Phased Construction Completion Report for Decontamination Laundry Demolition at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory
This Phased Construction Completion Report (PCCR) documents completion of demolition, waste disposition, and slab stabilization activities of Building 2523 (Decontamination Laundry) for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The Decontamination Laundry is located directly north of the intersection of White Oak Avenue and the 2519 Access Road. This demolition scope included the removal of the above-grade structures and facility components associated with Building 2523. This scope included the removal of Building 2523 (and all remaining contents inside), Trailer 2523A (and all remaining contents inside), an above-grade wastewater tank, and a wooden access porch connecting Buildings 2523 and Trailer 2523A. On the north side of Building 2523, above-grade portions of selected remaining foundations/stairs were removed from former Building 2517 to make room to stage waste containers. Building 2621 is west of the Laundry Building and Buildings 2547 and 2649 are to the east, while Building 2525 is to the north. Building 2523 is located within Bethel Valley Exposure Unit (EU) 3. The total area of the EU is approximately 39 acres. The area within EU 3 is bounded by First Street on the west, Central Avenue on the north, Third Street on the east and south. The slab of Building 2523 has been stabilized with a cap of flowable fill concrete and asphalt to contain residual radiological contamination and to provide surface suitable for vehicle parking. No below-grade demolition actions were performed during this task.
