The hearing addresses the restrictions which preclude the Department of Energy (DOE) from recycling contaminated materials for reuse, in lieu of purchasing new materials. The DOE owns millions of tons of low-level contamined metal which could be decontaminated and re-used without risk. Witnesses discuss the state of technologies which exist to decontaminate the metals. Statements of government and industry officials and documents submitted for the record are included.
