Instructions for Completing NRC's Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment a draft NUREG, NUREG/BR-0204, Rev. 3, ``Instructions for Completing NRC's Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest.'' This document provides instructions to prepare NRC Form 540 (Uniform Low- Level Radioactive Waste Manifest (Shipping Paper)), NRC Form 541 (Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest (Container and Waste Description)), and NRC Form 542 (Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest (Manifest Index and Regional Compact Tabulation)). NRC Forms 540 and 541 must be prepared for low-level radioactive waste intended for ultimate disposal at a licensed low-level radioactive waste land disposal facility. NRC Form 542 is required only if processors and collectors of low-level radioactive waste are shipping low-level radioactive waste attributed to others for disposal at a licensed low- level radioactive waste land disposal facility.
