Supplement Analysis for New Treatment and/or Disposal Facilities and an Additional Accepted Waste Type
DOE prepared this Supplement Analysis (SA) to evaluate whether the existing Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant Final Environmental Assessment for Disposition of Waste and Materials (DOE/EA-2116) remains adequate or whether the addition of two new treatment and/or disposal facilities and an additional accepted waste type for a previously analyzed treatment and disposal facility requires DOE to prepare a new EA, revise the existing FONSI, or prepare an EIS. The facilities include additional potential treatment and/or disposal facilities and includes 1,2-dichlorotetrafluoroethane (referred to as R-114) as an accepted waste type for a previously analyzed treatment facility for waste generated, managed, and shipped from the Paducah Site.
