NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKEDenvironmental and human costs of waste production, treatment and disposal should also betaken into account).Sustainable development should be taken into account as one of the relevant considerations inconsidering the development of the site IWS and of waste management policy.Traffic Light SystemThe NDA Traffic Light System is used to describe the status of on inter-site transfers.A ‘RED’ status is where Site A has the transfer in their LTP as an opportunity. However, Site Bdoes not have any recognition of the transfer in their baseline. In fact it may be defined as anexclusion in Site B’s baseline. There are therefore a number of issues that remain to beresolved. Site A must produce a Framework Plan to resolve these issues and reach agreementwith Site B on the transfer. Site A may also use the red status to highlight future strategieswhere Site B has yet to be identified.An “AMBER” status is where Site A has the transfer in their LTP programme as an opportunity.Site B also has the transfer in their LTP as an opportunity. The scope, schedule and cost of thetreatment, storage and disposal of waste or nuclear material should be in the donor sites LTPuntil the transfer is enabled via change control. The recipients sites LTP will be amended toreflect the transfer. The two sites are working together to resolved the actions identified in theFramework Plan. The sites have demonstrated that the transfer is technically feasible.However, there remain a number of stakeholder engagement and/or other issues to be resolvedbefore the transfer can be agreed.A “GREEN” status is where Site A has the transfer in its Baseline and Site B also has thetransfer in its Baseline. The actions in the Framework Plan have been completed. Fullstakeholder engagement has also been completed and the transfer authorisation is in place.There may remain some minor issues which still need to be resolved on the detailed operationallevel but there are no known “showstoppers”. The transfer is reflected in both sites IntegratedWaste Strategy documents.UndesignateUndesignate is the revocation of a direction by the Secretary of State to the NDA for thedesignation of an installation, site or facility. The direction can only be revoked once theSecretary of State (jointly with Scottish Ministers for installations, sites and facilities in Scotland)is satisfied that the NDA has discharged all its responsibilities in relation to thedecommissioning or cleaning-up of the installation or site.Waste HierarchyThe Waste Hierarchy encourages the adoption of options for managing waste in the followingorder of priority:• Waste should be prevented or reduced at source as far as possible• Where waste cannot be prevented, waste materials or products should be reused directly orrefurbished then reused• Waste materials should then be recycled or reprocessed into a form that allows them to bereclaimed as a secondary raw material• Where useful secondary materials cannot be reclaimed, the energy content of waste shouldbe recovered and used as a substitute for non-renewable energy resources• Only if waste cannot be prevented, reclaimed or recovered, should it be disposed of into theenvironment and this should only be undertaken in a controlled manner.RSRL IWS (Issue 5 – October 2012)122
