Arrangements for additional calls may be worked out by the shipper, carrier, and the requesting corridor state.

The projection will show all planned shipments of transuranic waste for the upcoming 12 months. Information on the shipments will include points of origin and destination, mode, and the number and type of packages.

This notification may consist of a single letter for all five shipments, provided that an accurate schedule for all five shipments has been determined prior to the first shipment. The following information will be included in the 14- day notifications for transuranic waste shipments:
