* Adobe® PDF.is a universal file format that preserves all
the fonts, formatting, graphics, and color of any source
document, regardless of the application and platform
used to create it.
* Tagged Image File Format (TIFF)
* A tag-based image format. TIFF is designed to promote
universal interchanges of digital images.
* Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
* The architecture, organization, techniques, practices,
and procedures that collectively support the

* Digital Signature
* A transformation of a message using an asymmetric
cryptosystem such that a person having the initial
message and the signer's public key can accurately
determine whether the transformation was created
using the private key that corresponds to the signer's
public key and whether the message has been altered
since the transformation was made.
* Digital Certificate
* An electronic verification that allows for PKI use. The
certificate has security requirements that cannot be
compromised by other than fraud.

Generic Issues with
DOE Submissions
* Transmittal letters may not have a complete
description of enclosures, and it is at times unclear
which enclosures are submitted in electronic form
* CD-ROMs may not include instructions on their use
* No 'road map" to the construction of the CD-ROM
* File structures on some CD-ROMs are very complex
* Large number and size of individual files on CDROMs
* Some files won't open; require special software to
open and view

* Following the September 11 attacks, White House
ordered all federal agencies to do an immediate
o
review of all public documents and restrict access to
potentially sensitive information
Potentially sensitive information is any unclassified
information, not otherwise protected from disclosure
by law or regulation, which has been determined to
cause an adverse consequence against DOE facilities

Automated Operations Security Screening
University of Nevada, Las Vegas has developed
software to aid general categorization tasks
DOE provided documents (potentially sensitive
information or non potentially sensitive information)
to test our software for automating categorization
* DOE documents were used as a basis for automatic
categorization
* We would like to present a description of the
software, called Ecdysis, and report categorization
test results

DOE documents are analyzed manually and
automatically to extract knowledge
Knowledge will be used by Ecdysis for the task of
categorization
Ecdysis categorizes documents as either potentially
sensitive information or non potentially sensitive
information using a greater threshold favoring
potentially sensitive information
Documents determined as potentially sensitive
information are set aside for manual review

How Ecdysis Works
0 Training the software
* Knowledge extraction
- Identify features from known potentially sensitive
information and non potentially sensitive information
documents
- Establish relationships between features and calculate
probabilities
* Categorization
- Extract features from the document that need to be
categorized
- Decide category (potentially sensitive information or non
potentially sensitive information) based on the probabilities
of these features

Background on Posting Documents
to the Internet
*
e
*
*
To make the documents available to the public, OCRWM
determined it would post selected technical documents
on the OCRWMIYucca Mountain Project (YMP) Internet
(1998)
Program' documents such- as the Viability Assessment,
Site Recommendation (SR), and Repository
Environmental Impact Statements (EIS)' have been placed
on the Internet
For the draft EIS and initial SR documents, the Internet
also provided a channel for receiving public comments
Internet distribution enables OCRWM to comply with the
federal Paperwork'Reduction Act

Issues raised about public availability of Internet
access for documents include:
-
-
-
Not all people have access to the Internet
The length of time and amount of paper needed to print a
document from a home computer was a problem
There was difficulty reading such a large document online
* Document file sizes
* Phone service providers
* Age of computers
* Lack of sophistication of hardware and software
* OCRWM has made hard copies available upon

- PDF (portable document format)
- Images scanned from hard copy (tif, gif, jpg)
- ASCII (plain text)
- Source files such as word processing, spreadsheet, and
presentation documents

Electronic Formats
e
OCRWM Web site uses industry standard HTML, PDF,
and images
-
fHTML is easier to read on screen and downloads quickly
because it is text-based; available to anyone with a browser
-
PDF is easier to print and looks just like the printed
version; available to anyone via a free reader
-
Images are used to post cited reference documents from
the records system

For example, SR and Final EIS documents
- Initially posted in PDF for timely release
* Divided by section regardless of size (see listing of file sizes
in backup)
e
Two PDF types are available - smaller files for faster
download and larger files for higher-quality printing
- Also converted to HTML with links to cited references
*
Focus has been on posting in HTML
-
In general, PDF files supplement HTML for users' ease of

