Hanford Site surface soil radioactive contamination control plan for fiscal year 1992

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6058705
The Surplus Facilities and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) closures program is responsible to the US Department of Energy Field Office, Richland, for the safe and cost-effective surveillance, maintenance, and decommissioning of surplus facilities and RCRA closures at the Hanford Site. This program is also responsible for the Radiation Area Remedial Action (RARA) work that includes the surveillance, maintenance, decontamination, and/or interim stabilization of inactive burial grounds, cribs, ponds, trenches, and unplanned release sites. This plan addresses only the RARA activity requirements for managing and controlling the contaminated surface soil areas associated with these inactive sites until they are remediated as part of the Hanford Site environmental restoration process. All known RARA and non-RARA contaminated surface soil areas are listed in this document so that a complete list of the sites requiring remediation is in one document. Specific organizational responsibility for management and control of these sites is shown in Appendix A.
