Emphasis i s placed on LLMW and TRU TRUM waste because i t will require processing and storage a t Hanford SolTd Waste's Central Waste Complex (CWC) p r i o r t o final disposal. The LLW will generally be sent directly t o disposal. The volume data was collected from onsite and offsite waste generators who currently s h i p or plan t o s h i p solid waste t o the Hanford Site.The volumes described i n detail are low-level mixed waste (LLMW) andThe total baseline volume of LLMW and TRU TRUM waste expected t o be received a t the CWC over the next 30 years i s Torecasted t o be over 235,560 cubic meters. Based on ranges provided by the waste generators, this baseline volume could fluctuate between a minimum of 203,690 cubic meters and a maximum of 260,500 cubic meters. The range is primarily due t o uncertaint i e s associated w i t h the Tank Waste Remediation System (TWRS) program. Uncertainties include the retrieval of the long-length equipment, scheduling, and tank retrieval technologies. ..The data reported i n this document estab1ish.a starting p o i n t for solid I t i s recognized that forecast estimates w i 11 waste management and planning. vary as f a c i l i t y planning and missions are more clearly defined.

Some details on low-level waste and hazardous waste are also provided.Currently, this site is reporting data current as of 9/96, The data represent a life cycle forecast covering all reported activities from FY97 through the end of each program's life cycle.There is some useful information about the structure of this report in the SWIFl Report Web Site Ovcrvicw Contents Annual Waste Class VolumesThe majority of waste is forecast for the period 1997 through 2030, during which time many generators expect to complete their waste-generating activities. The general increase in waste from 2008 to the peak in 2014 is largely a result of tank retrieval and cleanout activities within the TWRS program.The large amount of HELD waste (shown at the left side of the chart) arises from the Storcd Equipmcnt generator. This represents waste that exists, but for which no shipping schedule has been developed.Minimum and maximum estimates for the waste track fairly consistently with the baseline waste estimates. For 2014 -the peak year in baseline waste generation, the baseline estimate is 4,720 m3, with a maximum estimate of 6,800 m3 and a minimum estimate of 2,510 m3.SU...

Executive SummaryThe main purpose of this report is to ensure consistency in the use of internal, external, and effective storage volumes of waste containers commonly used for shipment of waste on the Hanford Site. This report provides treatment, storage, and disposal volumes for drums, boxes, long-length equipment containers, and other containers. Footprint areas are also provided.For accounting purposes, it is convenient to express storage volumes in drum equivalents. The drum equivalent of a container is defined as the number of standard 208-liter drums that would he displaced if that container were stored in a building instead of the standard drums. Drum equivalents range from 0.444 for 30-and 61-liter drums to 222 for the larger long-length equipment containers.The containers discussed herein are identified from the Hanford specifications used to procure containers used for the storage or disposal of waste.
