SOS
The 600 Area Purgewater Storage and Treatment Facility (600 PSTF) began waste sanagement operations in January of
1990. The 600 PSTF is located in the 600 Area of the Hanford Facility, north of the 216-8-3 Pond. The 600 PSTF is
designated as a miscellaneous Unit (SOS) and is subject to the requirements of VAC 173-303-680. The 600 PSTF could
consist of up to six aboveground_ 3,785,400-liter (1,000,000-gallon) miscellaneous units. As of August 1996, only
two Units have been constructed, and only are is used. The miscellaneous units are used for storage and treatment
of purgewater generated from groundwater mnitoring trolls Located throughout the Hanford Facility. The purgewater
1s generated when a grgtsduater monitoring well is developed orgroundwater samples are taken. The purgewater from
groundwater monitoring wells is transported by tanker truck and pumped di reetly into the miscellaneous units- The
total process design capacity for the storage of purgewater at the 600 PSTF is 22,712,400 liters
(6,000,000 gallons). Currently, only a capacity of 7,570,800 liters (2.000,000 gallons) is available.
T04
Treatreent of purgewater by soLar evaporation takes place in miscellaneous units. Approximately 52,995 liters
(14,000 .9allons) per day of purgewater can be treated by solar evaporation based on evaporation rates calculated for
the Hanford Facility and assuming all six missal laneous units are in use. Raw water is added periodically to the
miscellaneous Units to provide a aaens for dust control when the units are dry. The current capacity for treatment
of purgewater at the 600 PSTF is 17,665 liters (4,666 gotten*) per day, although the total process design capacity
for treatment is 52,995 liters (14,000 gallons) per day.
IV. DESCRIPTION OF DANGEROUS WASTES
A. DANGEROUS WASTE NUMBER -Enter the four digit numb from Chapter 173.303 WAC tot each listed dangerous waste you will handle. N you handia
dmgerow wart= wMch aro not Nrt*d M Chapter 173 .303 WAC, enter the four digit numberia) that describes the characteristics and/or the toxic can,
tammants of those dangerous wastes.
B. ESTIMATED ANNUAL QUANTITY - For each listed watt& entered In column A estimate the quantity of that watt* that will be handled an an annual basis.
For each characteristic or toxic contaminant entered M column A estimate the total annual quantity of am the non- gated wastep) that will handled which
possess that characteristic or contaminant
C. UNIT OF MEASURE -For each quantity entered in column B ant" the unit of measure code. Units of mecum which mantles used and the appropriate codes
am:
ENGLISH UNIT OF MEA SURE CODE METRIC UN IT OF MEASU RE CODE

It facility -cords use any other unit of measure for quantity, the units of mossUm mat be converted into one of the required units of measure taking Into =count the
appropriate derrhy or apeeinc gravity of the waste.
O. PROCESSES
1. PROCESS CODES:
For FMad dangerous waste: For each gated d*ngarow waste entered In column A select the eodeW from the list of process codes contained in Section 111 to
Indicate how the warts will be stated, owned, and/or diapoud of at the facility.
For =n-listed dangerous wastes-, For each characteristic or toxic contaminant entered M Column A. select the codeW from the got of process codas contained In
Section 111 to indicate all the processes that WIN tea used to atom, treat, and/or dispose of as the non-listed dangerous watt" that possesa that characteristic or
toxic contaminant
Note: Four spaces am ymvidad for entering procsee codas If men are needed: 111 Enter the first three as de parted abow: 12) Enter e000' in the extreme light
box of item N-D(l): and (3) Enter in the space provided on page 4, the gne number and the additional cads(y.
2. PROCESS DESCRIPTION: If a code le not listed for a process that sum be used, describe the process In the space provided on the form.
NOTE: DANGEROUS WASTES DESCRIBED BY MORE THAN ONE DANGEROUS WASTE NUMBER - Dangerous wastes that can be described by more than one Warne
Number shall be described on the form as follows:
1. Ssleet one of the Darrgerous Waste Numbers and enter It In column A. On the same Nan complete columns B, C. and D by estimating the total annual quantity of
the waste and describing all the pmesatso to be wed to treat store, and/or dispose of the west*.
2. In column A of the next one enterthe other Dangerous Waste Number that can be wed to describe the waste. In column D(2) on that line enter 9ncludad with
,bow' and make no other entries on that Nna.
3. Repeat step 2 far such other Dangerous Waste Number that can be used to describe the dangerous waste.
