Alternate Retrieval A-105 Application Assessment Report

Abstract

This report summarizes the historical development of the Confined Sluicing End Effector (CSEE) technology as well scarification technology. We also summarize the systems integration and deployment of that technology in the Gunite and Associated Tanks (GAAT) at the Oak Ridge Reservation where the retrieval system successfully removed the remaining sludge and heel in the eight tanks for tank closure and disposition. We also summarize the lessons learned from the deployment at Oak Ridge.
