Background

• Operational efficiencies

• Removal of resins

• Timing of waste classification

• Limited disposal access and capacity

• What are the practical considerations in operating a facility that bear on blending of LLRW?

• NRC regulations only require waste to be classified when its ready for disposal.

What advantages or disadvantages might there be to classifying it earlier?
