Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) FY 1993 Site Specific Plan

Technical Report · Tue Sep 01 04:00:00 EDT 1992

OSTI ID:10133060

This is the third in a series of annual Site Specific Plans (SSPS) that will follow the Department of Energy`s (DOE`s) annual Environmental Restoration and Waste Management (EM) Five-Year Plan (FYP). Types of EM projects described in this plan include Corrective Activities, Environmental Restoration (ER), Waste Management, and Technology Development. The Technology Development section is applicable to only some installations. Technology Development programs seek to resolve major technical issues and rapidly advance beyond current technologies for EM activities. Using the DOE`s EM FYP dated September 1992 as a foundation, this SSP includes a description of projects and planning information for Fiscal Year (FY) 1992 through FY 1998, with particular emphasis on FY 1993. Individuals should focus their review of this document on an evaluation of the FYP planning and implementation process. Additionally, evaluation of the specific program scope, schedules, and costs should utilize the specific installation`s Activity Data Sheets (ADS) available at public reading rooms located near each DOE installation. It should be noted that the proposed plans described in this document are subject to change for the following reasons: (1) the results of more detailed field characterization or other unforeseen field conditions may necessitate a different remedial action approach, (2) regulatory requirements may change, or (3) necessary project funds may be delayed. Changes to last year`s SSPs are reflected in this plan.
