This standard provides guidelines for incineration of
combustible forms of low-level radioactive waste. It addresses the
siting, licensing and permitting, operation and monitoring of the
incinerator operation, disposal of residues, and decontamination
and decommissioning. This standard may be applied to incineration
of mixed wastes (i.e., radioactive wastes that contain other
hazardous components as defined by federal or state agencies),
provided consideration is given to additional design features and
regulatory permitting required by the hazardous nature of the
wastes.

For purposes of this standard, incineration is considered a
treatment or volume-reduction technique rather than a disposal
mechanism. Other volume-reduction techniques have previously been
described, such as in "Solid Radioactive Waste Processing Systems
for Light Water Reactor Plants," ANSI/ANS 55.1-2009 (1992).
