Portsmouth Decommissioning and Decontamination (D&D) Project Director's Final Findings and Order defines the steps for identifying a range of technical alternatives for the D&D and waste disposition components of the project, and reaching formal decisions on how best to proceed using a CERCLA framework. The steps include developing viable alternative, evaluating and comparing them, gaining public feedback on the range of alternatives, selecting a final approach, and formalizing the decisions; and then defining the downstream regulatory requirements for successful implementation of the selected D&D and waste disposition remedial actions.
