The radioactive waste manifest includes the NRC Form 540, shipping paper, NRC Form 541 (container and waste description), and the NRC Form 542 (processor / collector compact tabulation) as applicable. 3.1.3 Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest (UHWM) is the manifest document required with the radioactive waste manifest for shipments subject to hazardous and PCB regulations. 3.1.4 Hazardous Waste Report Management Method Codes- An alpha- numeric code used to signify treatment or land disposal on line 19 of the UHWM. 3.1.5 Waste Processor / Collector – an entity, operating under an NRC or Agreement State license, whose principal purpose is to process, repackage, or otherwise treat low-level radioactive material or radioactive waste generated by others prior to eventual transfer of radioactive waste to a licensed low-level radioactive waste land disposal facility. 3.1.6 Waste Package – The packaging together with its radioactive contents as presented for transport. 3.1.7 Special Nuclear Material (SNM) – Plutonium, uranium 233, uranium enriched in the isotope 233 or in the isotope 235 or, any material artificially enriched by any of the above isotopes but does not include Source Material. 3.1.8 Source Material – Uranium or Thorium, or any combination thereof, in any physical or chemical form or ores which contain by weight one-twentieth of one percent (0.05%) or more of uranium or thorium or any combination thereof. 3.1.9 11e. (2) - Mill tailing radioactive wastes produced as a result of extraction or concentration of uranium or thorium from any ore processed primarily for its source material content. This definition does not include residues from mining operations or chemical extraction processes. CL-SR-PR-041 Incoming Radioactive Waste Shipment Acceptance Revision 18 Non-Proprietary PAGE 5 OF 24 3.1.10 Approval To Export (ATE) – A written document, commonly identified as a “permit” or “petition”, issued by a Low-Level Radioactive Waste Compact or unaffiliated State, in which waste was originally generated prior to its transport out of the host Compact or State. The ATE authorizes the export of the waste from the host Compact or State for processing and/or disposal. An ATE is required by RML UT2300249 Condition 9.A for all low-level radioactive waste arriving for management at the Clive with an appropriate range of validity range that includes the date the waste left its original point of generation. Time-valid ATEs from the Compact or State of original generation are required for all Shipments received from waste processors and generators with waste that does not have a blanket approval from the compact. The Approved Export Applicants summary generated by the Central Compact is sufficient documentation for proof of an ATE. 3.2 Responsibilities 3.2.1 Manager, Shipping and Receiving (SRM), or designee, is responsible for the overall implementation of this procedure. The SRM is also responsible for ensuring that signed shipment forms are returned to the generator. The SRM is responsible for documenting compliance with reference 2.14 in accordance with the requirements of reference 2.18. 3.2.2 Radiation Safety Officer (RSO), or designee, has overall responsibility for the conditions in reference 2.1 and 2.2. 3.2.3 Radiation Safety Technicians (RST) is responsible for performing radiological surveys of incoming shipments to ensure dose and contamination requirements meet the requirements of 49 CFR. RSTs are also responsible for performing radiological surveys required by references 2.1 and 2.2. 3.2.4 Shipping and Receiving Coordinators are responsible for inspection and acceptance of radioactive waste shipments. 3.3 Precautions and Limitations 3.3.1 Safety • Caution shall be taken when opening the doors of a trailer or cargo container because the potential exists that contents were not properly braced and may fall. • Where practicable, radioactive materials packages shall be managed CL-SR-PR-041 Incoming Radioactive Waste Shipment Acceptance Revision 18 Non-Proprietary PAGE 6 OF 24 by mechanical means and/or with shielding to reduce potential exposures and injuries. • Individuals involved in unloading shall wear proper PPE and be alert to the movement of the forklifts, lifting gear, and other equipment. • No one shall work on or under transportation equipment without informing the driver (if power attached). • No individual shall ride or be on moving equipment other than in the designed operating or riding position of that equipment. • Care must be taken when placing equipment onto the bed of a trailer to assure that equipment does not fall from the bed of the trailer and that individuals are not injured while picking the equipment up. • Read and comply with the applicable Radiation Work Permit (RWP). 3.3.2 Compliance • For all waste types, accept incoming shipments in accordance with reference 2.1.
