It is the only incinerator in the Department of Energy (Department) that is permitted to treat TSCA-regulated, radioactively contaminated polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) waste. The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Department operated the TSCA Incinerator at the capacity permitted by the State of Tennessee.
