Radioactive Waste Acceptance Program (RWAP)
The mission of the Radioactive Waste Acceptance Program is to facilitate the management of radioactive waste in a safe and compliant manner
ensuring the integrity of the Nevada Test Site disposal operations while maintaining the protection of the public, the workers, and the environment.
Approval to ship waste to the Nevada Test Site is granted only after the waste generator demonstrates compliance with Nevada Test Site Waste Acceptance
Criteria. The criteria consist of specific requirements for waste form, characterization, packaging, and transportation. RWAP personnel provide
assistance, interpretation, guidance, and technical expertise on waste acceptance criteria. Program personnel are also responsible for conducting
on-site audits to ensure waste generator compliance with regulations regarding the management and transportation of radioactive waste.
