DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Draft Waste Management Programmatic Environmental Impact 
Statement

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of Availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy (DOE) announces the availability of 
the Draft Waste Management Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement 
(PEIS) for public review and comment. The draft PEIS has been prepared 
in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental 
Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969; Council on Environmental Quality regulations 
implementing NEPA, 40 CFR Parts 1500-1508; and DOE NEPA Implementing 
Procedures, 10 CFR Part 1021. The draft PEIS evaluates waste management 
strategies and siting alternatives for each of five waste types: high-
level waste; transuranic waste; low-level waste; low-level mixed waste; 
and hazardous waste. The public is invited to comment on the draft PEIS 
during a 90-day public comment period, which starts on the date of this 
Notice.

ADDRESSES: Requests for information about and copies of the draft PEIS 
should be directed to: Center for Environmental Management Information, 
P.O. Box 23769, Washington, D.C. 20026-3769, 1-800-736-3282 or in 
Washington, D.C.: 202-863-5084.
    Written comments on the draft PEIS should be mailed to the 
following address: U.S. Department of Energy, Waste Management PEIS 
Comments, P.O. Box 3790, Gaithersburg, MD 20885-3790.

    Availability of the draft PEIS: Copies of the draft PEIS have been 
distributed to Federal, State, and local officials, as well as 
agencies, organizations and individuals who may be interested or 
affected. Copies of the draft PEIS and supporting technical reports are 
also available for public review at the locations listed at the end of 
this Notice.

DATES: The comment period on the draft PEIS will continue until 
December 21, 1995. Comments postmarked after that date will be 
considered to the extent practicable.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On October 22, 1990, DOE issued a Notice of Intent (55 FR 42633) to 
prepare the Environmental Restoration and Waste Management Programmatic 
Environmental Impact Statement. DOE identified the proposed action as 
follows: ``to formulate and implement an integrated environmental 
restoration and waste management program in a safe and environmentally 
sound manner and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and 
standards.'' The Notice of Intent identified two separate sets of 
alternatives to be evaluated, one for environmental restoration and one 
for waste management. The public comment period on the Notice of Intent 
extended from October 22, 1990 to February 19, 1991, with 23 public 
scoping meetings at various locations across the country.
    The availability of a draft Implementation Plan for the PEIS was 
announced on February 4, 1992 (57 FR 4193), and after six public 
workshops, the Plan was completed in January 1994 and made available to 
the public (59 FR 7990, February 17, 1994). Subsequently, DOE concluded 
that it would be inappropriate to make programmatic decisions regarding 
environmental restoration strategies because such cleanup decisions 
primarily reflect site- and/or project-specific conditions. The draft 
PEIS now considers DOE-wide management strategies for five types of 
radioactive and/or hazardous wastes and analyzes alternative sites at 
which the wastes could be managed in the future. This approach is 
consistent with the alternatives outlined for waste management in the 
PEIS Implementation Plan.

Alternatives Considered

    The draft PEIS evaluates treatment, storage and/or disposal 
alternatives for five types of radioactive and/or hazardous waste in 
DOE's existing inventory and waste to be generated from DOE's 
operations over the next twenty years. Due to the complexity and unique 
management requirements of each of the waste types, the draft PEIS 
contains separate analyses of each waste type as follows: High-level 
waste; transuranic waste; low-level waste; low-level mixed waste 
(containing radioactive and hazardous components); and hazardous waste.
    Four categories of management alternatives are considered. The No 
Action (status quo) alternative would provide a baseline for comparing 
other alternatives. The Decentralized alternatives would maintain waste 
management activities essentially at the sites of generation. The 
Regionalized alternatives would provide for fewer locations at which 
waste is managed, and the Centralized alternatives would consolidate 
waste management activities at one or two sites. Within each category, 
there are a number of subalternatives for each waste type. The 
alternatives analyzed for each waste type encompass the following 
activities.
     Storage of high-level waste;
     Treatment and storage of transuranic waste;
     Treatment and disposal of low-level and low-level mixed 
waste; and
     Treatment of hazardous waste.

Preferred Alternatives

    The draft PEIS identifies DOE's preferred management alternatives 
for three of the five waste types, as follows:
     The No Action (status quo) alternative is preferred for 
the treatment of hazardous wastes, which would continue the extensive 
use of commercial facilities for non-wastewater hazardous waste and on-
site treatment of hazardous wastewater at DOE sites.
     DOE prefers to continue to store high-level waste on-site 
at the Hanford site, Idaho National Engineering Laboratory, and the 
Savannah River site, pending disposal in a geologic repository. This 
preferred alternative can be accommodated under either the No Action, 
Decentralized, or Regionalized alternatives. DOE does not yet have a 
preference as to where West Valley Demonstration Project high-level 
waste, once vitrified, will be stored, pending disposal in a geologic 
repository.
     The Regionalist Alternatives are preferred for low-level 
mixed waste treatment because they most closely approximate DOE's 
proposed Site Treatment Plans, under the Federal Facility Compliance 
Act. However, ongoing negotiations with regulatory authorities 
regarding the proposed Site Treatment Plans may affect this preference.

Invitation To Comment

    The public is invited to submit written and oral comments on any or 
all portions of the draft PEIS. Example topics on which DOE welcomes 
comments include: the technical adequacy of the document; what 
alternatives DOE should select upon completion of the document; and 
what criteria DOE should use in making these selections.
    DOE will hold a series of eleven public hearings according to the 
schedule provided at the end of this section. In general, these 
meetings will be supported by a televideo link with DOE Headquarters in 
Washington, D.C. This approach will allow DOE Headquarters officials to 
efficiently participate in the meetings in an interactive forum with 
the public. The session format will provide for collection of written 
and oral comments and will enable the public to discuss issues and 
concerns with DOE managers. Participants who wish to speak at the 
hearings are asked to register in advance by calling the following 
toll-free number: 1-800-736-3282. Requests to speak that have not been 
submitted prior to the hearings will be handled in the order in which 
they are received during the meetings. DOE's responses to comments 
received during the public comment period will be presented in the 
final PEIS.
