Companies that generate hazardous wastes are now required by Federal regulations to establish a waste minimization program. Accordingly, in Fiscal Year 1988 the Westinghouse Hanford Company formed a waste minimization team organization to help implement this program. One purpose of the team is to document successful waste minimization efforts and to track dollar savings realized. A number of significant actions have been successful, resulting in the savings of $7.6 million for Fiscal Year 1988. This document describes Westinghouse Hanford Company waste minimization actions that were successful. 2 refs., 2 tabs.
