D.
Methods for Minimizing Waste
Ask attendees for reasons and
1.
Minimize waste generation
methods.
Confine operations: Confine operations

with radioactive materials to as small an
area as possible.
Minimize materials: Minimize materials
b.
introduced into radioactive material
handling areas.
Segregate: Segregate clean materials from
c.
radioactive materials. Do not dispose of
clean materials in radioactive waste
containers.
Good housekeeping: Contamination
