waste as would be the case with the
other waste to be treated in each
alternative; it would thus not be
shipped to WIPP for disposal. Ecology,
a cooperating agency on this EIS, has
requested the following modification to
its Foreword in response to that change:
Ecology acknowledges that
subsequent to publishing the draft EIS,
DOE has revised its preferred alternative
to propose that waste from specific
Hanford tanks containing what DOE
believes might be mixed TRU waste be
treated at Hanford through the WTP.
This change does not alter Ecology’s
expectations concerning this waste.
Because Ecology has had, and continues
to have, legal and technical concerns
with any Hanford tank waste being
classified as mixed TRU waste, Ecology
has always assumed that the waste
would be treated at Hanford through the
WTP. Ecology expects that the end date
for completing treatment of Hanford’s
tank waste will not be altered by
treating the waste from these specific
tanks through the WTP.
Regarding DOE’s preferred alternative
for waste management, (Section S.7.3 of
the Summary and Section 2.12 of the
main volume) DOE would not send
LLW and MLLW from other DOE sites
to Hanford for disposal (with some
limited specific exceptions) at least
until the WTP is operational, consistent
with DOE’s proposed settlement
agreement with the State of Washington.
Off-site waste would be addressed after
the WTP is operational subject to
appropriate NEPA review. Although the
Draft EIS considers the cumulative
impacts of the potential receipt of GTCC
LLW at Hanford, DOE is preparing a
separate EIS on GTCC LLW disposition.
However, similar to its preference
regarding the importation of LLW and
MLLW, DOE announces that it does not
prefer to import GTCC LLW to Hanford
at least until the WTP is operational.
