Origin of Wastes in C-200 series Single Shell Tanks [SST]

Description

A review of historical documents was conducted to determine the origin of wastes transferred into Hanford site tanks 241-C-201 through 241-C-204. Metal waste from the B-Plant was originally transferred into these tanks from 11/1947 to 01/1948 and then subsequently removed from 03/1953 to 01/1955. Waste from pilot-scale testing of the PUREX process at the Hot Semi-works was transferred into these tanks from 05/1955 to 11/1956 and subsequently removed in 1970, leaving a sludge heel
