1. Case S-2 1 Case Study 2:Hazardous Waste Characterization at a DOE Laboratory Treatment and Storage Facility
2. Case S-2 2 DOE Hypothetical National Laboratory 15 miles from a city of 3 million
Rural area when built
Now surrounded by a rapidly growing suburban population
5 miles of land, much forested
Laboratory performs research in nuclear non-proliferation, energy, environmental sciences, and other scientific and technical fields
3. Case S-2 3 DOE Hypothetical National Laboratory Because it is a laboratory, HNL generates a wide variety of waste streams, many of them subject to RCRA.
RCRA regulation at HNL is by the State Department of Environmental Quality
4. Case S-2 4 Lab Worker
5. Case S-2 5 Case Study 2: Hazardous Waste Characterization The objective of this case study is to develop a system to minimize sampling costs and still have the data needed to correctly manage HNL’s RCRA wastes.
