3Bears staff performed a review of characterization data for varied containers that had been initially identified as transuranic or indeterminate.
These containers included drums, boxes, and ISO containers that had contents exhibiting dose rates varying from 10-20 mrem/hr. up to
approximately 1000 rem/hr. All containers had transuranic radionuclides in the radiological inventory. Initial review of the data, the
measurement processes, and key assumptions provided a roadmap for development and deployment of follow-up characterization and
measurement processes that were able to further divide these containers into TRU and LLW/LLMW categories. Waste packages that were
characterized as LLW/LLMW based on reviews and characterization process improvements were dispositioned offsite to the disposal facility.
