Hotline About Hotline The hotline allows the decommissioning and dismantlement community to post problems in a specific decommissioning and dismantlement (D&D) area and get solutions from the subject matter specialists. Users can also search for previously published problems and their solutions.	Technology About Technology Technology provides information on decommissioning and dismantlement related technologies including robotics and any associated demonstrations. It provides technology descriptions, benefits, limitations, and associated links and documents. It also provides vendor information, technology and demonstration fact sheet reports, and search capabilities.	Web Crawler About Web Crawler The custom decommissioning and dismantlement web crawler searches and retrieve information from decommissioning and dismantlement related websites. The crawler provides the user with a listing of best-matching web pages, usually with a short summary containing the document's title or parts of the text.	Mobile System About Mobile System The mobile system component provides access to important D&D KM-IT features through wireless devices. The D&D community users can access the following modules from their mobile devices: vendor directory, specialist directory, hotline, technology information, picture library, lessons learned and best practices, and the fixative module.
Lessons Learned About Lessons Learned Lessons learned provides a repository of documents published by the decommissioning and dismantlement community users. This allows them to share their experience with the community.	Best Practices About Best Practices Best practices provides a repository of decommissioning and dismantlement best practices documents that the user community can upload to the system.	Picture Video Library About Picture & Video Library The video/picture library allows community users to upload decommissioning and dismantlement technology and demonstration videos and pictures to the decommissioning and dismantlement KM-IT system. The videos and pictures could then be viewed by the decommissioning and dismantlement community.	Document Library About Document Library Weekly reports published by the ALARA center include the status of the decommissioning and dismantlement activities that have taken place at various centers. It includes the list of ALARA center activities for consecutive weeks. This feature makes the reports available to the entire decommissioning and dismantlement user community.
Specialist Directory About Specialist Directory The specialist directory provides a directory of decommissioning and dismantlement experts in different areas along with their contact information. The user can search the specialist directory by name or by area of interest.	Vendors About Vendors Vendor management provides a directory of decommissioning and dismantlement vendors along with their contact information.	Collaboration Tools About Collaboration Tools Collaboration tools provides information-sharing mechanisms such as decommissioning and dismantlement news, events calendars, links, message boards, and frequently asked questions (FAQs). This allows the decommissioning and dismantlement community to interact with fellow users.	Training About Training The training component provides training videos related to decommissioning and dismantlement work, ALARA Centers’ training material and custom training for the decommissioning and dismantlement community.

Dismantlement	300 Area, Hanford Site	Explosive Demolition of Buildings 337, 337B and the 309 Stack at the Hanford’s 300 Area	On October 9, 2010, Buildings 337, 337B, and the 309 Exhaust Stack located in the 300 Area at the Hanford Site, were safely razed by explosive demolition. The 337 facility and adjacent buildings were built in the early 1970s to support the Fast Flux Test Facility and the Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor Program at Hanford. The 309 Exhaust Stack was utilized at the Plutonium Recycle Test Reactor (PRTR) during the 1960’s to support development of the plutonium fuel cycle. The proper applicati	Download
Dismantlement	Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)	Historical Hazard Identification Process for D&D	The historical hazard identification process describes the participants and steps of the process. The results of this effort are provided to the project manager in two formats. The first is the binder(s) containing the collected information in a systematic format. The second is a hazards map, which summarizes and graphically depicts the hazard information contained in the binders. The project manager uses this information as a baseline to start the project execution plan.	Download

Dismantlement	Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)	Open Air Demolition of Asbestos Gunite by Using Track Mounted Wet Cutting Saw	“LLNL’s B328 building is a metal structure with a corrugated metal exterior façade. The walls of the structure consist of a corrugated metal exterior surface, a one & one-half inches (1.5’’) of Gunite, and four inch (4’’) thick fire bricks subsurface. In addition, there are 6” x 6”x 1/2” tube steel columns and beams for structural support. In order to size reduce the structure and prevent exposure of personnel to asbestos material, a track mounted wet cutting saw with a diamond blade was use	Download
