14 WASTE CONFINEMENT AND MANAGEMENT EVALUATION 14.1 Conduct of Review

(SAR) (Pacific Gas and Electric Company, 2004) provides information about the waste confinement and disposal systems that are a part of the facility. This review specifically focused on radioactive wastes that would be generated by site activities involving the handling and storage of spent nuclear fuel (SNF). These activities may produce (i) gaseous wastes, (ii) liquid wastes, and (iii) solid or solidified wastes during loading and unloading of the multi-purpose canister (MPC-HB). Neither the actual SNF nor the waste generated by the Humboldt Bay Power Plant (HBPP) falls within the scope of this review. The review objective for this chapter is to determine whether the ISFSI design and procedures provide safe confinement and management of radioactive waste generated from ISFSI operations. The review considered how the SAR and related documents address the regulator
