TRU waste i s shipped f rom o t h e r SWD f a c i l i t i e s , where they can be s to red f i v e con ta ine rs h igh . These f a c i l i t i e s have t h e i r own CSERs, and the l i m i t i n g c r i t e r i a f o r s torage are t h e same as f o r WRAP I . s t o r i n g con ta ine rs on l y t h r e e con ta ine rs h igh.
