Evaluation of Proposed Disposal of 331-M Standards in Trenches

[摘要] Fifteen uranium standards and 1 bag of uranium scrap from 331-M were evaluated for disposal as low-level waste in slit trenches. The evaluation in this report assigned the inventory limits for each pathway/scenario for generic waste to the 331-M standards' waste, except for the intruder scenarios. The air and radon limits for generic waste are directly applicable to the 331-M standards' waste. The inventory limits for the groundwater pathway for generic waste are lower than those that could be calculated for the 331-M standards waste if its slower leaching rate were considered.
