Disposal of Radioactive Residuals Requires Careful Planning
Radionuclides removed from source waters during water treatment become concentrated in residual liquids and sludges. Disposal options suggested in the US Environmental Protection Agency draft guiance for liquid wastes that contain radioactivity are summarized. Options include direct discharge to surface waters or sanitary sewers and deep well injection. Federal, State, and local rules may apply to utilities seeking to dispose of residuals that contain radionuclides. Characterizing the wastes to be disposed of will define the disposal requirements that must be met.
