Community relations and uranium enrichment in Louisiana
Description
Louisiana Energy Services (L-E-S) will build the nation's first privately owned enrichment plant at the Claiborne Enrichment Center in Louisiana using centrifuge enrichment technology to separate physically uranium 238 from uranium 235. The waste will contain depleted uranium fluoride DUF6 that still contains approximately 40 percent of its original U235. It will be stored in 300 cylinders a year at the Claiborne Enrichment Center. There will be about 16,000 pounds of low level waste, which consists of the usual paper, clothing and wipes. In addition there will be about 1,500 pounds of activated carbon and 1,850 pounds of ventilation filters annually
