NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED• Final LoC: presents information on commissioning of the waste packaging plantalong with documentation to demonstrate that the action points from earliersubmissions have been closed out.6.1 Radioactive Wastes200. The inventory of radioactive waste at Harwell is given in Annex 1 and a summary of thevolumes expected to be generated is given below.Waste Type Volume (m 3 )HLW 0ILW 2,788*LLW 10,115LLW to Landfill 24,148* includes 169.5m 3 packaged ILW201. The total ILW volume has increased slightly from the March 2012 IWS following a reviewof Concrete Lined Drums undertaken as part of the NM transfers and the reassessment oflegacy sludges.202. The overall strategy for radioactive wastes is treatment as necessary to allow removalfrom the site. This will largely be achieved by disposal via authorised disposal routes orconversion to a passively safe state for long term storage on-site prior to disposal to theGDF.203. The Clearance and Exemption Code of Practice has been produced to identify andfacilitate good practice within the nuclear industry regarding the clearance and sentencing ofarticles, substances and wastes which may or may not require disposal as radioactivewaste. The Code of Practice has been developed and agreed by representatives from thenuclear industry and the Harwell site has established and maintains arrangements to complywith the code.6.1.1 High Level Waste204. There is no high level waste on the Harwell site.6.1.2 Intermediate Level Waste205. Estimates of current stocks and future arisings of ILW are given below. Strategies forILW and their status are also summarised. They are either:• Operational: Strategy agreed and being implemented or• Reference: Selected as the current preferred strategy against which other strategiescan be comparedRSRL IWS (Issue 5 – October 2012)60
