In this review, the projected dose estimates of radionuclide inventories disposed in the active Low-Level Waste Burial Grounds (LLBG) since September 26, 1988 are provided using the dose methodology developed in the Performance Assessment (PA) analyses. These estimates have been compared with performance objectives defined in the Department of Energy (DOE) document, DOE Order 435.1 (DOE 19 99a), and its companion documents (DOE 19 99b and 1 999c). All performance objectives are satisfied currently and operational waste acceptance criteria and waste acceptance practices continue to be sufficient to maintain compliance with performance objectives. Estimates of inventory and associated dose estimates from future waste disposal actions are unchanged from previous year's evaluations which indicate potential impacts well below performance objectives. Therefore, future compliance with DOE Order 435.1 is expected.
