 The best concise answer to the disposal of Uranium Nitrate is to transfer 
the 
 material to a properly permitted treatment and disposal facility with both 
 EPA and Radioactive waste treatment permits authorizing the treatment of 
 mixed wastes. 
 
 At NSSI, Uranium and Thorium Nitrate compounds are chemically treated to 
 replace the Nitrate with other non oxidizer groups allowing the proper 
 disposal of the material as dry active waste.

Or 
you may ship it to Envirocare and they can treat and dispose the mixed waste.
