Abstract

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) is amending its regulations to improve low-level waste (LLW) manifest information and reporting. The amendments will: Improve the quality and uniformity of information contained in manifests that are required to control transfers of LLW that is ultimately intended for disposal at a land disposal facility; establish a set of forms that allows LLW to be tracked from its origin, and serves as a national Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest to meet NRC, Department of Transportation (DOT), and State and Compact information requirements; require LLW disposal site operators to electronically store container-specific manifest information; and require the disposal site operators to be capable of reporting the stored Uniform Manifest information on a computer-readable medium (e.g., magnetic disks or tapes).
