[SNIP]
>analysis include: (1) on-site chemical treatment of CWM with off-site

>another disposal method; (2) on-site chemical treatment and on-site
>destruction/disposal of chemical treatment wastes (3) on-site thermal
>destruction; (4) off-site chemical treatment and/or thermal destruction

>SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

>Background
>
> The Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production,
>Stockpiling, and Use of the Chemical Weapons and on Their Destruction,
>or Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), requires the destruction of all
>CWM. T
[SNIP]
> Buried CWM can be dated back to World War I. The practice of
>burying leaking or obsolete CWM in the past was an acceptable method of
>disposal. Often burial was accompanied by draining and decontamination.
>Therefore, the CWM is responsible for destroying all other CWM (called
>non-stockpile) within the United States and its territories.
