Technical paper - No

Corrosion products - will generally assume Oxide form (which is also typically 
the conservative option)

Fission products -typically choose most conservative class unless there is an 
obvious reason not to

Transuranics - Oxide form is usually the obvious choice for Plutonium based on 
the source being UO2 (10CFR20 doesn't give you options for Am/Cm). However, 
there is also industry OE (e.g. Bruce Power event) that demonstrates that as 
the source term ages, the alpha recoil interactions can change the retention 
class (i.e. increase solubility). If you have a significant uptake of TRUs, it 
is probably worth the effort to attempt to validate the retention class 
assumptions.

Have not had this discussion in any detail with a regulator.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [powernet] Technical Basis (paper) for Solubility Class

Does anyone have a technical basis document they would be willing to share 
justifying the use of solubility class ALI and DAC values in 10CFR20 Appendix  
B?

If NO:


1.       What are you using?

2.       Are you using the most restrictive value?

3.       If no, how did you determine the proper class?

4.       Have you been challenged by regulators on this?

A private email response may be appropriate!!

Thanks!!
