plain." Certain facilities, which have continued use or value (e.g., the switchyard) are left intact.

3.6 ASSUMPTIONS The following are the major assumptions made in the development of the estimate for decommissioning Prairie Island.

3.6.1 Estimating Basis The study follows the principles of ALARA through the use of work duration adjustment factors. These factors address the impact of activities such as radiological protection instruction, mock-up training, and the use of respiratory protection and protective clothing. The factors lengthen a task's duration, increasing costs and lengthening the overall schedule. ALARA planning is considered in the costs for engineering and planning, and in the development of activity specifications and detailed procedures. Changes to worker exposure limits may impact the decommissioning-cost and project schedule.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 15 of 34 3.6.2 Labor Costs The craft labor required to decontaminate and dismantle the Prairie Island units will be acquired through standard site contracting practices. Craft labor costs were based upon information from Xcel Energy. Craft labor costs include applicable overheads and profit.

Xcel Energy, as the operator, will continue.to provide site operations support, including decommissioning program management, licensing, radiological protection, and site security. A Decommissioning Operations Contractor (DOC) will provide the supervisory staff needed to oversee the labor subcontractors, consultants, and specialty contractors needed to perform the work required for the decontamination and dismantling effort. The DOC will also provide the engineering services needed to develop activity specifications, detailed procedures, detailed activation analyses, and support field activities such as structural modifications.

Utility labor costs were provided by Xcel Energy. Average costs were provided by department or' work group and included payroll overheads. Decommissioning Operations Contractor (DOC) labor costs were based on utility labor costs with modified markups to account for employee benefits, DOC overhead and profit.

Severance costs were included as a separate expenditure within the estimate.

Based upon site overhead costs provided by Xcel Energy, an administrative and general cost (A&G) is included. This cost is based on the average annual A&G per person applied to each of the utility staffing positions (number of utility personnel assigned to the project). The A&G cost includes: site overhead costs directly required to support the site decommissioning staff.

Security, while reduced from operating levels, is maintained throughout the decommissioning for access control, material control, and to safeguard the spent fuel.

3.6.3 Design Conditions Activation levels in the vessel and internal components are modeled using NUREG/CR-3474.[27 I Estimates are derived from the curie/gram values contained therein and adjusted for the different mass of the Prairie Island components, projected operating life(s), and different periods of decay. Additional short-lived isotopes were derived from CR-0130 [28] and CR-0672 [29j and benchmarked to the long-lived values from CR-3474.

The control elements are disposed of along with the spent fuel (i.e., there is no additional cost provided for their disposal). Disposition of any control elements TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 3, Page 16 of 34 stored in the pool from operations is considered an operating expense and therefore not accounted for in the decommissioning estimate.

Activation of the reactor building is confined to the area around the biological shield. More extensive activation (at very low levels) of the interior structures within containment has been detected at several reactors and the owners have elected to dispose of the affected material at a controlled facility rather than reuse the material as fill on site or sending it to a landfill. The ultimate disposition of the material removed from the reactor building will depend upon the site release criteria applied, as well as the designated end use for the site.

3.6.4 General Transition Activities Existing warehouses are cleared of non-essential material and remain for use by the plant operator and its subcontractors. The plant's operating staff performs the following activities at no additional cost or credit to the project during the transition period.

  • Drain and collect fuel oils, lubricating oils, and transformer oils for recycle and/or sale.
  • Drain and collect acids, caustics, and other chemical stores for recycle and/or sale.
  • Process operating waste inventories. This estimate does not address the disposition of any legacy wastes and the disposal of operating wastes during this initial period is not considered a decommissioning expense.

Scrap and Salvage The existing plant equipment is considered obsolete and suitable for scrap as deadweight quantities only. Xcel Energy will make economically reasonable efforts

!to salvage equipment following final plant shutdown. However, dismantling techniques assumed for equipment in this analysis are not consistent with removal techniques required for salvage (resale) of equipment. Experience has indicated that some buyers wanted equipment stripped down to very specific requirements before they would consider purchase. This required expensive rework after the equipment had been removed from its installed location. Since placing a salvage value on this machinery and equipment would be speculative, and the value would be small in comparison to the overall decommissioning expenses, this analysis does not attempt to quantify the value that an owner may realize based upon those efforts.

TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document XOI-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Secion 3, Page 17 of 34 It is assumed, for purposes of this analysis, that any value received from the sale of scrap generated in the dismantling process would be more than offset by the on-site processing costs. The dismantling techniques assumed in the decommissioning estimate do not include the additional cost for size reduction and preparation to meet "furnace ready" conditions. With a volatile market, the potential profit margin in scrap recovery is highly speculative, regardless of the ability to free release this material. An allowance has been included for the survey and release of all metallic material released from the site.

Furniture, tools, mobile equipment such as forklifts, trucks, bulldozers, and other property is removed at no cost or credit to the decommissioning project. Disposition may include relocation to other facilities. Spare parts are also made available for alternative use.

The concrete debris resulting from building demolition activities is crushed on site to reduce the size of the debris. The resulting crushed concrete is used to backfill below grade voids, with the excess assumed to be removed from the site as recycled material at no cost or credit to the decommissioning program. The rebar removed from the concrete crushing process is disposed of as scrap steel in a similar fashion as other scrap metal as discussed previously.

Energ.

For estimating purposes, the plant is assumed to be de-energized, with the exception of those facilities associated with spent fuel storage (temporary power is run throughout the plant, as needed).

Replacement power costs are used to calculate the cost of energy consumed during decommissioning for tooling, lighting, ventilation, and essential services.

Insurance Costs for continuing coverage (nuclear liability and property insurance) following cessation of plant operations and during decommissioning are included and based upon current operating premiums. Reductions in premiums, throughout the decommissioning process, are based upon the guidance and the limits for coverage defined in the NRC's proposed rulemaking "Financial Protection Requirements for Permanently Shutdown Nuclear Power Reactors."' 30° The NRC's financial protection requirements are based on various reactor (and spent fuel) configurations.

3.7 COST ESTIMATE

SUMMARY

Schedules of expenditures are provided in Tables 3.1 and 3.2. The tables delineatethe cost contributors by year of expenditures as well as cost contributor (e.g., labor, materials, and waste disposal).

The cost elements are also assigned to one of three subcategories: "License Termination,"

"Spent Fuel Management,"

and "Site Restoration."

The subcategory "License Termination" is used to accumulate costs that are consistent with "decommissioning" as defined by the NRC in :its financial assurance regulations (i.e., 10 CFR §50.75). In situations where the long-term management of spent fuel is not an issue, the cost reported for this subcategory is generally sufficient to terminate the unit's operating license.

The "Spent Fuel Management" subcategory contains costs associated with the containerization and transfer of spent fuel to the ISFSI, and ýthe management of the ISFSI until such time that the transfer of all fuel from this facility to an off-site location (e.g.,

geologic repository) is complete. It also includes spent fuel management expenses incurred prioruto the cessation of plant operations.

"Site Restoration" is used to capture costs associated with the dismantling and demolition of buildings and facilities demonstrated to be free from contamination. This includes structures never exposed to radioactive materials, as well as those facilities that have been decontaminated to appropriate levels. Structures are removed to a depth of three feet and backfilled to conform to local grade.

As discussed in Section 3.5.1, it is not anticipated that the DOE will accept 'the GTCC waste prior to completing the transfer of spent fuel. Therefore, the cost of GTCC disposal is shown in the final year of ISFSI operation. While designated for disposal at the geologic repository along with the spent fuel, GTCC waste is still classified as low-level radioactive waste and, as such, included as a "License Termination" expense.

Decommissioning costs are reported in 2008 dollars. Costs are not inflated, escalated, or discounted over the period of expenditure (or' projected lifetime of the plant). The schedules are based upon the detailed activity costs reported in Appendix C, along with the timeline presented in Section 4.

4. SCHEDULE ESTIMATE The schedule for the decommissioning scenario considered in this study follows the sequence presented in the AIF/NESP-036 study, with minor changes to reflect recent experience and site-specific constraints. In addition, the scheduling has been revised to reflect the spent fuel management plan described in Section 3.5.1.

