[External_Sender] NRC Clarifications Requested -- Environmental Report Date: Wednesday, January 06, 2021 4:45:33 PM Importance: High

Jean, Based upon the history of the Lead Cascade Request for Disposals (RFD) and/or shipments of hazardous waste, our most conservative estimate is one 55-gallon drum of hazardous waste during the HALEU Demonstration Program (3-year period) and two 55-gallon drums of hazardous waste annually during the potential continued 10-year period of operations. These estimates would not cover an unanticipated calamity type situation.

These conservative estimates would keep ACO in the Very Small Quantity Generator (generate < 220 lbs. hazardous waste per month) category with the Environmental Protection Agency, though we will continue to follow the guidance of a Large Quantity Generator (generate > 2,200 lbs. of hazardous waste per month), much like we did during Lead Cascade operations.

Please let me know if you would like to see the Lead Cascade history behind this information.
