The panel will address progress in the disposition of US DOE mixed hazardous/radioactive waste streams. In addition, the panel will examine changes in mixed waste requirements based upon revisions to US DOE Order 435.1, changes in US Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations Part 61 (10CFR61) along with any new requirements associated with the site-wide disposal contract.  Accordingly, the panel will address selected institutional/regulatory topics including but not limited to: removal of US EPA conservatively assigned Hazardous Waste Numbers (HWNs); allowances for blending/consolidating wastes; and managing Greater Than US NRC Regulated Class C waste (GTCC) – like waste including activated/contaminated fuel debris and hardware not managed as HLW.

Panelists include: Mike Auble, AMWTP - Idaho Treatment Group; John Gilmour, Director Solid Waste and F Area Ops, Savannah River Nuclear Solutions; Ken Grumski, VP Federal Programs, Waste Control Specialists; Scott Wade, Asst.
