Description

The Waste Isolation Plant (WIPP) is a US Department of Energy facility intended to demonstrate the technical and operational principles involved in the permanent isolation and disposal of defense-generated transuranic waste. WIPP operations entail receiving, unloading, and transferring radioactive-mixed waste from the surface of the site to the underground hazardous waste management units. Waste will be emplaced in an underground geologic repository horizon located in a deep-bedded salt formation. This report contains Part A of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act hazardous waste permit application
