This paper discusses the high-level radioactive waste that has accumulated at the Savannah River Site and is stored in large underground steel tanks. Programs to remove the soluble waste from the storage tanks, decontaminate it by removing cesium and strontium, and dispose of the resulting low-level alkaline salt solution are described. Recent modifications and the current status of the in-tank precipitation and the saltstone processes are described.
