The following source reduction measures have been implemented. <br />r <br />• SLAC has been redesigning the equipment, as they fail due to age, to eliminate <br />water intrusion and to provide better heat transfer for critical components. <br />• When feasible, SLAC reconditions oil by removing particulates and moisture and <br />returning it to electrical equipment. <br />• Where appropriate, air-cooling is used to cool dielectric oils and cleclrical <br />equipment. <br />SLAC has implemented, and will continue to implement, such measures where <br />technically and economically feasible. <br />Oils from mechanical equipment such as pumps and compressors and from machining <br />equipment are usually changed in accordance with equipment requirements and <br />performance. <br />SLAC continues to improve the service life of its electrical equipment; however, results <br />are not measurable at this time since incremental improvements do not result in <br />immediate reduction in waste generation at this time. The variation in the quantity of oil <br />generation in 2014 (9612 pounds) was significantly more than 2010, due largely to <br />differences in the size and quantity of equipment serviced. It is expected that this waste <br />quantity will vary from year to year, but will decrease over the long term as a result of <br />continuous improvements in operations and equipment servicing. <br />Por SNL <br />5.4 Equipment Maintenance <br />Waste oil is generated as a result of the replacement of oils used to operate mechanical <br />equipment. The change out of oiI is conducted in accordance with each piece of <br />equipment`s requirements and performance. <br />Since 2011, the contracted TSDF notified SNLICA waste oil code 221 would require <br />testing for halogens, otherwise it should be coded as 223. The change in the coding <br />resulted in the decrease in waste generated in 2014. <br />September 1, 2015 SB 14 Report III -9 <br />
