LOW-LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE
Nuclear Sources & Services, Inc. is a fully permitted RCRA Part B hazardous waste TSDF and one of the only three facilities in the United States providing storage and treatment of mixed hazardous and radioactive wastes. Since 1971, NSSI has supported the government, education, pharmaceutical, power generation, oil & gas, and aerospace sectors with our Low-Level Radioactive Waste services.
NSSI accepts a wide range of sources and gauges from various manufacturers (including transuranic and Special Nuclear Material) for disposal. NSSI’s established relationship with the Texas Compact Waste Facility and the Offsite Source Recovery Project ensures competitive pricing along with the comfort and knowledge that radioactive material will be handled safely, and appropriately. Further, material is properly disposed promptly and will not remain in storage indefinitely. NSSI can also accept sources from non-Texas Compact waste generators. NSSI’s trained Field Service Engineers can facilitate the removal, packaging, and transportation of gauges and sealed sources to the NSSI facility from anywhere in the United States. Additionally, our Field Service Engineers specialize in the repair and servicing of nuclear density and nuclear level gauges employed in the Oil and Gas, Coal, Paper, and various other industries. We are licensed to perform instrument installation, relocation, and initial gauge radiation surveys.
