Download or read book Best Practices for Risk-Informed Decision Making Regarding Contaminated Sites written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-07-21 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management's (EM) mission is the safe cleanup of sites associated with the government-led development of nuclear weapons and nuclear energy. While many of these legacy sites have completed cleanup, the largest and most complex sites have not been fully remediated. The cleanup of these sites is proceeding under legally enforceable agreements with timelines for hundreds of milestones. EM is reviewing alternative approaches to increase effectiveness and improve cost efficiencies of its cleanup activities, especially for sites that will have residual contamination when active cleanup is complete. This report is the summary of two workshops convened in October 2013 and January 2014 on best practices for risk-informed remedy selection, closure, and post-closure control of radioactive and chemically contaminated sites that present significant difficulty for remediation to unrestricted release. The workshop series aimed to explore best practices that promote effective, risk-informed decision making and future opportunities to improve remediation approaches and practices.In the Workshop #1 section of Best Practices for Risk-Informed Decision Making Regarding Contaminated Sites, the report examines holistic approaches for remediating sites with multiple contaminant sources and post-closure uses, and approaches for incorporating a sustainability framework into decision making regarding site remediation, closure, and post-closure control. In Workshop #2, the report focuses on post-closure controls, assessment of long-term performance of site remedies, and best practices for risk-based remediation decisions.

Download or read book Geological and Hydrological Factors for Siting Hazardous Or Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Facilities (Classic Reprint) written by Richard C. Berg and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geological and Hydrological Factors for Siting Hazardous or Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Facilities This report (1) identifies criteria important to the siting of a HW or llrw disposal facility and recom mends geological and hydrological guidelines and re strictions for siting such a facility, (2) justifies the im portance of geological and hydrological criteria with regard to site performance, and (3) discusses methods of investigation for site selection and characterization. This document emphasizes aspects of siting not ade quately discussed in the literature, such as the design of a geological characterization program and regional and site-specific geomorphic aspects of facility siting. It is designed to help state and local officials under stand the complexities of geology and hydrology in the siting process. More importantly, it provides those responsible for site selection and characterization with a checklist of items that must be considered and under stood to ensure that an environmentally safe site is selected, one in which the potential for contamination to underlying groundwater resources is low and the potential disruption of the site by natural causes is minimal. Although this report specifically addresses the selection and characterization of sites for HW or llrw disposal, the methodology and procedures presented here also could be applied to the siting of municipal landfills and other waste storage facilities; they could aid also in the siting of industries that are high generators of chemicals or waste products. For the first time, a detailed discussion of the ele ments necessary to conduct a regional geological and hydrological investigation is presented. The need for a regional approach to siting was discussed by Kempton, Berg, and Soller They mentioned that the procedure has not been widely used, partly because its methods for extrapolating data are not commonly accepted by those called upon to deal with site-specific problems that require the rapid gathering and interpretation of geological and hydrological data. However, to understand and interpret site-specific hy drogeological data, the regional geological framework must first be constructed. This significantly improves the ability of siting investigators to predict the occur rence and distribution of aquifers and helps in deter mining local and regional groundwater flow systems.

This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the President's decision in January 2010 to withdraw the license application for a geologic repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, the Secretary of Energy established the Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future (BRC) to consider alternatives to the nation's current institutional arrangements for management and disposition of used fuel and defense high-level nuclear waste. In February 2012, the BRC issued its final report. Among its recommendations was a call for a new, single purpose organization to be established to replace the Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management (OCRWM) in the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) that had been established under the authority of the 1982 Nuclear Waste Policy Act. The BRC suggested that a congressionally chartered federal corporation offers the most promising model, but the commission left open the possibility of alternative concepts to achieve the desired ends. In response to this recommendation, DOE asked the RAND Corporation to examine alternative organizational models for such a new management and disposition organization (MDO). Our study supports the work of DOE's Office of Nuclear Energy and the Management and Disposition Working Group(MDWG) formed to consider implementation options and activities.

This book was released on 2024-09-27 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Consumer Protection and Behaviour in Energy Markets provides a comprehensive study of consumer protection and consumer behaviour in selected jurisdictions worldwide. Each chapter is written by experts and provides a contemporary overview of national consumer protection and policy developments in the energy sector. Today energy has become an essential factor in ensuring the socio-economic development of any country and improving the quality of life of society and is now an essential element of life for everyone. The energy market has become a competitive market, based on the assumption that generation and sale of energy is not a natural monopoly and that market mechanisms, in particular competition between energy companies, are the best way to reduce prices and improve customer service. The purchase of energy is inextricably linked with its distribution from the producer to the purchaser. The book shows that well-functioning energy markets need informed and well protected consumers, who can benefit from competition and transparent offers. They are free to choose the most competitive providers, and know their rights, with access to effective means of redress. Given that the energy market has a specific, technical nature, the book analyses the energy market within the scope of free market principles, with a focus on the protection of the weaker party to the contract: the consumer. In addition, consumers can also play an active part of the clean energy transition.
