63 - US Disposition Issues for Orphan-and High Activity Mixed Waste Streams
|
|
|
The panel will focus on disposition issues of orphan and high activity mixed radioactive waste and viable approaches for resolution of these issues. Mixed waste generators have worked with treatment vendors and the lone commercial mixed waste disposal site in the US over the past several years to successfully disposition a number of mixed waste streams including some which only recently seemed problematic. However, orphan waste streams persist along with significant inventories of 10-100nCi/g alpha mixed waste that was formerly managed as TRU but will not be headed for WIPP. It must now be treated to meet LDR requirements and be disposed of at the DOE Nevada Test Site mixed waste disposal cell which has both a limited capacity and disposal window. Panelists will include; Jeff Mousseau, Bechtel BWXT Idaho, LLC.; Glenn Siry, WSRC SRS; Ken Hargis, LANL; Jhon Carilli, US DOE NSO; Renee Echols, Permafix; and Christine Gelles, DOE EM HQ (USA).
