RE: Transportation Reference Documents
I thought I heard that DOE was not given funds to continue to support
LowTrack and the MIMS effort. Can anyone add anything here?

Low-Track Summary
The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Inventory Management System (Low-Track©) is
designed to help states, compact regions, and generators of low-level
radioactive waste (LLW) maintain inventories of that waste, create manifests
to ship the waste, and maintain records of the waste as it goes through
waste consolidation operations. The software was designed to allow for three
modes of data population, file transfer, two-dimensional bar codes, and
manual inventory input. The system is correlated with the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC) uniform manifest to help with the national
thrust to maintain an inventory of LLW in the United States among
generators, processors, storage, and disposal facilities. The system is
supported by Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory under
the direction of the U.S. Department of Energy.
Low-Track© is designed to assist tracking of low-level radioactive waste at
a facility. Once key information about the waste container is loaded, the
database module is designed to:
- Maintain inventory locations at the waste package level,
- Maintain inventory volumes for pre-processed waste,
- Retain the history of individual waste packages through waste
consolidation or bulking,
- Develop and print manifests, and
- Create reports.
Low-Track has been designed for portability and is capable of being
maintained on a laptop computer. Information can easily be transferred
between personal computers in the office and field. The software is driven
by a graphical user interface, you simply select an activity and then follow
the cursor and on-screen prompts to fill-in the information or complete the
desired action.
