Regulatory analysis for closure of a treatment and storage tank as a landfill
Technical Report

OSTI ID:10142563
The Hanford Site single-shell tanks (SST) represent the most challenging waste remediation activity for the Hanford Site. Activities are currently underway to develop and demonstrate waste retrieval technologies to meet milestones established in the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order` and to ultimately accomplish closure of the SSTs. A closure plan, providing detailed information for closure of the SSTS, will be submitted to the State of Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) by the year 2004. Because of the high radiation associated with SST waste and the technical difficulties associated with waste retrieval, a potential closure alternative for the SSTs may include leaving one or more of the tanks and residual waste in place and performing final closure in accordance with the closure and postclosure care requirements for a landfill. This document provides an analysis of the regulatory requirements applicable to closing a hazardous waste treatment and storage tank system as a landfill.
