Book Description
This report is prepared for the East Tennessee Technology Park (formerly the Oak Ridge K-25 Site) (ETTP) in compliance with the ''Tennessee Hazardous Waste Reduction Act of 1990'' (THWRA) (TDEC 1990), Tennessee Code Annotated 68-212-306. Annually, THWRA requires a review of the site waste reduction plan, completion of summary waste reduction information as part of the site's annual hazardous waste reporting, and completion of an annual progress report analyzing and quantifying progress toward THWRA-required waste stream-specific reduction goals. This THWRA-required progress report provides information about ETTP's hazardous waste streams regulated under THWRA and waste reduction progress made in calendar year (CY) 2000. This progress report also documents the annual review of the site plan, ''Oak Ridge Operations Environmental Management and Enrichment Facilities (EMEF) Pollution Prevention Program Plan'', BJC/OR-306/R1 (Bechtel Jacobs Company 2000). In 1996, ETTP established new goal year ratios that extended the goal year to CY 1999 and targeted 50 percent waste stream-specific reduction goals. In CY 2000, these goals were extended to CY 2001 for all waste streams that generated waste in 2000. Of the 70 ETTP RCRA waste streams tracked in this report from base years as early as CY 1991, 50 waste streams met or exceeded their reduction goal based on the CY 2000 data.

Book Description
This report identified and evaluated potentially hazardous waste disposal sites at Arnold Engineering Development Center, Tenn. Records of past waste handlings and disposal practices at the facilities were reviewed. Interviews with past and present installations employees were conducted to develop a history of waste disposal practices. The environmental setting for the area for effectively receiving the wastes was evaluated including soils, geology, ground water and surface water. Twelve sites at the installation were found to have potential to create environmental contamination. These include a landfill/leaching area, a site with fire protection training/burning/landfill activities, retention reservoir/drainage area, landfill, leaching pit, chemical treatment pond, leach/burn area, testing area, an abandoned water treat-plant, and three surface drainage areas.
