Statistical aspects of compliance with the WAPS radionuclide release specification
Description
The paper discusses various statistical aspects of complying with the Waste Acceptance Preliminary Specifications (WAPS) radionuclide release specification, including: (1) interpretation of the 95%/95% criterion in WAPS 1.3.2, (2) use of 95%/95% upper tolerance limits for demonstrating compliance, (3) the level of sampling and leach testing of the production waste form required to demonstrate compliance with WAPS 1.3.2 using an optimal strategy, and (4) alternative approaches for demonstrating compliance that do not require extensive sampling and leach testing of the final production waste form. 4 refs., 11 tabs
