Current Activities

Radioactive debris and waste is staged in roll-off boxes and within the building in preparation for off-site disposal of the material.  Waste profiles have been submitted and additional roll-off boxes are on the way.

Perimeter air monitoring is continuing and has documented the success of the engineering controls used to eliminate off-site migration.  The 'frisking' of crew members has shown the need for the personal protective equipment as some radioactive contamination has been found on suits, gloves, and masks.


Next Steps

The crews will continue to prepare the debris and other items for transportation and disposal.  The roll-off boxes will loaded and transported to a rail line and be shipped to the disposal facility in Utah.
