Waste Incineration at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory

The Waste Experimental Reduction Facility (WERF) Incinerator is located at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL) in Idaho Falls, Idaho. The primary mission of the incinerator is to provide mixed waste treatment until a demonstrated, more cost-effective commercial facility is available. The objective of this audit was to determine whether the Department operated the WERF Incinerator at the capacity permitted by the State of Idaho.
