ExchangeMonitor Announces New Pre-Conference at the 2019 RadWaste Summit
The 2019 RadWaste Summit will focus on the full spectrum of commercial and federal radioactive waste management, including U.S. Department of Energy, Department of Defense, Army Corps, utilities, disposal and treatment vendors, and more.
ROCKVILLE, Md., June 3, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The 2019 RadWaste Summit has announced the addition of a pre-conference workshop which will explore Decision-making Tools for Waste Disposal. The workshop will take place the morning of September 3, prior to the start of the full Summit that afternoon.
ExchangeMonitor has partnered with representatives from the Department of Energy Office of Environmental Management (EM) to create the agenda for the pre-conference workshop, which will focus on the developing methodology for determining on-site versus off-site costs associated with packaging, transportation, and disposal for EM generated wastes.
The methodology can provide DOE and its prime contractors with a tool that facilitates or enhances decision-making for disposition of low-level and mixed low-level waste streams using either on-site or off-site disposal capabilities (or a combination). The Energy Facility Contractors Group (EFCOG) Waste Management Working Group (WMWG) has been tasked with development of this template/model. Members of WMWG will discuss their scope, progress, and path forward.
The full Summit will address a variety of topics, including the federal budget as we approach an election year, regulatory updates, new procurement initiatives, new and innovative technologies, and more. You can check out the full agenda here.
"As we planned our 13th annual RadWaste Summit, we realized the depth of relevant industry material lent itself to an additional, specialized workshop," said Nancy Berlin, Program Manager, RadWaste Summit. "We are thrilled to introduce this option to our attendees as a way to enrich and strengthen their experience at the Summit."
Of the course of three days, more than 350 industry and government attendees will come together to discuss the challenges and solutions to the management and disposition of radioactive waste. It's the must-attend event for waste managers, program managers, environmental specialists, the c-suite, scientists and more to network, get high-level updates and connect on business opportunities.
The 2019 RadWaste Summit will take place September 3-5 at the Green Valley Ranch Resort in Henderson, NV. With hundreds of expected attendees and several high-profile sponsors and exhibitors already secured, including Deep Isolation, I.C.E. Service Group, Inc., Jacobs, PacTec, Peterson Incorporated, TransCo Products Inc., UniTech Services Group, and Veolia, the RadWaste Summit is a can't-miss event.
