'Tel, handling container; previously disposed of pre-1970 wastes in various forms and containers; and finally, low-level waste products, from the processing of double-shell-tank waste, in the form ofgrout. ' In accordance with the requirements of NEPA, as amended, and implementing regulations of the Council 0m Environmental Quality (C[V) published i 4VCFKl00, this EIS was written early i the decision-making process to ensure that environmental values and alternatives are fully considered before any decisions are made that might lead to adverse environmental impacts or limit the choice of reasonable alternatives. This process will also help ensure that the public is fully informed and is involved in the decision-making process. To comply with the NEPA's requirement for early preparation of environmental documentation,t is[l has eenpreoaredeurlyin thedi posul eisfnnpro es , Kswi hany major action, iti expected that once disposal decision i made, subsequent detailed engineering may enhance specific waste retrieval, treatment, handling, immobilization and/or disposal processes evaluated in the EIS. However, the processes evaluated in this document have been chosen such that, when finally implemented for any of the options, the processes would not be expected to result in environmental impacts that significantly exceed those described here. The DOE believes that bounding analyses performed in this EIS meet the requirements of CEQ regulations for analysis of all reasonably forseeable significant adverse impacts. o Implementation of defense waste disposal under the alternatives described in this EIS will be done in compliance with the letter and spirit of applicable federal and state environmental statutes, regulations and standards. To ensure that impacts ofspecific processes used during disposal implementation do not differ significantly from the results of the analyses set forth in this document, DOE will conduct environmental reviews of the specific processes as finally proposed. 0n the basis of these reviews, DOE will determine in accord with agency guidelines what additional NEPA documentation is required. The DOE anticipates that a supplemental EIS will be prepared prior to a decision on a disposal option for single-shell tank waste. This document is not intended to provide the environmental input necessary for siting or ` constructing x geologic repository. For analysis of environmental impacts ^falternatives involving geologic disposal, generic designs for either an offsite or onsite repository were used. Detailed environmental documentation required by the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 will be prepared before a geologic repository is sited, constructed and operated. &futore EIS to address site selection is expected to include a discussion of cumulative impacts of the repository program at all candidate sites, including Hanford. Other NEPA documentation relevant to this EIS includes the supplement to ERDA-1538, Double-Shell Tanks for Defense High-Level Radioactive Waste Storage at the Hanford Site (DOE/EIS-0063), and the Final Environmental Impact Statement--Operation of PUREX and Uranium Oxide Plant Facilities (DOE/EIS-0089). (The draft PUREX EIS with an addendum constituted the final PUREX EIS.) vii `
