Panel Reporter:   Karthik Subramanian (USA)

This panel session focuses on the approach of direct feeding the low-activity (DFLAW) waste from Hanford’s double-shell tanks to the Waste Treatment Plant (WTP) Low-Activity Waste Vitrification facility. This approach is the quickest means of beginning to treat and dispose of tank waste and provides many benefits to the overall River Protection Project mission. The One System organization was established to perform integration functions between DOE-ORP, DOE-RL, Tank Operations Contractor (TOC), Waste Immobilization and Treatment Plant, and other Hanford Site contractors to successfully and efficiently commence the Hanford tank waste treatment and disposition mission. WM attendees interested in the innovative DFLAW approach, status and direction of RPP Mission, and effective One System management should attend this panel.
