Title	News Inquiry From Local Media Outlet
Event Description	Below are the responses to questions BWXT received from [a reporter] at the News & Advance of Lynchburg, VA, regarding the closure of the Barnwell Facility in South Carolina. Q: I understand that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has announced new guidelines for the storage of low-level radioactive material since the disposal site in Barnwell, S.C. plans to close. Does B&W ever use the Barnwell Facility for any disposal needs, or will that facility's closure affect B&W operations here in any way? If so, I'd like to discuss those potential effects and perhaps write an article about the issue. A: Annually, the B&W Lynchburg facility generates approximately 15 to 20 cubic feet of Class B and C waste, which was disposed of at the Barnwell site in South Carolina. However, the Lynchburg facility has not been significantly impacted by Barnwell's closure. The licensee will notify the NRC Resident Inspector.
