This Process Knowledge Summary Report summarizes the information collected to satisfy the transportation and waste acceptance requirements for the transfer of transuranic (TRU) waste between the Materials and Fuels Complex (MFC) and the Radioactive Waste Management Complex-Advanced Mixed Waste Treatment Project (AMWTP). The information collected includes documentation that addresses the requirements for AMWTP and the applicable portion of their Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) permits for receipt and treatment of TRU waste. This report has been prepared to address contact-handled TRU waste generated by the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) at MFC. The TRU waste will be shipped to AMWTP for characterization, potential super compaction, final packaging, and certification for shipment to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). This Process Knowledge Summary Report includes information regarding the generation process, the physical form, radiological characteristics, and chemical contaminants of the TRU waste, prohibited items, and packaging configuration. This report, along with the referenced supporting documents, will create a defensible and auditable record for waste originating from MFC.