Assumptions in 1998
*
User has
- Slowest machine
- Slowest modem
- Internet browser software capable of reading the Web page
*
Drove OCRWM decision to favor HTML and to limit
PDF file size to 3 MB or less
YUCCA MOUNTAIN PROJECT
BSC PresentationsNRC Tech ExchangeYMSulltvan/Savarise_12/10/02 ppt
15
Lessons Learned
Fragmenting the PDF document to small sizes (less than
3 MB) is more problematic than helpful
-
User might receive a one-page graphic after 15-minute download
-
User must stand by to download the next section or fragment
-
User must piece the document together
Provide new capabilities as technology evolves
-
For example, optimize PDF files so that pages can be viewed as
they are downloaded
Be consistent with commonly accepted standards that
users are accustomed to
-
Frames for navigation
-
Common browsers and interfaces

TRANSMITTAL OF REPORTS ADDRESSING KEY TECHNICAL ISSUES (KTI)
This letter transmits the following KTI agreement items, due to be provided to the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC) in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2001, on compact disc (enclosure 1) and
in hard copy (enclosure 2).
ANL-EBS-GS-000001. Analysis and Model Report (AMR" - Geochemistry Model y
Validation Report Material Degradation and Release Model (CLST.5.04, ENFE.5.03,
RT.4.03). The report presents the model for estimating the long-term geochemical
behavior of waste packages and waste forms, specifically (I) the extent to which
criticality control materials remain in the waste package, (2) the extent to which fissile
material will be carried out of the waste package by infiltrating water, and (3) the
chemical composition and amounts of minerals and other solids left in the waste package.
This model validation report incorporates the lessons learned from the recent model
validation issues raised by NRC.
ANL-EBS-GS-000002. AMR - Geochemistry Model Validation Report External
>
Accumulation Model (CLST.5.04, ENFE.5.03, RT.4.03). The External Accumulation
Model predicts the accumulation of fissile material in fractures and voids in the rock
beneath a degraded waste package. This model validation report incorporates the lessons
learned from the rec'ent model validation issuesraised by NRC

List and Schedule for Model Validation Reports related to Criticality (CLST.5.04, l/
ENFE.5.03, RT.4.03). Note that the list of scheduled reports includes the original list of
17 reports (as provided to NRC at the October 2000 Criticality Technical Exchange), the
new consolidated list of reports, and the expected delivery dates of the reports to the
NRC. The estimated completion dates noted in the list are subject to change as a result of
future planning.
CAL-EBS-NU-000017. Calculation - Radiolytic Species Generation from Internal Waste v
Package Criticality (CLST.5.05). This report addresses the development of information i
on accelerated corrosion rates for Zircaloy due to radiolytic chemical specie generation
(primarily nitric acid) during postulated static criticality events. The focus of the
calculation is increased nitric acid produced by a criticality. A white paper, included as
an attachment to the current calculation, addresses the issue of how the nitric acid may
effect corrosion rates. Based on the amount of nitric acid produced, scavenging effects in
corrosion products are expected to prevent sufficient accumulation of nitric acid to
significantly affect corrosion rates. A final assessment (geochemistry evaluation) will be
performed prior to license application to confirm these expectations, as per the existing
agreement (CLST 5.05).
)/ Letter Report - Excavation-Induced Failures (SDS.3.03). This report documents the
U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) observations of excavation-induced fractures in the
Exploratory Studies Facility and the Enhanced Characterization of the Repository Block
Cross Drift.
Five additional documents due in FY 2001 have been delayed. Four of these are in final review
and are expected to be available in November 2001. These include:
Crushed Tuff Hydrothermal Column Experiment Report (ENFE.2.12)
Mean vs Median Justification (SDS. 1.02, SDS.2.03)
ANL-EBS-MD-000049. AMR - Multiscale Thermohydrologic Model (TEF.2.09)
USGS Regional Model (USFIC.5.09)
The remaining document, ANL-EBS-MD-000030. AkMR - Ventilation Model (RDTME.3.01,
TEF.2.07), has been delayed to resolve technical issues, and expected to be available in
January 2002.
