LLW/MLLW National Disposition Strategy Gary R. Peterson, P.E. U.S. Dept. of Energy

GOAL To develop a long-range corporate strategy to manage LLW/MLLW

Specifically the LLW/MLLW National Disposition Strategy will:  Integrate site waste disposition plans.  Examine MLLW streams without a current treatment or disposal path, i.e. “orphan” waste streams.  Ascertain any bottlenecks and/or gaps in LLW/MLLW treatment or disposal.  Assess DOE and commercial disposal options.  Possibly recommend a corporate LLW/MLLW data system.

Phases  The LLW/MLLW National Disposition Strategy will be developed in two phases.  Phase I will examine selected DOE sites with a significant quantity of EM LLW/MLLW  Phase II will examine those DOE sites not included in Phase I.

Phase I Sites  Oak Ridge  Savannah River Site  Idaho National Lab  Hanford (to include the Office of River Protection)  Fernald Closure Project  Miamisburg Closure Project  Portsmouth Project  Paducah Site

Current Status  Developed a draft Waste Breakdown Structure (WBS) to categorize LLW/MLLW streams.  Collected LLW/MLLW data from Phase I sites.  Data was collected from each site “as is”. No effort was made to correlate waste data.

Current Status (Continued)  Listed MLLW orphan waste streams from each Phase I site.  Developed a preliminary draft of the Phase I National Disposition Strategy Report and distributed for comment.

Waste Information Management System (WIMS)  WIMS was developed by the Hemispheric Center for Environmental Technology, Florida International University, under DOE sponsorship.  We are considering the use of WIMS as part of the corporate LLW/MLLW data collection system.

Waste Information Management System  WIMS can be found at:  There is no need for a user name or password at this time.

Draft Waste Breakdown Structure (WBS)

Waste Breakdown Structure (WBS)  The WBS categorizes LLW/MLLW streams by site, waste stream, treatment and disposal site.  The purpose is to provide a consistent basis for comparing LLW/MLLW streams from various sites.  Currently in draft.

Level 2 – Generator Site Generator Site ID 03 Hanford 04 Pads 08 Ports 07 SRS 02 From Level 1 Fernald 05 Mound 06 To Level 3 – Waste Class Oak Ridge 01

Notes For the Treatment Site and Disposal Site levels (5 & 6), we will also include an R or T designator to indicate rail or truck transport mode.

Next Steps  Gather data, per the WBS, on off-site LLW/MLLW streams from the Phase I sites.  Map the off-site waste streams in an integrated schedule. (WIMS?)  Conduct a gap analysis on the Phase I waste streams.  Consider the possibility of a centralized LLW/MLLW database.
