  • Regulatory agency and licensee are preparing for the site restoration of Kori unit 1, the first commercial NPP in Korea, scheduled for 2031. Developing regulatory guidelines and strategies is essential for effective restoration work. Unfortunately, Korea does not have experience of site restoration of commercial NPPs. Therefore, it is important to review cases from experienced countries to establish a strategy and regulatory standards. The U.S. has had numerous soil remediation experiences using RESRAD and MARSSIM. However, formalized evaluation methodologies for subsurface soil have not yet been established in MARSSIM. This survey focused on subsurface soil remediation by reviewing the five decommissioned NPPs under regulation of the US NRC. Overall process of remediating a contaminated subsurface soil and groundwater was reviewed to identify considerations and lessons that could be applicable in Korea. In addition, an applied methodology for evaluation of contaminated subsurface soil and related major issues between regulatory agency and licensees were reviewed in detail to support establishment of remediation strategy for Kori unit 1.

  • The Republic of Tajikistan has ten former uranium mining sites. The total volume of all tailings is approximately 55 million tonnes, and the covered area is more than 200 hectares. The safe management of legacy uranium mining and tailing sites has become an issue of concern. Depending on the performance requirements and site-specific conditions (location in an arid, semiarid or humid region), a cover system for uranium tailings sites could be constructed using several material layers using both natural and man-made materials. The purpose of this study is to find a feasible cost-effective cover system design for the Degmay uranium tailings site which could provide a long period (100 years) of protection. The HELP computer code was used in the evaluation of potential Degmay cover system designs. As a result of this study, a cover system with 70 cm thick percolation layer, 30 cm thick drainage layer, geomembrane liner and 60 cm thick barrier soil layer is recommended because it minimizes cover thickness and would be the most cost-effective design.

  • The current status and prospect of decommissioning technology development at KAERI are reviewed here. Specifically, this review focuses on four key technologies: decontamination, remote dismantling, decommissioning waste treatments, and site remediation. The decontamination technologies described are component decontamination and system decontamination. A cutting method and a remote handling method together with a decommissioning simulation are described as remote dismantling technologies. Although there are various types of radioactive waste generated by decommissioning activities, this review focuses on the major types of waste, such as metal waste, concrete waste, and soil waste together with certain special types, such as high-level and high-salt liquid waste, organic mixed waste, and uranium complex waste, which are known to be difficult to treat. Finally, in a site remediation technology review, a measurement and safety evaluation related to site reuse and a site remediation technique are described.

  • The risk of the soil and groundwater that contaminated with petroleum is well known. The behaviour of petroleum in subsurface is governed by combined mechanism of several processes such as volatilization, adsorption, dissolution, biodegradation, etc. Large number of methods of remedial investigation and plan, therefore, have been developed and practiced. In application of the method, it is required engineer understands the mechanism of fate of petroleum in subsurface. So sampling procedures is very important for investigating the type of contaminants and their concentration as well as the selection of items that must be tested. For designing the remedial method, it is also required engineers to verify the structural formation of geology and the locational conditions of a land in detail, to familiar with the regulation, and to investigate the problems that can be happened after the performance was begun. In this paper it is shown that the investigation methods of contaminated land and the proper selection procedure of remedial method using the case history.

  • 국내 폐금속광산 일대에서 비소 및 중금속의 발암 및 비발암 위해성을 근거로 복원 기준치를 설정하였다. 폐금속광산일대의 주요한 노출 경로는 부지내 폐광석과 광미로부터 직접적인 오염물 흡입과 지하수를 통한 부지내 및 외 섭취의 경로로 구분된다. 지하수의 오염원은 폐광석과 광미 침출로부터의 오염과 갱구 유출로부터의 오염 및 지질매체 자체에 의한 오염이 설정되었다. 높은 오염 수준에 대해서 높은 오염성분감소비와 폐광산일대의 다양한 배경농도로부터 복원기준치를 설정 했을때, 토양 및 지하수의 복원기준치는 비소 위해도의 영향이 매우 큰 것으로 평가되었다. 비소의 높은 독성은 복원 기준치를 매우 낮게 형성했고, 위해도가 낮은 아연과 카드늄은 높게 설정되었다. 궁극적으로 오염성분 감소비에 따른 복원기준치 설정은 오염성분의 노출 경로 차단이 복원 목표치를 현실화시킬 수 있음을 보여주었다.

  • The objectives of this study is to find problems in the legal and institutional background on our information system for soil contaminated sites. To achieve this abjective, we compared our system with those of federal and New Jersey state governments of the United States. We found that we have no comprehensive guideline on how various information from the contaminated sites should be manipulated. In our system, some regulations on information management were found only in a few prescriptions on detection, detailed investigation, and remediation phases. However, we found that provisions, detailed procedures, and related guidelines for the information management are provided in tile case of the federal and New Jersey state governments. Also, public involvement and disclosure of tile information for the remediation procedure are designated in their legal systems.
