Disposal of remotely handled transuranic waste from Oak Ridge National Laboratory: A strategy for NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act of 1969) compliance

Technical Report Campbell, A

Transuranic (TRU) radioactive waste contains alpha-emitting radionuclides with atomic numbers greater that 92 and half-lives greater than 20 years. The US Department of Energy's (DOE) transuranic waste results from defense-related research and production activities. Prior to 1970, DOE disposed of TRU waste by shallow land burial. Because of environmental concerns, disposal policy was changed, and since 1970, all of DOE's TRU waste has been placed in retrievable storage at DOE facilities. Future disposal plans call for deep geological isolation of all TRU waste at the DOE Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) near Carlsbad, New Mexico. The Oak Ridge National Laboratorymore »« less
Annotated bibliography National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents for Sandia National Laboratories

Technical Report Harris, J

The following annotated bibliography lists documents prepared by the Department of Energy (DOE), and predecessor agencies, to meet the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for activities and facilities at Sandia National Laboratories sites. For each NEPA document summary information and a brief discussion of content is provided. This information may be used to reduce the amount of time or cost associated with NEPA compliance for future Sandia National Laboratories projects. This summary may be used to identify model documents, documents to use as sources of information, or documents from which to tier additional NEPA documents.

Hanford Site National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Characterization

Technical Report Duncan, Joanne; Burk, Kenneth; Chamness, Mickie; ...

This document describes the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Hanford Site environment. It is intended to provide a consistent description of the Hanford Site for the many environmental documents being prepared by DOE contractors concerning the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). No statements regarding significance or environmental consequences are provided. This year’s report is the eighteen revision of the original document published in 1988 and is (until replaced by the nineteenth revision) the only version that is relevant for use in the preparation of Hanford NEPA, State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)more »« less

What about compliance with NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act)

Conference Sigal, L; Cada, G

In 1986, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued its Environmental Auditing Policy Statement (Fed. Regist. 51:25004). The policy encourages federal agencies to voluntarily develop comprehensive auditing programs to ensure environmental compliance. Since that time, environmental auditing programs have been developed and implemented by many federal agencies, particularly the Department of Defense (DOD). Most of these programs focus on those acts having implementing regulations with standards and/or permit requirements (e.g., Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act). Seldom, if ever, has compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), our basic national charter for protection of themore »« less
