  • Low-level waste (LLW) includes radioactively contaminated protective clothing, tools, filters, rags, medical tubes, and many other items
  • Uranium mill tailings are the residues remaining after the processing of natural ore to extract uranium and thorium
  • The Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) develops and implements NRC policy for the regulation and safe management and disposal of spent fuel and HLW

  • Low-level waste (LLW) includes radioactively contaminated protective clothing, tools, filters, rags, medical tubes, and many other items
  • High-level waste (HLW) is "irradiated" or used nuclear reactor fuel
  • Uranium mill tailings are the residues remaining after the processing of natural ore to extract uranium and thorium

    • Waste incidental to reprocessing (WIR) refers to certain waste byproducts that result from reprocessing spent nuclear fuel, which the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has distinguished from high-level waste (described below)
     
    • High-level waste (HLW) is "irradiated" or used nuclear reactor fuel
     
    • Uranium mill tailings are the residues remaining after the processing of natural ore to extract uranium and thorium
     
     

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) does not regulate all sources of radioactivity; see Who Regulates Radioactive Materials and Radiation Exposure for detail
