Characterization of Class A low-level radioactive waste 1986--1990. Volume 5: Appendix F

Abstract

Under contract to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research, the firms of S. Cohen & Associates, Inc. (SC&A) and Eastern Research Group (ERG) have compiled a report that describes the physical, chemical, and radiological properties of Class-A low-level radioactive waste. The report also presents information characterizing various methods and facilities used to treat and dispose non-radioactive waste. The characterization of Class-A low-level waste is based primarily on information contained in the Manifest Information Management System (MIMS), an electronic database compiled by the National Low-Level Waste Management Program. The Program is managed by EG&G Idaho, Inc. for the Department of Energy. Supplementary sources of information include reports and studies conducted under the auspices of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Department of Energy, regional low-level waste Compacts and unaffiliated States, and trade organizations. The database characterizes low-level waste shipped for disposal from 1986 to 1990. Volume 1 contains the Executive Summary, Volume 2 presents the Class-A waste database, Volume 3 presents the information characterizing non-radioactive waste management practices and facilities, and Volumes 4 through 7 contain Appendices A through P with supporting information. iii VOLUME 5 APPENDIX Appendix F presents additional information for the Executive Summary (Vol. i) and Main Report (Vol. 2 and 3).
