For some basic ideas on waste management, see Journal of Chemical Education, 65, pp. A64-A68 (1988). Although not comprehensive, this journal provides a good general description on the topic. However, because many localities have specific requirements on toxic substance control, always check with local authorities.

Some additional description of the objectives and implementation of the present Hanford Waste Management plan is presented in the first part of this review paper. The discussion is deliberately restricted, however, since this technology has been adequately reviewed in detail by various speakers and authors (1-5). Recent papers by Lenneman (2), Smith (4), and Larson (5) are particularly informative. A bibliography of publicly available literature concerning radioactive waste management at Hanford has also just lately been published (6). 

Justification for new method or ATP can be related to, for example, the reduction of cost analysis, limitation of interferences, improvement of safety and waste management compared with the approved method. The method must be presented according to the USEPA format. For ATP, an in-depth comparison between ATP and USEPA approved methods must be produced with a two-column method comparison, providing a detailed discussion of a number of specific aspects each in its own section. The method development information is published in the Federal Register after proposal by USEPA to approve the ATP or new method. Information can be a detailed background and summary of the method, a discussion of the development of QC acceptance criteria, a description and discussion of the interlaboratory validation study, others studies (for instance of method limitations). The study plan is submitted to USEPA for review and comment, prior to conducting all studies. Lastly, the...

Process waste operations include the initial solidification of the liquid process residuals, packaging the solidified waste and other solid process residuals in waste barrels, loading of waste barrels on storage carts, and emplacement of waste barrels in shielded interim storage in Room 109. A complete description of the types and expected quantities of waste that will be generated in the HCF is contained in Chapter 9, Radioactive and Hazardous Waste Management. 

Part III comprises a thorough description of the roles of clays in environmental protection and degradation. The environmental impacts of clay mining, beneficiation and clay-related industries and the natural processes by which clays protect the environment are explained in the initial chapters of Part III. The next chapters introduce the application of clays and their derivatives to resist pollution, recycling of industrial waste products and waste managements (for both toxic and non-toxic wastes).

I have spent relatively little time on these papers, not because they are not of interest, but because they are descriptions of historical facts on the development and maturation of Nuclear Safi Philosophy, the Nuclear Power Plant SafeQr Convention, and the principles and responsibility in Radioactive Waste Management and left little room for editorializing. 

I will refer to Mr. Balz s excellent description of the status of R D in Radioactive Waste Management, and would like to enq>hasize the fundamental question that he says is yet unanswered - whether die certainly valuable scientific/technical results from R D programs necessarily contribute to the information needed by decision makers and licensing authorities for a repository in deep geological formations or by the public to gain confidence in the concepts and techniques us for safe long-term disposal of radioactive waste Should we not be applying the techniques of decision... 

This chapter gives a review of the design approaches and features that are definitive for innovative SMR performance in the areas of economics, sustainability (including resource utilization, waste management and environmental impacts), safety, proliferation resistance and physical protection. This review is based on the information provided in Sections 1.6.1 to 1.6.5 of the SMR design descriptions given in Annexes.
