Abstract

A monitored exhaust system has been designed for use in venting the Flanged Tritium Waste Containers (FTWCs) at LANL. This system will provide controlled exhaust and emissions monitoring for the FTWCs, and also provide general area exhaust around the venting operations to measure any emissions which may bypass the primary vent system. A full description of the process and need for the system is described in the Pre-Construction Application for this project. This document describes the commissioning testing performed on the FTWC vent system to prepare it for use. The system has been tested and shown to meet ANSI standard requirements and is fully suitable for use.

West Valley Demonstration Project (WVDP) Annual Site Environmental Report (ASER) for Calendar Year 2025

The report, prepared for the U.S. Department of Energy West Valley Demonstration Project office (DOE-WVDP), summarizes the environmental protection program at the WVDP for calendar year (CY) 2025. Monitoring and surveillance of the facilities used by the DOE are conducted to verify protection of public health and safety and the environment. The report is a key component of the DOE’s effort to keep the public informed of environmental conditions at the WVDP. The quality assurance protocols applied to the environmental monitoring program ensure the validity and accuracy of the monitoring data. In addition to demonstrating compliance with environmental laws, regulations, and directives, the evaluation of data collected in 2025 continued to indicate that WVDP activities posed no threat to public health or safety, or to the environment.
