Panel Session 90: US DOE Mixed Waste: Proposals for Dealing with Problematic Waste Streams and Policy Changes

This panel focused on generation and management of low level and mixed low-level radioactive wastes, challenges for disposition, innovative solutions applied at DOE sites, and collaboration among sites to ensure that waste disposition pathways are understood. In addition, potential policy initiatives were discussed including depleted uranium, elemental mercury, and treatment of legacy mixed waste components. As part of the introduction, Theresa Kliczewski provided an overview of why this panel is relevant: problematic mixed waste streams still exist across the DOE cleanup complex. Theresa noted that the DOE EM Headquarters Office of Waste and Materials Management (EM-4.2), for which she is employed with, continues to work with the DOE cleanup sites on a path forward for these problematic mixed waste streams. As part of this effort, EM-4.2 requested that the Energy Facility Contractors Group (EFCOG) perform a review of all the DOE sites problematic mixed waste streams. Panelists with presentations: Challenging Waste Streams: Disposition of Depleted Uranium Oxide Conversion Product (Douglas Tonkay); EFCOG WMWG Challenging Waste Subgroup (Tammy Monday); Mercury Waste Challenges (John Wrapp); Legacy Large Mixed Waste Components (Kalli Shupe)

Panel Session 76: US DOE Problematic Waste Streams and Policy Impacts

This panel provided an overview of DOE problematic waste streams including status and path forward. Potential policy implications that exist now and/or in the future were discussed. Topics included, greater-than-Class C low level waste, depleted uranium, and sodium waste. The panel also discussed potential treatment options for these wastes. As part of the introduction, Renee Echols welcomed the audience and went over a quick overview of what would be discussed on the panel. Theresa Kliczewski provided an overview of why this panel is relevant to US Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management: there are problematic waste streams that still exist across the DOE cleanup complex. Theresa noted that the DOE EM Headquarters Office of Waste and Materials Management (EM-4.2), for which she is employed with, continues to work with the DOE cleanup sites on a path forward for these problematic waste streams. Presentations proposed include: 1 - Overview of Greater-Than-Class C Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Path Forward (Theresa Kliczewski, US DOE EM (USA)); 2 - Status of Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for Disposition of Depleted Uranium Oxide Conversion Product Generated from DoE's Inventory of Depleted Uranium Hexafluoride (Jaffet Ferrer-Torres, US DOE (USA)); 3 - Problematic Waste Streams on the Oak Ridge Reservation (John Wrapp, UCOR (USA)); 4 - K Basin Sludge Removal (Ryan Covert, CH2M Hill PRC (USA)); 5 - Providing Technology Solutions for Treatment of Challenging Waste Streams (Tammy Monday, Perma-Fix Environmental Services (USA)); 6 - Treatment of Problematic Reactive Metal Waste Using the GeoMelt{sup R} In-Container Vitrification (ICV{sup TM}) Process (Ron Mitchell, Veolia Nuclear Solutions (USA))

Panel Session 105: US DOE LLW On-Site Disposal: LLW Disposal Facility Federal Review Group Review Process

This panel focuses on risk-informed provision for waste management of US DOE radioactive wastes. Detailed information on the high-level radioactive waste interpretation Federal Register Notice will be discussed to better educate the audience in understanding that interpretation. The Co-Chairs and panelists each introduced themselves. Presentations proposed include: 1 - Overview of Public Comments on the Proposed High-Level Radioactive Waste Interpretation (Theresa Kliczewski, US DOE EM (USA)); 2 - ECA Presentation on Implementation Approaches and Expectations for Radwaste Management; DOE Order 435.1 (Kara Colton, Energy Communities Alliance (USA)); 3 - 2019 Grassroots Efforts to Clarify HLW Definition (Rick McLeod, Savannah River Site Community Reuse Organization - SRSCRO (USA))
