Idaho waste program adapts to pandemic challenges, advances cleanup mission Fluor Idaho Bruno Zovi, Fluor Idaho waste disposal and waste generator services manager, inspects a waste shipment before it is loaded on a tractor trailer for disposal at an off-site facility. IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) – An Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Site program has adapted to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to ship waste out of the state in support of the 1995 Idaho Settlement Agreement. In the last year, Department of Energy Office of Environmental Management cleanup contractor Fluor Idaho’s waste generator services (WGS) program completed 82 off-site shipments of newly generated and stored low-level and mixed low-level radioactive waste, which includes contaminated debris, soils, sludges, salts, and liquids. In all, workers shipped about 530 cubic meters of waste offsite for permanent disposal — an amount equivalent to about 2,545 55-gallon drums.
