Control disposal

LandtiUing of Solid Wastes Landfilling involves the controlled disposal of solid wastes on or in the upper layer of the earth s mantle. Important aspects in the implementation of sanitary landfills include (1) site selection, (2) landfimng methods and operations, (3) occurrence of gases and leachate in landfills, (4) movement and control of landfill gases and leachate, and (5) landfill design. The landfilling of hazardous wastes is considered separately.

The supply of a new consumer product should not be authorized if it is considered that it would be necessary to specify operational procedures to be followed for its disposal so as to limit doses to acceptable levels. In practice, no administrative system for ensuring the controlled disposal of products that are in the public domain seems feasible. However, if consumer products that are no longer used are returned to the original supplier or to a central point, the accumulated sources are likely to require regulatory control and should properly be managed as radioactive waste.

This was brought on by the growing pressure to avoid or reduce environmental pollution from waste polymers and plastics, which were accumulating widely on land and in oceans due to careless disposal, and because of the decreasing availability of landfill space for controlled disposal. Options available then, and now, were landfill, incineration, recycle, and controlled environmental degradation. Environmental degradation at that time was almost always referred to as biodegradation... 

The AEC proposal received a cool response from its Advisory Committee of State Officials, which met in Washington on 5 March 1959. The state representatives complained that the area of sole AEC jurisdiction remained undefined it was unclear, for example, whether the states could monitor gaseous and liquid effluents from a nuclecir reactor. They also objected to the sections of the bill that granted exclusive authority to the AEC. On the other hand, they "did not indicate an eagerness to accept total responsibility" for the functions the amendment allowed the states to take over. The California delegate expressed dissatisfaction that the AEC would control disposal of waste materials in...

A common misconception is that trash or waste destined for placement in a landhll is simply being dumped into a hole in the ground. This may be the case in old trash dumps, but a landfill is a controlled disposal environment.
