NRC Form 542 and continuation Form
542A were developed by NRC at the request of low-level waste
industry groups. These forms are completed by waste collectors or
processors. Tracking the identity of waste generators become
complicated when the waste forms, dimension, or packaging are
changed by the waste processor. All waste generators are listed on
NRC Forms 542 and 542A.
