Section 606.10  Scope

This Part sets out standards applicable to facilities for the disposal of low-level radioactive wastes away from the point of generation.  These standards are in addition to the requirements specified in the rules of the Department of Nuclear Safety entitled "Licensing Requirements of Land Disposal of Radioactive Waste" (32 Ill. Adm. Code 601).  The development and operation of a disposal facility in compliance with the requirements of this Part and 32 Ill. Adm. Code 601 would reflect the best available management technologies which are economically reasonable, technologically feasible, and environmentally sound for the disposal of low-level radioactive waste as required by Section 6 of the Illinois Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management Act ( the Act) [420 ILCS 20].
