The 224-T Transuranic Waste Storage and Assay Facility (224-T TRUSAF) began waste management operations in September<br />
of 1985. This unit is a RCRA-ctanpliant container storage unit located within the 224-T building (refer to attached<br />
drawings).<br />
Facility.<br />
The 224-T Building is located southeast of the T Plant Cortplex in the 200 West Area of the <strong>Hanford</strong><br />
This building consists of two sections. The weste rn two-thirds of the building are used for the<br />
RCRA-compliant storage of containerized transuranic mixed waste and low-level mixed waste. The eastern one-third of<br />
the building consists of six radfatogically-contaminated process cells that contain equipment that was flushed when<br />
the process was terminated. These process calls were sealed from the rest of the building in 1975. It is unknown<br />
whether any regulated material remains within the process cells.<br />
SOl<br />
The 224-T TRUSAF provides a centralized storage unit for storage of containerized transuranic mixed waste and<br />
low-level mixed waste from various <strong>Hanford</strong> Facility operations and from other U.S. Department of Energy and<br />
U.S. Department of Defense facilities. The transuranic mixed waste will be transferred to an onsite treatment,<br />
storage, aril/or disposal (TSD) unit or oflefte TSD facility to be prepared for transfer to, and disposal at, the<br />
Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) in Carlsbad, New Mexico or at other approved disposal site(s). The 224-T TRUSAF<br />
also will store retrieved containers of transuranic mixed waste from the low-Level Burial Grounds (LLBG). Before<br />
storage at the 224-T TRUSAF, the LLBG transuranic mixed waste will be retrieved for characterization and<br />
reprocessing at an onsite 7SD unit or offsite TSD facility. Assay of the retrieved waste will consist of<br />
nondestructive testing to conffrm the fissile isotope content and to confirn the absence of prohibited items before<br />
shipment to the WIPP or to other approved,disposal site(s). The total process design capacity for storage at the<br />
224-T TRUSAF is approximately 416,395 liters (110,000 gallons).<br />
IV. DESCRIPTION OF DANGEROUS WASTES<br />
A. DANGEROUS WASTE NUMBER - Enter the four digit number f ro m Chapter 173-303 WAC for each li sted dange rous waste you will hand le. If you.handle<br />
dange rous waste, which em not astad In Chapter 173-303 WAC, enter the four digit number(s) that deseribee the characteristics and/or the toxic earn.<br />
tommants of those dangsmw wastes.<br />
B. ESTIMATED ANNUAL QUANTITY - For each noted waste entered In column A estima te the quant ity of that waste that w il<br />
l be handl ed on an annu al b asis.<br />
For each characte ri stic or to xic contaminant entered In column A estimate the tot al annual quant ity of all the non41sted waste (s) that w il l be hand led which<br />
