This study considers the upgrades that would be necessary to extend the life of the Transuranic Waste Storage and Assay Facility (TRUSAF) for an additional 30 years. The study also considers cleanup and conversion of the canyon area of the building for storage of solid waste. The 224-T Building was constructed in the 1940s to support process operations of the T-Plant. The function of the facility has changed over the years, and at present the northern half of the building is used to store solid waste. This portion of the building is referred to as the TRUSAF. TRUSAF is one of only two onsite facilities licensed to receive and store solid TRU wastes. Original intentions were for TRUSAF to be used for TRU solid waste storage until the WRAP 1 Facility became operational.
