The Fiscal Year 2002 Tank Characterization Technical Sampling Basis and Waste Information Requirements Document (TSB-WED) has the following purposes: To identify and integrate sampling and analysis needs for fiscal year (FY) 2002 and beyond. To describe the overall drivers that require characterization information and to document their source. To describe the process for identifying, prioritizing, and weighting issues that require characterization information to resolve. To define the method for determining sampling priorities and to present the sampling priorities on a tank-by-tank basis. To define how the characterization program is going to satisfy the drivers, close issues, and report progress. To describe deliverables and acceptance criteria for characterization deliverables Characterization information is required to maintain regulatory compliance, perform operations and maintenance, resolve safety issues, and prepare for disposal of waste. Commitments connected with these requirements are derived from the Hanford Facility Agreement and Consent Order (Ecology et al. 1996), also known as the Tri-Party Agreement (TPA), Hanford Facility Agreement and Consent Order Change Control Form M-44-97-03 (Ecology et al. 1997). and other requirement sources described in Section 3.0 of this document. The information contained in this TSB-WED reflects ongoing planning and current understanding of characterization information needs to resolve the issues listed in this TSB-WIRD. Since baseline requirements are subject to revision, the information contained herein may not exactly reflect baselines or sampling schedules published at a later date.