A schedule or sequence of activities for the DECON alternative is presented in Figure 4.1. The scheduling sequence assumes that fuel is removed from the spent fuel pool approximately five and one-half years following the permanent cessation of plant operations. The key activities listed in the schedule do not reflect a one-to-one correspondence with those activities in the cost table, but reflect dividing some activities for clarity and combining others for convenience. The schedule was prepared using the "Microsoft Project Professional 2003" computer software.[31]

4.1 SCHEDULE ESTIMATE ASSUMPTIONS The schedule reflects the results of a precedence network developed for the site decommissioning activities, i.e., a PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique)

Software Package. The work activity durations used in the precedence network reflect the actual man-hour estimates from the cost table, adjusted by stretching certain activities over their slack range and shifting the start and end dates of others. The following assumptions were made in the development of the decommissioning schedule:

o The fuel handling area of the Auxiliary Building is isolated until such time that all spent fuel has been discharged from the spent fuel pool to the ISFSI. Decontamination and dismantling of the storage pool is initiated once the transfer of spent fuel is complete.

o All work (except vessel and internals removal) is performed during an 8-hour workday, 5 days per week, with no overtime. There are eleven paid holidays per year.

o Reactor and internals removal activities are performed by using separate crews for different activities working on different shifts, with a corresponding backshift charge for the second shift.

o Multiple crews work parallel activities to the maximum extent possible, consistent with optimum efficiency, adequate access for cutting, removal and laydown space, and with the stringent safety measures necessary during demolition of heavy components and structures.

o For plant systems removal, the systems with the longest removal durations in areas on the critical path are considered to determine the duration of the activity.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 4, Page 2 of 5 4.2 PROJECT SCHEDULE The period-dependent costs presented in Appendix C are based upon the durations developed -in the schedules for decommissioning. Durations are established between several milestones in each project period; these durations are used to establish a critical path for the entire project. In turn, the critical path duration for each period is used as the basis for determining the period-dependent costs. A second critical path is shown for the spent fuel storage period, which determines the release of the auxiliary building for final decontamination. A project timeline is provided in Figure 4.2.

5. RADIOACTIVE WASTES The objectives of the decommissioning process are the removal of all radioactive material from the site that would restrict its future use and the termination ofthe NRC license. This currently requires the-remediation of all radioactive material at the site in excess of applicable legal limits.

Under the Atomic Energy Act,[321 the NRC is responsible for :protecting the public from sources of ionizing radiation. Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations delineates the production, utilization, and disposal of radioactive materials and processes. In particular, Part 71 defines radioactive material as it pertains to transportation and Part 61 specifies its disposition.

Most of the materials being transported for controlled burial are categorized as Low Specific Activity (LSA) or Surface Contaminated Object (SCO) materials containing Type A quantities, as defined in 49 CFR Parts 173-178. Shipping containers are required to be Industrial Packages (IP-1, IP-2 or IP-3, as defined in 10 CFR § 173.411). For this study, commercially available steel' containers are presumed to be used for the disposal of piping, small components, and concrete.

Larger components can serve as their own containers, with proper closure of all openings, access ways, and penetrations.

The volumes of radioactive waste generated during the various decommissioning activities at the site are shown on a line-item basis in Appendix C, and summarized in Table 5.1. The quantified waste volume summaries shown in these tables are consistent with Part 61 classifications. The volumes are calculated based on the exterior dimensions for containerized material and on the displaced volume of components serving as their own waste containers.

The reactor vessel and internals are categorized as large quantity shipments and, accordingly, will be shipped in reusable, shielded truck casks with disposable liners. In calculating disposal costs, the burial fees are applied against the liner volume, as well as the special handling requirements of the payload. Packaging efficiencies are lower for the highly activated materials (greater than Type A quantity waste), where high concentrations of gamma-emitting radionuclides limit the capacity of the shipping canisters.

No process system containing/handling radioactive substances at shutdown is presumed to meet material release criteria by decay alone (i.e., systems radioactive at shutdown will still be radioactive over the time period during which the decommissioning is accomplished, due to the presence of long-lived radionuclides). While the dose rates decrease with time, radionuclides such as 137Cs will still control the disposition requirements.

The waste material produced in the decontamination and dismantling of the nuclear units is primarily generated during Period 2. Material that is considered potentially contaminated when removed from the radiological controlled area is sent to processing facilities in Tennessee for conditioning and disposal. Heavily contaminated components and activated materials are routed TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 5, Page 2 of 3 for controlled disposal. The disposal volumes reported in the tables reflect the savings resulting from reprocessing and recycling.

