2 Informational Briefing Radioactive Waste Transportation Notifications Define the hazard Types of radioactive waste in transport Notification of transport Preparedness effort around radioactive waste
3 Defining the Hazard Basic Radiation Radiation is a general term that can be used to describe the transfer of energy through space away from a source. Ionizing radiation is radiation with enough energy so that during an interaction with an atom, it can remove tightly bound electrons from the orbit of an atom, causing the atom to become charged or ionized.
4 Defining the Hazard Alpha radiation Beta radiation Neutron radiation Gamma radiation
5 Defining the Hazard
6 Defining the Hazard Medial problems take priority over radiological concerns Adhere to basic protective actions: Time Distance Shielding Prevent the spread of radioactive materials
7 What s on the Road? Types of Radioactive Materials Waste Category 1 Quantities Category 2 Quantities Transuranic (TRU) waste
8 Radioactive Materials Category 1 Quantities A quantity of radioactive material meeting or exceeding the category 1 threshold in Table 1 in Appendix A of NRC: 10 CFR 37. Category 1 quantities of radioactive material do not include the radioactive material contained in any fuel assembly, subassembly, fuel rod, or fuel pellet.
9 Radioactive Materials Category 2 Quantities A quantity of radioactive material meeting or exceeding the category 2 threshold but less than the category 1 threshold in Table 1 in Appendix A of NRC: 10 CFR 37. Category 2 quantities of radioactive material do not include the radioactive material contained in any fuel assembly, subassembly, fuel rod, or fuel pellet.
10 10 CFR 37: Appendix A
11 Radioactive Materials Transuranic (TRU) waste Material contaminated with transuranic, radioactive elements, such as neptunium, plutonium, americium. Have atomic numbers higher than uranium in the periodic table of elements. Primarily produced from recycling spent fuel or using plutonium to fabricate nuclear weapons.
12 How are notifications received? Category 1 & 2 Shipments Jurisdictions along shipment route should receive notification and TLETS (Texas Law Enforcement Telecommunication System). TRU Waste (WIPP) Jurisdictions along shipment route should receive notification and TLETS (Texas Law Enforcement Telecommunication System). Jurisdictions are sent a 2 hour notice, entering the state, and exiting the state.
