MOUND LABORATORY CONTAMINATED WASTE INVENTORY SYSTEM

With the advent of tighter security on all nuclear material--both on site and during site-tosite transporting--a unit control system was devised for Mound Laboratory's nuclear waste material. Mound Laboratory is a licensed contractor to the ERDA and handles all types of SS material and compounds. One of the major problems with any nuclear site is disposal of its waste. This system provides a unit identification technique for all SS material waste containers. The data capture system will provide intermediate, periodic data reports, control to minimize nuclear material diversion, a standard shipment manifest to national storage sites, and 20-year retrievable life of all data for an audit trail of all inventoried containers.