For purposes of constructing the estimate, the cost for disposal at the EnergySolutions facility was used as a proxy for future disposal facilities. Separate rates were used for containerized waste and large components, including the steam generators and reactor coolant pump motors.

Demolition debris including miscellaneous steel, scaffolding, and concrete was disposed of at a bulk rate. The decommissioning waste stream also included resins and dry active waste.

Since EnergySolutions is not currently able to receive the more highly radioactive components generated in the decontamination and dismantling of the reactor, disposal costs for the Class B and C material were based upon the last available published disposal rates for Barnwell for non-Atlantic Compact members. Additional surcharges were included for activity, dose rate, and/or handling added as appropriate for the particular package.

6. RESULTS The cost projected to promptly decommission the two Prairie Island nuclear units is estimated to be $1,514 million. The estimate is based on numerous fundamental assumptions, including regulatory requirements, project contingencies, and low-level radioactive waste disposal practices and high-level waste management considerations.

The primary cost contributors, identified in Table 6.1, are either labor-related or associated with the management and disposition of the radioactive waste. Program management is the largest single contributor to the overall cost. The magnitude of the expense is a function of both the size of the organization required to manage the decommissioning, as well as the duration of the program. It is assumed, for purposes of this -analysis, that Xcel Energy will oversee the decommissioning program, using a DOC to manage the decommissioning labor force and the associated subcontractors: The size and composition of the management organization varies with the decommissioning phase and associated site activities.

As described in this report, the spent fuel pool will remain operational for fifteen years following the cessation of operations. The pool will be isolated to allow decommissioning operations to proceed in and around the pool area. Over the fifteen year period, the spent fuel will be packaged for transfer to the ISFSI.

The cost for waste disposal includes only those costs associated with the controlled disposition of the low-level radioactive waste generated from decontamination and dismantling activities, including plant equipment and components, structural material, filters, resins and dry-active waste. As described in Section 5, disposition of the low-level radioactive material requiring controlled disposal is at the EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. Highly activated components, requiring additional isolation from the environment, are packaged for geologic disposal. The cost of geologic disposal is based upon a cost equivalent for spent fuel.

A significant portion of the metallic waste is designated for additional processing and treatment at an off-site facility. Processing reduces the volume of material requiring controlled disposal through such techniques and processes as survey and sorting, decontamination, and volume reduction. The material that cannot be unconditionally released is packaged for controlled disposal at one of the currently operating facilities. The cost identified in the summary table for processing is all-inclusive, incorporating the ultimate disposition of the material.

Removal costs reflect the labor-intensive nature of the decommissioning process, as well as the management controls required to ensure a safe and successful program. Decontamination and packaging costs also have a large labor component that is based upon prevailing wages. Non-radiological demolition is a natural extension of the decommissioning process. The methods employed in decontamination and dismantling are generally destructive and indiscriminate in inflicting collateral damage. With a work force mobilized to support decommissioning TLG Services, Inc.

Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Document X01-1586-002, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 6, Page 2 of 3 operations, non-radiological demolition can be an integrated activity and a logical expansion of the work being performed in the process of terminating the operating license. Prompt demolition reduces future liabilities and can 'be more cost effective than deferral, due to the deterioration of

-the facilities (and therefore the working conditions) with time.

The reported cost for transport includes the tariffs and surcharges associated with moving large components and/or overweight shielded casks overland, as well as the general expense (labor and fuel) of transporting material to the destinations identified in this report. For purposes of this analysis, material is primarily moved overland by truck.

Decontamination is used to reduce the plant's radiation fields and minimize worker exposure.

Slightly Contaminated material or material located within a contaminated area is sent to an off-site processing center (i.e., this analysis does not assume that contaminated plant components and equipment can be decontaminated for uncontrolled release in-situ). Centralized processing centers have proven to be a more economical means of handling the large volumes 'of material produced in the dismantling of a nuclear unit.

License termination survey costs are associated with the labor intensive and complex activity of verifying that contamination has been removed from the site to the levels specified by the regulating agency. This process involves a systematic survey of all remaining plant surface areas and surrounding environs, sampling, isotopic analysis, and documentation of the findings.

The remaining costs include allocations for heavy equipment and temporary services, as well as for other expenses such as regulatory fees and the premiums for nuclear insurance. While site operating costs are greatly reduced following the final cessation of plant operations, certain administrative functions do need to be maintained either at a basic functional or regulatory level.
