Five pails were transferred from main vault to mini vault. Note that there was already one pail in the mini vault, so at present there are six pails staged for packaging into F-308s.

Nb#10, Pail 295, Tray 4A
C#4, Pail 277, Tray 4C
Ta#64, Pail 273, Tray 5C
Ta#62 with wire scanner, Pail 256, Tray 7A
TiC#5, Pail 279, Tray 3A

The target index has been updated accordingly (see attached but note that the summary does not reflect the sixth pail).

An informal inspection of the main Pail Handling Tool was performed today as the final one for the year. Note that the main formal annual inspection was performed June 18, 2024 for this year.

The attachment to this e-log serves as a record of all inspections for this tool throughout 2024.

The spare tool was not inspected as it was not in service this year.

A safety walkaround was completed for the ISAC Hot Cells and Target Hall Areas.

The resulting spreadsheet can be found on DocuShare as Document-242733.

Main deficiencies identified:

• Hot Cells:
  • NHC right manipulator gripper stuck (known, repair planned)
• Target Hall:
  • 50% of overhead light bulbs burnt out (David Wang contacted Electrical Services to rectify)
  • One RH camera for target pit not working (Travis Cave notified)

Action has been taken on all deficiencies.

 Five shielding blocks are moved from ITE to storage area ( one of them is sitting on B2 as limit of room) for target stations maintenance in 2025 winter shut down .

ITH:MP1 is deteriorating by watching on ITH:CG1 and CG2 readings and investigation in pit. A fault 17644 has been issued. this pump will be replaced in March when general fielding in vacuum pit is reasonable for the job.

UC#46 was placed in pail# 301 in spot 1B and was 26.3mSv/hr when removed from the SHC. See attached PDF for vault 
details.

 The spent UC#47 was moved from the south hot cell to the spent target vault placed in pail #302 in spot 1C of the vault, it was 24.5mSv/hr when removed from the south hot cell. See attached for vault details.

Today (2025-01-20), six flasks were loaded in preparation for shipment with the following targets: C#4, TiC#5, Ta#64,Ta#62, Nb#10, SiC#44

Some of the pails (256, 273, 279, 277) required replacement of the wire rope cable with new style, 30 ft length, as requested by CNL. A lifting label was also applied to these pails. Some of the pails (295, 298) already had the appropriate cable and lifter label.

At the time of writing this log:

• The second crimped lifting loop has not yet been applied to each pail.
• The locks have not yet been applied to the flasks.

The mini-storage vault is now EMPTY. The mini-storage vault has been swiped and checked for contamination.

The target index spreadsheet has been updated (attached).

ITW/ITE pit general annual cleaning up were done. all concrete floor and TM equipment surface are vacuum  cleaned. HV cage inside and blue nylon insulators were wiped by paper.

 David and I cleaned both cages in ISAC1 electric room, all done.

A parasite target has been transferred from SHC to NHC. It is a job to reduce SHC field for coming SHC entry job. The transfer is successful.
